The brig A'spasia, Massicott, ar rived at this port on Saturday Irorr iiio de Janeiro, whence she sailed on the 2ScJ August The editors ol the American are indebted to the po litrness of Captain M. for files ol Rio papers to the 20th inclusive He states that the negotiations on the subject of peace were daily proceeding between the Buenos Ayrean Deputies and the government at l(i o, which it was universally believed, would result in the conclusion of peace between the belligerents.— Matters had so far advanced that the Buenos Ayrean prisoners confined at Rio had'been released from prison, and enjoyed the privilege ol moving at will within the capiial.

The following letter, subsequent Iv received, luily corroborates the foregoing intelligence:

Not having room to insert this decree at full length, we shall give an abbreviated view of its import and provisions.—The preamble exhibits the following as the reasons by which he has been actuated in establishing his arbitrary government in acoun ry recently under a republican system —That a convention having been called by Congress, in obedience to the general wish of the country, and having declared in conformity with the public voice, the incompeten •y ot the constitution, but having unsolved without being able to elct the desired relormationj and whereas the people have plaeed their

country in his hanis, that he nu^ a it an a a re as it is not lawful for him to abandon her —he has determined to exercise the supreme power as Liberator lreM* dent, and publishes the Organic decree. i•
