On September 8, 1852, Gen. Urquiza left Buenos Ayres to attend the inau- guration of this Congress; buat on the lith an insurrection broke out in the city of Buenos Ayres, which expelled from that city and province the civil and military authorities a; ited by Urquiza. In this state of tnings, in lience to the instructions of the President of the United States, about the 20th of Nuvember, I left Buenos | Ayres for Paraguay, and continued sbeent till April, 1853. I then learned by the official papers of the | provisional gevernn evt of Buenos Ayres, that about ptember lat, 1852, a counter revolution, sustained i by the ulation of the rural districts of the pro- | vince, headed by Col. Lagos, had the | city of Buenos Ayres, and demande the expulsion of the existing auttorities; that two or three months afterwards the Sapreme Provisional Director had marched upon Buenos Ayres, with an additional force from the Upper Provinces, and had taken com- mand of the besieging forces. On arriving, I found the city in a close state of siege, being surrounded by the lines of the egers,from the river on its northern boundary, to same river ou the south, so that all communication with the country by land was entirely cut off. Commodore McKeever, com- Tanding the United States squadron on that station, was then present in Buenos Ayres. Tne United States ship Jamestown, Capt. Downing, was then at anchor in the outer roads, and had been for many months. A few days after my arrival, I waa inform- ed by Commodore McKeever* that notice of a block- ade of the port, by authority of the Provisional Di- rector, had been served upon him as commander of the United States naval forces, and that he had sig- nified his rec: of the legality of the measure, and his intention to respect it. Soon after, Commo- dore McKeever left Buenos Ayres for Montevideo, and from thence ed in the United States ship Congresa to the United States, via Rio, leav- ing Captain Downing as senior officer upon the station. During May and June it was a subject of general conversetion in the city that the i party wero engaged in negotiations with Admiral Coo, then commanding the blockading forces, which it was supposed would result in the defection of that offi- cer from the authority under which he held his again in your presence without such a rebuke as the pro- Pagator of slander de-orves.
