Our Special Letters from Central aud South
America.
The HERALD special correspondence from
Central America and the South Pacific States
reached this port yesterday by steamship from
Aspinwall. The letters are published in our
columns to-day. They supply very in
teresting and ample review of the condition
of affairs which existed in the leading repub-
lican confederacies at the moment of the
latest mail dates. The tendency of the pub
lie mind was evidently towards pro-
gress, but it is equally patent that
variety Of old and hereditary influences
were at work to restrain it. The Church
party, with majority Of the native aristocrats,
were allied at different points in array against
the pauperised agriculturists and demoralized
laborers. Guatemala experienced the conse-
quences in the shape of conflict which took
place between the State troops, commanded by
President Garcia Granados in person, and q
body of clerico- -revolutionists who were armed,
near Santa Rosa. The soldiers of the Execu-
tive defeated and dispersed the NAL
contents. The republics were moving
towards the completion of q more init
mate union, the bond having been almost
perfected between San Salvador and Guate-
mala. King Amadeus flag, on board the
Spanish war ship Tornado, did not obtain any
accession of honor by the operations Of the
commander Of the Tornado of Aspinwall in
his attempt to seize the steamship Virgnius on
charge of completely in the Cuban war
struggle. The neutral attitude of the State
of Colombia towards Spain and her colonial
peoples, aided by the prompt action
of the United States Consul at Aspin-
wall, humiliated the position Of the Spanish
officer to such degree that 1t is very prob
able both Of the American governments will
hear of the affair in the shape of very angry
correspondence from Madrid. Religious agi-
tation disturbed the minds Of the people in the
capital of Colombia. Costa Rica has revised
its commercial tariff San Salvador had
placed an ex-Presdent in prison by vote Of
the Legislature, and also declared free
church and complete religious toleraton for
foreigners-the last named act most remark
able symptom Of popular advance, as,
indeed, is the first. Aside from its peril from
the squabbles of electioneering politicians
Peru was developing its native wealth ex-
tensively and solidly. The railroad works Of
the republic were carried on vigorously
towards completion. There remains little
doubt but that the vast resources OF the fer
tile country which lies between Callao and
Lima and the Peruvian headwaters OF the
Amazon will be opened at an early day,
perhaps, to the world by the travel OF
the iron horse. Chinese coolies were peang
landed in Peru in large numbers. The state
was receding from It's hitherto intimate rela
tions with the Church, ss are others OF the
countries Of the S0ath. Pacific. Thus We may

Charles O'Conor's Withdrawal and Ad-
vice.
The people of New York city and of the
State at large will regret to learn that Charles
OConor has declined the nomination rendered
him for the Assembly. The reasons given by
Mr.. O'Conor are, however, sufficient, and he
can probably accomplish more real good
for our citizens in the labor in which
he is at present engaged than he could in the
State Legislature. At the same time he
promises to give all the advice and assistance
in his power to those who will be charged at
Albany with the important duty of remodel
ling our municipal government. The counsel
given by Mr. O'Conor in regard to the
elections for the Legislature should be
followed all over the State. Wherever
tainted candidate appears let an honest man
be nominated as his opponent and supported
irrespective of party. In districts where
democrats are weak let them unite with their
political adversaries in the election Of an
honest republican, and where the democracy
has the majority let republicans support good
democrat against bad one. In this way
such candidates as ex-Sheriff O'Brien, Tweed
and Fields may be kept out of the Legislature
and men Of character and integrity be made
to gil the places they would disgrace.

throughout the United States is to be agitated
by the anti-suffrage women in Washington.
They think there is room for a sixteenth
amendment In the regulation of the divorce

for New Yorker to smuggle himself out Of

Smith: one from France, fitted out by Octave
Pavy, and the United States expedition, under
Captain Hall. The discovery of the open
Polar Sea by the German expedition brings to
recollection the second Arctic exploration OF
DR.. E. K Kane, and his perilous overland
isurney to point from which he saw, In the
Inaccessible distance, the unfrozen waters OF
the circum-polar ocean. This discovery OF
DR.. Kane, although credited by many persons
was not accepted as an incontroVertlole lacI.
The accuracy of his observations has, however,
been established by the recent report from tne
German expedition.
As the ruins are gradually being cleared
away. the extent Of the losses by the Cnlcago
fire and the exact condition Of affairs IN that
city at the present time can be estimated with
approximate correctness. From statement
in the Chicago Tribune, we gather the facts
that over $4,000 persons have left the city,
making the remaining population about $780,
ono: one halt of the stock of pork products was
consumed; l,6OO, 900 OF the 100000 bushels OF
grain were burned; and about one.ffth of the
lumber, one. quarter ofthe leather, one-hait OF
the coal, and the greater portion ofthe greece
rles, dry goods and boots and shoes were also
destroyed. A careful average of the larger
items shows that the city has suffered loss of
not less than twenty nor more than twenty
FIVE per cent on her total assets-real and per
sonal. The ratio of increase during the past
thirty-four years has averaged ten and a
half per cent. per annum. This rate would re-
store the status of a month ago, within three
years. Making every due allowance for the
terrible setback experienced, the Tribune
thinks there can be no doubt that five years
hence, at most, the exhibit OF population,
wealth, commerce and manufactures will be
greater than month ago.

South Carolina Radicalism. At that time, II
we mistake not, he was still glibly speuting
at Democratic ward meetings, In behalf OF
Seymour and Blair.
This, in conclusion, we would say to the
New York Times We fatty deny that any
Republican, taciturn or outspoken, is in any
more danger, on the score OF bis politics, in
South Carolina than he is in New York. This
declaration we set squarely against the fab
rications OF writer, the bare mention OF
whose name would itself be, hereabouts at
least, an ample refutation OF his ISLANDERS.
