Her Majesty's Government have this morning re-
ceived despatches from Monte Video, announcing a
revolution in Peru, having for its objects the dissolution
of the Peru-Bolivian confederation, and the deposition
of General SANTA CRUZ from the Protectorate. The
first movement took place in Lima on the 29th of
July, and was headed by Generals ORBEGOSO and
NIETO, the former SANTA CRUZ'S Vicegerent in the
North. The despatches were brought by the brig Fame
in seventy days from Monte Video, having been conveyed
in seventeen days from Lima overland to that port,
which they reached the day before the sailing of the
vessel. The Captain having received orders to for-
ward the despatches by the nearest Post-office, in or-
der to prevent any delay, posted them in Dublin,
whence they were conveyed Express to Downing-
street. The following extract from a Buenos Ayres
Journal of the 9th of September contains the only
particulars which have yet transpired relative to this
latest of the numerous revolutions which are constantly
occurring in the South American States. No virtue
on the part of a people can withstand the demoralizing
effects of such perpetual appeals to arms against the
operation of self-appointed government :
Our peaceful city was thrown into considerable excitement,
on Thursday evening last, by the simultaneous discharge of
artillery from the fort, and the ringing of merry peals by the
bells of all the churches, and later by the sound of festive
music, and the letting off of fire-works in different quarters. It
was soon ascertained that this unusual demonstration of re-
joicing was in consequence of important intelligence received
by express from Chili, in 17 days. The Gaceta Mercantil of
yesterday morning gives the full particulars. It appears that on
the 29th of July a revolution took place in the capital of Lima,
against General Santa Cruz, and what is more, was headed by
his Vicegerent in the North, and former accomplice in the
dismemberment of Peru, General Orbegoso, assisted by
General Nieto and his division of 1,500 men, lately arrived
from Huacho. The independence of Peru, the dissolution of
the styled Peru-Bolivian Confederation, and the deposition of
General Santa Cruz from the Protectorate, was solemnly pro-
claimed amidst the most emphatic demonstrations of public
enthusiasm. The President Orbegoso then sent a flag of
truce to Callao, demanding the submission of Generals Miller
and Moran, who were stationed there with some 1,800 men.
Up to the 30th it was not known what determination they
would take ; General Millar had closed himself in the Castle
with 600 men, and General Moran, with 1,200, had gone to
Chorillos. General Nieto, with a force of 2,000 superior
troops, had in the mean time taken up a position between
Lima and Callao. This movement is said to have been effected
in concert with the Commander of the Chilian blockading
squadron, Commodore Postigo.
The expedition from Chili, which had been detained by
calling at Coquimbo for the purpose of taking in some more
infantry and horses, would, it was confidently expected, arrive
off Callao at farthest on the 6th ult. Meanwhile General
Santa Cruz was in Bolivia, busily employed in gathering money.
The blockade of Buenos Ayres, and the whole of the
Mexican coast, was continued with increased vigilance
on the part of France. The Mexican authorities,
however, manifested no disposition of being frightened
into an accommodation. The inconvenience and in-
jury of the blockade to foreign merchants, and espe-
cially to British residents, was very great, notwith-
standing that they had no want of courtesy, as far
as regarded themselves personally, to complain of on
the part of the officers of the blockading squadron.

The Times and the Post have published in Second
Editions the following account of an insurrection at
Seville, the particulars of which reached Lisbon on the
20th inst., and were conveyed by the Royal Tar
steamer to Falmouth :
" A revolution had broken out at Seville, and the General
in command, San Llorente, narrowly escaped being murdered I
The National Guard had assembled and established a Junta of
Reprisalias, appointing a person named Fuentecilla their com-
mander, and the Financial Intendento, political chief. A
message was then despatched to the Captain-General of the
Province of the Andalusias, the Count de Cleonard, requiring
his instant resignation, or a premium would be offered for his
apprehension, dead or alive. The Count, without deigning to
reply, immediately headed his troops against the place, and
it is supposed would be joined by General San Llorente from
Seville."

So long as Spanish insurrections only endanger the
lives of Spanish Governors and Generals, the Duke
DE FRIAS and his colleagues will trouble themselves
very little about them, provided they can command a
majority in the Chambers. The Spanish Cabinet has
neither the will nor the ability to give peace to the
Peninsula ; and, what is still more more de-
plorable, materials for the composition of a really
efficient and patriotic adminjgration are hardly
to be found in the circle of Spiwish Legislators and
Generals known in England. The only untried person
from whom any thing good can be hoped is OLO-
ZAGA, who still appears to retain the confidence of
the Liberal party. As a last remedy we should be
glad to see a trial made of a
