Inc me PACKER oarque CnanceHor, ,uptdih Dchu-
vols, arrived yesterday from Buenos Ayres, whence
she sailed on The 23I of September. We are IN
debted to the polteness of Captain Baior the early
receipt of our dispatches. 49,,


The Chancellor was nun ashore in coming into
port, by what is called an NJ p, singular sort of
pilot, recently started into existence IN this city.


The intelligence received by this arrival is I'M
portant not only to those engaged IN trade with the
Argentine Republic, but TO the whole American peo.
pie to all those. more especially, who endorse the
message OF Mr.. Polk, relative to the " balance Of
power in America Il is 10 be perceived that the
English and French have carried their interference
in the affairs this contlnentto crisis, actually
blockadng Buenos Ayres, and all other ports be-
longing TO the Argentine confederation.


On the 2lst of September, two days before the
Chancellor sailed, the commanding officers OF the
English and French squadrons, posted bulletin in
the commercial room, IN Buenos Ayres, declaring
that port, and all others belonging to the republic,
under blockade after the 24th that all vessels
irving after that date should be ordered off, and
all neutral vessels In port should have fifteen days TO
discharge and load. Should the biockading squad
ron allow no more than the fifteen days. il would be
impossible tor the ships in port, eleven OF which
were American, TO load, for the decree that Rosas
had issued fortnight previous, compelled all the
inhabitants to drill from to p. M, which lessen
ed the hours of labor after the Custom House closes
in the afternoon


The measure will be of serious injury to the
American merchants. There are several vessels
now on their way from this port to Buenos Ayres
with full cargoes; they, of course, viii have 10
change their destination, perhaps at sreat loss
Other vessels on their way from other ports
in this country; all these will be ordered OIL, al Il
loss to their owners Will it not be necessary for
government TO increase our naval force IN that
vicinity!


The annexed official document will be of interest
Just at this moment The first Is probably rendered
null and void by the blockade.
