Fourteen Days Later from Chile.
We have dates from VALPARAISO to Jan. lst.
A quarry of marble has been discovered neal
Valparaiso.
The Santiago and Valparaiso Telegraph line
has been purchased by Senior Jose Patrice
Acquayo, who took possession on the lst O
January, and expected to have the line in pros
perons operation in very short time. The
line has heretofore not succeeded, principally OF
account of the prejudices of the more ignorant
natives, who have cut the wires and broker
down the poles.
Eight hundred tons of American ice were
about to arrive as a beginning under contract
for the supply of Valparaiso with that article.
The laws requiring certain officials to regu
larly visit the public schools and report upor
their condition, heretofore neglected, is about
to be put in force.
The Archbishop of Santiago has issued al
edict which has attracted great attention ant
excited good deal Of fanimadversion. 1t seys
"We order all, without exception, under pail
of punishment at our discretion, besides those
imposed by the civil law, to- denoance before u
or our eoristddores. those who are by word o.
deed suspected of being heretical, excommunl
Gated, or otherwise Objectionable we exhortine
and praying in the Lord that every one wht
may have any affair to communicate to us, ma,
be free of all passion and may look only to til,
true glory of the Lord ~
The Diario, an influential paper, says =
What does an Archbishop desire :? He asks
exhorts and commands that in every parish
hamlet and village, a company shall be organ
lied to denOunce heretics and ercommu,licatet
persons. He asks that for the glory of God tha
man shall forget his honor, dignity, the respec
due to himself, to society, and to God himself
to become denouncer, spy, rancorous enc
my of his companions to whom he owes love an,
brotherly feeling.
"These are barbarous words which we woul,
never have thought to have met in an edct 0
high ecclesiastical authority in the full ligh
of the nineteenth century.
"Ihe peace of the republic, the tranquility o
families, the respect for the laws, the honor o
the Government, all the dearest interests O
society and of men are compromised by the
edict, and unite to demand of the civil authority
its suspension.
1t was hoped that the Minister of Public
Worship would order the edict to be suppressed
