During the past fortnight the deaths from

among which we have TO notice the death OF
the celebTaied Belgian military engineer Alex
III der de Mahieu, experimenting engineer CT

ioT b nun beI of yeals director OF The military
Academy at Brussels. The Peruvian Govern
mtnt engaged his services for the term ot four
years. and, in consideration OF the repeated
applications made by toe Peruvian Minister Tor

thirty hours before b $ death. Mr.. maheu had
the reputation Of being one OF the best military
engineers on the Continent.
In my two previous letters / mentioned the
political intliRues that were going on Tor the
purpute OF getting up another revolution. The
Lima press are endeavoTDg to convince their
readers that there is no foundation whatever
for such rumoIs, but our correspondent Koo vs.
that there is not only good iouuda ions for
the day designated as the one to carry out the
plans. General AlveZuri and his trends have
for some time past endeavored TO produce
rupture between General COnseCo and Colonel
Balta, but without success, and matters have
proceeded so lar that General CouSeco the
other day sent Tor Colonel Balta, and confessed
10 him his fears as 10 being able, should he,
G, lionel Balta, remain IN tue capital, TO
Keep things from coming 10 crises. He
therefore advised Colonel BaIra to leave
Lima Tor q short time, or to reure to his estate
In lhe North, placing at the sane time at his
entire disposal during his absence, the trleate
Apurmac. General CansPco at the same time
assured Colonel Balta of his determination to
prevent by all means that lay in his power any
attempt whatever at a revolution, and that the
executive power should be handed over TO him
as the legal successor to it, elected oy the people
Balta at once admitted the wisdom OF the ad.
wee ana accepted il, and he has left tor the
North, from which place he Will return aoolt

President OF the Republic on the 2sLh The ques-

the latter will inev vitably go 10 The wall. The two
sect ons mutually hate each other, and matters
are every day advancing, step by step, to last
and final struggle for the supremacy Of po yer.
At present every office of any trust or impor-
tance whatever is held exclusively by ArequIpe-
nos, who are suplemely fortuna in making
en-, mIes wherever they go by their inlolrrable
aid insolent conduct. HoRever, iher rule In
the land is but short, and they will fud 10 their
cost that the mnu that the people have elected
by an almost unanimous vote 90 the Presidential
char. Will know bow to keep his seat in it
though he has to shoot dozen or two before
breakfast ieyerY morning. To military men he
will apply military law even TO its extreme
penalty.
