The Spanish General Olaneta, to the dis
appointment of many hopes, still holds pos
session of Upper Peru, and has issued two
proclamatons declaring his resolution to de
fend the country above the Desaguadero to
the last extremity. He speaks with conf
dencc of the valour and spirit OF his troops,
and expresses the most loyal sentiments for
which the Bucnos Ayres Argos compliments
him, BY putting the picture of an ass's head
over his proclamations, with "pipa el Reg"
proceeding from the mouth. In the procla
nation to the inhabitants, he accuses of per-
fdy the officers who c.pitulated to the pat
riots, and says "Field Marshal Pho Tristan

cause some further difficulty in Peru
