- in Quito and elsewhere. There seemed,
sT.,ar, a vague impression in the minds Of the
informed of the People that strange events
re about TO take place; and they began to
! s,sre themselves for whatever might occur.
Bu. this state OF things could not last. 1t had
uns evident that tho Mother Country could
| protect itself even; and the aversion enter
med to the English as Heretics, and the old
zstiary hatred to the French, forced them at
Sto attempt selfgoyernmcnt. This was first
me May 25, 1859, at La Paz, a small town III
sinteror of La Plata, more than 800 miles
I IN The capital Of Buenos Ayres. The Peopic
ses.d the Authorities there, and in their places
s.sl.hsd Junta Tuitiua, in which they dc.
lied all the powers of sovereignty resided, Us

hasws of this daring step reached Lima and
kGos Ayres about the samo time, and troops
IN detached from each Capital against them
ahat they found themselves surrounded. They
nlnucd, however, to defend themselves but
Istown was ultimately carried by assault, ait
Inhabitants massscred.
A similar attempt was made in Quito, where,
consequence of the arrest of soma OF It's most
iSinsushed citizens by the President of tie
kiieneia, both the President and Odorcs were
tssed, and Junta was installed in their places
aa the title of Supreme Junta of the klngdom
liQui,o and the Provinces of Guayaquil, Popa-
IN and Panama were invited to unite themselves
,lsh. This Junta also declared its adherence TO
ter legitimate Monarch, and equal opposition to
Ing joseph and the Supreme Jun'a OF Spain.
i The news Of this state of things gave rise 10
zach discussion in Santa Fs de Bogota, where
Re yice-K'ng convened the Notablcs, both
isanish and Crcoles. The Spaniards wished to
HAT the affair as Rebellion, while tho Crcolcs
lsked upon it as the e1ertion OF natural right
ading ,hem,elvcs equal in all respects 10 then
lnihren in Old Spain. The Vice-king deter
llned to send forces against them, a. was also
ae by Ab4scal, Vice. King Of Vera Cruz. In'
lila, seeing themselves overpowered, released
1str prisoners and returned to obedience. NJ
M.r had the Spanish troops possessed them
srss of the city, than, aided BY the opponent
The Jun,a, they began massacre of lis parll
Us. In the neighborlDg Provinces, Don Migus
icon, Governor of Popsysn, and subsequent
cs,ain General of Cuba, first distinguished him
u by his activity in putting down Rebellion, Il
I;Yas called. The seventies at La Paz ant
ditto excited throughout The Continent III
spest disgust, and contributed not little II
.s,suing the general crisis. Subsequent event
nd the French successes, in spite Of the al
z,aop OF some dozen Deputies into the Genera
Co.s from the whole Spanish American People
| YET farther encouraged them; and the iniudiclou
re,Gcton of the franchise TO persons of pur
European blood did not secure the affections o
his class though it reused the deep animosl'y o
| The Indian.
These feelings we're universal, and exhibited
themselves in every part Of the Spanish American
Empire. In Caracas in Carthagena, and IL
Santa Fe de Bogota, they were so fer succcssfo
that the Governors were seized upon and sen
out OF the country. In each Of these capital
