VALPARAISO, Tuesday, July 81, 1855.
Winter is passing away already, having proved far
les severe than that of last year, Quite number Of
vessels from the United States have been damaged in
gales Of wind on the coast and been sold for benefit Of
whom il may coIcern--underwriters, suppose. But
these have generally been transient visitors unac-
quainted here or old craft, such as never ought to
have ventured round the Horn. Probably most Of
tncee have seen California and expected 10 re-
turn They are purchased here, baptized with Oppo-
si'ion names, Santa Marie &C., and become nq.
toaal eesse of Chile for years afterwards o: uqtl
they lay their bones among those of the sauran mon
teri Of the coast.
These sales Of vessels add considerably to the labos
Of our worthy Consul, Gen. Merwin, whose pay under
the new consular law is 20 limited 10 preclude the
employ merit of clerk, and who consequently has all
his duplicates and duplicates to make out himself All
ciizebs Of the United States here regetting TO
learn that both Gen. Merwo of this place, and Mr..
Crosby Of Taloab uano with their families, are making
arsDg emcnts TO return home their salaries being al
TO- ether inadequate TO their support since the LIST OF
July, when the law took elect by win IN their pay mas
been reduced.
This ought MT 20 TO be. The English Consul here
has occupied his post for years past His pay large,
and his watchfulnts the interests and welfare OF
her Britannia Maiestys subjects ia this part OF the
world, unceotinr Our policy in some respects is in
feor to that of England in such mat ere. We arc in
fnct but expernenttrs yet in not few th0gs a. to
government II is bumisiing TO say this but on my
soul believe il is the truth. We have great many
talented men at home. l admit it all. Tue pay ola
Consul here and i'll other foreign pats-say $1,000 to
80 600 per aDnum as in Valparaiso and ralca1uano-
seems many they look az IT, large very large. IL
is large ~ compared with home Bar they forget that
every Thing here at California prices and has been
the past six years.
They for.et TOO, that experience is wanted; that
others are 20 be benefited not themselves alone; that
while in respects rotation in office is excel
lent thing, in other respects it is an "unm'Itiga'ed
"evil" We need abe representatives abro4c men of
tact character, If possib with fsmiieS TO represent
us socially intellectually, domesticsly among the
tione FL Chill this is eminently The gross i'm
morailies OF the people here need some reoake wnleh
oD representatives of nations like our own can give
i happy that OF pre- sent We have nothing 10 COM
PLAN OF IN these respe,ts The regret - that In future
this is likely o be cnaJ ged.
The English Government certainly manifest great
wisdom aud yea in prosecuting their mercantile io'er-
ests Ia every par, of the globe do not believe their
system will compare for a moment with our ow1; bat
