THE DAILY DISPATCH.

The GUASo QuEsTioS.-lbe most lmpoi-
tant news by the Illinois, arrived AT New fork
few days since, relates TO the settlement OF
the guano question. Lieut.. ellis came pas
senger in the Illinois, with dispatches 10 the
Government. The real character OF these de-
spatcbes has not been made known, but the
editor of the n. Y. Express, who has had an
interview with Lieut.. e.. ventures TO assure
the public that no further difficulty on the sub
ject need be apprehended. The advices from
the Lobos Islands are to the 10Th ult.. at which
time there were no American vessels there,
and only two English ships loading guano.-
The subJoined extract from the Express will
be read with interest:
The Peruvian Government had a naval force
for the protection of the islands, consisting of
steamer brig of war, and a schooner
There was also force on shore, consisting OF
more than two hundred soldiers, in garrison, 10
act as guard
As there had been no collision between the
vessels or people Of the two countries the ex-
element in Peru touching the claims set up
by the United States, which had previously
existed, had pretty much died away.
Commodore McCauly tat Cajla0 on the 18Th
altimo) was to sal for tho United States on
ihe next day. The fact that his presence IN
those waters was deemed no longer necessary
IS looked upon as all but conclusive evidence
1hat whatever difficulty was at first apprehend-
ed has now blown over.
The dispatches from the American Charge
At Lima are understood TO contain PROPOSE
lions from the Peruvian Government of such
nature as hardly TO leave doubt of final
settlement Of the question on basis saisfac-
sorry and honorable 10 both parties.
Lieut.. ellis represents the political aspect
OF affairs in Chill and Lima as threatening in
The extreme. A revolution was impending,
and there was no saying how soon it would
break out. Every body was expecting it, and
every body accordingly seemed 10 be preparing
for it.
Lieut.. ellis. during his absence, has gath
cred many astronomical facts and made many
discoveries. which will be given to the public
IN detail before long.
