PANAMA, September l4.-Advices
from Lima to 29th Of August. give &C
count of an attempt to assassinate the
President OF Peru. Letters had been
received, stating that there was con-
spiracy to murder him, but the Presi-
dent refused to pay any attention to
them. An attack was made as the
President was leaving the palace to
walk to .his house, which is situated
about five blocks from the Government
building. A number of men had
posted themselves, ready for an on
slaught; many shots We're fred, but
none stuck his Excellency. The
leader Of the movement was wounded
and captured, after hand to -hand
conflict with Col. Santa Maria. The
other conspiratore fed, but thirteen of
them have since been captured aud
will be submitted to rigorous trial.
The plot was, no doubt, q widespread
conspiracy among the discouteuted
unemployed military officers. The
people assembled in great crowds be-
fore the President's houee and cheered
him on his escape.
