From TIE PAclric.-The barque George and
Henry arrived at Baltimore Tuesday, bringing
dates from Valparaiso to the Eth and CsqnimbO TO
the 10th June. From the Baltimore American
we condense the following intelligence. The
British steamer Chill recently struck a reef OF
rocks near Valparaiso; several lives were lost
and the vessel with great difficulty reached valpa-
raiso The Presidential Election was about TO
take place in the Republic Of Chill when the
George and Henry left Much excitement pre-
Pinto would be elected Peru was still suffering
from internal diss.nsons. Ths recent revolution
has boon quelled by President Gamarra. Gen
vivanco with his principal officers escaped TO
Bolivia. Such of his army a, were taken prison
ers were instantly shot. In the South OF Peru
there is great dissatisfaction with Gen. Gamarra.
He, of all the Presidents who have governed
Peru, seems to have paid the least regard to the
Constitution and laws OF any one OF them, and al
though the Peruvians are fully mindful OF his io-
mer acts his party ia still strong, and he IS popu-
lar with large portion of the people. He was
elected after an absence OF FIVE years having been
banshed to Corta Rica by Gen. Slavery. The
great body of the people appear to be in favor of
their tried friend and protector, Gen. Santa Cruz,
formerly President of Bolivia and the United Pro-
vinces of Peru uader one confederation, and who
with Generals Obresoso, Serdcna. Sierra md
others, were banishcd to Qsto by Gamarra,
where they still remain. The George and Henry
experienced heavy gales for nine day, when in the
vicinity OF Cape Horn. Several islands of ice
we're seen, and she sailed through large fields OF
thin ice.
ly There is one excellent prcsage of the re-
sui, of our City Election this fall the Wings
likely 10 enjoy the open, uns isguised malignant,
slanderous hostility of Benefits Herald. 1t has
usually pretended to be neutral, independent or
favorable, though never emitting an opportunity
To stab us through measures or our men. But
in 1887 we had the benefit of the Herald's dead
lies, opposition and were s,gmatised by ii as
the "usurers party" spectators, knavea, &c.
after the choicest fashion of its present arguments
" in support of President Tyler's Administration! -
The consequence wss that we carried our whole
ticket BY 1900 to $500 majority-'ar more thas
we ever had before or since. Like cause. will,
we trust, produce like effects The public is well
aware that that Journal advocates the right,
unless paid moro than it would ask for sustaining
the wrong.
70 We ask the attention of all our readers to
the testimony embodied in another column in re u-
taton Of the sanderous and deadly insnuations of
Yesterdays Sun, leveled at the integrity and hon
es,y of the Directors and Agents of the Washing
ton Temperance Benevolent Society in regard TO
their collections for asylum for Incbriates. The
yindica,ion is thorough and conclusive. Do not

OUR Trade WITH THE SANDWICH ISLANDS.
A late number of tho Boston Mercantile Journal
contains some just and forcible remarks upon the
efforts Of the English TO iniure and even destroy
the American trade with the Sandwich Islands,
they have already done upon the Northwest
Coast. Until recently the fur trade in that Sec
ton was the source Of large and profitable bust
ness to American vessels but the Hudson Bay
Company have completely driven them of. and no
American ship has made voyage thither for sew
ernl years. Our national right 10 tina; portion OF
our territory has almost been waived, and our
trade there has been completely ruined, By the neg
lee, of our Government to provide for the vindca-
ton of our honor and the protection OF interests.
The Journal puhshe. extracts f-em letters ad-
dressed TO Boston merchants BY Respectable
house at the Sandwich Islands. stating that the
country is completely Inundated with goods of all
sorts, poured in b. the British merchants and sold
at extremely low prices with the avowcd inten-
ton of DESTROYING our trade, and advising them to
make no more shipments until favorable change
shall take place. They state that there are now
in those islands goods enough TO supply the mar
Ike, for year snd half.
