From the Tro S-ntinel. Canal Trade. As there are no arrivals nor departures to be noticed to day, under the head of "Canal Navigation," we insert instead thereof, the following statement, gathered from the Collector's books and furnished us by a friend at West Trov. During the month of October, 712 boats arrived at and departed from Troy. During the same period 3000 tons of merchandiz , were carried away by boats that took their entire loading at Troy, besides a large piantitv taken by boats that were partly loaded at Albany. In this statement of the amount of merchandize, a very large amount of valuable articles in trade, such as provisions, salt, castings, and all articles of domestic manufacture, arc not included. The precise (juantity of these articles is not ascertained, but may be safely estimated at about 2000 tons, making the whole quantity of goods, wares amf merchandize taken from Troy, in two
! months, at least 5000 tons.

Gibraltar, for the generous exciuou,
ter of thanks, Capt. Sturt says, "Pen at the same time, to observe that tho. forts originated in a sense of duty, v we conceive the ties of consanguinity friendship, so happily existing betw ee two independent nations, render i: tiveand compulsory; and, in conse of the flattering way in which you thought proper to notice our exe and eulogise our conduct, must be at. ted more to partiality and congenial ; ment than to either merit or desert; particularly as we feel confident Amei would, with equal promptitude, e and perseverance, have acted towar English ship, similarly circumstance we did towards yours. We therefor der this persuasion, do not conceivt selves entitled to any particular no applause, and can only receive the sa tory testimonial of your approbation, mark of esteem and friendship from a , pic identified with ourselves, and post ing, in a high degree, those principles honor, rectitude and liberality, which . the prominent features of a great nati as well as the characteristics of a bra and generous people, through the influence of wliich, gentlemen, you and your consul have been led to view our exertions with too partial an eye, and extolled far above what we conceive they merit.' This manifests a spirit which every one mut wish to be encouraged. A rivalry, either in arts or arms, should not prevent a more generous emulation to excel in acts of humanity. JSifcs.

FROM BUENOS AYRKS and CHILI. Capt. Bancroft, of the ship Georgian, lately arrived at Philadelphia, from Buenos Ay res, gave the following information: The deputies from most of the provinces of Rio de la Plata had been elected, seve
ral of whom had been received at Bue ios!
Ay res, and the General Congress it was supposed would assemble in November. A salute was fired a day previous to the sailing of the Georgian, on the receipt of the news of the victory of Junin, gained by the cavalry of Gen. Bolivar. The country was considerably disturbed by the Pampos Indians, in consequence of which, travelling in the interior was rendered extremely dangerous; but the government was making preparations to send a somewhat formidable expedition against them, notwithstanding they had been unfortunate in two former ones. News had been received of some trifling advantages having been gained over the Indians. A revolution took place at Mendoza, in favor of the republican party, in July ; previous to that, the partisans of monarchy had united in deceiving the ignorant, under the pretext that their religion was in danger, and they had succeeded so far as to put a stop to schools and every thing connected with the improvement of the mind, vvhcii the fortunate revolution took place througjji the exertions of the young men, and sono of the aged, who were of more liberal Jews. In Chili, things had taken a favorable turn. The liberal party are decidedly triumphant. The bishop, who had always been opposed to the revolution, has been banished, and even the pope's nuncio has become a liberal, having been gained over to the popular party. In consequence of this, lie is making great reformations in the church on both sides of the Andes, curtailing the number offcast days, and secularizing the friars, as fast as possible.
