The city stands near the Cordillera of the coast, or western Cordillera, which is here much broken, and a good mule road passes over it to Arica. The town is built at the foot of the mine- ral mountain of the same name. Its figure is a crescent; it is well laid out, and its houses are regularly of one story, it has 5 convents. Its markets are well supplied, and with fresh fish from the ocean. The population is about 15, 000 ; its climate is cold, and it is much exposed to the winds which blow f...rom the Cordillera. The cattle and sheep of the neighbouring districts are very fine, ind particularly the latter. Although the mines ire generally poor, yet that of Popo (distant from the city 18 miles) previous to the revolution; loo yielded annually 60, 000 lb. Of silver. There is a manufactory here of bridle bits, which is pretty ex- tensive; the price of iron of which they are made is enormous, being sometimes $80 for 100 pounds. There is also a manufactory of copper ware, and a famous powder manufactory, which is supplied with salt petre from the neighbourhood, which af- fords it in great abuhdance.
