IMPORTANT FROM SoUrH AMERICA.
We have, through the kindness Of
Mr.. Gilpin of the Exchange News
Room, a file oil the Buenos Ayres Bri-
fish Packet to the 9th of May inclu-
| svc, from which we obtain the not un.
expected information that the Argen-
tine Republic has issued formal dec.
laralion OF war against Bolivia and
Peru, or rather against General Santa
Cruz, styled the Protector Of the Peru
Bolivian Confederation. The declara-
ton bears date May 10Th, and sets
| forth the grounds on which it was issu-
ed, al length. 1t also declares that
the Argentine Republic will refuse
peace, or any arrangements whatever
with General Santa Cruz, until he shall
evacuate the territory of Peru, and
leave that republic free to dispose Of
its own destiny.
The declaration is accompanied by
manifesto of the causes which justify
its issues and this manifesto occupies
six columns and half of the Packet,
and has " To be continued" at the end
of the portion published. The course
of the Argentine government seems to
be much approved by the citizens.
The Packet of May 30 contains the
formal recognition of the independence
Of the Argentine Republic by the king.
dom of Sardinia, and IL recognition of
a consul general from that kingdom by
Gen. Rosas, the governor.
In the Packet of May 6, we find an
abstract of the proceedings instituted
against the Brazilian brig Eloisa, which
was seized by the authorities in June,
1896, when on the point of sailing os.
tensibly, for the Cape Of Good Hope,
but as was suspected, for the coast Of
Africa, to engage in the slave, trade.
This suspicion proved to be correct,
and the brig has been confscated, with
all her cargo and equipment. The at
tenuon Of the government was first di.
rectcd to the Eoisa by the British min
lister, who has written to Gen. Rosas a
letter OF thanks for his prompt interpo-
stion.
