1t seems that within the last faw months some
disturbances have arisen between two or three OF
the independent States of South America, which
have resulted in actual hostilIties. The Repub.
lie of La Plata was one of the parties to the war,
and it seems, from the most reliable intelligence,
that the British and French commanders of yes
sells in that quarter; hare taken possession of The
naraI force of BUesOs Ayres, the capitol of La
Plata. In addition to this, one of the chiefs in
command had been warned by the British and
French 10 retire from before Montevideo. The
Washington Union comments with just severity
upon this high,handed measure. It is not known
that any of the rights or interests of the United
States have been directly infringed by Ibis move
ment; but we agree with the Union that g en-
croachments of this character-armed interferen-
ces by European powers in the affairs of this con-
tinent- -cannot be noted too early, nor ffowned
upon too s:ernly, nor repressed loo soon.n. The
balance ofipower claimed by the French Minis
ter, M Guizot idoessn exist on this Continent,
and never will exist awiththe consent of.thc peo.
pie Of the United States We shall doubtless soon


get more news in relation TO this movement. :,
