other providing for the distribution of the copies
of the Declaration of Independence now lying in
the office of the Secretary of 8tatc—which were
read and passed to a second reading. On motion
of Mr. Benton, the Senate proceeded to consider
the bhl reported by the Committee on Indian af>
Purs’ "to enable the President to carry into effect
the treaty of Ghent* to prevent foreigners from
firauing with the Indians, within the limits of the
Unite 1 States, and to secure the fur trade to the
citizens of the United Sta»ei.’* Mr. B. in addres-

which had existed between the United States and
the tribes of Indians west of the Mississippi and
the atrocities they had committed against the
whites, strongly enforcing the necessity both for
preserving the fur trade, and ensuring the safety
of our inhabitants of prohibiting foreigners from

LATEST FROM PERU.
In our .Jamaica papers we find late and
interesting intelligence' from Peru. An ar
ti de in the Courant of the 5lb inst.says:—
“We have been favored with'the perusal of
Bogota aiid Carthagena Gaz ttes. Advi
ces had been received from PeruoftheQfiih
Dec.—The detection of Riva Aguero, and
the successes of Gen. Santa Cruz In the
South, had prevented the President Bolivar
from opening the campaign.’ The auxiliary
division of Chili, given up by the Director,
composing 2500 men, had arrived at. Cal
lao, and wos to be followed by 600 cavalry.
Gen. Santa Cruz, with a strong column',
remained at Arica, and with the efficient
divisions of Colonels Lanz and Urdimcnea,
frdm the provinces of Upper Peru, kept
the enemy in check.
Col. Ibarra, aid-de camp to his Excellen
cy the Liberator, who has just arrived at
'Bogota from Truxillo, brings account of
the President having been obliged, in con
formity with the resolutions of the Con
gress, to employ force to put down the fac
tion of Riva Aguero; but that on his Excel
lency's approaching the troops destined by
Aguero for the invasion of Lima, one of the
officers of the latter proclaimed their union
with the legitimate government of Pe u,
arrested R. Aguero and Gen. Herrera, who
commanded their army, and delivered them
up- In consequence of this the 4000 men
composing this force were united to the
main body t and an end put to the intestine
discord that threatened the destruction of
the free portion of Peru. The Jwo Chiels
before named have been conducted to Guaya
quil to be sent to the Isthmus, and from
thence to Europe. '
These accounts agree with the public
papers of Lima, which mention the mat;ch
of the Liberator, with the Colombian troops,
towards Truxillo. The Peruvian Govern-
ment is now left to contend against none
but its external enemies, for the extermina
tion of whom the 1 Patriots of Peru will re
unite their efforts, instead of employing
themselves in silly and ’fruitless cabals.
Such is the triumph of reason and a popu
lar representation, against the force of which
all the attempts of ambition will be vain
Riva Aguero, who, so long as his conduct
was consistent with the public weliare and
the will of the nation, enjoyed the esteem
and high consideration: of the Peruvians,
will, from henceforth, hold a dishonorable
place in our histoiy, for having aimed at
setting himself above the national represen
tation, for provoking a civil war, and for
withdrawing the troops from their first arid
sole duty—that of combatting the enemies
of their country, and maintaining the pub
lie liberty.”

Police Office.—The proverb of “train up
a child in the way he should go, and when
he is old he will not depart from it,” is very
impressive and correct. While recording
so many acts of juvenile depravity which',
from the neglect of parents, too lrequcntly
occur in a populous city, we feci pleasure
in recording an instance of just sensibility
and principle. A person came to the Po
lice Office to complain that his coat was
stolen, and by a lad- His description led
one of the Marshal’s to believe that he
knew the young thief. He went out, 1 and
in a few minutes returned with a chubby,
fine looking boy, of about eleven years old.
The little (ellow sprang up on the examin.
ing bench and desired to know what he had
done. The owner of the coat said that he
was not the.thief. “You may go,” said the’
clerk. The lad broke out in expressions;
of indignation mingled with tears st the
suspicion- “Well; well, you may'go;” said
the clerk; “ let it end here.” “ No, no;
it muBt not end here,“ said the spirited boy;
“what will he said of me l A thief? See,
see how they ate looking at me through
the window ?” He stamped and wept bit
terly at the disgrace and exposure to which
he had been undeservedly* reduced, unti left
the office bent on having satisfaction.
A boy of such ah age, jxVid with a sense
of honour so high, and a spirit so command
ing, will make a fine man. Teach boys to
be ashamed of doing wrong, and they will
•act in a similar manner when wrongfully
’aepused.—JV? t% Nat. Advo.
