A Lima Gazette Extraordinau was received
yesterdayi containing some important military
information from the head-quarters of the Colom-
bian and Peruvian United Liberating Army. By
these ad vices it will be seen that it was not Gen.
Sucre who defeated Olaneta. On the approach
of Sucre, the Spanish troops opposed to him either
deserted or dwindled away without a struggle;
while Olaneta havitig fled to the nuighbourhood
of the La Plata provinces, was attacked and de-
stroyed by a party of the independent natives,
as has been already stated. Meanwhile, another
division of the U►ited Army was assembled un-
der the command of Bolivar at Magdalena, with-
in a few leagues of Lima, where lie was left at
the date of the last dispatches, A vigorous at-
tack upon the fortress of Callao had been or-
dered, and no doubt was entertained of its speedy
surrender.

An expedition appears to have been lately fit-
ted out in this country for the ose of the Mexi-
can Governmenywriicli it to'bi jorneed by ;a'uothe'r.

Tuesday last for Vera Cruz, with the intention,
as it is said, of first touching at New York, where
she will be joined by the American part of the
expedition, after falling in with a ship of larger
force from Sweden, and with two 46-gun frigates.
The first object of this squadron is to cut off
the communication between Cuba and St. Juan
d'Ulloa ; and by so doing compel it to surrender
for want of provisions. Its ulterior object is,
however, we understand, an attack upon the Ila-
vannah, where a considerable party has been
formed in favour of independence. The Surat
Castle is commanded by Captain Smith, the ne-
phew of Sir Sydney Smith, and the Offieers and
crew are all British.—(lbid.)

[MORNING CHRONICLE.]
The supply of Money Stock from the Royal
Exchange Assurance Company had a considerable
effect on the prices of stock yesterday. Consols
for Account were 008 and 91, and for Money the
price was per cent. lower. The Market was
exceedingly heavy. In the Foreign Funds there
was UHICII bustle, particularly in South Ameri-
can. Very extensive sellers appeared at an early
hour, and Colombian Bonds fell nearly two per
cent., the others also gave way considerably ;
the reports were very numerous, and, as usual,
alarming and foolish—a Colombian Loan—a Re-
volution—lturhide alive in Mexico—the won-
drous news brought by a passenger in the New
York packet ship, arrived off Cork. All these
rumours were without the slightest foundation.
The fact appeared to be, that when Messrs.
B. A. Goldschmidt and Co. contracted for the
Colombian Loan, there were other offers made
by a capitalist of some eminence, and in the
course of the uegociation he conceived himself
ill-used, and that an undue preference had been
given to the actual contractor. Under these cir-
cumstances the disappointed party sent out a
whole history of the transactions to Bogota,
which has given rise to some unpleasant discus-
sions. In the Stocks of Continental Europe,
there was little or no alteration. In Shares, the
business was confined to the llaytien Company,
which fell to 11 and 1 premium. The other
Shares were also generally heavy, owing, no,
doubt, to the general dullness of the Money''
Market.
