• Extract of a letter from a Gentleman of Providence,
R. I.• now a resident at Santiago, dated Santiago de
Chill, April 15,...1824.: •
"I arrived-here on the 16th inst. after a journey of
three days frail Valparaiso, without accident. But you
can have no idea of the privations and inconveniences of
the road— the most wretched log-house of entertain-
ment in the western part of • the United States is cons.
fortable and inviting, when compared with the houses
of entertainment on -the road between this place and
Valparaiso' notwithstanding. it • is so much travelled.
There is also not a little danger in. travelling -this road;
robberiei and murders are, not unftequent, and very
few go unarmed. • The. fare also is wretched, it being
extremely difficult to geranything to eat. l- have heard
much, as doubtless you have.also, of the wonderful fer-
tility of. Chili ; bet truly the road from Valparaiso bese
exhibits nothing but barren naked mountains, and ste-
rile sandy plains between them. Destitute of vegeta-
tion, except thorn bushes and a few other shrubs and
plants of equal value, and almost •withausany inhabi-
tant—indeed, as yet we have seen,but little cultivatable
cal th, capable of yielding subsistence to nista or beast
—we are told that this road leads through the most
barren and desolate part of the country, and teal in
other places, and particularly in'the valleys Of tiailloti,
Aconcagua, and the province of Conception, there int
immense tracks of the finest land, yielding very large
Clops of grain and fruits.
" This, I here no &Alm, is partially true, otherwisi
the inhabitants would starve ; hut such are the difficul-
ties and expense of transportation here, that the neigh.-
bciuring Provinces are enabled to derive little or to ad-
vantage from the superabundance and Cheapness of
these articles in the aboveaamed favoured regionit.- It

PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE. •
" Mama, SILIPT. 16.
The late tumult it Cordova, of which the, public
are not acquainmd, had its origin differently from what
teas at first supposed, when the affair was whispered
about here, it being attributed to that of Tarifa. It hap-
pened at the bull-fight that a black boll was turned
into the ring.—A Royalist volunteer, in the heat of the
moment, lumped down, and offered himself as the
tg matador of the " Nero," asking permission of a
dorrefidor who was presiding.. The latter desired to
know if he was aware of the danger, and if he knew how ?
and being answered in the affirmative,-gave leave.
Whether, on the man's advancing to the ommously-co-
Inured animal, his courage failed him, or that his dex-
terity was not equal to his presumption, he unluckily
missed his aim, the bull ran his horns though his ribs,
and fairly tossed him out of the arena. Upon this a
about of applause was given by tfie Constitutionalists,
'Which was resented by the other party, and much mis-
chief seemed on the point of taking place, when the,
'timely interference of the Corregidor. and the prompt
obedience to his orders, restored tranquillity. The bull-
fi,ght terminated. and the people departed with a good
deal of noise and vociferation, and mutterings of resent-
ment, but were kept in check by the soldiers on guard.
The Royalists did not like what they considered a de-
feat, and vowed revenge. It became known that the
man had died; upon this they became more infuriated;
a party mustered, armed, and proceeded to attack the
houses of the Constitutionalists; these likewise had re-
course to the arms they had kept concealed, and fired
from the windows, killing and wounding a number of
the Royalists, receiving but little damage compara-
tively in turn.
" The drums were beat, and every soldier called out,
and kept under arms daring the night, to prevent a
snore general spirit of violence. The next morning, the
Authorities, at the head of the Royalists, proceeded to
search the houses of all the known Constitutionalists,
and all who were found with arms, or even suspected
to have them, were marched off to prison; and during
the search, the Royalists and rabble were busily en•
gaged in pillaging and destroying everything valuable
that they could Jay their hands upon. These circum-
stances have :hewn to the Government that arms are
concealed, and that the orders for delivering them up
have not been obeyed : in consequence an order aa,
issued on the 14th. by the Superintendant-General of
Police of Madrid, commanding arms of all descrip-
tions to be delivered at his office within three days,
and that every house would be liable to search. Roy-
alist volunteers, Nobles, and some others, are excepted.
The offenders are to be fined and severely punished.
informants are to be rewarded and protected, and their
names concealed. Another order has been issued to
destroy all papers, pamphlets..&c. relating to the acts
of the late Cortes and Constitutional Government; and
all shopkeepers prohibited from enclosing their packets
in such paper, as the reading thereof only tends to keep
alive the revolutionary spirit."
