TO THE DICTATOR OF PERU, FROM NAPOLEON, TO
MAKE HIN KING OR EMPEROR.
New YORK, May l0.-The Herald's Valparaiso
correspondence says that certain highly important
documents sent to the Gillian President by the
Dictator of Peru have been forwarded by Kill
patrick to Washington, showing that some time
ago a French stranger died suddenly in Lima, and
among his effects were found papers proving him
to have been French agent, coming with pro
posals to the Dictator Of Peru to make him king
or emperor, and promising him aid in men or
money from France, under the Mexican fiag-in
other words through Macmillan. This exposes
a scheme between France and Spain to make a
jump at all the small South American republics.
England approves, but does not help by men or
money.

disclosed but little if any, variation on the &C

Yesterday. Offerings of all classes still continue

stricted character than heretofore. The aggregate
sales to-day, however, amount to l4OO bales,

closed unsettled at previous quotations, which we
repeat, as follows, viz; Ordinary nominal, good
ordinary 3O@3lc., low middlng S2@S4c., and

Europe have been counteracted by the falling oil

RAILROAD FROM PLAcERvILLE.-The U.
S. Senate has passed a bill authoring (as
amended) the San Francisco and Washoe
Railroad Company to construct a railroad
from Placerville to the most feasible point
Of intersection with the Pacific Railroad
in the State. OF Nevada, and granting pub
lie lands to aid them. Mineral lands are
excluded, but the Company is authorized
to use the timber on them. After the
Senate had considered the bill, it received
the following short and sweet indorse-
ment from McDougall, who claimed the
paternity of the route thus:
1t was the accident of my opportunity
TO have heen invited to the city Of Placer
vile when the idea Of building this road
was first suggested. I went there at the
invitation of the people Of that part Of the
mountain country Of my own land. to
maintain what 1 thought in my engineer
ing science to be a true line of road, and I
believe it was on my advice that the
first survey was ever made on that
line. l have always thought it the
best line for communication between the
BAY of San Francisco and the East. / do
not care to speak-that is not my fashion
l have a purpose to accom-
plish but l believe this is a good bill, well
drawn, well amended, and should be
passed.

Nobly Done for Webster:

The hearth Jess with which our friend Webster
ofthe La Sale Press, seconds our movement to
run Parson Perkins for congress for the
state at largo, deserves our highest praise.
1t shows hin to be a man of infinite judg~
ment and 4iscernmeut. There is but one
fault we find with Webster in the matter. 1t
is the claim he sets up that the stupehdous
idea of rum ing P. p. for congress originated
with him The only way we can account
for Webster setting up such an extraordinary
pretension Is, that, when the idea was first
suggested to him it struck him as thing so
perfectly ma tural that he really imagined he
had thought Of it before. OF course we
claim all the credit for ourselves of putting
the ball in motion. Indeed, if our claim is
again disputed, we shall haye it patented.
Aud thus nobly the ball rolls on! All Or
tawa, all La Salle, all Livingston County is in
favor of Perkins RAINING sat large" Let him
''run as large not only in Illinois, but all
over the ceuntry-all over the world Let
him run at large individually, collectively
and promiscuously, aid never stop running.
Perish the thought Of his running in a single
district or even a single state let him run
in Illinois and in Maine; in California and
Cauada-indeed, as John Wentworth once
said of a proposed appolntee to some distant
conselship, . Yes, yes, send him by all
means the further off the better!'

l. s. Assessor for this district, that through
the exertions Of the latter, aided by NJ.
Cook, our member of Congress. IN important
concession has been obtained in the construc-
ton of the L. ). revenue laws in the matter
Of grain dealers licenses. The gist of the
esDondence, which is rather lengthy, is,
that whereas heretofore our grain dealers
have been obliged to take out license not
only for themselves, but for every buyer they
had on the streets, by this decision the one
license covers all. Again, heretofore, when
cur dealers shipped cargo of grain to a
broker in Chicago to sell, they were obliged
to pay tas on such gram as on sales, and
then the broser, on selling it, paid another
tax. The decision makes one tax sufficient,
The decision really saves a good many thous.
and dollars a year to the farmers of this
county.
