General Andre Santa Cruz, 1850. Portrait of Bolivian statesman Andrés de Santa Cruz y Calahumana. 'In 1829, a serious rebellion, that threatened irretrievable disasters, having broken out in the Republic of Bolivia, the friends of order appealed to their old friend General Santa Cruz as being the only man capable of re-establishing public tranquillity. His firmness and mercy had the rapid effect of calming the excited spirits of the rebels; and, as soon as public confidence was restored, he placed the financial affairs of the country on a firm footing, and, in conjunction with wise counsellors, drew up the civil and penal codes, which were published within the period of his discretional government'.
