received by the Philip Hone.
"On the 2lsl August. the Chilians en-.
tered Lima. after defeating the Peruvians
al the entrance of that city. Gen. Ohrego-
20 with about 600 cavalry fed To Turin. no
miles from Lima. and Nieto retrea,ed tn
the Castle Of Collao, with about 700 men.
where he was deposed by his troops. who
declared in favor Of General Santa Cruz.
There were Al last dates in iheCsslle about
1900 men. and should lheChilisns no, sur
coed in defeating them, their situation will
be very precsrious. as General Santa Cruz
was said to be within twenty dsys march
Of Lima with 5000 men. II is impossible
to form any opinion of the result Of the
