Excerpt: ...their contract, are wandering about the streets in a state of despair; others, naked and clamorous, remain on board; the invalids are begging alms, and all are cursing the authors of their misfortunes. The result Vol. Hi. 2 H of this conduct on the part of the government is, even at present, that not only the seamen and soldiers, but even some of the officers, avail themselves of every opportunity to dispose of prize goods, as well as of the naval stores belonging to the vessels of the squadron; and when they are discovered, the infliction of punishment is prevented by their alleging that they neither receive pay nor prize-money, and that they despair of ever receiving either. " On my return from the first cruize, your excellency will also be pleased to recollect, that I reported the necessity of marking each barrel, or package of provisions, with the weight or quality which it contained; making the purveyor responsible both for the quantity and quality of the contents, in order to prevent all kinds of fraud; because, from the purser's reports, I should then have been able to know for what period the squadron was victualled. I was compelled to make this request, because I found that the purveyor had reported at the commis-sariate that he had delivered twenty-one quintals of beef to the Independencia, when in fact only eleven had been received. Thus the state was charged with the value of ten quintals which had not been delivered, for the purpose of filling the purse of an impostor, whose nefarious conduct might have frustrated the object of our expedition, or even have involved part of the squadron in inevitable ruin. For the purpose of counteracting such iniquitous proceedings, no order has, as yet, been issued, nor am I authorised to...

The'fluctuations in the designs of the government are well portrayed in the following letter from"Lord Cochrane to the supreme director: -' '. "' Most Ext. Sir'--.-Being at.present: indisposed witha palpitation of my heart, which at timesi afflicts me most severely, and which would be increased with a journey to Santiago, were I' to undertake it according to the request ofitlrs government, Ifeol myself obliged to solicit an excuse; persuaded as I am, that the following exposition, which contains all that is necessary to remind you to reflect on what is past, and to Anticipate what is to come, will be suflicient. I also hope that my exposition will be ascribed to the sincere desire that I have of serving your excellency, to whose interests I am most sincerely attached, as being the august representative of the sacred cause of your country's welfare. ' " Touching on what is past, you will do me the honour to recollect, that.I recommended to you the indispensable necessity of. removing among the seamen all kinds of distrust with respect to.their pay and pr.u: e.-money: the first Qf which they have not yet received, and of the second they have been totally defrauded; your exeellency promised me that 'they should be regularly paid, and that. whatever prizes were taken should be entirely appropriated to these two objects; the moiety belonging to the captors should be immediately distributed, and the other, appertaining.to government, should be applied to the payment of arrears, and equipment of the vessels of war.

Excerpt from A Historical and Descriptive Narrative of Twenty Years' Residence in South America, Vol. 2 of 3: Containing Travels in Arauco, Chile, Peru, and Colombia; With an Account of the Revolution, Its Rise, Progress, and Results On the side of the river opposite to Huaito I visited the farm of Vinto, which from the purposes to which it is dedicated may be considered as something like an English farm. Horned cattle are bred in considerable numbers; the cows rear the calves, and are seldom milked. Dr. Robertson speaks of a degeneration of animals in America, "in the Spanish colonies within the torrid zone, or bordering on it;" but he certainly was misinformed with respect to Peru; the cattle is not so large as in Lincolnshire, but, taking the average, it is as large as the English, French, and Spanish cattle: when fed on lucern the meat is well-flavoured, fat, and juicy, and the bones arc very small. At Vinto great numbers of pigs are reared, and are said to pay very well. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
