"For time a certain movement has been observed
among the adheents of Flores. However, the activity
of the conmandant and the Judgment OF the governor did
not lose sight OF those nrgues and yesterday it was ne
cessary to proceed against the rlngeaders

From Bolivia the dates to Nov. 3, also. 1t has

October outbreak took place at Chquisaca headed by
Senoes Olaneta Urcullo and Sorrco, proclaiming the
champion OF independence Velasco The people OF Po-

Meanwhile the negotiations between Peru and Bolivia,
after being twice broken Oft with threats OF
were at last brought 10 successful issue, and treaty
made the basis of the suspension of the inferior CON-
absolute liberty of trade, and the submission of the
spectve shares of the expenses OF the independence to
the arbitration of Venezuela and New Granada.

The country appears to be in miserable condition
financially the people crying out for the removal of taxes
and restrictions, while anxiety increased to how the
revenue is to be supplied.
