SouTH Ameaica. By the Materosa, a vessel from the river Plata and Rio de Janeiro, 
arrived at Mazerine, in Cornwall, letters have.been received from Buenos Ayres, bearing the 
date of 16th August last: By them we learn, that the terms of the proclamation of the new 
Viceroy, Cisneros, respecting the admission of ships into Riode la Plata, had been rigidly 
enforced. Several vessels under English and Portuguese colours, had appeared in the tiver, 
both with cargoes and in ballast, but were all refuse i aimission, and consequently could nei- 
ther discharge nor be allowed to load; they were ordered away within twenty-four hours, 
with an assurance, that without a licence from the mother country, it would be impossible 
to have leave to enter. This species of commercial probibition, will doubtless prove highly 
injurious to such persons as have sent out cargoes expressly assorted for the South Americaa 
markets, but we trust that the number of this description of speculators is very small, Ar- 
ticles of South American produce, generally speaking, bear good prices in our markets, and 
meet with a ready sale. -Pernambucca cotton fetches from 2s. 34. to Qs. 63d.5 thac of Ma-
