CHILI.

The followin g is from a Valparaiso correspondent :
" Since my last there has been nearly a cessation
of hostilities between the two contending parties
for the government of this country. Gallo still holds
Copiapo and Coquimbo. The Government is con-
centrating ill the troops that can be spared at a
place in the north called Illapel. Every effort is
being made to overawe Gallo by a show of forces ;
but when it is considered that one-half of the troops
are raw recruits, the result of an encounter still
remains doubtf ; and if the party in power were
as strong as they would make it appear, the revo-
lution would have been ended long since. It is now
a month since the battle of Serena, and yet nothing
has been attempted to make up for the disgrace of

There are also guerillas in the vicinity of Talca
that keep the country in a continual state of alarm,
although their doings are not so much to be dreaded
as those of the soldiery. who commit their depre-

this city, was lost on the coast near Carthagena on

and a portion of the cargo came on shore, and will
be sold for the benefit of the shippers. The vessel
is a total wreck. Mr. Birac died 48 hours after
landing, from exposure and fatigue.
The captain, who was part owner, lost his papers
and instruments. We have not heard whether the
vessel or cargo was insured. The cause of the
unfortunate loss was a leak, which, during a severe
gale, increased to such an extent that the captain
was compelled to beach the vessel, as the only
means of saving the lives of those on board, or any
portion of the cargo.

It is stated that the prospectus of a company will
be issued in a few days, for laying two telegraph cable'',
from Cornwall to Canada direct, and that the proposed.
capital will be £500,000.
