Lima, Dec. 27-Immediately on the
arrival in this city of Lieut.. Col. Gas
con, charged with presenting to the Co
vernon Of Callao the capitulation Of
Ayacucho, and the order for delivering
up the fortress, his excelle ncy the Ii
berator despatched an officer with a
white flag, to request proper passports
from the Governor for the commits
sioners appointed by the Government,
and for Lieut. Col. Gascon. The Off
Ger was stopped by the first outposts Of
the enemy, and informed that peremp-
tory orders had been given not to add
NIT any parley on our part. His Ex-
cellency then resolved TO use his influ-
ence with the commander of his Bri
fannie Majesty's naval force in the Pa
cifc, that the commissioners of the Co
Jernment and that Of the Spanish ar
my, vanquished in Ayacucho, might
embark on board II. Nj. S. Cambridge,
in the hope that, under the sanction Of
the British flag, they might come to
some understanding with the Governor
of Callao, and place in his hands the
documents before mentioned. The
commander of the Cambridge instantly
complied, and, after receiving on board
the commissioners, set sail from Cho-
rillos for Callao. Having cast anchor
without the reach Of the enemy's can
non, the British commander sent an Of
fetal note to the Governor, explaining
the object of his coming, and offered
the Cam bridge for them to cary on
their negotiation, if it were agreeable
to him. The reply of the Governor
contained refusal of the mediation,
and stating his doubts of the reality OF
the successes of Ayacucho, he added
strong declaration that he neither adj
niitted nor would admit any commu-
incation even under the protection
of flag of truce, coming according to
his expression) from the enemies of
his King No hope then remaining OF
a favorable conclusion, the Cambridge
