 Their navy has been disbanded with the exception of few small vessels, for which they are obliged to press men. We are daily obliged to claim some American, for they pay no respect to country; all the foreign officers have been discharged, with out even their pay; many of them have despaired of ever obtaining it, and gone home; others still wait in hopes. Bolivar says the army must be paid first. Admiral

 Cups has been treated with the greatest inhumanity he has been arrested under the most trivial charges, that the envy of his competitors could devise they were jealous of the glory he acquired by deed which they dare not attempt, and if att tempted, they could not achieve. He was thrown into prison, where he was attacked by disease which nearly terminated his life, and was only relieved at the in'erces- sion of some merchant, who, offered secu- rity to an immense amount. He now re- sides at Florens. Bolivar is said to be his greatest enemy; as he was one of the few who would not acknowledge him as LiberGtOr until the freedom of Peru, was achieved.

This was so unusual an hour that 'olivar suspected Something, and had the. ran seized, who became frightened and the whole plot.

 Arrangements had been made to massa- : re him.. while going to or coming from le theatre, on the night of the 18th of uly. He immediately doubled his guards, nd went as he intended, to the playhouse, 'here he discovered many of the plotters they were seized immediately nd put in close confinement.
