NEw YORK, March 23-The steamer Ari-

arrived.
The crews OF the Spanish fleet on the Gillian
coast are suffering from confinement and want
Of fresh provisions.
The Spanish frigates Villa de Madrid and
Blanco have been repuked in attack on the
Gillian Notifications at the mouth of the river,
in which was the allied fleet. The fortfica-
tons were strong, and guns had been mounted
from the Peruvian frigate AmaIgonas, which
was wrecked on the bar. The Spaniards at
tempted to she'll the place, and to reach at long
range the 50 uadron inside. The fire was hand
somely returned by the fort, and the Blanco
was considerably damaged They returned to
Valparaiso.
An able consular protest has been made
made against the Spanish commanders decla-
ration of coal being contratand of war.
1t Is rumored at Valparaiso that credits of n
large amount. granted by the Oriental Bank OF
London, had been dishonored by their CORES
pendent bank of Valparaiso. They Were, how
ever, Immediately taken up by the National
Bank OF Chilli, for the honor of the Oriental
Bank.
Bolivia has allied herself with Chilli and
Peru, for offense and defense. Peru is rapidly
preparing TO take a full share in the war. Eight
tOrpedoes will soon be ready for the defense of
Callao. Prado's government was inspiring
confidence daily.
The Colombian Congress rejected the prope.
sition to declare war against Spain.
