EETTLnEENT OF THE GUANo QuEsTION.-We pub
lished on Tuesday, very important letter from our
correspondent at Lima, in Peru. It appears thattha
"hasty" letter of Mr. Webster to Captain Jewett.

ment, to load his vessels with the guano Of the
Lobos islands, in spite of the pretensons Of Peru to-
their possession, had reused the whole Peruvian nation
to arms, by land and The letter Of Mr.. Webster
got to Peru, via Panama, while the guaro ships
Of Captain Jewett and company have had TO round
the Horn, so that. by the time they set 10 the guanc
grounds, they will find them under Peruvian
blockade too strong to be triaed with. Nor will
Commodore McCauley be apt to attempt much in
behalf of the freedom of the Lob0s islands to all
corners for guano with a single vessel Of war, when
the islands are surrounded by Peruvian feet Of
dozen ships, ready for action, including several
steamers, I'D land reserve of eight ten thousand
men, This is good joke, but it will spoil good
speculation; for Captain Jewett's guano ships will
either have to buy the precious manure, or look
out for some and appropriated deposits.
Meantime, Don Jose Joaquin d'Osma, Minister to
Spain from Peru has been appointed special envoy
to our government, on his way out, to settle this
guano question on permanent footing He i now

ANOTHER COCKNEY CHARACTER COMING OVER
We ere informed, with great flourish, by some Of
the journals of this city, that are on the eve Of
being honored with the society of another dstin
guished stranger. The newspapers, the itterateus,
the ballad writer's, and all the gems desprt of this
metropolis, who are ever ready to abnegate their
pretensions to w.t. literature, originality, or
common sense, by the toadyism which they exhibit
to every foreign celebrity are on this occasion also
making great fuss and manifesting considerable
nervous excitement for the advent of the conner
who is neither less nor more than Mr.. Thackeray
author of Pendennis, and "the natural history of
bores'' With respect to the latter work, we may
say, on PEASANT, that it will not be complete until its
author has sketched and added to it the "Jeemes
Plush" characteristics Of those self same literary
toadies. Mr. Thackeray, we understand, comes in
the train of Mr.. Abbott Lawrence and it is said he
has been engaged to deliver a series Of lectures
before the Mercantile Library Association Of this
city. Several other similar old womansh societies
throughout the States are also prepared to solicit
him to lecture in their respective cities and towns
Thus pu1s are heaped on puffs to swell the impor-
lance and magnify the literary accomplishments Of
this cockney author, who no doubt will chuckle in
his sleeve at the adulations pad by a set Of MIN
compoops to genius such nc his.
1t is very strange that certain people on this side
Of the Atlantic are so ready all occasions to de-
preciate native talent, by paying mean aattery
to any kind of claptrap humbug that comes to them
with the stamp of the Old World upon II. Mr..
Thackeray is an amusing, comical, cockney writer.
A literary mob himself, he felt quite oompe.
tent to write the history of snobs in general. But
into any Of the higher regions Of literature he has
never ventured, combining himself solely to such writ
ings as grace the classic columns Of the Pick.
There might be some excuse for our giving Factoring
receptions to such writer's as Nscaulay, Bulwer,
Dickens, or even James, of the SOLITARY horseman
schools but as for sirg Thackeray, it is just about
as ridiculous as If the authors Of that hoax Owed
down into the oyster cellars freauented by our
musical critics. and seized upon one Of that contra
erpity to DO the subject Of their hussas and con-
rrS tuations.

MADEMOIsELLE DROUEr-DUNNING FOR A BA-
LANCE We take this mode Of reminding our late
correspondent who seemed to take such an interest
in the fortunes Of this beautiful danseuse that he i,
our debtor to the tune Of 1885, which we request
him to fork without any unnecessary delay.
He asked us to give Mademoiselle Drouet puff of
the value of five dollars over and promised to be
responsible for the deficit. We did not give her a
mean, contemplate notice. such as that triae
might warrant-three or four Irish chambermaids
would pay sum equal to it for stating their
accomplishments in an advertisement we wrote
of her in such a complimentary, though truthful,
style, as was cheap az five hundred dollars, the
price we set upon it. It's effects were quite mani
fest on the evening following the publication of our
remarks in stimulating the energies of the dansese.
producing increased interest in her perform.
aDce, and procuring for her showers Of bouquets
and most liberal amount Of plaudits. On
that Same evening we understand that the
praise we conscientiously bestowed on her, and
which Mons Carduaa thought might be paid for
with the paltry sum of Ave dellars was worth to
her. in bouquets alone, not less than twenty dollars
On the following night, Ndlle. Drouet, melted to
still further e1ertion by remarks, surpassed al
her previous achievements in the dancing line, and
made the young men almost crazy with admiration
Of her.
Now, having with such happy results performed
our part of the business, we expect Mons Carduan
the nom de plume, which the writer assumed,
to come up to the scratch honoraby, and discharge
the balance still due on that account. We know
him very well. He is wealthy, and can well af-
ford to to be liberal in this matter. He will par
don us for thus dunning him for the amount Of his
Indebtedness to US, and will permit US to request
that he will Immediately pay over to us the SUM Of
$495, which the various charitable institutions OF
the city anxious to receive the moment he forks
out. There is the lying-in hospital, lthe orphan
asylum, the half-orphan institution, the deaf and
dumb establishment, and various other institutions
of similar kind in the city, which are awaiting
this dividend from our fund; and we trust, there
fore, that for the sake of humanity if not for that
of common honesty, Mons Carduan will no longer
delay in RENTING to us the amount of our claim
against him. We expect a check for the amount
to-day, without fail.

TIE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT IN rHB STATE OF
NEW YoRK.--It win be in the recollection Of our
readers, that the New York State Temperance ALI
ance, at Of their meetings in this city, passed
resolutions to address letters to the candidates for
the Office of Governor. requiring them to pledge
themselves to the support Of Maine Liquor law for
this State Before recent events took place, expo-
ding the teetotal movement, and revealing its true
character to the world it would not have been sur
prsing if the candidates for the governorshp of the
State or other candidates for office, had been i'm
posed upon by the specous appearance Of the hol-
low humbug, in connection with which Barnum cut
such figure. They would have probably regarded
the party as very formidable one, possessing the
balance Of power and able to turn the scale at will
to either side. But the election in Maine has de.
nonstrated that the agitation had no solid basis to
rest upon-that it was built upon quicksand-and
that the liquor law could not stand the test of OK
perience. The result has shown that there is ma
orty Of the people in that State against the tyran
nical enactment, and that in very short time it
will be repealed The reaction has taken place
in this State, and nobody dreams ofthe passage
Of Maine law.
Both in the State Of Maine and the State Of
New York, the movement went ahead by appeals
TO theignorant, and by frightening people from their
proprety under the apprehension and terror ofbeing
called drunkards if they did not lend their counte
nance and support to the cause of the fanatics But
upon mature reflection, and from sober second
thought, men came to the conclusion that the whole
thing was a mockery, delusion and snare
that there was not one per cent Of the popu-
lation who drank to excess-that ninety nine
out of every hundred were sober temperate
men, though they might occasionally drink
glass of wine other lquor-and they made
up their minds that it would be the extreme Of
folly for the ninety nine, in the hope of reforming
one, to surrender their liberty and sacrifice what
ever enjoyment they might derive from the ma
deratD use of brandy, porter, ale or wine, to the
madness of few fanatics, the selfish schemes of
the knaves who allied themselves with the meve-
ment, in order to bring their before the pub
ic, OF to enable them to sell themselves to the
highest bidder. The movement was startedin order
that the leaders might be bought off by the poll
ticans of the two parties, either for much cash
down, or for a share of the nominations Accord
ingy, we find some of the actors in the farce now
forming coalition with the politicians up town
and going in for the spoils.
We trust, therefore, that if any letters should be
addressed to either OF the candidates for Governor
by these honest worthless they will treat them with
the contempt they deserve.
