In accordance with the intlmauon here
given the frigate Raritan sailed from Panama
several weeks since for the Galapagos, and
thence for the Labos Islands, where she must
have arrred hre the present date. Peru can
bring no naval force sufficient to oppose her
eiiectuaIy, and, therefore, if her commander
is instructed to protect American vessels in
loading and removing guano it will be done.
Some thirty or forty ships have been sent out
from different ports of the United States, es-
peciaIly New York; and it will not be long
before we know how the earliest Of them were
received by the Penguins. In every point of
view the subject is an important one-its i'm
