The bark R. H. Douglas, at this port from Rio de Janeiro, brings copies of letters received there, from Montevideo, from which we make the following extracts. The commercial advices from Rio, received by the R. H. Douglass, are three days later than our previous accounts, and represent the markets to be without any change worth noting.
Montevideo, Nov. 11, 1840.
Since our last the convention agreed on between the Buenos Ayres Government and the French, has been duly ratified by the House of Representatives of Buenos Ayres, and the port of Buenos Ayres has been declared open. Upwards of one hundred sail of vessels immediately proceeded up. Our dates from there, are to the 8th instant, at which time shippers declined chartering vessels, as no launches could be procured. This difficulty, however, will soon be obviated. Few or no sales were making there, and some time will elapse before business again gets settled and confidence restored, of which there is but little prospect until either the Federal or Unitarian party shall be put down.—Baltimore Patriot.
