received by his Majesty's frigate Owen Glendower arrived at
Valparaiso in 10 days from Lima; she left in Callao the United
States frigate Constellation. The armistice concluded in
May last, still continued, & it was confidently asserted that Lima
could not possibly hold out a month longer. Sir Thomas
Hardy had continued the blockade, to the ports from to
& ordered the release of all English vessels then in port.—
Chili itself begins to exhibit some symptoms of disagreable
nature.—In March last a paper appeared, under the title of
the pointing out the want of a Code of Laws: as
also begging of the Director a convocation of the Congress, which
he had promised in December. The author was immediately
put into prison: in the course of 9 months afterwards the
public were surprised by the arrest of Genl , & 2 of
the Officers of his Guard of Honour. The Governor of Chili
transmitted most of his State prisoners & some criminals
to the island of Juan Fernandez where they intended
planting a colony."
