INTERESTING FROM PERU


| Extract of letter received in Philadelpb;,
from a person of the highest rcspectability
dated Kingston, Jam. 18th May, 1895
81 endeavored to give you the earliest
intelligence Of the grand battle of tie
9th December, in Peru. have now
Infinite satisfaction in being the FIRST to
announce to you, Sucre's total defeated
Olaneta in Upper Peru-Olaneta and
one aid-de-camp alone escaping
have transmitted this information 10
Mexico and to London. A friend of
mine who left Lima on the l4th March
reached Panama on the 18th ult.; on
the 18th he despatched to me courier
stating, that French cruizer had
come in from the squadron off Calao,
to forward dispatches from The French
admiral to the ministry of France; that
as both Careno and the British Consul
had jealousy Of the present French
policy in the Pacific, passage had
been refused: the account of the battle
soon became public. When my friend
left Lima, Callao still held out; Rodil
flattering himself Olaneta might vet
get ahead. 1t is now thought he will
retire on board the French squadron,
and leave the garrison 20 its fate.
"Fourtccn ships were blockading Re-
dill. The greatest harmony prevailed
between them and the English and l..
States force. The French were prohi-
bred inter course with Rodil, and 9rea,
jealousy occasloned.'

This Institution recommended bust

TO those on whose property they have

OHIO.

The United States Bank and the STATE La,cs.
We learn that the agent of the Bank
in this city, has received instructions
from the parent institution, to sell the
land of its debtors in this state, with
out valuation. This step has been re-
solved on, we are told, in consequence
of the late decision of the Supreme
Court of the United States, in relation
to the relief laws of Kentucky. Alb.
stracted from the gross injustice and
inequality of the rule which is now at.
tempted to be enforced by the Bank.
when the rights Of other creditors are
considered, we cannot but think that
the reasoning of Judge Thompson, in
the opinion relied on, even if it was
correct, cannot authorize the measure
about to be pursued. We are inform
ed that the circuit court Of Ohio, have
never adopted any rules, or been gov
erned by any practice in relation to the
award of execution and the sale OF
lands, than what is prescribed in our
statutes. The uniform course Of pro-
ceedings has been, to follow our judg-
ment and execution law, even to the
examination Of the marsha's sales,
preparatory to the execution of his
deed. Principles SO long acted on,
without any rule to the contrary, must,
we conceive, preclude the construction
contended for by the Bank; at all events,
all purchasers, unless they are non-re-
sidents, or the bank herself, will be
compelled to perfect their legal reme-
dies in our state courts, where it is to
be hoped, the laws of the state will not
be disregarded.
We are no advocates for stay laws
or stop laws. We still believe, as we
always have done, that legislative re-
lief between debtor and creditor, by
which the collection Of money Justly
due, is protracted, or rendered diff
cult, is not only unjust, but immoral
We have ever considered our appraise-
ment policy, to be highly questionable,
and hesitate not to say, that it could
not be the intention of the trainers of
our constitution to impede the opera
tons of justice, by interfering with
contracts. But such laws do exist !;
the Bank loaned her money, in refer
ence to these laws; they composed a
part of the contract between the bor-
rover and the lender, and no one can
now complain, when they are put in
force. The loan was voluntary, and
the remedy by law to secure it, was
we'll known, and in the absence Of all
fraud, the Bank now assumes an arbi-
trary power to sacrifice the estates of
our citizens, when every local creditor,
however peculiar the nature of his
claim, is without the benefit Of the rule.

REMARKABLE CASE.

There is person Of middle age in
the vicinity of Boston, who has nothing
but the muscles and common intcgu-
ments to cover or defend the heart Oh
the left side of the thorax. The hearts
pulsation can be seen distinctly, even
pressing itself beyond the anterior side
ofthc sternum. This is great curl
osity to the anatomist, and strikes
those who are acquainted with the beau
tiful mechanics Of this never firing or
gan, with astonishment--as it seems,
on viewing this phenomenon, as though
every succeeding diastole would burst
the heart, and sever the thread Of life
in an instant. The facts in relation to
the case are simply these: When the
individual Of whom we are speaking
was child, by some strange accident
all the ribs about this part were badly
fractured, but instead of uniting again,
by deposition OF ossifc matter, the
absorbents took away the injured bone,
and none was afterwards formed, thus
leaving the hears unprotected. Even
the puncture of a pin at this tender
point would be his death, and yet he IS
apparently so careless of his existence.
that he never has provided himself
with any pectoral defence beside his
common clothing. Jfediea! Late''
MIR. Thomas Barnitt, Of Philadelphia
has invented a machine which he calls
the Patent Revolving Nipper, tor the
pressing of tar out Of yarn for the ma
nufacture of cordage. The yarn Is
more equally tarred, and not the least
strained or injured by friction, as 1t
must be by the old mode of tarring;
and it retains the same bulk as before
the operation. This machine affords
very great saving of labor and time,
and the rope is much smoother and
better. Some Of our best and most
extensive rope. makers use it, and con-
fdently recommend it to those who are
engaged in the same occupation.

TUESDAY, JUNE 2l, 1925.

Gen. Lafayette arrived in Boston on the
18th inst. at p. NJ. and was received by the
governor at the residence of the Hon. James
LLOYD. He was the next day presented to
the Legislature of Massachusetts,, who well
coined him in the most honorable and respect
full manner. That body had just passed an act
granting IS each, and 81 additional for every
twenty miles they may have travelled, to ev-
ery officer and soldier present at the laying Of
the foundation stone of Bunker's Hill Monu-
ment, who was in the battle. Every thing
was in readiness for the great ceremony,
an account of which we hope to lay before our
readers on Thursday. A few days before the
Gen. arrived in Boston, he said in letter TO
Mr.. Lloyd, 81 shall be obliged to leave you on
the goth for the States Of Maine, N.iIampshire,
and Vermont. 1t becomes necessary for me to
embark on the 18th Of August, and I must
have visited NJ York, Philadelphia, Baltimore,
Washington City, and the three Virginia Ex-
Presidents, before do, to my great regret,
leave the blessed American shore"
The cordial manner in which Mr.. CLAY has
been received in Kentucky, and particularly
in that district of it which he lately represent
ed, win, We presume, satisfy every body that
he has not yet forfeited the confidence of his
own state.
On the 1st inst. splendid dinner, attended
byupwards of 500 gentlemen, was given him
by the citizens Of Lexington and of the ,coun-
~ of Fayette in which it stands. We have
no room to-day for the addresses and toasts,
but shall not neglect them. One, however,
we will anticipate-It follows
The President of the United States,
'sBe Just and fear not
Let all the ends thou aims't at be thy coun-
try's,
Thv Gods, and Truths then if thou falPst,
Thou f,lPst a blessed martyr"
A public dinner, numerously attended, had
few days previously been given at Frankfort,
the seat of government, and as soon as Mr..
Clay could conveniently attend, others were
TO follow in woodiord, Clarke and Jessamine
counties.

Detroit, June I've understand that
the Council held with the Indians, by
Governor Cass, at Wapaghkonetta, in
Ohio, terminated unsuccessfully. This
Council was convened at request OF the
Cherokees, who were DESTROYS that the
Indians in Ohio should remove 10 the
west ofthe Mississippi. But the Shaw
nese, who were the only Indians at the
Council, exhibited a manifest indispo-
sition towards change of residence.
Many ofthem have made considerable
advances in agriculture, and have i'm
proved farms, comfortable buildings,
and domestic animals. These they are
unwilling to abandon. 1t is, however,
highly probable, that in few years the
white settlements will so press upon
them, that they will follow their friends,
many of whom are already west OF the
Mississippi.
