Much excitement had been caused at Valparaiso
by the arrival there of a Spanish war steamer,
which anchored without saluting. It was supposed
that she had brought a demand on Chili, but no
particulars had transpired.
Business at Valparaiso was dull, the high rate of
exchange, which was quoted at 47d. to 47id. per
dollar, having stopped transactions, especially in
copper avid nitrate. The export of wheat continued,
a large remaining.

A revolution has broken out in Peru, which is
stated to be of formidable appearance for the Go-

vernment of Lima.

On the 28th Colonel Prado, the prefect of
Areguipa, aided by the chief officers of the troops in
that city, numbering 1,000 men, began the move-
ment by a public declaration that General Peget
had ceased to be chief of the Republic by his viola-
tion of the constitution and laws of the country in
having concluded a treaty in January last with the
Spanish Admiral. All were invited to join this
movement and to place at the head.of the Govern-
ment the person legitimately entitled to the pre-
sidency.

The port of Eslay immediately followed the
movement, and Colonel Gamio arrived from
Areguipa and gave orders to clear the custom-house
at a discount of 50 per cent. on the duties. This
realised $70,000, and possession was likewise ob-
tained of $BO,OOO more sent by the Government in
one of the Peruvian ships for the payment of the
troops.

On the Ist ult. a similar proclamation was re-
sponded to in Moquequa, and on the sth the troops
in Tacua joined. Arica fell in also, and, under the
influence of Montero, two vessels of the Peruvian
fleet were handed over to the newly self-constituted
authorities. The Government steamer Chalaco was
despatched from Callao to Arica before the out-
break, and it was supposed that she had sided with
Montero. An attempt at a rising was made at Bella
Vista, near Callao, which was put down with con-
siderable loss of life. On the evening of the sth
Admiral Mariatequi, the naval commander of the
Peruvian fleet, proceeded with three frigates to re-
capture Eslay and Arica, and to put down the
revolution.

Much anxiety existed in Lima and many changes
were being made. All the military and civil officials
had been inspected and dismissed. It was said that
General Costella had been sent to the Sandwich
Islands.

The British ships Sutlej and Alert were at
Callao.

A revolution against the State Government at
Panama broke out on the 9th. The President,
Culanche, abandoned his post, and took refuge
in the United States Consulate. The com-
mander of the national forces was arrested.
The captain of the troops supported the Govern-
ment, but neither officers nor men stood by him.
