PERU.

The following summary Of Peruvian events Is taken
from the Lima papers:
The Heraido again makes excuses for the protraet-
ed revolution in the South, which il attributes TO the
nature of the country.
Since the date of our last advices no engagement
has taken place between the Government troops and
General Castillo The former are stationed between
Chongos and Chupaca. and the latter between leu
chaca and MORA, where, according to The same au-
thority ihev suffer from the climate aud scarcity of
supplies On the 29th deserters from the revo-
lutionary army Joined the Government forces Gas;
tillas army is said only 10 number 1900 men, and
General San Roman had not been able to join him
with his division, which only numbers 500. Castillo
is said 10 have applied to Belzu for assistance.
In Lima every thing remains quiet but at africa on
tbe9 an attack was made on the town by DIR. Ia
yala with $50 or 800 men who succeeded after hard
eb in defeating the small force of IS soldiers left to
guard the town but on the 10th General Guardia re-
took the city, and made about $50 of the revolution
Our private letters from this city say that every
thing was in the greatest confusion and all business
suspended.
All the ports, with the exception OF lquique, were
in the hands Of the Government party. The whole
force of the Presidency consists of 10000; of which
900 hold the central provinces 500 are in the SOUTH
9 500 in and about Lima, and 900 IN the northern
1t must be remembered that these accounts are
taken from the Government paper and should be re-
ceiyed with caution.

CITY ITEMS.

The FIRST FALL FoG.-Yesterday morning the
first fog of the spread its Opaque mantle over
the City. The bay and rivers were thoroughly be-
logged, and their navigation rendered dangerous IN
theeztreme. Ferry boats kept up perpetual shrek
and din with their bells and whistles, and even the
omnibus drivers, nOtedly reckless they are we're
obliged, at one time owing to the slippery and ogsy
state of the Streets to drive with some circumspec
ton. Happily no momentous accident occurred,
though several collisions took place upon the River
One Of the Fulton Ferry boats left Brooklyn for New
