NEw GRENADA.--A Carthagena correspondent
under date Of the Both May, writes 81 would
had time speak Of matters at length in this coun-
try will only say that the troubles here increase
every day without our knowing how they will end
The Minister Of Finance, Senior Rojas, resigned
and Senior Mnrillo, the Minister Of Foreign Affairs,
was appointed in his place. Murillo does not en-.
Joy in the least the confidence of The country and
people are Disguised at his appointment Gen.
Jose Marcia 0vando has been appointed Governor
Of this place, and the Government has thereby
alarmed the people Of the town. / do not think it
prudent step Gen. MOsquera, the last President,
lives III q village Of this province, where, as am
informed, he intends establishing mercantile
house." The Bogota papers do not mention the
change in the Ministry. According to the NeO-
GraRadino Of the 18th May, the Chambers were
occupied in devising means for supplying the Trea-
sury, endeavoung avoid, if possible, the repeal
Of the law declaring the culture and manufacture
Of tobacco free until 1850. This measure had been
suggested bat was very much opposed by The peo-
PIE. The Chambers have been making retrench-
menis; butt is feared they viii not be sufficient
70 cover the deficit A long article, signed by
Senator, Appeals in the paper above quoted, and
the writer Of the article bIames the editor for hay
ing said thar there was in the Upper Chamber
systematic opposition to the present Government
by the friends Of the previous Administration.
According to this article there is no such opposition
as the Nee Gnuaadao supposes, although several
reforms were made and resolutions passed little
introduced by the Liberals supported, it is true, BY
The Conservatives, as those are called who sup
ported the Administration of Mosquera. Accord
ing to the same paper Congress is TO be prorogued
for thirty days, as several urgent and important
projects are before it and neither Of these acts
can, it is thought, be passed until new Admins
traton comes into power
EcUADoR.-The accounts from this country are
up 10 the beginning Of May, and are contained in
the COrreo Of Lima. They ara peaceful. The
scarcity Of provisions in Guayaquil induced the
Governor Of that province TO remove the duties
but when he submitted his conduct to the Execn-
tive the latter decided that he had no power to sls-
pend the tariff The Governor consequently re-
voked his order and left the matter in the hands Of
the Legislature.
PERu.-The files Of the Lima C0rreo up to the
18th May have been received at Havana. Already
several preliminary meetings Of the Chambers,
called for an extra session, have heen held and
from what transpred in these meetings ii is pFoba-
BILE that when the Chambers are legally constituted
the discussions will be very angry, on account Of
the opposition which the Government Of Gen. Cas-
lila encounters-or rather, some Of his Ministers,
TO whom is attributed the persecution which many
Of the distinguished men Of the Republic have snf-
iered. It will be remembered that in consequence
Of a conspiracy which was, il is said, discovered
towards the end Of February, several persons were
arrested and sent out of the country on the Tum-
hes, orig bound Tor Rio Janeiro. The captain Of
The vessel, when he arrived at Talcahuano, Chin
landed Gems San Roman and Lersendi together
with the other eKilss, and said he would share their
banshment. His conduct was followed BY some
Of the crew, The rest Of tie crew, together with
the mate, returned in the brig to Calao. San Ro.
man and his companions went to Valparaiso
MISUNDERSTANDING all the victories oh
iained by Gen. Belzn, and the suffering exneri
enced BY the Republic in the last five months, in
consequence Of that Generals pronuncamientos
against the Government Of Velasce, and those Of
The partisaus Of Tie latter and of Balvian against
Belzn, the country is not Vet settled, nor ia there
any telling when il will be. New difficulties seem
to rise up every day Although the prouuncia-
! miento in favor OF Bailivian was smothered, and
he finding it impossible 10 escape from Cobia wenl
n icCaiao, which place he leh on the LIST of May
aud although several Of the chiefs Of this part,
a were shot and Others were obliged 10 emigrate
y President Fsaseo has again appeared in the feel,
I as the Geneal-in-Chef, having been appointed b.
Y Don Jose Maria Linares President of the last Con
! gress at lis extra session. which body invested hin
with the I'D interim Presidency of the Republic
3 Linares began to act as President at Tnpiza to
e wards the end Of March, yelasco supports hin
3 and directs the army. On the other hand, Belzin
who calls himself Provisional President, issues i'm
!, porlant DEGREES in matters Of government, com
. msree, etc. Itappears certain that Belzin govern
the larger part Of the Republic According 10 ad
vices from Taena, africa, and Tarapaca, Velase
3 had, in the beginning of May, collected som
forces in the south of Bolivia. A letter from africa
! dated tile 9th, says that the party Of Veasco wa
gaining ground, and had possession Of Chuquiraea
although the same letter expresses fears lest tn
Cholos Indians repeat the scenes Of which La Pa
was the theatre.
CHfLL--The Valparaiso papers say that the re
T cent elections have fully proved the uRpopulaHr
of the Ministry The Gillian commerce appear
to be suffering severely from the troubles in Bolivia
