FhOM CHILLI


Friday-1t is now 4 o'clock-the air is
filed with shouts Of joy, the roar of cannon
and the ringing cf bells.-We have obtain
ed a complete victory in Chili-1soo pris-
oners, all theiE artillery, their baggage,
their General Officers, General called
Ordonez, are in our hands, the pledges Of
victory. The miserable remnant Of an ar.
my, that few hours since promised an
early conquest Of Chill, now routed and
fugitive, seeks in vain for escape by fight
our indefatigable cavalry are IN pursuit.
The dead strew the field Of battle ! The
action lasted hours. 1t was at the point
Of the bayonet--the true weapon for the
soldiers of liberty--thus We have over
thrown the enemy. Our loss is inconsid-
cradle compared with that Of the Sian
iards. We can easily realize il il we re-
Feet that Immediately after the issue of the
battle, the vanquished experienced the
greatest reverse in fading in their rear the
rivers Maipo and Maule.


How, indeed, can we conceive that an
army, or rather the remains of an army, in
disorder, could repass those rivers Eve
ry moment more circums;antial details are
received Itis necessary to see the whole
community in congratuIation--the streets
thronged with citizens who make the air
ring with cries thousand times repeated,
Uiva Ia fasrid--to witness the delirium OF
Joy that prevails--to hear every one shout
ing and repeating we are conquerors -
to form an idea OF the general enthusiasm
which this news has inspired. All are ca
ger TO circulate the glad intelligence
thousands of rockets from every door end
terrace, announce and celebrate our Joy
at evening, complete and spontaneous IL
Elimination prolongs the brilliant day,
which forever consecrates upon an imper-
ishable basis the Irdehendence of South
.4mexiea !-Ferdinand trembles !! He
learns tha, soon Lima viii. disburden her
self of her oppressors and, checked only
By a feeble garrison, will shake off fihe-yoke
of seryitude and raise the standard of Gber-
ty. The inirigues Of imbecility in Europe
will be answered here only by our bayonets


A new courier this evening announces
that all who are not slain are prisoners
Osorio alone has escaped, and ii is still ex.
Peeted that he will be over,aken--in fine,
as the hero OF our country says in his des-
patches, "she enemies Of Chili e.riss no
more"


On the 5th OF April, 1918, on the plains
OF Maipo, was fought this ever memorable
action, the consequences of which are in
calculable.


The u. S. Commissioners were al Blu
enos Ayres when the above news was re.
ceived and proclaimed, and were to leave
there about the first of May on their return
home. Il seems easy to conjecture what
their report and Recommendation will be.

in possession Of a general order issued by
General Jackson, after the capture Of Pensa-
cola and the Spanish Fort at Barancas. By
