Victoria, dated August 18th, and another
from Tuplza, dated August 10th, giving
accounts OF a complete victory obtained
by Col. Valdez over the forces command

According 10 these accounts, Carratala
lett Tupiza on the 9Th OF August with The
whole OF his division, consisting OF 600
men, 10 take possession OF Potosi. a few
