IN Areguipa) that the loss Of life among the wound.
e1 will be large, for want of proper attepdance il
is proposed to send down by this steamer large
sthf of surgeons to render assistance 10 the few
that are there.
When the news first arrived, n0ue believed it,
fer Arequipa has always been considered impreg.
Hable; but whatever doubts there might have been
in the matter were soon dspeled by the arrival OF
the irigate "Apurimac,' Capt. Montero for the
purpose ofsubnlitting her TO the government, Can't
Montero and Gen. Riyas however debating their
terms, which have been accepted by the govern
ment, and by which they ageee to respect the pro-
perty and guarantee the liberty of all officers, SOL
diers aud searnen engaged on the "Apurimac"

do so at their own leasuTe;
That the pay due the soldiers and seamen shall
be paid by the Cover. ment
The frigates Apurimac, Peytania and Huaras to
be delivered under inventory by the present pos.
SCISSORS to the Government
rumor has reached that Gen. Castillo in
tends to push the war into Bolivia, probably to
place his friends CordOva or Be2u, at the head Of
affairs in that country. Castillo is an enemy OF
DR.. Linares and will soon dispose of him. although
Peru at present requires peace her treasury is ex-
hausted, and her credit below par
Business is very dull. There are great num-
Der of American ships in the bay seeking charters,
but the rates so low that they will not accept
them, and think that some of them will leave
in ballast.
Next TO the excitement caused by the news of
the fall of Arequipa is the arrival of the United
States frigate Merrimac; she has been crowded with
visitors every day since her arrival and yet the
crowd continues. She is going over the bay TO
Lorenzo to practice gunnery. Her consumption
of powder must be great. for every day she has
been salutiDg Ministers, Consus. Admlras, Gene
rails, &c. She leaves US shortly for Panama We
daily expecting the Saranac and Vaudalia.
