They are no oncer in Beaugency, and many troops which were sent forward to reinforce the fifteenth corps and subse.iuently to participate in the actions near Orleans, are again arriving here. From the reports of their officers, it seems the i lo.-ses in the two days' action were not ' nearly so heavy as was at first reported. report-ed. New York, 14. The Hrralds Lima letter of Sept. 14th gives the annexed details of a Coolie insurrection in the valley of Lupe, a hundred and fifty miles from Lima, on the plantations of Patiolea and Galpon. Nearly 1,200 Chinese were employed, and in the neighboring estates more than 4,0o0 of the Coolies were contracted. Several Sev-eral months since symptoms of dissatisfaction were noticed among these laborers, but the overseers and owners trusting to their authority author-ity and power paid but little ' attention to them. Unfortunately no precautions were taken against surprise. sur-prise. The Chinese were left in tranquility tran-quility and able to mature their plans. An agent of the estate had arrived from Lima, with a large sum destined for the payment of the laborers and the purchase of cotton. While this person, with the overseer, physician, and several other employes were at supper on the night of the 4th, the dining room doors were suddenly broken bro-ken open and a crowd of nearly 20u Coolies, arrnied wilh stakes and every imaginable weapon, burst upon the whites: and in les-i time than is required requi-red to relate it, had murdered them all save one, who being grievously wounded wound-ed fell under the table and wa thought dead. Sacking the house and securing the revolvers and rifles ou hand, the insurgents proceeded to ihe adjacent hacienda of Galpon, and repeated tne -ame bai barities. Not satisfied wth killing the whites tbey encountered, the most revolting atrocities were practiced prac-ticed on their dead bodies ; and delicate deli-cate women and children were subjected subject-ed to.-hamefid and cruel torture. The number of the Ctnue.se now amouiiud to -1,100, and their move-incius move-incius apreared to be direcied witu s. .me degree of intelligence by one who acted as chief, liaving secured all the money and valuables to be found ou ihe estate, a larger amount was anticipated antici-pated in the sacking of the village ot tiairav.a. In the meantime the owner of an estate that lay on the road to that village was notified by a tiieudly Coolie of the approach and designs ol the marauders. Hastily pla.ing his wife and family in the cfiapei belonging to the plantation, be, with another friend, strongly barred ihe doors, and received the advancing column with the tire of their rifles. The Chinese were vigoious in the attack, but unaccustomed un-accustomed to warfare With arms, they fell easily before the defenders of the chapel. Iu less than two hours these two brave men had killed and wounded wound-ed more than sixty of their assailants. So desperate indeed bad they become that a retreat was determined upon for the accomplishment of their design to sack the town. Here the inhabitants had time to make some slight piepara-tintis piepara-tintis tor defence. A barricade was erected at the entrance to the village. and furty men well armed were posted behind it to resist the assault. In a short time the Chinese, reiuforeed to the number of ..U(M. appeared in front and actually sent the leader to parley with the defenders regarding their surrender. sur-render. He hardly had opened his mouth when a well directed rifle ball put an end to hi - existence. The Chinese, Chi-nese, goaded to madness, threw themselves them-selves upon the barricade. The fight for a few moments was hand to hand, and the whites suffered severely under the knives and weapons of the assailants Soon, however, the power of gunpowder began to assert itself. The coolies retired re-tired to a distance and appeared to be deliberating upon their future movements. move-ments. At this juncture the defenders of the church, having placed the family fam-ily in a place of safety and found several sev-eral companions, appeared in the rear and commenced such a vigorous fire upon them that in a short time all order was lorgotten and the insurgents were in headlong flight. A telegram had been sent to Lima, and on the morning ot the Oth, the 1 prefect with two hundred soldiers ar-1 ar-1 rived at the scene. I he C linese had i dispersed to the mountains. The so-) so-) diers. after securing the few who could I be f.-und, started in pursuit by for jed j march.
