CHILI AND PERU.

We have advices from Valparaiso to the Ist, and
Callao to the 12th of November. Chili was tran-
quil. The dispute between the civil power and
the clergy had been happily terminated, the bishop
having been compelled to submit. Her Britannic
Majesty's screw frigate Tribune, 36 guns, had
arrived at Valparaiso, after a long passage, from
Rio. Business was rather slack in Valparaiso, and
freights difficult to be got. Mines in Copiapo ere
doing a middling business, and the railroad is
being extended into the heart of the mining dis-
tricts, to facilitate the expottition of the ores.
In Peru some agitation in favour of Vivaseo
seemed to be spreading in Ariquipa. Troops had
left Callao to repress it. Business was very slow.
H.B.M's screw frigate Esk, Captain Sir Robert
Maclure, arrived at Callao on the 4th October,
and left for Panama on the 11th. The same day
Admiral Fourichon, commander in chief of the
French naval forces in the Pacific, gave up his
command into the hands of Admiral Lugeot. The
next day Admiral Fourichon left Callao, accompa-
nied by the officers of his staff for France, on board
the English packet Limo. He was saluted in the
warmest manner by all the crews of the French
ships in harbour. The crew of her Britannic
Majesty's frigate President joined the French in
the manifestations of regret on the departure of
Admiral Fourichon, through the gallantry and
kindly feelings of Captain Frederick.

FIRE ON SHIPBOARD IN THE QUEEN'S DOCK

Yesterday evening, a report was made to the fire police
authorities, in Temple Court, to the effect that a serious
fire had broken out on board a large ship lying in the
Queen's Dock Basin. The idea of a fire among the shipping
in any of our docks suggests fearful forebodings as to the
consequences ; for, should a ship burst out in a sheet of
flame, there is no exertion which could arrest the
progress of the devouring element, every thing
around being of an inflammable character. Having reached
the scene of the reported fire, we found that the ship was the
Ides, commanded by Captain Wescott, which arrived here
from New Orleans on the I Ith instant. The Ides is a
ship of about 700 tons register, and is owned by Messrs.
Klingendu of Rumford Place. The Ides was in the act of
discharging her cargo, cotton, and being permitted to have
lights on sufferance," a lamp was used. One of the bales
having struck the lamp it broke, and the light came in
contact with the cotton and spread with fearful rapidity,
so much so, that at one time very serious apprehensions
were entertained that the ship would ultimately burn
to the water's edge. Immediately on information reaching
the fire brigade, Mr. 'Hewett, with his engines, lost no time
in starting off, and on arriving at the Queen's Dock Basin,
immediate'y set to, and water being plenty, the hose began
to pour immense quantities of water on the burning ship.—
The fire, however, was entirely confined to the hold, and from
the greet weight of water which was poured into it, the ship
soon heeled over to the larboard side. With the view of pre-
venting the total destruction of the vessel, it was determined
to scuttle her on the starboard side, this was, after consider-
able labour, f ffected ; but as she was lying on the other side
it became necessary to secure ropes to the foremast, and by
that means haul her over on the other side, so as tJ bring
the scuttled holes below the water's edge. After a consider-
able amount of labour end exertion this was effected.
By this time water was being poured into the ship
ou all sides, and ultimately the fire was got
under, and completely extinguished. The loss, of course,
will be considerable, as all the cotton i❑ the ship must be
more or less damaged, whilst it will take a pretty
considerable sum to set the ship herself all to rights again.

Mr. Alfred Burrell, formerly a London solicitor in good
practice, died in the Walworth road, London, a day or two
ago, from sheer starvation. He was forty seven years of age,
and having no home, spent the most of the night walking
about the streets.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1856.

THE DAY'S NEWS.

Yesterday lour worthy stipendiary magistrate,
Mr. Mansfield made a most important statement
from the bench, respecting " Christmas Prize
Lotteries." For some time parties in town have
been getting up these schemes, but intimation
having been given to the government, Mr. Mans.
field has been instructed to take cognizance of the
affair, and to have the parties getting up these
lotteries prosecuted to conviction, when by virtue
of an act of George 111., those found guilty
will be sent to prison for three months as
" rogues and vagabonds." From the emphatic i
manner n. which Mr, Mansfield made known the

illegality of these eating and drinking" schemes,
it is quite evident
that he will not hesitate to put
the law io force. We believe that some of the
parties who have originated these Christmas treat
lotteries had no other than bona fide intentions, and,
therefore, we cannot help thinking that it is a case
- of extreme hardship upon them to come forward just
at the last moment to stop those of the present year.
Such matters cannot be got up without some cost,
not to speak of the time and trouble bestowed
upon them. All this is thrown away. The
tw, whatever it is, should be obeyed, hut to
to adopt its observance the authorities ought by no
In cans to practice a course which savours very much
i
of petty tyranny. Some of these lotteries are n
their third or fourth year, and for the Government
to permit them to be carried out for that period
without any intimation, such as that given by Mr.
Mansfield yesterday, and to allow those of the
present year to approach within a day or two of
completion without any notice, is not a line of
conduct which we can approve. How the parties
