The steam frigate Pearl brings news from
Callao up to April 9Th, being about three weeks
later than our previous advices from Peru. The
political condition of that Republic appears to
change only for the worse. Civil war and revo-
luton follow each other, varied only by the tact
ard ability of the opposing generals. President
Castillo was constitutionally elected to preside
over the republic, but his administration is now
opposed by Gen. Vivanco, who, as we learn, has
the sympathy of many foreign merchants. But
President Castillo has the command of the gov
eminent forces. An important event, in which
the Pearl played a part, has occurred that appears
likely to put an end to the revolution. The Brit
ish mail steamer took at Callao $32, 900 in specie,
and a quantity of clothing belonging to the Peru
Wan government, which she was to land at some
of the northern ports, for the use of the regular
Peruvian troops. On arriving at San Jose she
was boarded by two war steamers in the en-
ploy of Vivanco, the revolutionary leader, and
insultingly ordered to deliver up everything
belonging to the Republic. The mail steam
er not being armed, was forced to do so.
There can be no question that this was a p~iratical
act. AS soon as the British Admiral heard of it,
he despatched the Pearl to capture Vivanco's war
steamers.
On the morning of the 28th of March, the
Pearl entered the harbor of San Jose, which is
the seaport of the town of Lambayeque, and found
the two war steamers, Loaand Iuzn6es, at anchor,
but getting up steam with the intention of putting
to sea and avoid capture. The Pearl steamed up
alongside of the Loa and Tun5es (Which were
lying t~ogether) at 8 O'Clock, A. NJ, with every
thing ready for action in case of necessity. Here
she despatched a boat demanding the restitution
of the articles, which not being complied with,
the steamers were taken possession of. After
taking on board their seamen, and manning them
with her own crew, she towed both vessels to
Callao and placed them in charge of Admiral
Bruce of the Monarch.

MEMORANDA.

A fnll-rigged brig came around Diamond Head on Saturday
afternoon. about one hour after the frigate Pearl. She was
under reefed topsaiIs, and her colors appeared tobe Hamburg or
Rrernen. During the night she fell to leeward OF the port, and
was in sight all day Sunday and Monday, beating up, but has
rot been seen since.

During the capture of the steamers by the
Pearl, Gen. Vivanco was on shore at San Jose
with his troops, and spent the whole day IN
riding to and fro, SO perplexed was he with the
capture of his vessels, which were his main reli-
ance in carving on the revolution. 1t is proba-
BILE that this may assist in closing the revolution.
Since the above was put into type, we have re-
ceived the following particulars from Mr.. Speed,
Paymaster Of the Pearl, which contain additional
items Of interest.
On the evening of the Oath of March, Fl. NJ. S.
Pearl, lying at Callao, gave a ball to the gay and
fashionable circle of Lima. Admiral Bruce, Mr..
Clay (the American Minister,) and Mrs. Clay,
honored the, officers with their presence. By the
kindness of Sen'r Dor Condonia, a special train
to Lima was put on at l O'Clock A. NJ, to accom-
modate the guests. The Admiral left early in the
evening in consequence of an important protest
from the Captain of P. NJ. Co. st. NeO Grenada,
against the proceedings of two of the revolution
airy vessels Loa and Tumbes, who had boarded
her, in consequence of information that goods
were being conveyed in her from Gen. Castillo.
Not content with the clothing found, they broke
open the treasure room and distracted therefrom
$4,000. The Admiral despatched the Pearl the
following morning, to demand the immediate
restitution of the money or the delivery of the de-
linquent vessels. C~oasting to the northward, II.
M. S. Pearl examined the intermediate ports
and at daylight on the morning of the 28th, she
found them in Lumbayaque Roads, with steam
UP, and in company with two transports. The
Sen'r Lieutenant, Turnour, was sent to demand
compliance with the above terms, and as the
money was not forthcoming, Lieutenant Radcliffe
took charge of the Loa, and Lieutenant Grant of
the Tumbes. After some communication which
passed with Gen. Vivanco, who was watching the
proceedings from the port of San Jose, Gen. de
la Haza was sent to take a passage to Callao in
the Tumbes, to watch the case in behalf of vi
vance. The Pearl and her prizes sailed at 6, P.
M, the same evening, the Tumbes being short of
coal was taken in tow some distance, and they all
steamed for Callao. On the evening of the 3lst
the Loa was released and sailed for the Chinchas
to procure sufficient money to repay what had
been taken, when the Tum6es would probably be
given up.

DEAR SR:-On the afternoon of the 25tb ult. our
quiet, rural village was thrown into a little more than
usual excitement by the arrival of HI. /. MS corvette
Eurydice, with H. Fl. Majesty and suite on board.
They were on their return from Bird Island and were
in good health and spirits. They had the almost in
credible passage of nine days down spent q part of
a day on the island in exploring and killing "ses
hons,' two or three of the young of which they
brought away alive. The prospect of finding guanO
seems from report to be small. Capt. Patty had ar
rived.
We had a heavy rain here last Saturday night and
Sunday. The weather, for the most part of the three
weeks previous, except showers, had been fine, and
the coffee growers have improved it in clearing their
late crop for the market. The crop will yield about
2OO,0OO pounds, / mean that of the two plantations
united, and the present appearances are in favor Oh
at least as large a crop for the coming year. 1t snO
longer a question whether coffee raising can be pront'
ably pursued in these islands, especially on the all9,

1t is calculated that each person will consume eight bushels
making a total of 400, 900 bushels, or 136,17O tons OF -four.
For seed. it will be necessary TO save $4,000 bushels, leaving
1855, 600 bushels, or, reckoning Al bushels to the ton, dI9,O4Z
tons of -four for consumption-leaving a deficit OF I7,IZo tons
So that, at the outside, there will not be a demand for over 20
600 tons of foreign flour. In South Australia, the crop IS feck-
oned at 10000 tons, being 10000 tons more than is needed. In
1856, South Australia exported 10000 tons of flour and 6O.OoO
bushels of wheat, which was about the amount imported Dy new
South Wales.
AS the wheat harvest in Chile has been a good one, and a
good deal will go from thence to Australia, California shippers
will perceive that there will not be much OF an opening Tor the
Oregon and California surplus in Australia this year.

WEDNESDAY EVE'G, MAY IL, 1857.

We have noticed a considerable improvement in trade the
last week, owing to the arrival of the Yankee, as noticed in our
last issue, and the war steamers Pearl and Esk, both Of the
latter requiring coal and various articles of stores. Sales of
considerable quantities of goods have been effected at auction.
The stock of coal in market is short at the present time. We
beIeveno considerable parcel has been imported here since the
Cynthia's cargo, from Sydney, nearly a year ago. The local
consumption is, however, very small. the main dependence be-
ing upon chance steamers touching for fuel.
The Yankee, for San Francisco, has engaged a full freight.
Oil ex E. I. Frost and Black Warrior, forms the greater part.
The amount of produce goins forward will be small.
We learn that the schooner F. II. Allen is daily expected
from San Francisco with a cargo Of salt.
The Metropolis is loading for Oregon, and Will take a large
amount of our island produce, mostly sugar, coffee and salt.
The bark Jenny Ford, from Puget Sound, brings in a full car
go of assorted lumber. She has a large hold, and can stow
some 400 tons of cargo. We hear that she VIII be kept in the
lumber trade. She sails again for Teekalet on Saturday. The
Foster is expected with a full cargo-O lumber next week, and
the Advance in about six weeks.
SUGAR-We hear of sales of 90 half barrels No. 1, on private
terms. The stock in first hands is not heavy, and holders are
firm in their prices.
CoFFEE-sales of Kona at lac for one lot. No large lots
coming from the plantations. Choice is held at 14c.
FLOUR-Sales of California and Oregon at SIS per Dbl. The

By the British ship Alice Wilson, at Canao, thirty-threed days
from Sydney, Sydney papers have been received up to January
18th. They contain but little of interest, save some valuable
data upon the -four trade of the Colonies.
In Sydney. large parcels of flour were stored for a rise, in
which there was a good deal of probability that the holders
would be disappointed. The total Australian wheat harvest for
1857 is estimated at 6,120,0 900 bushels, from 340,000 acres plant
ed. The population Of the four colonies is set as follows:
