CHILI.

This Government, desiring to cOntinuc: its co-operation in the
liberation of Peru, and to put an end to the malignant reports winch
our enemies have spread on account of the return of the second ex.
pedition—seeking moreover to manifest the invariable persuasion
entertained by this Government, and by every Chilian, that the
war of Peru is the war of Chili, not ml t through a consideration
of its safety, but because the glory whi :h has remitted to Chili,
from having been the first to undertake t, would be destroyed if
lightly or capriciously we abandoned the held at the moment when
our aid is required promptly to termi. ute the war, and desiring
above all to give proofs of the unlimited crnfidence and feelings of
admiration and gratitude which we enter lain towards the Liberator
of Colombia for his heroic services in the cause of independence.
and for having undertaken the direction of the most cnmplicated
and difficult war that all America lies preatrind ; for th,se consi-
derations we have agreed and decreed as follows :
" 1. All the vessels of the squadron shall he placed in a state
ofaervire, to set sail under the comi, and of Vice-Admiral Don

campment, with the purpose of impro►ing their discipline, in.
creasing their force, and becoming tit to give aid to the Liberator

PERU.
PROCLAMATION.
"Peruvians !—The campaign which is to complete your liberty
has commenced under the 'omit favourablo auspices. The army of'
General Cantarac has received a mortal blow at Junin, having lost,
in consequence of that success, a third of its force and all its morale.
The Spaniards ay in consternatimi, abandoning the unit fenne
provinces, while General Olaneta occupies Upper Peru with an •
army of true patriots and protectors of liberty.
" Peruvians !—Two great enemies attack the Spaniards of Pent
—the united army, and the army of the brave Olaneta, which,
rendered dcspetate by Spanish tyranny, has ahaken oil' the yoke,
and combats with the greatest resolution the enemies of America
and its own. General Olaneta and his illustrious companions are
worthy of American gratitude, and 1 considt-r them as emirently
well deserving, and our creditors for the greatest reward.. Thus
Peru and all America should recognize in Goaeral Olaneta one of
its liberators.
" Perut-iar.s !—Very soon we shall visit tt•e cradle of the Peru-
vian Empire and the Temple of the Sun. (*users shall enjoy, in
the find days of its liberty, more pleasure and more glory than under
the golden reign of its Incas. " BOLIVAR.
