THE LONDON JOURNALS.

DAILY

Extractsfrom the Morning Pwyers, Feb. 7, 1825.

[BRITISH PRESS.]
The intelligence received on Saturday, re-
specting the military operations ie South Ame-
rica, are in the highest degree favourable to the
cause of independence. According to the Guaya-
quil Paper, from which extracts are given in an-
other column, Bolivar was proceeding steadily in
the liberation of Peru. In a Proclamation issu-
ed at Huancayo on the 15th of August,he speaks
of Olaneta as co-operating with the Patriots for
the overthrow of the Spanish power—" Peru and
all America should recognize in General Olaneta
one of its liberators." This is first official
statement of the declaration of Olaneta against
Spain, and we hardly know, even now,'whether we
ought togive it credeuce. The account,We,llad from.
Buenos Ayres represented the Spaniards as engag-
ed in an intestine struggle, but, according to the
Manifesto of Olaneta on renouncing the authority.
of the Viceroy La Serna, the quaiier bf tweet',
the Royalist Generals originated in •no good-will
on the part of any one of them towards the Arne-
ricans,but in their political differences as SPaniards,
and Olaneta made it his peculiar boast that he
had always been a pUre and A bsolute'Royalist,and
never a partizan or supporter of the Constitution.
How , with these sentiments, this Man ::can have
4c entitled himself to American gratttUde," we
profess to be wholly unable to 'comprehend.
Letters were also received on Saturday. from Mr_
Henderson, our Consul-General at Bogota, dated
the 19th of November, by which we 'learn that
intelligence had reached that city that Bolivar
had completely routed Cantarac on the banks
of the Apurimac. The impression at Bogota was,
that the war in Peru was at an end. It is pro-
bable that this victory will turn out to be that of
which advices were transmitted to us by way of
Buenos Ayres. A short time must bring us the
official details, and remove all doubts. A Brazi-

Tian mail was received yesterday. It fully con-
firms the statements of the tranquillity of all the
Provinces of that vast empire. A military com-
mission has been appointed for the punishment of
the revolters of Bahia. In Pernambuco the Con-
stitution has been proclaimed with great pomp ;
and in Ceara the rebels bad been d spersed by
the first volley of the Imperial troops. Pedro 1.
may therefore now repose with confidence in the
safety of his throne, which nothing can hence-
forth shake, but his own wilfulness or folly. The
republican institutions by which he is surrounded,
will, however, it is to be expected, admonish him
to a temperate exercise of the prerogatives he has
reserved and appropriated to himself.
