when it was carried that the interest on the deben-
tures for the proposed loan of 35,0001., to erect new
public buildings, should be 5 instead of 6 per cent.,
and an appropriation of 5 per cent. on customs
duties to form a sinking fund to meet the payment
of said debentures.

Grenada has been visited with heavy showers of
rain and winds from various points ; the crops,
however, had improved than otherwise ; several of
the estates had commenced sugar making, but the
general crop, is not expected to be entered upon
before February or March. Her Majesty's screw

A great strike has been made at the head waters
of Wolf Creek. A gold-beating quartz lead, 92
inches in width, has been discovered by a company
of three men. The gold is plainly visible in streaks,
threads, and globules, to the naked eye. The quartz
is of the kind known as rose-coloured. The com-
pany have sunk on the lead to the depth of 20 feet,
and found gold from the croppiiigs to the bottom of
the shaft.

Advices from Porto Rico state that there will be
a fair average crop of sugar this season, although
several plantations were suffering from want of rain.
In some districts cane-grinding had commenced.
Several cases of yellow fever had occurred amongst
the shipping in the harbour of St. Thomas, but the
town itself was quite free from the disease.
The struggle in St. Domingo continues without
any greater result than the raising the price of pro-
visions hi Porto Rico and the adjacent islands. The
general opinion is that the Spaniards must abandon
field operations, and confine themselves to the oc-
cupation of one or two seaports.
From Guayaquil it is reported that the republic
of Ecuador is quiet, and already there is a marked
increase in the exports of cotton and other produce.
The President had returned from Cuenca, to which
province peace is perfectly restored. His excel-
lency intended visiting the northern ports of the re-
public before returning to the capital.
A new revolutionary movement broke out at
Carmarthen on the 11th, ending favourably for the
opposition party. The President, Nieto, sent in his
resignation to the Assembly, and this body elected
Dr. Noguera as his successor ad interim. The elec-
tions for president in the ensuing term were an-
nulled, and it is considered doubtful if new elec-
tions will take place. Order and tranquillity had
been restored.

Prosecution of the Bishop c f Moulins.

_._

Pin's, Jan. 12.
The illoniteter of this morning contains the fol-

" Monseigneur de Dreux-Brae, the Bishop of
Moulins, has believed himself empowered, on Sun-
day last, the Bth of January, to read from the pulpit
of his cathedral the Encyclical of the Bth December,
1864, even in the portions whose reception and
publication have not been authorised. In accord-
ance with a report laid before the Emperor by the
Minister of Justice and Public Worship, Keeper of
the Seals, and approved by his Majesty, legal pro-
ceedings have been commenced before the Council
of State against Monseigneur the Bishop of Moulins,
for an excess of his functions."

The following is the letter of the Bishop of
Moulins upon the subject of the Encyclical, ad-
dressed to the clergy of his diocese :
" Moulins, Jan. 8, 1865.

this morning,
"M. le Cure,—At the cathedral
after the Gospel of the solemn Mass for the Epiphany,
I communicated to the faithful the documents which
recently emanated from the Apostolic See. It ap-
peared to me further desirable to precede them by
reading the annexed. It will show you how, in the
midst of the difficulties with which you are acquainted,
I have endeavoured to reconcile my duties towards
my flock in the eyes of Peter and as pastor with
regard to yourself.
" Lastly, speaking as I have done, not in my
name only, but in yours, I have wished to tran-
quillise your conscience, and permit it to await in
peace the instructions I intend to forward to you
subsequently.
" Receive, M. le Cure, the, renewed expression of
my sincere attachment.

The elections for President of the Republic of
Salvador and for the Congress had already begun ;
the belief is generally entertained that the present
Provisional President, Signor Duefias, will be re-
elected by a large majority. The country's pros-
perity is progressing favourably. The forthcoming
cotton crop is valued at $1,000,000.
President Medina is showing great regard to the
governments of both Guatemala and Salvador, thus
refuting the rumours that had been assiduously
spread about his having formed a league with

" PETER, Bishop of Moulins.

" N.B.—This letter and the accompanying docu-
ment are not intended to be read from the pulpit."
" Allocution pronounced by Monseigneur the
Bishop of Moulins after the Gospel of the
solemn Mass for the Epiphany, Jan. 8, 1865.

Barrios.
The following items of news are from the Panama
Star and Herald :—The house of Representatives
began its sessions on the 25th. The President's
message is a lengthy document, entering into the
relations of Guatemala with foreign countries, and
the material and intellectual progress visible within
the limits of the republic. The expressions of the
President in regard to the Spanish-Peruvian ques-
tion are wise and guarded, showing sympathy for
the sister republic, but at the same time not forget-
ting the friendship existing between Guatemala and
Spain. Principally interesting is the part of the
neighbouring empire of Mexico, and the relations of
Guatemala and Central America in general with the
same. The President acknowle.dges that he is glad
an able and firm Government has been established
in Mexico, and that it is necessary for Central
America to come in very close contact with it, but
he repudiates the idea of a formal annexation with
the abandonment of the republican form of govern-
ment and of their sovereignty, as neither necessary
nor desired by him or his people.
VALPARAISO, Dec. I—General business is kept
dull at once by the unsettled state'of political mat-
ters on the coast; by the, unsatisfactory state of the
relations with Spain, and by the influence of the
stringent state- of the money market in England, as
advised by recent mails.
Even an unusually large number of foreign car-
goes during the fortnight has not stirred up business
in imports. In some of the principal exports of the
country, however, transactions have been on a large
scale. In copper nearly 50,000 quintals have been
sold ; in nitrate, about 90,000 quintals at rather ad-
vanced prices ; while in flour some 45,000 quintals
have been taken out for the Australian market. In
consequence of these transactions, charters for
homeward freight have been maintained, notwith-
standing the number of vessels to freight, and 3/. 7s.
is readily got for ore and nitrate to England.
This country is kept waiting in a state of the most
unsatisfactory suspense for some action on the part
of Peru in the Spanish question. Sympathising
with Peru, government some time ago passed a
measure declaring coal contraband of war, and now
by this time we have the vessels of the Spanish re-
inforcements in Chili waters, with every probability
that they will demand and enforce their rights to
have coal at some of our southern ports.
The solution of the Spanish-Peruvian question is
most anxiously waited for, that it may be known
how the country stands—whether we are to have a
war, or which will be most humiliating, an unsatis-
factory peace, into which Peru will be forced.
The new customs regulations which came into
operation on the 19th Nov. do not give general
satisfaction, and the merchants of Valparaiso are
preparing a protest against the new import duties.
A new Government bill has been approved by the
Chambers for raising in this country within two
years a loan of three millions of dollars. This amount
is required in addition to the loan presently attempted
to be raised in Europe.
COMMERCIAL.—Exchanges : on London, 60 to 90
days, 44d. to 45d. ; Paris, 4.70 to 4.75. Bullion—
Bar silver, per mare, fine, $lO 621 ; hard dollars,
8 per cent. premium. Flour, per bag, 100 lb.,
$2 37- to $2 50.
LIMA, Dec. 13.—Disgust must be the feeling
uppermost in the mind of any one interested in Peru,
and waiting for tidings of some settlement of the
Spanish-Peruvian question, when we say that an-
other fortnight has passed, and not one step has
been advanced nearer to a solution.
After all the fuss being made when last mail left,

" Our Holy Father Pope Pius IX., gloriously
reigning, has deigned to address to us a copy of the
Encyclical Letter, published by him on the Bth
December, 1864, the tenth anniversary of the dog-
matical definition of the Immaculate Conception of

the blessed Virgin ; together with a summary of
eighty errors condemned by him in various letters
and encyclicals issued since the commencement of
his pontificate.
" Wherefore, remembering with St. Ambrose,
that where Peter is is the church ;9 with St.
Jerome, that whoever does not gather with the
successor of Peter disperses ;' with St. Augustine,
that when Rome has spoken the case is decided ;'
and, above all, with St. Paul, that the justice of
the faith contained in the heart suffice not for salva-
tion if it be not followed by the confession of the
mouth ; and desiring, as is our duty, to give this
twofold testimony of our filial adhesion to the vari-
ous matters defined in the said Encyclical, and of
our absolute reprobation of the errors enounced in
the summary by which it is accompanied, we have
considered it our duty ourselves to read the said
letters from the pulpit of our cathedral church in
token of our submission to the word which binds
and looses, and • whose privilege is to be never
bound.'

"In equal obedience to the Holy Father we re-
serve to ourselves the subsequent fulfilment of
another duty, in showing to you, as time and cir-
cumstances may afford the opportunity, the danger
of the condemned errors, as also in announcing to
you the period of the jubilee and the conditions to
be fulfilled in order to profit thereby.
" This present reading shall also serve as a suffi-
cient communication of the apostolic documents to
our whole diocese, the publicity which the liberty
of the laical press has given them, having already
brought them to the knowledge of the faithful by
other ways than the accustomed channels of the
ecclesiastical hierarchy."

although the Spanish squadron had lost the admiral's
ship by fire, although it was known for certain that
if Peru was not for ever after to be laughed at for
her idle threats and want of action, now was the
time to execute such threats as she had been making
for some time past, before the Spanish reinforcements
should arrive, yet to this hour nothing has been done,
or even attempted to be done. It is now said that
the South American Congress have interfered
to prevent war till they have tried what they can do
by further negotiations, and here the matter rests.
By a small steamer, the Hannay, from Valparaiso,
chartered by the Peruvian consul here, and sent on
direct to Callao with news of the Spanish squadron,
we learn that the first of the frigates, the Berenguela,
of 30 guns, had arrived at Valparaiso, and that the
other ships of the reinforcement squadron,

Her Britannic Majesty's ship Charybdis, Captain

vember, bringing two of the mutineers from the
John Stephenson, as prisoners. The Charybdis seems
to have had hard luck all the way up the coast.
After leaving San Francisco her fuel ran out, and
she was obliged to burn a number of her spars. She
was to remain at Esquimalt three weeks, at the
expiration of which time she will leave for England
with the crews of two gunboats and a few naval
pensioners.
