The press still continues its commentaries upon
tne conauct i oi 1eneral Hovey, the American Minis
ter here, IN refusing TO acknowledge the new reyo
tioDary government. II these wseacres would only
take the trouble TO examine the diplomatic cores
pondence OF the United States for tile year 1865 they
would speedily discover that our Minister i'm perm
has only as faithful officer OF his government
strictly carried out the positive orders received from
the Department OF State on this particular pont
The United States steamer Wateree has Just re-
turned from cruise along the northern coast OF
Peru. So many rumors or outrages committed in
that section Ill foreigners induced the senior on
of our squadron In Caao to send this vessel par
ticuary for the protection OF American interests
After having been absent about two weeks Captain
Gis reports that the state or aairs In that portion
OF the country is not at all favorable All large farm
ers and planters live In continual dread OF being at
tackled and robbed, and the country Is filed with
rowing bands OF maraudcrs, whose only object Is
murder and theft. These banditti are all ardent
admirers and staunch supporters OF Colonel Bal;i
for the Presidency, and 1t is currently believed
that he connives ut some OF their misdolng wishing
to fail back upon them as the nucleus OF a revOlu-
tonary army In the case OF his defeat In the ap-
preaching election
In Trujio, one of the most important towns in the
north of Peru, malignant fever Is making terrible
ravages For several weeks upwards OF fifteen pe0-
Pile have died daily, and the town only has about
ten thousand inhabitants this mortality is very
great. All along the coast, and at Caao principally
a very considerable anxiety exists, and the most
vigorous quarantine and health measures are being
executed With this the north and the threatened
approach OF cholera from the south the good people
OF Lima have cause for uneasiness. Cholera has
never appeared on this coast but once attacking
city like Lima, where dirt reigns supreme, the NOR
tality would be immense. The cholera is now ravag
ing Buenos Ayres, the neighbor to Chile. Once in
Chileand II is rapidly approaching her frontier-it
would reach Peru with dlsagreeabe rapidity. 1t
might kill number of the aspirants for the Vice
Presidency but at the time 1t is guest whose
ADVENT would be most unWelCOme

tion that everything is quiet in that section Of the

all traces left by the bombardment and the battle
In the Indian departments Of Cuzco and Puno the
Indians have been disbanded and sent to their
homes. During the revolt these savages instigated
by some white men, committed murders and crimes
which excel in arocity those OF our abor!gnes.
The Indians here in peace mild and doce, but,
when excited and in numbers perfectly ungov-
ernable.
The whole country may be considered tranquil, and
people are so much engaged discussing the merits of
the innumerable candidates for the Vice Presidency
that they have no time to organize revolts Business
Is looking up. Buyers arriving from the INTERIOR
and money appears to be plenty with them. In port,
the United States steamships Wateree and Dakota
and store ship Fredona.
