   • summary: I have to-day tendered my ultimate resignation to the Government of Chili, and am not at this moment aware that any material delay will be necessary, previous to my setting off, by way of Cape Horn, for Rio de Janeiro, calling at Buenos Ayres, where I hope to have the pleasure of meeting you, and where we may talk further on this subject; it being, in the meantime, understood that I hold myself free to decline--as well as entitled to accept--the offer which has, through you, been made to me by His Imperial Majesty. In the interval between this recognition of my services and my return to Rio de Janeiro, an unfortunate change had taken place in the Councils of His Imperial Majesty, introductive of persons more favourable to the interests of Portugal than to furtherance of the judicious measures contemplated by His Majesty for the consolidation of the newly-constituted empire.

   • summary: Of these the most unscrupulous was Zenteno, who, previous to the revolution, had been an attorney at Conception, and was a _protégé_ of General San Martin--carrying with him into State Administration the practical cunning of his profession, with more than its usual proportion of chicanery. The Chilian force amounted to 4200 men, General San Martin, to the great disappointment of General Freire, being nominated Captain-General--the force under his command was designated the liberating army _(Exercito Libertador)_.

   • summary: Others have attributed this decrease to the number of indians who died in the mines, being driven there by the laws of _repartimiento_, distribution, and _mita_, temporal labour: these also belong to the first years after the conquest. this game is called by the Spaniards _chueca_, and is similar to one I have seen in England called bandy.

   • summary: The old man informed me, that he was a native of Guayaquil; but that he had resided on this spot for more than fifty years, on which account the natives of the country had surnamed him _taita_ Piti, father Piti. They also form _balsas_ of them; for this purpose, they tie together as many as make the middle of the balsa, about two yards in circumference, which they taper to a point at each end; they then shape it like a crescent by winding round it ropes of the totora.
