-y RO M THr' SALT. AMFRtC AN.' sit duct ten and Pacific at ton cf the Insurrection cfths Grand Anse CHaytiJ By capt. Martin, ' of the schr. Sterling,-of tills port, -arrived from Jeremie, we learn the final reduction cf the insurrection -which (tinder Count Goman, one of Christophe's nobles) has so long desolated that fair portion of the Republic of Haytl. This insurrection, - vhich broke out in 1807, immediately after the destruction of the soidistant emperor Dessalines, was undertaken by his partisans, to avenge his death, and persevered in ever since with unabated fury and -various success. It produced a powerful diversion in favor of Christophe, who succoured it from time to time with such means as lie could cpare from his own immediate defence. The numerous expeditions -sent against it by President Pe. tion, had, from various causes, failed of success, and left the insurgents in lull possession of the inexpugnable strong hold of the interior, from whence they issued forth at their pleasure, carrying destruction and death wherever they went in the course of its ravages not a village or seaport on a coast of 60 leagues in extent had escaped a temporary possession and pillage ny those brigands. The firmness ofthepeaceat)le part of the inhabitants, aid:d by the power tul means which the President Boyer has employed against them, has at length put an end to this horrki state of things. An event of this nature cannot, it is presumed, be viewed without some interest by the commercial part of this community, who formerly carried on n extensive trade to the quarter in question, and this inter. Cot must augment when we consider the present circumscribed bounds of our trade to the West Indies. It will be recollected, that this quarter, agreeably to otlidal documents, shipped in 37$9, the astonishing quantity cf upwards of 30 millions of produce, principally coiTee; and though, since that epoch, things bave much declined, the first arrondissement in the Republic having only produced about 6 millions of coffee last year, yet it will assist our readers in form. ng a true estimate of the relalive importance of this fertile quarter to inform them, that the present crop of 18 20 will not in cotlee and cocoa J be less than five millions, with every prospect of an annual augmentation, which may be calculated on with certainty, from its superiority over every other in the Republic as well as it respect the industrious habits of the planters and cultivators as the nature of its soil and climate, and the great number of new plantations now under cultivation. Possessing such ample means for carrying on foreign trade, it will hardly be believed that not a single American or other foreign vessel, regularly frequents thepjrts of the Grande An?.
TCapt. M. informs us that the first object which antsted his attention, on his arrival at Jeremie, was the exposure or the heads of sixteen of the ringleaders of the insurrection, placed on pikes in a public part of the own.J South America and Old Spain', An article has been published in several or the London papers, and republished in this country, the purport of which -is, that the Provisional Junta of Spain were about to dispatch commissioners to South Ameria, with instructions for restor--ing peace to those countries; that hopes were entertained that the new republics were not indisposed to unite under the constitutional monarchy, and that the American delegates in London had often declared it. Luis Lopez Mendez one cf the delegates above referred to, hzs contradicted the article, in a note addressed to the editor of the London Globe. He declares the above assertion to be totally destitute of truth, and to have originated from the enemies of the cause of- Soutli American independence. He; goes on to show, that the ccttes, when in power, were equally as hostile to their cause as the sovereign himself; that they sent a body of 13,000 troops against them; obstinately refused to listen to the prcposilsof the deputies from South America; twice refused the mediation proposed by the Eiglish government; refused 'to prohibit the slave trade, &c. Mendez alludes to the constancy with which the South Americans have for ten years maintained their cause, and declares positively, that lt is utterly impossible for the South American independent governments ever again to submit to the yoke of Spain." Eoit. Pat. LATE FROM BUENOS AY RES. new vork, May 26. A friend has handed us the following valuable information, which he received by the brig Hersiiia, in 55 days from Buenos Ayres. 1 he treaty of peace which he has favored us with, is in the hands ot our translator, Daily Adv. Extract cf a Utter from Buenx Ayres, to a house in this city dated March 15 per the Her :iliay at Stonington. 44 You will no doubt oblige the American public, by giving them a translation of the enclosed articles of peace, concluded between Buenos Ayres and the confederated provinces of Entre Rios, Santa Fe, &c. Our intercourse with the interior is now completely restored, and the restriction which was put on the exportation of provisions is taken off, and free exportation is permitted, giving the usual bond not to go to an enemy's port, Sarratea is novf at the had of this government, and we trust he will be able, by his wise and upright admisistratton of affairs, to conciliate all parties, and promote tle happiness and prosperity of the country. There is no question
nowtiut that of our Intercourse with the interior vmII be-- free: our exports cheaper, and i-m-ports more-demanded, with a reduction of duties." We have translated the following preliminary to the treaty of peace: "Convention had and concluded between De Sarratea, governor of the provinces-of i5venos Ayres, D. LstanislaoLope?, governor of Santa lc and DFrancisco Ramirez, governor of Entre Rios, the 23d day cf February, in the year of our Lcrd 1820, for the purpose of terminating the war which had broken out between the said provinces, making provision for their permanent security, and concentrating their forces and resources, in one federal government; lor which object, the
following articles have been agreed upon, FURTHER ACCOUNTS FROM BUENOS AYRES. Communicated for the Bah. Pat. The happy changes at Buenos Ayres are confirmed by recent details in litters and public papers to the 17th of hist March, received in town by the hte arrival at New London, Con. Mr. Sarratea w,is elected x governor of Buenos Ayres, not as a capital, tvUt a a Province; for, to the great satisfaction of the people, federation has been proclaimed. Te have a printed copy of the convention to this effect, entered into by the different Provinces, which contains twelve articles of a very ' interesting nature,-' and shall be given to the public as soon as translated. A body of representatives is already sitting to carry into execution that agreement. Antonio Escalada, the father-in-law to gen. San Martin, is acting as one of the members of that body; the general, it is said, having withdrawn in - time from assisting the criminal plans of Fueyrredon's ambition. The escape of this man to the 'Portugue-c, with a large sum of money, and the flight of hie Secretary, Fayle, have been al--ready noticed. Now, we are further informed that his first clerk in the office of the Sccretary of State, Julicn Alvarez, & also Cornelius Saivedra, Col. Juan Ramon Bilcarce, Diaz Vclez, and the merchant Ambrosio Lezica, who had made an immense fortune by favor and monopoly, secretly fled to the Portuguese, after attempting on the 6th of March a counterrevolution without success. And though, a letter says, justice cannot reach them in their dishonorable asylum, the truth of the old saying would be accomplished, that treason is courted; but traitors are always despised. All is going smooth and quiet to a settlement. The factions are no longer able to oppose, with noise and violence, the progress of truth, - and the exertions of reason in the people. It is announced that gen. Carrera would have been on his way to Chili on the 20th of March, to assume an important station there, in reward for his perseverance and scrvic
