I, being separated from the Onvernment, Bolivar determined to

every Peruvian was set at liberty, and festered to his home
before I gave up the command. I maintained this without

TO Tne KISISTER or was.
_

A• I wi►ed yesterday without my !keret:try. he having been
taken ill nn the road, I addressed myself directly to your Excel.
lency. I last night received the communications of your Excel-
Icney up in the 30th of lest month. by which I have Icarnt the dis-
lodgment of the expedition of Anna, and the suspicions that were
entertained against the S'ice Admiral of Pcru.t

As the brig Dorsett, under Capt. Coro, has anivel on the asst
of ['mind:ace, with the object of lending assistance to the party of
Rive Aguero, there is nut the least doubt tind hopes arc still enter.
tented of keeping that party alive, which appeared almost extinct.
Consequently, I have dictated measures for securing the teasels of
Pena anti Colombia, which might be mucked by the partisans of
Rica Aguero, or by the Spanish squadron, consisting of four mil,
of which I have been informed by the Captain of the Port of Cal-
lao, and by en original letter received from his Excellency. the
President of the Republic. The eonittiut.i.ationa of yesterday have
not failed to produce a very diam:reeable imprestion upon me : th-y
show me that °bustles are multiplying on every side to the liberty
of Pena. The expedition of Chili is dispersed, and even returned
to its country. Santa Cruz and his partizans entertain very sinister
ideas ; Guise the same. The &elute of Lima are makingt, great
progress In Cant, and Iluarochiri. The expnaition of !Jeerers
sufficiently manifests the Royalist party that predominates in Litita
in the most extraordinary manner.

1 .
Finally, the combination of yesterday's news is horrible, and
scarcely leaves me any hors of a favourable result to be wrested
from misfortune even by tune ; every thing threatens ruin in this
country. IVnilst I advance towards the North the South falls into
confusion ; and when I return to :he South I ant certain this part
of the North will inevitably be thrown auto the utmost shame:et. be.
cause Peru lies heroine the eamp of Argemant, where no cans is
understood. Whatever direction I take. I meet with opposition.
%The would hive conceived that the party of Rasa Aguero shottld
be able to recruit accomplices by the attraction of an infamous pies
of treia6n ? Vet such Is t lit situation of things. It is my opinion.
that if the gen ernment does not establish terrible measures against
the royalists and against factious individuals, that l'eru will be the
victim of its own clemency. The ueders of the government upon
Kiva Aguero, and his atleomplices, are very just. and very much
to the point, and ought to be rigorously complied with . besides. I
ant of opinion that the same orders should he extended to the other
accomplices of Lima, either of Rive Aguene's party, or that of
the Spaniards. The government should demand front the Congresa
terrible laws against conspirators, of whatever party they may be ;
and the government should cause these laws to be executed with in.
refereble rigour. Pero is undermined by her enemies, and only a
countermine can save her. I do not venture to dictate nth cures
which I judge salutary, because I am not • Peruvian; and every
thing Ido is attributed to Colombia, and sinister views. Let the
relation of Ilerrera speak few itrelf, which declares that the contri.
butions create enemies to Colombia, as if the Contributions were for
the use of Colombia alone, and did not belong to the expenses of
Peru and its authorities. lkfore now I have repeated !bat I wished
that the government of Peru would iucur the odium which would
fall on me for these strong measures, and that I would do the feat.
In proof of which, I have taken charge of this civil war, which ter.
tainly has been attended with its share of odium and calumny ; but
it was my duty to take charge of it, in order to save this country.
Thanks to Cod ! it has had a fortunate and speedy result ; Mot
there will certainly b.: a reaction if strong caustics are not applied
to the gangrene that this domestic war has l'ft. To der ruy the
ruble and factious Guerrillas, the banana Verges alice.ilel Mme.
mustily march from Callao towards Canto, to be .eplacod lay the
battalion of Rio de la Plata or Chili, or be both, for the bet,rc
striation of of the Castles. Let Colonel l'ordero take the co lunette' of
the guerrillas of the Sierra, against Xauja and Pasco; and let eri ry
assistance be given him fat the subsist-woe and m memento of his
troops, or ample orders to supply himself wherever he may be.
In tide way the parties of Mama% lOasw;les, Caere.., and
Vidal. will be destroyed, and the opponents of %%liar will be si.
kneed: who, on account of the hatred which is borne to iiiiii in the
I country, have been found by Ninarvilea the opponents of ligiti.
mate Government. I always thought that Mancebo and l'illar
were bad men, and prejudicial to the country. If Colonel Corder°
does not lied subsistence foe his battalion, let him scour the coun-
try to Calatamba, and leave the force necessary to maintain order.
From flustioehiri some troops of the line trim Chili should proceed
with the same object, which would also prevent the destruction of
the (Milian in the climate of the coast. It is incredible how neces-
sary it is to throw ail our army amongst the mountains, to accent° ii
them to march, and to the climate of the country which is to be the
scene of war. lin the sante account I ardently desire that all the
troops of Chili, which may arrive on the coast of Pent, should
move towards the mountains in any way and in any direction. Af-
terwards, they can be reunited and segsnised in the best way possi-
ble, and most convenient. By this operation the salvation of the
Chilies' troops will lie obtained, and an expense saved the Govern.
meet which it is not able to sustain on account of its prevent rate
of penury. As to Messrs. Santa Crux and Guise, the Government
will take such measures as will be dictated by their wisdom ; for my
part. I shall won be in Truxillo, front winch place I can CO4IIIIIII-
- to the tiorernment whatever occurs to me upon these aml
other subjects of nmelt imporuutce. Refute terminating thisollisial

stinste; that they are In this city in a most lamenteble state on ac-

tempt to improve it as far as lays in my power. Within six days I
shall be in Trumilo. and there I shall dictate measures to regulate
every thing according to the views of the Congress and the Govern.
meet. The preenotion of General La Fuente has appeared se me
just and proper, on account of his reel conduct in itch critical

particulars of the execution will, we hope, interest our readers:
A t four in the rimming they were guarded to the Wherry-wherf
by the Sheriff's offietna, and a detachment of the 92d regimes&

devoutly, and ountinutal, with redoubled energy, their appeal to the
mercy of their Creator, when they beheld the heal Mae Wigeik
waft to close the bloody tragedy they had so long acted.
J. J. Ihumarette, a good-luoking youth, not yet straitens, welsh
bitterly. He said that his asaociatia had persuaded hint try join bas
famine with theirs; and that he did not know whit they were
till they bad committed the Crimes fur which be was about to suffer
with them. We are informed, by a respectable gentleman who
conversed with this y • nth in gaol, diet he deckled himself to be
the son of respectable pareetti,from ethein he had absconded ; and
that, after wandering about some time, he fell in with his fellow.
culprits, who were one of those gsege of lawleaa ruffians who have
an tong perpetrated their atrthitics in the seas of the 11'eet Indies.
Not having any mode of obtaining his subsistence. and either Ls-
able or unwilling to return til the friends he had deserted, he el-
lowed himself to be seduced to join this piratical crew, and to
participate in those crimes for perpetrating which they all suffered •
an ignominious deaf:. -the well-merited weed of theirdireful deeds..
Just before this ere:, :led youth ascended the scaffold, lie requested
a draught of water. say thae it was the last thing he should require
in this world. A few 'torments before the drop tell, hi. countenance
depicted the extrentesi agony : his eyes were raised to heaves, and

audibly. He was a man advanced in years, and his countenaree
strongly pourtrayed the *retch familiar with, ant recklcaa of guilt.

arose, not Instri the inapt:leo of sudden rage, or temptation, but
from the deliberate suggestions of a mind hardened in guilt fro=
a long traffic in blast and murder. Indeed, never did we before
view a countenance so hellish ; not that his features were ill famed.
but because the general expression Irasparticulat4 diabolical. His
last words were to the executioner, whom he cursed as be drew the
cap ovg his eyes, saying to I • , " (hi to hell."

Hernandez and Nueriego, when suspended, struggled viulentfy.
They evidently parted with existence in great agony; their consul.
sions continued long after those of their fellow culprits had ceased.
The rattling in their throats, and the evident gasps for brat,
almost induced us to coitsider that they were not destitute of sena.-
thin. The superstitions part of the spectators, as usual. attributed
this accidental difference in the death of those pirates, front that of
the others, to a judgment on them ea the actual munleters. Thu

J. M. de los Santos also confessed its guilt, but strenuaus:y as-
