That she demanded all the rights belonging to the queen of England. hat before *?he was in possession of all her dignities, she could not listen to any oilier proposal. 'That when she was restored to them, she would he ready to listen to any proposals from his majesty's ministers." The majority in the House of Lords, in favor of Lord Liverpool's motion fox the appointment of a se? crect committee to investigate the con duct of the Queeu, was 79. The question for a postponement of proceedings in the House of Com ihous, was carried unanimously. The following are the names of c1 the committee appointed to examine into the affairs of the Queen: ? The Archbishop of Canterbury, the Lord Chancellor, the Lord President, the Duke of Beaufort, Marquis of Lansdowne, Marquis of Bucking ham, c.arl of Liverpool, Earl Beau champ, , -Lord Viscount Sidmouth, ilishop of London, Lord Redesdale, Lord Erskine, and the Earl of Lau derdale. It will be seen that Her Majesty I has been received with great atten- I tiou by tin; people ? and from the I spirit they have manifested, we I shoutd infer, that, w hether Her Ma- I jeslyHs guilty or not, an attempt of I the> government to proceedi^M^xtremi- I ties with her, would well nigtPpfo Iduce a revolution. Ever since the Queen's arrival in I London, that metropolis has been ] the theatre of perpetual riot. All 1 w ho would not huzza and pull off I their hats in . honor of her 'Majesty, I were pelted with mud, Inickrhats I &.c. &c. and often, after having corn- I plied #ith the requisition, they were 1 pelted with mud for th& diversion I of the mob. Carlton House was as- I sailed, and the windows of Lord ] Sulmouth's a ltd Lord CastlereaghVl houses* ami others, broken to pieces. I 't he military were on tluty, but the ! king had given orders not to tafce ] hostile measures for defence, unless 1 in i he extreme cases of absolute ?e- I cessity. V 1 T ho following extracts contain the 1 particulars of the visit qf Mr. Hrou- j gham and Lord Hutchinson, with 1 propositions from the government, to I the Queen* before she left Fiancefor J England?the promptitude and spirit I with which she rejected the proposi- I lions? -and Jiie d< termination which I 4ie instantly formed, and carried in- I to effect, of meeting the government I ill the capital.

Head Quarters at L'ar&ccas, Juiie 12, .1820 - NEW-YOKK, JULY 17* From Buenos-Ayre* papers received at the Othce of the Daily Advertiser. A Descrijuion oj the Province of Lucrio* *iijres. It is situated between 33 degrees, and ?0 minutes, and 41 degrees, south latit .de; and between 99 de grees 7 minutes, and 69 degrees it> minutes west, from the meridian of Paris . Its greatest length from nort It to south is ?02 leagues, counting on the meridian 05 dt grees ; ant] its breadth from east to west is HO leagues, 35 degrees 31 minutes on the parallel of latitude. It contains about 13,798 square leagues. It has, for its boundaries, the pro vince of Cordova, and of Santa Fe, on the north ; the western part of the province of Cuyo, on the west; ihe Kio Negro, on the south; this Atlantic, on the south-east; the Ri ver-tle-lii-Pl. ti, on the east; and, the Parana, on the north-east. Buenos Ay res is the most maratimo of the provinces ? it is half surroun ded by the waters of the Sea, of tho Hiver-de4 t-Pla|f, and of the Para na. It is a vast plain, on Which the traveller at first can discover only an unchanging uniformity of feature ? when, however, it is observed with in ore attention, some small irregulari ties in the surface ,are discovered, which form a succession of hills and vallies : where are to be seen the nu merous herds of black cattle, and immense flocks of sheep, feeding in the extensive meadows, with which the country abounds, and which form the principal value of (he province* 'Tow ards the southern extremities are the Sheepfolds of la Vantand and Ouamini. The want of rivers is undoubtedly caused by the small inclination of the meadows and their u;reat extent, in which hardly a rock is to be seen. The great quantity of water which falls on 13,978 squaro leagues durftig the long and topious winter rains, stagnate and form, par ticularly towards Ute western part, a great nutabfer of lakes and ponds. While in the distant parts of tho |n*ovince frequently not a tree is visi ble quite to the horizon ? little woods are met with here/ The writer of the article from which this article is extracted; hints at the internal improvements which may be effected by taking advantage of the facilities afforded by the uni form surface of the country and the abundant supplies of water in some parts of it, by partially drawing tha ponds, lakes aud rivers, and water ing those parts which are rendered useless by the want of moisture. ? He promises that societies should 1)0 formed for this purpose, and tlunks . that the conveniences of travelling might be increased; and facilities for carrying on many branches of me chanical^ labour might be - afforded, at the same time that some portiohs of the country might he. deprived of a superfluity of water and others supplied with the only thing which is wanting to render them fertile.
