There is very little pilitical news from Chili. The
Government has not yet been able to organise a new
Cabinet—all the attempts made by Sc. H. ltrmeneta to
hit effect having failed, and resulted in his resigning the
task Until the forma ion of the new cabinet, it is
impossible to fumee the line of policy the Government will
adopt. It is said that the President will grant an amnesty
durin the eelebration cf the anniversary of the Inde-
pendence ; indeed, the measure is such a popular one that
it wou'd be impolitic to withheld it. The Legislative
, Chambers dissolved on the 31st of August, but they
will be caUed together egein in extraordinary session
as soon as the cabinet is formed. This measure is
rendered necessary, as the estimates have net yet been
voted. The approeehiog festivities of the 18 h have inter-
fered with business, which is comparatively at a stand-
still. The scarcity. of money has also 'ended to paralise
trade. 0, od bills are with difficulty discounted at l i per
cent. The effect of the I rge exportation of coin has, for
sem° time, been felt in commercial circles. During the
first eight months of this year $94.D,046, in silver, and
$267,821 in gold, has left the country, besides the
amount sent from Copiapo to the Argentine provinces.
which brings up the total export to over $2 000,000
The value of the exports from Chile for the
first six months of the year amounts to $3,813,473
Ths appeal of the Peruvian Consul, soliciting the seizure
of the guano exported during the time the islands were in
the hands of General Vievie h.s been disallowed. The
s of the Santiago and Talca telegraph are being laid.
Sr. Jagaez Schazuann has been' recognised as Consul of
Swi'zerland in the port of Valparaiso. Great preparations
have been made for the celebration of the anniversary of
the Chilian Inthpendence on the 18- h and subsequent
days, during which fine all business is suspended.
Verious attempts to subvert the government have been
made in Bullvis, but according to the newspaper accounts,
they have been unsuccessful, the people adhering to the
legitimate authorities.
Affairs in the south cf Peru still continue without
change. Castilla, with nearly 5,000 men, has not ventured
to a'tack Arequipa, and all the efforts that have been
made to bring about a pacific termination of the war have
failed. Castilla was about to move with his forces to
the heights of Resoleeta, and a decisive blow was expected
to be struck early in this month. A few skirmishes had
taken place without much advantage on either side.
