On several occasions in the various rebellions which occurred in South Americaduring the Spanish rule, men were appointed to quell rebellions, pacify countries, and restore order, and all without an army or any forcesbeing placed at their command. This was the case withthe celebrated La Gasca, who was sent from Spain to put downthe rebellion of Gonzalo Pizarro, and succeeded in so doing, though he left Spain without a single soldier in his train. In this connection it is to be remembered that n...one of the rebellions inSpanish America from the days of Charles I. (i. E. , the Emperor Charles V. )to those of Charles III. Were for the object of separationfrom the metropolis, but merely risings against Governors sent out from Spain. It seems that both in Peru and Paraguay the very name of the imperial powerwas able to draw hundreds of men to the standard of whatever officer helda commission from Madrid, such as that held by Garabito de Leon or by La Gascaon the Parana. At first Don Sebastian did not show himself in Asuncion, but sent out messengers on every side to summon soldiers, requisition horses, and collect provisions.
