The Republic of Chile one and indivisibe is
composed Of fifteen provinces, which are subdvided
into fifty departments. The Government consists
Of a National Congress, composed of two Cham
bers-one of Representatives elected directly by the
people, and Of Senators, appointed by Electors
specially chosen for this object-and Of President,
(tbe Chief Magistrate,) and Supreme Court. The
Senators and Representatives are not paid. ~
The President is elected for the term of five years.
and is eligible for second term. There is likewise
aCouncil of State, tho members of which afe at,-

are, er c1ici0, members Of this CoRReil.
The President presents to Conk<ess the drafts Of

State and has the right of yetoing laws which may

HOTEL.

The time seems TO be at hand when a comfort
able aud commodious Hotel ought to be started
in Honolulu. 1t is little TO our credit that nei-
Their our residents from the other islands. nor
strangers from abroad. can arrive in town without
inconvenent embarrassment as to where they can
find shelter and food. that refreshment and ac-
commOdatiou which every town. however insig-
nhcant in civilized countries, offers to travellers
There strangers have no hesitation, on calls of
business or pleasure to penetrate the most sparse
ly settled districts, to arrive without previous
notice in town, at any hour of the day or night;
while here, the uncertainty of shelter is so great
and Accommodations so difficult to be obtained
that it amounts to positive inhospitality on our
part-a prOhibitionin fact upon arrivals Such
state Of things is injurious to cur interests and
detriment TO the public welfare.
1t needs no argument to prove that travel
avoids those towns where no provision to meet
the needs of travellers exists that visits to such
towns are confined to those who are Obliged to 20
there, and that such places only vegeiate without
growth and progress, and cut themselves of from
the chances for improvement and expansion that
come to more public spirited and wide-awake
towns

The Judges are permanent not removable
There is one Supreme Court and three Courts Of
Appeal: one of which is in Santiago; one in the
Province of Serena, and one in that of Conception
In each Court Of Appeal, and in the Supreme Court,
there is Procureur attorney for the Republic
In all ports and commercial cities, there are
Commercial Tribunals, the Judges OF which re-
movable. The PresidentImakes all appointments
civil, military and ecelesisstical-but be is obliged
to submit the nomination of Bishops and Brgadier
or Division Generals To the approval of the Senate
There is Superior Tribunal of Accounts, which
examines all the accounts of public officers.
Each Minister Of State presents to Congress, each
year, his budget for the expenses of the ensuing
year. These budgets are discussed in the Rrepre-
sentatives and are sent thence TO the Senate with
whatever amendments may have been made.
As has been seen, Chile is divided into fifteen
Provinces; these into Departments, and the De-
partments into Cantons. The capital cities of the
provinces are governed by an Intendant, or Project
appointed by the President. In the provinces
the Judges which compose the Tribunal, there are
many Judicial functonaries. The Courts of Appeal
and the employees attached thereto cost, annually
about $50 600 The Sub Projects, or Governors Of
Departments, are, likewise, appointed by the Pres
dent and are subordinate to the Intendant Project
or Chief of the province. Ifa
Each capital city of a province has Municipal
Council, presided over BY the Inendant, as is each
capital city of the departments by the Governor or
Sub-Prcfect These Projects send, annually, to the
Minister of Interior report of the general state Of
the provinces which they administer and a report
of each of the subprefectures containing statistical
details of the same. Each province, in proportion
TO its population, maintains sufficient number of
municipal guards, charged with the police and
safety Of the cities, who promenade the streets by
day and night. The total number of these guards
is about $500, and they are paid, partly by the
municipalities and partly by the general Govern
ment. There are, likewise, geud'armes, who are
on duty on the rural routes, to protect property
against malefactors.

Of trade, we know that progress is hindered by
isolation; that power and national importance
come by the connection with commercial coun-
tries, that if we would hold that to which we
have attained and gain ground in the future we
must look TO the development Of these routes of
commerce as our main hope. ~
But it happens, that advantages, howeser great,
may not prove fruitful of benefits to town that
is too sluggish to improve its opportunities, or
too deficient in public spirit to seize and detain
the good placed within its reach A railroad
through a town does not insure its growth from
the simple fact that the cars pass frequently,
that passengers stop minute on the station
platform that they lessen the cost Of freight to
market that was before distant, the railroad is
but the means which such a town can apply to
its advancement to greater or lesser degree as
it displays enterprise. and the disposition to make
the most of its opportunities.
So we believe that large steamers stopping en-
route in our harbor will not benefit us very much
unless we prepare ourselves to improve the chan
ces thrown in our way. Doubtless we will not
be slow TO improve them in sending our products
to markets now practically shut against US, or to
have on hand those fruits and small truck Of
gardens that will be in demand on steamer day,
Int we shall have lost much that ought to be an
advantage to us if we allow every steamer to pass
by Us without desire on the part of some Of
the passengers to tarry few days on our
islands, to look about and thereby gain some
idea of our resources and our capabilities. From
the stream Of travel some waits of capital or labor
ought to strand on the shores, and probably will
do So if we make it, in the first instance possible
by providing attractive Hotel Accommodations for
travellers. GsH s71a1a
