SPAM AND CRsi&~--From our late news from

probability Of war between Spain snd Chile,

Power in Peru. The Spanish feet has gone
from Callao to Valparaiso, 1t is reported, with
the intention Of obtaining by force indemnifica-
tion for the refusal of the Chilean government 10
furnish coal in her ports to the vessels of the
Spanish squadron. Such . demand on the
part Of Spain strikes us a. being both impu.
dent and unwarrantable. Why should Chile
be expected to assist Spain in an enterprise
avowedly undertaken for the purpose Of recov-
ering her supremacy In South America and
St Domingo at the cost OF tho existence Of
tho South American republicsi The Spanish
wars IN Peru and St Domingo had this object;

TIE SHIPBUnDMo TRADE.-Although the
effect of tho war was injurious to the ship
building interest by transferring most Of our
carrying trade to foreign bottoms, It was COM
pensated for by the activity impaired to 1t by the
orders Of the Navy Department, which kept It
busily employed during the last four years. On
the whole We believe that the business was
never better than during that period. Now it
is experiencing a revolution which win produce,
for a time, distress among it, operatives. The
reduction which the government ID making In
the navy L. throwing on the market larger
number Of sea-going steamers than the exist
ing demand calls for. This Is shown by the
low prices obtained for them at our leading
ports, the amounts realized In many instances
mot equalling the cost Of their engines. OF
course the effect Of these forced sales has been
to put an almost entire stop 10 shipbuilding,
and to keep large number Of operatives out
Of employment This state Of things, how

EvYxCrs OF PEACR-REvIvAL OF THE IsM.-
The war killed out or squelcbed for the time
being most of the fancifhl theories by which
the Northern mind had been previously occu-
pied and amused. Socialism, freeloveism,
Bloomerism, and o score of like doctrines
which had seized upon the minds Of idle peo-
pie, passed out OF discussion, and seemed 10 all
appearance dead and buried. Even the spirit
Of religious fanaticism was for the time abashed
and humbled In presence Of the dreadful mis-
fortunes which IL had assisted in bringing upon
the country. The war Is no sooner ended than
these elements Of social antagonism revive
from their chrysslis-like torpor. The parsons
are hard at work endeavoring TO stir up the
embers Of religious strife and persecution.
The Boston fanatics ore trying TO raise fresh
issues on the negro, not satisfied with having
rendered bis condition worse than ever And
now, just when wo have vindicated our man,

What, then, il the law of restoration which
he has submitted as his ultimatum to South
Carolinaf 1t Is very simple and very strong.
He holds that, as no State can 60 out Of the
Union, mono have gone out and that accord
ingly oil that is required of him in the late re-
bellious States is to put their loyal people in
the way to the full restoration Of said States in
their constitutional rights and privileges as
members Of the Union. Thus he starts from the
law OF suffrage existing In each of said States
just before they plunged into the morass Of
their experimental Southern eonfeteracy All
that they have done since in disregard Of the
constitution and laws of the United States Is
null and void, and in law goes for nothing.
He puts them back at the point where they left
off in 1861, and tells them they must recognize
the practical consequence Of their subsequent
course of folly, and shape their conduct to
suit the actual state of things existing In 1865.
They cannot be indemnifed for their losses in

Hc evidently regards It's downfall, too, as that

in favor of popular rights. He holds that the

generals in the Union army. The teuts
were old, and scattered about without much

was plain wall tent, not much better than

were sitting. On the lid of a mess chest
near them was the remains of very plain

in his dealings. When he had any OF the

rather more than would bs required of him.
