SOUTH AMERICA.

The threat Of the Spaniards to punish Chill by the
bombardment of Valparaiso and other cities, for the
continued non-submission TO Spanish demands, and
for the reverses which the Spanish feet has than
once suffered, has at length been executed so far
Valparaiso is concerned new proposition for
peace offered by Chill, rejected by the Spanish
Commander. Nufez, who, on March q, notified the
Military Commandant General Of Valparaiso, the Di-
plomatc Corps in Valparaiso, and the Consular
Corps in Valparaiso, of the approaching lombard
ment, allowing period of four days for the removal
of tue aged, of women, children, and non-combat-
ants.
The City of Valparaiso Is the commercial metropolis
OF South America on the Pacific, and her progress
during the last ten years has been such as to raise
hope among the Chilans that she would soon be able
to rival the large woild.ciies Of The ia and The New
World. The largest portion Of the commerce and OF
the property in the business part Of The city Is in the
hlnds Of the foreign residents. OF course oxiraor-
dinary efforts made by all the cgners and by
the diplomatic corps TO avert the Threatened disas-
ter from the city The oreigD residents requested the
Ministers, and in particular, those Of the United
States, England aud France to prevent the lombard
nent by force The representative of the two latter
countries refused to comply with this request; but
Gen Fitzpatrick declared himself willing to resist The
Spaniarls, if the English Rear-Admiral would share
the responsibility. This being refused, he de-
clined to act alone in q matter 50 grave. The bom'
bardment took place, and resulted in the destruction
of more than twenty millions Of property.
The civilized world has, from the beginning Of the
war been with rare unanimity against Spain. The
news Of the bombardment of Valparaiso will raise an
outcry Of Indignation such as rarely an act OF
modern warfare has raised before. Throughout
the American continent il will powerfully
strengthen the wish for bringing about closer
connection between all the American States for the
defense OF common American interests II will add
immense strength to the popular feeling against Euro
pean monarchies. We learn thatn Peru and Ecuador
the people threatened to massacre all the resident
Spanish and that in order to save them the Govern
ments found it necessary to anestthem.

NEWS OF THE DAY.
FOREIGN NEWS.

The steamship Scotia from Liverpool April "a, via
Queenstown April 90 arrived at this port yesterday morn
ing. bringing three days later news.
The London Times publishes dispatch announcing the
withdrawal Of the American Embassador from Berlin, and
military movement indicative of an approaching war.
The English Government however, officially declared TO
have no information warranng belief in The Tiiaess
statement, and later accounts from Vienna reasserted
pacific arrangements between the two countries.
In the English House Of Commons the debate on the
Reform bill was continued
The Italian Government had issued orders for the

GE RMANY.

Wo look upon the news from Europe, which is pub
lshed this morning in another column, fully con-
firmatory of the opinion which we expressed yestcr
day morning. The prospects of the preservation OF
peace arc growing stronger One single report is not
in harmony with the general tenor Of the latest dis
patches-a statement in The London Times to the eff
feet that the Austrian Government had resolved to
withdraw its Minister from Berlin, and that this meas
ure was to bc followed by the withdrawal
of the Austrian troops from Holstein. a military
movement which, The Times thinks the world will
regard as made in anticipation of war. The sensa-
ton dispatch of Yhe Times is hardly Of much weight,
for we already have an official announcement by the
English Government that it had received no inior-
nation warranting belief in the statement Of The
Times Accounts from Vienna, dated one day later
than The Tmess dispatch, reasserts pacific arrange
ments between the two countries, and in Frankfort
declaration Of peaceabe character had been given
by the Austrian Representative in the Diet
The detailed accounts in the German press of the
popular movement very interesting. The excite
mcnt Of all classes of the people over the situation of
the country seems to equal that Of 1ei8. The impe
rous need of unity for protecting the integrity Of the
national territory from foreign danger, and for con.
centrating the efforts of parties heretofore divergent,
for the promotion Of national unity are acknowledged
On all sides. Ia suttgardt the leaders Of the three
different parties Of Turtemberg have come to ton.
pete understanding The same is reported from other
States The points Of unity arrived at are: the
unconditional condemnation Of Bismark and his
entire policy, the right Of the people Of Sohleswig
Holstein to choose their own Government and the
vocation of German Parliament to act in the name
of the German people. There is studious avoidance
Of urging at the present moment other demands, be-
cause on them party differences still exist and every
manifestation of division in the popular ranks would
give new, encouragement to Bismark. From the
organs Of the press and the popular meetings not
voice is heard but cohdcmnatofy Of Bismark and if
there is any reliance ON the unanimous utterance Of
popular sentiments the outbreak Of hostlites would
add tens Of thousands of volunteers to army against
the present administration Of Prussia to choose their
own Government.
The report that Austria had acknowledged the
right Of the people Of Schleswig Hostein is not
drned. Harmony between the desires of the in

We quote the above, not to express any opinion
of an act which we have not seen, but to show how
complete cipher the delegation from this City has
become, in the eyes of those who elect it. The
World does not even ask how our City representatives
voted on this BILL nor what they did to expose its true
character and prevent its passage. They are no more
regarded as held responsible than though they had
been elected by China to make laws for Chinese Tar
tary. To all ntents and purposes, they regarded
by their political friends irresponsible and Of
