panic, they retreated to Lima by Sea, first cutting the
'hroats Of their horses and mules thousand in

General Castillo the former President heads the Rev
dictionary party. OF Don Domingo Elias, nothing has
been heard since his defeat at lea in January"
In addition the foregoing facts the writer Of the let

unfortunate condition which this large section Of coun
try reduced by the continual outbreaks of rebeous
and revolutionary ssprants after power
1.-THE result of all this H. that the entire country South Of
Lima has declared against the present Government which
it requires extraordinary foresight predict will be
overturned before month";. True, this would be Of
small consequence not the origin of twenty other
revolutions in rapid succession to keep for three
years in trouble and uncertainty without any permanent
reliable Government.
Under such circumstances it is useless speak al out

times."
