By order, ARTHUR AIKIN, Secretary.

These macceuvres, and the mode in which they were
eluded, are to us of as little political importance as the
events of a fox-chase. In conserence of discovering
their object, he resolved to proclaim the absolute King,
and " to proscribe the mischievous code of the Const-
itution in the Provinces of Potosi and Charcas, inviting
the people to unite in favour of order and religion,
which had been impiously attacked." At the begin-
ning of February, he proposed to the Viceroy that the
should be allowed to command, unmolested, within
certain limits ; and the Viceroy, we are told, answered
the proposal by detaching the army of the South against
him. At the same time Valdez offered to bribe him
into submission, by a purse of 20,000 dollars and two
employments during his life. This of course he refused.
—At length a treaty was made between Valdez and
Olaneta, on the 9th of March, which, as the la:ter in
the proclamation before us declares, was only a ma•
nreuvre to gain time on the part of the former. All the
stipulations of this Convention, Olaneta, accord;ng to
his own statement, strictly observed. On the contrary;
be accuses the Liberals of encroaching on his territory,
and limiting his power. Scarcely was the treaty sanc-
tioned by the Viceroj, when Valdez circulated an order
resuming the military command intrusted to him by
direct stipulation. Miller ethic:ins pretexts, his troops
were invited to desert his standard, and join the foicei
of his opponents. At, one time an army had arrived
on the coast; at another, Canterac required an addi-
tional force to oppose Bolivar. The General, in this•
manifesto, reprobates all these artifices, and denounces
them as the fruits of knavery and perfidy. Firm
.loyalty to his King, and confident in the support of his
troops, he resolves to maintain his ground against lbw
faction of the Constitutionalists. " Convinced," lus.
adds, " that they pretend to establish a traitorous Go-
vernment, incompatible with the tranquillity of America,*
I must overcome my repugnance to civil war, and avail
myself of arms to repel it. My desire is, to favour the,
public wishes by being useful to the King, the object of
my love and my fatigues. It was my duty to spew to
Peru the grounds which I have for maintaining the.
war which has been declared against me, being ready
to sacrifice myself for religion, the King. and the wise
laws, which, unfortunately, have been contemned."
In the present state of our information respecting
Peru, it would be unwise to speculrte on the relative
strength of the parties, or the motives by which they
are actuated, or the objects which they may ultimately'
have in view. It appears evident from tills Proclama-
tion, that Olaneta is for Ferdinand and Spain—that the
faction of La Serna, Valdez, and Canterac, are opposed,
to Olaneta—and that the Independents under Bolivar
are oppoied to both. But for whom or for what does
this middle faction contend? Not for Ferdinand, who
refuses their services and proscribes their persons—not
for Spain, which is ruled by Ferdinand,—and not for
the Independents, who deny their claims, and fight
against their pretensions.

SOUTH AMERICA.

In the Argos, a Buenos Ayres Paper, of the 21st of
August, we find a curious proclamation or manifesto of
General Olaneta, addressed to the inhabitants of Peru,.
dated from Potosi, June 20. In this document the
Royalist General delivers his political creed respecting
Governments and colonization ; and, like a true bigot,
denounces the penalties of war and proscription against
all those who differ with him even in its minor articles.
Nay, the greatest heretics in his opinion seem to be—not
those who deny the fundamental principle of the colonial
faith, the right of the mother country to the obedience
of Peru, but-La Serna, Canterac, Valdez, and the party
who supported the rights of the mother country on the
Constitutional system. It certainly would appear to re-
quire a good deal of boldness in a man who had himself
held a command under the Constitutional Government,
and who saw around him other States and other parties,
not only claiming the civil freedom which that Govern-
ment professed to confer, but demanding and asserting
the absolute independence of Spain, to declare himself
not only against the Independents, but against the army
and the Generals who still held out for the King whom
'he pretended to serve. The principles and defence of
such a man should be heard from his own mouth. "I
have never," says he, " been Constitutional ; and whe-
ther it was by invincible inclination, or by a conviction
that this false liberty is nothing but a chimera fatal to
the happiness .of Mankind, I have' always respected,
and constantly obeyed, the paternal Government un-
der whose protection we have lived. I have always
loved our Kings, and venerated .the anointed of the
LORD, who have shed on us a multitude of blessings.—
Thence have proceeded the hatred and opposition of the'
Constitutionalists of Peru towards me—thence I have
been treated by them as a pure Royalis4 a servile, and
a fanatic." But this " irresistible inclinatidn," this loyal
" instinct," which led him to respect the rights of the
" true Prince," did not prevent him from acting under
the Jacobins whom he denounces. He always, however,
as he assures us, lamented the evils of liberal politics,
and looked forward to the happier futurity of absolute
power. The picture which he presents to the minds of
the Peruvians, of the civil disorders and sacrilegious
horrors of the Constitutional system, seems nearly-a
copy of that which was drawn in the Proclamations of
the Urgel Regency, or the manifestoes of the Trappist :
it would therefore be superfluous to transcribe any of
its exaggerations. This rebellious spirit manifested itself
in the deposition of the Viceroy Pezuela. Commencing
with this act, the General draws up a long bill of indict-
ment against the Constitutional party, and the faction
which, though opposed to him, still supports the cause of
Spain. That faction dismissed from employment all those
whom they suspected of loyal sentiment', and appointed
to all offices, civil and military, their own trusty ad-
herents. " What, in such a case," he asks, " ought to
be the conduct of a Royalist -General? To oppose
himself, with all his forces, to such ignominious degra-
dation—to die rather than consent to such ignominy.
These were my resolutions. Firm in my purpose ofl
supporting at all hazards the rights of religion and of
the King, and with that caution which the danger de-
manded, I arranged the means of repressing the pride
of thote base minds whom neither love nor conscience
could sviay." At the moment when Olaneta was form-
ing these schemes (which before this he kept to himself) '
the news of the King's release, and of the overthrow of
the Spanish Constitution, arrived in Peru. The party
opposed to him had expressed no unequivocal opinion
respecting the Spanish war : they had severely in-
veighed against the enterprise of the Duke of Angou-
leme, and the conduot of the French Government.
The sentiments with which the intelligence from
Cadiz was received by them caqnot therefore be a sub-
ject of doubt. Olaneta accuses them of wishing to pre-
serve Peru as a refuge for the exiles of the Cortes; but
be that as it may, he shews the strength of their party
and the weakyess of his own, by the admission that the
division of trbops Which' he 'commanded was the only
pars of the army opposed to their de,igns.. After men-
tioning this fact, the General goes on to state the ma-
nauvres employed to disband his force, to deprive him

THE RSV. MR. FLETCHER.
The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat this morning
on the bench at ten o'clock. There was not the slightest
abatement of the interest evinced yesterday; in fact, a
very marked increase of anxiety was evinced ; many
Ladies took possession of the back seat appropriated
for Counsel; and many of those who were yesterday
put to some inconvenience, made up for their disappoint-
ment by taking, at an early hour, possession of the most
eligible situations for hearing. . .. •
The Rev. Mr. Fletcher was in Court daring the whole •
of the morning, and took his seat on the bench appro-
priated for Solicitors.
On the Lose cuartcuuns taking his seat,
Mr. RAITNIT rose.—His Lordship had yesterday, at
the rising of the Court, been pleased to direct his (Mr.
R.'s) attention to the trust-deed in this case. He had
accordingly read through the affidavits and papers as
far as was in his power. With respect to the question
as to what was the construction of the trust-deed, re-
lathe to the appointment of a Minister, he Mr. R.
answered, 'that it was silent on the subject. With re-
spect.to the suspension of Mr. Fletcher, the:Synod had
no farther power than the suspending him for a time.
The Synod could not take from him his character of
a Minister. _ _ .

The LORD CHANCELLORL—Then what jurisdiction
have-I ?—Can I say, against the will of the congtega-
tion, I will, by an injunction, restrain yon, Sir, (Mr.
Fletcher) .from ascending this pulpit ? Have I any
jurisdiction farther than over the property, and the ap-
plication of-the same? I cannot go farther than this. i
Mr. RAITHBY.—There is a jut isdictioa vested in your
Lordship over property, if any there is in this case,
which I contend there is, namely, that which is as-
signed over to the trustees, fur the purposes named
in the trust-deed.
The Loin CHAPCELLOIL—TeII me what it is yon ask of me.
Mr. Barromr.—To restrain Mr. Fletcher from preaching in this
Chapel, my Lord.
The LORD CHANCELLOR.-1 may restrain the trustees
from paying Mr. Fletcher any of the funds, but I cannot
stop him from Preaching, nor can I any of those highly
respectable Ministers who make affidavits from doing '-
the same. With regard to their opinions in respect to
the Synod, I can only say they may be right, but I
really wish you would inform me what it is you ask of
me? If I am to restrain Mr. Fletcher, I must do sn .
under the terms of the iron-.feed. Ilow did that deed
warrant such a procedure?
Mr. Setanwmx.—What we ask, my Lord, is, that the terms et
the trust-deed may be carried into effect.
The Loan Cataweemois.— Well, then, by what means am I to do
so? I cannot act any otherwise than under the deed.
Mr. SHADWILLI. submitted that the trusts of the pm-
sent deed should be carried into effect in ti e same way
as any deed would be relative to leasehold property,
where difficulties arose between co-trustees. In this
case the trustees had the legal possession of Albion
Chapel, as against all the world, with the exception of
the mortgagee, who did not appear in this instance.
Mr. HART.—He does not appear because he has
not been served.
Mr. suAnwiLL,lf we can chew your Lordship that
Mr. Fletcher is a person-who ought not to be suffered
