{ on the 9TH ult. mutiny took place 10 the
Castle OF Calao, garri:oned by the Bue-
| nos Ayrean troOps, with view OF forcing
! he Peruvian government to pay them
| heir arrears and which ended in their
| hoisting the Spanish flag, and declaring for
he King. Our property has suffered al
! he depredaiiOns of an unlicensed soldiery
| or twenty-five days. We have no one
no redress until your arrival, Mr.. Provost,
rom the circumstance of having lost his
credentials, can do nothing, and moreover
I IS at present absent from the place. We
therefore, look Tor your presence with The
| Utmost Impotence. as well 10 represent us
on shore with the Spanish chiefs. who we
spprehend are not disposed TO be very H.
beral towards foreigners. as 10 protect us
against admiral Guise, who treats US with
| he greatest outrage and insult. We were
| al anchor in the port OF Callao when this
meeting took place, ADD after an I'M
! successful attempt TO cut US out by Admi-
raj Guise with bis boats, we have been O.
bliged TO cut our cables and haul out, TO a.
| void being burnt by Spanish frigate,
which his boats Get fire 10 and cut adritt.
After being out he opened his fire on US
! al bait shot distance, and has done US Sc
rlous injury. The ship China was in a
sinking condition, from "a pound shot
which entered her below the water line and
before she could be lightened SO as TO stop
the leak, great portion of her cargo was
damaged, aud perhaps ruined. He bias de-
tanned under his guns the ship Providence
and the brig Herald, because they fired Oh
bis boats when they came alongside in the
night, and refused TO answer when hailed.
We have large amount of American
property at stake, and we trust you will
come 10 our reliet as soon as possible -
Our cargoes tor the most part are perlsha :
Bile, and We think we have right to land
them after having come SO Tar to this our
only market on this coast, and from the
circumstance of having commenced dis
charging whilst Callao was under the Pa
,rot flag This admiral Guise will not
permit US 10 do, and we are most anxious
ly waiting for your presence, under the
belief that our rights will be protected.
