6 PERU, The Pierola Filibuster Expedition Com- } pletely Routed. Republican Triumph on the Bat- tle Field of Torata. H w S E DETAIL By FIGHT. The Nation Peaceful, Loyal and Hopeful. Liata, Dec, 15, 1874. The last sail of the Talisman filibuster expeds tion is furled, and Pierola, aeieated and routed, has taken his departure, So much the be‘ter. The leading Opposition journal of Lima says this morning:—“‘it is evident that the people of Pera, regard with disfavor all attempts at armed revo- muon.” THE COMMAND AND OPERATION OF THE ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC. Ag soon as the supreme director of the war— | the President—arrived at the camp of Colonei | Rivarola he ordered ap attack to be made on the outlying fortificatious of the enemy. Tbe heavy | guns which were orought up frou the war steam. | ers Huascar and Union soon effected serious | damage on the improvisea ramparts oi Lhe revels, | and early on the morning of the 6th of this monta | the Presideat (I have already stated that Pardo had assumed the chief direction of the cam- patgn) proceeded to decisive measures. Aware, | as he was, of tne rapid approach irom Puno of tne | divisions under te command of Montero, and the probability of their momentary rival on the heights of Buena Vista, overlooking the principal positions of Pierola, Mr. Pardo decided upon an endeavor to attract the attention of the rebeis to the front of their stronghold, and by a feint to cause them to rally their lorces in the breastworks on Los Angeles, leaving Montero at liberty to gain bis appointed station in peace and comfort, Consequently General Buendia, the officer in charge of the government troops, under the super- vision of Pardo, sent a column out to flank the enemy, or at least to pretend such a movement, approaching the formidable barricade raised on the summit of the tili Los Ange.es from the south, and to hold the Invaders while another manceuvre was to be executed from the camp itself, tne troops to advance .rm the fleids oi Charsaguas to the base of an eminence where the revolutionary advance guard Was in waiting. THE ADVANCE. The colamn first referred to, composed of a sec tion of artillery with four cumponnders, alew cay. | airy, a detachment of tue iin® regiment Callao and some gendarmes irom Tacna, fougnt their way steadily through a difficult series %1 defiies and Mountain passes until they arrived at a point 800 or 900 yards distaut irom the parapets. These works, | at may be here stated, were built of loose stoues aud rocks, aud in many places irom three to four feet thick, being o/ suMicient beigit to soleld their deienders, ‘Ihe progress of this Corps was at- tended with great danger, From every sheltered point, and there were many, the sharpshooters uf the enemy poured down a (earful fire irom their Remingtons, and from a disagreeable instrament calied a tripod gun, which carries a ball nearly the size Ol a hen’s egg. Nevertheiess the government | troops persevereu, halting every DOW and then to | give the artillery an opportumity to use their cun- non, and whenever tue iriai Was Made @ percepti- bie efect followed. THE REBELS DISPLAY GREAT BRAVERY. As Pierola bad no ficid pieces, and as bis men Were already somewhat demorahzed Irom the un- intermitting cannovade irom the heavy ship guus mounted near Rivaroia’s encampment, the redeis bioke and fled whenever @ ball wnhistied over | them or ‘ell in their vicimty, but vallantiy came ack to their stations when the fire was over. THE DRCISIVE MOMENT—saTTLE. The government troops coutinued advancing, roteciing themselves with their Winchester car- ines, the favorite arm oi the Peruvian execa- tive. The ovject, as nas been ovserved, was uot Wo assault the revolufiouista at the point of the Dayonet, merely to keep them well emp oyed toward the jront, while the divisious from Puno were rapidly nearing the scene of action. Meanwhile the remainder of tne troops upder Kiva‘ola—comprising the line regiment Pichiocha, few compauies of National Guards | and some skirmishers irom a regular regiment of cavalry, jormed into line and galiautly auvauced Over the exposed piain commanded by the heignta crowned by the revel intrencuments. At the oase of these bils the soldiers opened a risk fire on the enemy, wune, at the same moment, the cul- umn aiready mentioned was actively engaged on | the southern flank, dving all that Was possibie and uoing it weil, to divide tne attention of the Jolowers of Don Nicolas de Pieroia. The ueavy | guns were of wreat service, and che barricades were {vund somewhat uncom.or-anie. Aiter an eight hours’ compat tne government forces were ordered W retire, but with tae most | extreme difficuly could be drawn off the ted; the Natwpal Guards of Lima 7) and the regiment of tue line, Pichincha, aithongn Jacking cartridges, sto d firm for more thaa bali ao hour, wita their muskets grounded. re- ceiving the fire of the euemy apd awaiting a fresh supply Of ammunition, Waen tuis arrived they discharged a few more volleys av the rebels and then went dack to tueir tents in good order. j 4 GOOD DAY'S WORK. | The resalt of the day’s work was cheering to the government. Mr. Paruo, General Buendia and Generai Freyre, tbe Minister of War, were ever among their troops, animating and encouraging | them, Uf such action Was necessary, lor, accordin| to the accounts received, the soidiers manifeste: oo great a desire to cuarge the imtrenchments of their opponents. The losses were heavy on both sides; but fortunately Do officer of high rank was dangervusiy wounded. OPKRATIONS RENEWED. Early the next mornng, the 7vn inst,, the divis- jon, under tue orders oi Kivarola, assauited the Works of the rebels, but, mucu to their astonish- Ment, It Was discovered that tne prize had disap- peared. Few moments passed, however, woen tie | sound vf distant cangovading broxe Upon the ears 0} the outposts, and It Was instautiy surmsed that Montero had arrived at his station, near Torata, | and Was engaging the enemy. Sucli, maeed, was the case. This brave Comwmander, a captain in toe navy, bat, uke most Peruvian officers, accustom to ali descriptions of hard work, nad struggle eown from Puao, over deseris, Mountains and rocky passes, through suow, wind and hail, without tents and alwost without pro- | Visions, Assisted by the gallant soldiers commanding the regiments 24 of May, Zepita and, the detacoment of artuilery from Lima, Cojonéis Smith, Caceres and Bontlas, with an additional division 0; Natiunal Guards trom Lampa, Chucnite and Arequipa, ted oy Colonel Belisario Suarez, Montero arrived justin time at the mouth Oo! tue gorge opening eastward irom ‘Torata lo discover the enemy making the neces- sary MOVeMeNts Lo Oppose his eatrance. THE BATTLE OF TORATA, Deploying his men and opeuing @ steady fire from the guns, under Bonilaz, the rebveis were speedily disiodged irom their higher pusitions, and, sending his infantry to the front, Montero | svon bad the pleasure Of witnessing the total rout Bad discumfiture Of the invaders at the hauds of Smith, Caceres and Suarez, The combat lasted about three hours, and, when it was neariy over, the advance guards 91 Kivarola were seen afar of. But Montero, vy nimseli, gained tne day. It was @ battle tougot under some dificuity. | ‘TOTAUG Is At least 5.000 leet above the level of vie sea; [he soroene, or species of exhaustion, expe rienced from ‘he higaly rarefied atmospuere ren «lere hard work pearly imposstbie; nevertnel ihe troops of Montero, unaccusiomed bo the cii- mate and unacquainted with the place, drove tae | enemy into a corper and then totaly defeated tuem. THE ROUT WAS COMPLETE. Pierola and nis captains had comprenended that | their deleat was inevitaoe and fed vefore tae ba hers of their cause were lowered. Owing to t want of cavairy in the government army (and to Jew troopers a the disposaiof Mr. Pardo fad veen 80 severely tried that their horses were as good 44 useless) the leaders of toe revolt escaped, taking the road o tne desert to Bouvia. Escobar and Kogardus remained to the last. Thea, when ail was over, they likewise disap- peared, and with them, we hope, all possibilitie: of another Fevolution ior years to come.

Tue minutes of the previous meeting having been read and approved, OU mptrolier Green’s reso- | lunon was called ap ior action. Mr. WHEELER Suid he couid not vote for it, and moved that the resoiution be laid on the tale, a motion which was adopted by a vote of 3 wl, Comptroller Green voting in the nezative. THE REASONS, PRU AND CON, Mr. WHEELER tuen moved the fouowing pream- ble and resoiution :— Whereas the minutes of this Bourd are evidence ot the repeated efforts made by members ol the Buard to oviain Imiormatioa in reference wo the pubite funds and inve.est Wereon required to be levied vy taxation, and Wich informauon Was not furnisned by tue Comper ler; aud Wuereas in the revised estimate of tue appropr auton made by this Boar) for ierest p.yabie on we pub- Lie dev. 19 18/4 Was $5,900 0, and suosequen ly & Wrans- fer 01 $W.0X) Was mae for this purpose, aKing the tire appropriation ror tnterest for L4:4 , avubdle trom tax- auon 00; and whereaa i. is Dow aimined by the Comptroller that he has paid ior iuterest about $50,0) in excess of the appropriation made, Kesolved, Tuat, in the opinivu of this Board, the accion o: the Comptrolicr in thus ustag the tunus in ie treasury. not appropriated or trensierres tor the pur- pose with the coosent or authority of this Board, was an Act of admimstration in the finances oi the city wiuch this Board caunot sancuvon or approve. comptroler GRsEN—That contains statements that are untrue. The Comptroder presenied a statement. Mr. WHEELER—The minutes of this Board show | Tepeated requests which have néver been com- plied with. The Board in the revised estimate for 1874 appropriated $8,300,000 ior interest payapie from taxation up to the Slst day of Decemoer, 1874. Tne Comptroller approved of this appro- priation ior the purpose stated. Subsequent to the date apon which tuis approp: tation was made the Comptroiler submitted to the Board a resolu- tion to transier irom an appropriation of a pre- vious year $90,000, which, he stated, might be Tequired in addition to the amount imciuded wm toe estimate to meet the inierest jor the year, Making the entire appropriation for Interest irom taxation for i874 $4,390,000. I never heard it even suggested, until at the meeting oi the Board on the 22d inst., tiat @Ny sum IN Xcess Of $8,390,000 Was required to meet imerest, payabdie irom taxation, up to the Bist Decemoer, 1874, @nd wito 628 basis from Which to judge, | nesitute to accept tne theory that possibie contingeucics migut asise in 1875 to cause an increase in Lhe inverest-deariug devt, so | that the tuterest required w meet ive imcrease would ve $1,000,000.

The Board (neu adjoarned. MR. WHEELER'S VIEWS. A HERALD reporter saw Mr. Joun Wheeler, Presi- devt o1 the Tax \ommissivn and a member of the Board of Apportionment, yesterday aiteruoon Upon Fhe subject of the interest on the city devt, which Comptroller Green bad acted so strangely about, Mr. Wheeler said that tne course of Mr. Green was, to say the least, very extraordinary, and he had undoubtedly been guilty of misrepresentation to hum. Mr. Green bad stated, some days ago, to bim (Mr. Wheeier) that he would no. want more than the $90,000 additional to the $8,300,000 in- | terest upon the city debt, but that this would be ali suMicient, and so the Board understoud. Mr. Green nad not (ue least Tight to make a transier of a surpius jubd of $500,000 without the authority from the Board o, Appertioument, whose sole rigut it is to wake transiers trom pre- vious years. lve caarter states distluctly that show there oe any surplus irom & | previous ye it can only be transierred by authority trom the Board. Mr. Green nas igpored Our suthority in tuls Matter, as well as | iguored the law. He oas, besides, misstated to me | do | larger than last year, distinctly tue truth of the matter, 1 den’t see in What manner the Comptroller expects to get on while be respects neither law nor tue members of the Bard of wich ne luimself is a niember. As to the action of the Comptrolier in the represeuta- tions ue made to the Board, whatever nls views Were on the subject, they certaimiy were caicu- lated, and, in fact, aid deceive me, both as to the deb: and interest required to be paid on tue same. Board aione is the autnority vested by law to Wransier appropriations from previous years, aud the action of the Comptroiler in transierring by his own act, or using without transier, appro- Priations for previous years tor the purpuses of tae present, is a Matter which will re- quire jurther action either by this Board or by some other authority. As to the present estimate as @ whole, I desire to add that it is uot from uny iDerease of ex- | Peuditure authorized tn 1575—the expenaicures of | plained, | Was not jnstibed in a.iowiug the smount | propriation Of $9,000,000 ior the interest on the | city uebt.

In token of this intent the follow- ing circular, signed by several of the couvtry dem- ociatic members of Assembiy, has been sent out tu each one of the democratic Assemoly men out- side o/ tue eity of New York, viz. :— DgAR SiR—Che papers announce that the demo- cratic members of the New York city deiegation to the Assembly have recently eld a caucus, at which @ complete set of Dominations was made Jor the offices of United States Senator, Speaker anu Clerk of the Assembly, and written pledges exacted and Made io treat such pounations authoritative and binding, as if made by the tire vemovracy Of the State as represented in tie Assemoly, itnout expressing any judgment eituer iavorable or adverse to the worshy genue- Wen bamed lor the several pusltions, it seems to Us buat this course Of actioD on the part of the New York city democratic delegation renders it de-irable hat the country democratic members— al outside of the city ol New York—should, prior to the time for boiding the usual iegisiative caucus, meet jor consultation. Permit us to suggest tue ume and piace {or such meeting as follows, viz, :— Deiavan House, Albany, January 2 at eigut o'clock P.M. THE RURAL DEMOCRATIC PRESS. Tammany’s higo-nanded proceeding tas called forth from some of the democratic papers in the interior something even more dangerous to party harmony than a mere protest. Tne Rochea- ter Union is especially indignent, In an elaborate article, alter stating that the Democratic State Convention, 10 1871, passed a resolution that had in view the placing of Tammany Hall on tne same footing with democrats in the State outside of New York city, instead of being a separate organiza- tion, it says:— How both the letter and the spirit of the law were viviaied in the canvass preceaing the Democratic tate Convention of last tall need not here be rehearsed. Suthce it to say that, whuie fully recognizing and con- ceding the purity of character and motive of those con- troiling and acting with the Tammauy organizauon ot New York city, the condemned the factional course they were pursuing as in Violation of the iuw and at war wich ot democratic party what it said them it never abated one jot or tittle, but allowed the censure to ce: with the occasion | that caed it forth, in the hope that toere would be no cause for its Fenewal In the future. This hope, however, is not realized, Ih democratic Assembiywen of the city of New York, who number nearly oue-fourch 01 the “iemocratic majority ofthe House ot Assembly, ac- knowledging ailegiance to Tammany Hall or iocal or- gauization, above allexiance to the democratic party or State organization, have ‘segregated themseives. and, | duly ofhcered by ‘chairman, secretury, &c., have as: | suused to act as a unit as directed by & ma ority vote, | thus at ouce destroying the rightiu! independence and | power of the disirict representative and the district ¢ stituency, aud asuming a dictatorial tf nota hostile Utude to their eHow democratic Assembiymen and the constituencies of these iatter throughout the state. ‘Th.s proceeding is all wrong, and the aemocrauc journal or democratic individual is wanting in teaity to party the State From who does not deprecate itand trown it down.

On one occasion when the subject was being discussed last winter Jobn Goodman, Mr. Funk’s brother-in-law, observed thatthe old man would be killed some day for nis money, and served right, too.
