weather was very fine. Cholera prevailed, but not so
seriously as in the States. Trade was dull.
Lima papers of May 30 describe all as being quiet in
Peru. The attempted revolutions in Bolivia have also
proved failures.
Advices of July 2, from Buenos Ayres, run thus :
" The projected armistice we alluded to in our last was
established on the 24th ult., at 3 P.M. The status quo
is to be preserved by both parties. and hostilities cannot
be renewed without twenty-four hours' notice.
" The nominal French blockade of the Oriental ports
was raised simultaneously with the establishment of the
armistice.

The following law regarding the abolition of duties
on the Isthmus of Panama. was passed by the Senate
and House of Representatives in Bogota, on the 22d
May last :
"On and after Ist January, 1850, the customhouse
duties, the government monopolies of tobacco and
alcohol, will be removed entirely.
" The Provincial Legislature of Panama shall not be
allowed after that date to impose any tax or duty on
personal effects or baggage of any person crossing from
one sea to the other. Such articles as are intended for
Consumption on the Isthmus. however, are not to come
under this rule, nor is the right of exacting passports
to be done away with; these can be exacted from each
person or head of a family, at a charge not exceeding
16 Hale.

" Tobacco grown on the Isthmus will remain subject
to a tax of 50 rials per quintal, when it is introduced for
consumption in any other province. This duty will be
collected as long as the monopoly exists in other parts of
the Republie.

"Foi. ign merchandise for the Isthmus of Panama,
which is imported by way of other ports of the Republic
than those on the Isthmus,will pay import dues the same
as coming from foreign countries.
Ves.els coming from ports on the Isthmus, which
'hall cuter, loaded or unloaded, in any other ports of the
Republic, shall pay no tonnage dues."
General Paez was still endeavouring to raise an insur-
rection in Venezuela.

The accounts from Mexico are very favourable, di-
vested of the exaggerations which the American news.
paper writers always indulge in.
A plan for the arrangement of the debt due in re-
spect of foreign loans had been agreed upon between
the agent of the Bondholders and the Mexican Govern-
'neut. The following is a statement upon the subject:—
Ist. Government offers four millions and a half, to be
taken in three equal parts from the American indemnity,
Which will be applied to the payment of future dividends
and those due since 1846. -
2d. Instead of the income from tobacco, which has
given little or nothing to the creditors, Government
Offers them, as security, not only the duties on precious
Metals exported from the Pacific, but likewise en those
exported from any part of the Republic.
3d. The duties on gold and silver circulating in the
Whole country.
The interest is to be 3} per cent. for ten years, and
then to increase annually until it reaches the original
G per cent, while a commissioner will be appointed to
act in England with the agents of the Bondholders, and
there will be no further chance of " squabbles" and delays
The President of the Mexican Republic states, in his
speech, that the income and expenditure may be
equalized, and that a large proportion of the home debt
bears no interest. The indemnity money received last
May was still in hand. The committee of Spanish
Leneeican Bondholders have received letters, but we
'!ilye RA yet seen copies. With regard to the
terms above given a e believe the letters will confirm
them.
