A file of the Jamaica Papers to the 21st of July has
been received at the Jamaica Coffee-house, from which
we are enabled to extract some interesting intelligence
relative to the affairs of Peru. The defection of the
Spanish General OLANETA has been followed by the
defeat of General CARATALLA, who, on being taken
prisoner, joined the cause of the Patriots. Thus two
divisions of the Spanish aimy have been united to the
cause of independence ; and theie is little doubt but
BOLIVAR will give a good account of the remainder.
The Peruvians, however, contribute little to the eman-
cipation of their country ; and had they not powerful
neighbours, would scarcely be able to maintain their
independence. The following are extracts :
From the Jamaica Royal Gazette, of the 17th July,
received this morning We have just received a
letter from Panama, dated the 27th ult. and hasten to
give our Readers the following extract :
I send you an official account of the defection of
the Spanish General Olaneta, who, it appears, has put
Limself in communication with some Buenos Aryeans,
on the frontiers of Upper Peru, which will act as a
powerful diversion in favour of the operations of Gene.
ral Bolivar on this side.

6 A general engagement was expected to take place
in Peru in all this month. The appearance of a Spanish
force on the other coast has prevented the arrival of
some troops here destined for that country ; but not-
withstanding this circumstance, I am not apprehensive
of the issue of the campaign. General Bolivar has a
force of upwards of 10,000 good troops with him, well
clothed, organized, and disciplined, and far superior to
anything, from what I can learn, that can be brought
against him. The Peruvians are not Spartans; they are
at the lowest ebb of moral debasement.' -

FROM THE JAMAICA COURANT OF JULY 19.
4, TRUXILLO, MAY 13.

4g By an extra Courier, I have just received from his
Excellency the Liberator, the following intelligence :
that General Olaneta, who bad been with a considerable
division in the province of Upper Peru, after having
taken General Caratala, who had followed him with an
equal force, prisoner. The latter immediately con-
sented to serve the patriotic cause, and cordially recog-
nized the justice with which America had recovered
her liberty and independence. You will be pleased to
give this general circulation.
" JOSE GABRIEL PEREZ."

eg This unlooked-for event assures us of the establish
ment of the national freedom. The Liberator, with the
rapidity that characterizes him, will avail himself of
its consequent advantages, and Colombia, now in her
glory, will give general independence to South America

By the Alexander, whose arrival off Holyhead from
Jamaica, we announced yesterday, letters arid papers
have been received five days later than the packet. At
the "time she left, the Island remained perfectly tran-
quil. The Francis Freeling packet, from Falmouth,
had arrived at Jamaica on the 14th of July.
The General Assembly is prorogued to the 17th
of August.
The following is an extract from a letter from Eliza-
beth Town, dated the 15th of July, which appears
in the Janfaica Royal Gazette:
We have all been fully engaged with guard keep-
ing. It is my opinion, had not the militia been called
out so promptly, some mischief would have ensued
There are three persons to be brought to trial, charged
with conspiracy : two of them were drivers on the Ips-
wich estate, and the other head driver on Rosehury
plantation."
We have received the French Papers of Sunday and
Monday, with the Pilate of yesterday, by Express, with
private letters from Paris of the latter date. There is
