" ♦NGLO-AIXXMCAN XINING A.SOCIATION.

" There is no truth in the allegations relative to thin associa-
tion. Letters from the Commissioners in Mexico, of a later date
than the alleged information, are of a satisfactory nature, and shall
be communicated to the proprietors at the meeting on Monday.
" JOSEPH LOWE, Sec.
" 7, St. Helen's-place, Thursday, Aug. 24, 1626."

We may adopt the words of a cotemporary, on this
subject,' who says, " We profess, to know little of the
" affairs of this or of other Mining Associations,
" beyond the statements which the parties interested
44 from time to time make public; but the fact that the
4, shares in this association, on which 651. have been
" paid, are now to be purchased for about 15/. each,
proves, at least, that the knowledge of its prosperous
situation is confined within a very narrow circle."

In our Paper of yesterday, we gave the principal
contents of the Letters and Papers from Lima, to the
13th May. Papers were subsequently received to the
18th, of that month, but they do not furnish us with
any additional particulars.
A copy is given in the Governthent Gii.zette, of the
Memorial which the deputation from the Congress,
consisting of 52 members, presented to the Council of
-Government, raying that BOLIVAit would, for the
welfare of the New States, retain hint present authority,
and continue in Peru for one year snore, but its great
length precludes our giving snore than its xonelusion
(which, however, contains its essence), and the reply
of Bor,i VAR. k subsequent decree of the Council
directs the'adoption of the .measures recommendedl)y
the Deputation of the Congress :

" Ts reduce to precise terms what has been set forth in this
memorial, the undersigned are of opinion, that until the powers
of the Deputies be rendered uniform,—the representation be com-
pleted,—the wishes of the people respecting the revision and re-
form of the. Constution be ascertained, it be sufficiently ascertained
in what person public opinion centres for the exercise of the su-
preme magistracy, and the subsistence of the Representatives be
,assured, the following resolutions ought in the mean time to be
adopted :
• " I. To suspend the coneScation of the Congress until next
year. _ . _

" 2. To order the Prefects to make with all the promptitude
and completeness possible, the census of the provinces of the state.
"8. To excite in the people confidence and love of their Re-
presentatives, in order that, being informed of the great advan-
tages which the nation must derive from them, when they act
with integrity and good faith, the public may endeavour to in-
demnify them for the losses which they will experience in dis-
charging their duty, by providing for them certain means of "Sub-
sistence.

"4. To enlighten public opinion, by previously consulting the
provinces on the question, whether the Constitution ought to be
maintained as it is, or reformed.
"5. To consult them also as to, the extent of the said reform—
whether radical or only partial.
"6. To ask the provinces whether their Representatives are or
are not to 'deliberate according to their own opinions, or whether
they are to act under particular powers, containing specific clauses,
describing the kind of reform, its applicationond the capital points
on which it ought to be established.
" 7. In order that the individual who is to exercise the office
of First Magistrate of the State may enter on his charge with a
universal sanction—in order that in the difficult circumstances
under which he will have to act, public opinion may aid and sup-
port him against those parties which are proeeeding to such lengths,
that the Liberator may absent himself from us; finally, since we
have been already twice cruelly deceived by former Presidencies, it
is just that the people should be consulted respecting the Citizen to
whom their destiny, their interests, their glory arc to be confided.
It is fit,
.therefore, that they should be asked whom they wish the
Congress to elect President of the Republic,
Senate, through .which channel he ought to be proposed, does not
yet, exist. supposing that the

that the Congress should put an end to the ambiguous, nod I may
add, unheard-of relatithis which exist between 'the two countries.
Del I have resolved to lay aside these considerations to remain in
'Peru; because it is not just that one State should sacrifice itself
for the interests of another, and because I know that every Ame-
rican Republican holds its well-being dependent upon-that of the
rest, and that in serving one we serve many. I have the honour
to offer.yon the testimony of my consideration and respect.

lies, the Privates de Beira, and her son, to the church of Notre
Dame d'Atoclut. They met in the street of that name the holy

the Princesses, and their suites, immediately descended from their
coaches, end, to the admiration of every one, and with serious de.
votion, accompanied the holy sacrament to the church of‘St. Sl°
bastian, out of which it had been taken. The two Princes
stationed themselves at each door of the coach wherein was
