and given to them three times a day
and as much Of the soft Indian corn as
they will eat clean.
Hogs should be fed little al a time,
but often aud great care taken not TO
stall them. The Issttwo weeks offeed

best; their pen should be cleaned twice

SOUTH AMERICA.

SOUTH AMERICAs
The war between Colombia and Peru is likely
to Be renewed, in consequence Of the refusal Of
the commandant of Guayaquil to submit to Z
convention which was entered into after the defea
of the Peruvian army
A large Spanish force has been collected al
Cuba, with the avowed intention of a;temI ting an
invasion of Mexico. Spain formerly had posses
sion Of the strong holds Of the country, and yei
her armies were expelled by the Independents.
The chance Of recovering her dominion, after the
whole continent has been reyOlutionzed, is very
small indeed. Internal dissenhons must furnish
the only ground upon which success can be ex-
pected in such an enterprise. But the people Of
Mexico, however incompetent to conduct repub
h3an system Of government, are nevertheless able
to estimate the commercial benefits Of indepen-
donce. Capt. Basil Hall relates, that Creole,
being asked what harm the King had ever done
him, gave a clear idea of the reason of his objec-
ton TO the Kings government, by saying that a
shirt formerly cost him Nue Dollars, but now he
could buy one for Tuo Dollars; aud that was rea-
son enough for him. One Of the abuses under the
colonial government was the commercial mono
poly secured to natives OF old Spain. a native
of the country was not even permitted to receive
goods as consignee All went through the hands
of the fyoured Europeans. The recollection OF
the hardsbips imposed under the Spanish yoke.
will no doubt produce a sufficient degree Of una
uimity, to repel the present attempt against the
independence of our southern neighbours,
