Csrrera, President of Guatemala, has again de.
termined to attempt the invasion OF Salvador WIN

self very POPULAR but unfortunately he has made
enemies by getting up revolution against tne e8l
mate President Of Nicaragua, and has already sent

tcyond the question of the guano deposits in Neil

Of the guanO lately discovered on tue coast IN
formty with the law Of 1872 which declares all
discoveries 10 be "public property" but has now
stated ia willingness to grant licenses TO load yea
sells ut formerly when applied for according to Gus
tom. IIouse regulations; and thus has, liz d great
me azure, sati-hef the public.
The claim OF $4,000, which, it is said the British
representatives In Chill are now instructed 10 en-
ioioe by order OF the Home Government has ex
cited he greatest indignation throughout Chili-no
merely among the natives but also among the Brit
sh residents The claim Is for damages for the Ices
OF an arm sustained by the young man Whitehead,
who had most mprudently aud, as most people
think unjusthably exposed himself bv bis nteIier-
ence with sentry IN the streets during the late
revolution

British merchants held 10 valparaiso, TO express
their feelings with regard 10 this claim and they
were unanimous IN condemnine it as most unjust.

British Charge d Af,ires to have taken up the mat
nj all, and although the Chill Government have
offered pay the claim under protest. and aiterwsrd
submit the question to the Home Government, 1t
mus, eventually iall to the ground.
