II is cannon shot that holds another shot
within it, and while flying through tho air

to be hoped the FIRST shot may be always SO

so send tho second shot the wrong way.

Spain aud tho South American Republics.
The despatch from Madrid which we pub
lished yesterday indicates that Spain is ready
TO make peace with Chile and Peru, notwitl-
standing both these republics have accorded
belligerent rights to Cuba. The government,
we are told, ''has sent authority to the Spanish
Minister at Washington to make treaties of
peace with the republics Of South America /"
Oar Valparaiso correspondent also reported
that tho Chilean administration has deter
mined not only to send legation to Washing
ton, but also to immediately despatch
plsnipotentiary to that city, to meet the
Ministers Of the allied republics and Spain. in
order to settle this long vcxed question of the
Spanish war" Certainly this Is tho mo st
commendable course for all the nations con-
cerned to pursue. Nearly two years have
passed since a shot has been fired by any of
the beligerents. Spain has had enough to
attend to ct home and in Cuba while Chile
and Peru, if even inclined to continue hos
tilities, have not possessed the power and
means. The coming to an end Of what Is
really ridiculous state OF war without fighting
Is therefore desirable, and it is especially
gratifying that to the good Offices OF the
United States is mainly due tho approaching
amicable settlement Of existing differences
betweon the Powers concerned.

IMpoRTANT TESTIMONY OMITTED. D.-When
Perry, charged with the murder Of the night
watchman in Brooklyn, was first arrested it
was shown in the preliminary examination
that on the night OF the murder he had said to
a friend that he was in trouble from having
stirred back when shot at. What became Of
that important point of testimony on the trial !?
The person who testified TO this declaration Of
Perry was William Mccormack. Tho tcsti-
mony Of James Delaney, the car conductor,
who first picked up Hayes, detailed Hayes
account OF the 5meute and was very circum-
