VALPARAISO, Jan. II, 1859.
The principal event OF interest during the past
week has been the reception Of the remains OF the
Captain General 0'Higgins and the magnificent OBJ
sequies attendant on their arrival. After an Inn
posing ceremony in Valparaiso the funeral cortege
departed for the capital, where the display

mass funeral discourses, gunpowder and brass
instruments, the remains were deposited in the
cemetery, shortly to be covered by monument now
under process Of construction. The Peruvian IRON
clad Independence accompanied the Chilean squad

Chilean admiration and envy.
The savages have made another attack upon the
frontier settlements and on this occasion have met

The revolution has been completely suppressed by
the energetic movements OF the government troops,

OF confidence felt in the leaders Of the revolt. Two
Insignificant skirmishes took place In which the
rebels were beaten, but the main body OF their forces
the revolt seemed dangerous and the elements COM
posing were also f0rmidable but the selection OF
leaders and the proclamation Of the constitution Of
1850 were peculiarly unfortunate as regarded the
ultimate success OF the movement. The principal
persons implicated In the revolution have emigrated
or rather fed TO the Argentine republic, Megarej0

Although the revolution has been crushed, still the
people are generally dsc0ntented, and at no distant
day WILL all probability make another attempt at
rising, though Megarejo Is so firmly fixed In his po-
stion that the chances OF success are very small.
