Tree man, July 20. Most excellent Sir T send you a design of the flag which the Amazon lady Juana Azurduytook near La Plata, about 11 leagues to the eastward of Chuquiaca, in the action referred to by commandant don Manuel Acansin Podilla, whose modesty prevented him from rendering this glory to that lady, who is' his wife ; but it is evident to me, from the statements of others worthy of full credit, that he with her own hands wrested from the standard bearer this ensign of tyranny, by ihe force of her valor and the superiority of her skill in warfare, so uncommon to her sex. The Spaniards, who make a parade of their cruelty, who spill the American blood in our days so profusely as to convince us, by their acts, of the truth of the narrations of Bishop Las Casas, which might otherwise appear fabulous, excite and aggravate the ly wicked one in particular, that the more she prov okes our ha tred, the sooner will South America cease to be a prey to her vile cupidity 1 reeommend to
