Central and South America-Another War
In Prospect.

In Prospect.
BY special telegram from Panama via Ha-
vana to the HERALD our correspondent at the
former place sends us important information
respecting affairs in Central and South Amer
lea. When our mails arrived by the last
steamer from Aspinwall we were informed that
with the Central American republics peace
and prosperity reigned supreme-that
war was not considered within the range
of possibilities. Now, however, the whole
scene has changed and war in which Guate-
mala, Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua and
Costa Rica will all be engaged, is considered
the most probable event that can occur. No
one who understands Spanish American
republic will wonder at such sudden turn
over of the situation. War and revolution is
their chronic condition; peace and prosperity
the exception to their rule; and so it goes on
year after year, and there appears to be
no way to better their condition and no
troll over them. Coffee and cakes must now
give place to artillery and small arms, and we
may look for struggle that, although it may
last for few months only, will efiectually
destroy the benefits that have accrued from
few years of peace and tranquility.
Among the South American republics Of
the Pacific coast Bolivia is the only one
at present wherein the people are at
war among themselves. The revolu-
tionary party is certain of success Git
always is in these South American revolutons)
and the existing legitimate government is GER
tain to be overthrow. When this is accom-
plished, what next? Why, before peace is
established in the one republic we shall have
row Ia another Peru or Ecuador will have
their turn the routine must not be broken !;
the ball Of internal strife must be kept rolling
continue it's full term. No; it must be ousscd
by force as soon as it is considered that the
members thereof have had their share of
public plumber. Certainly these republics
have remarkable recuperative powers. They
fight among themselves and with each other
year after year, and yet they do not appear to
be impoverished Surely they must carry on
war at small expense to enable them to pro-
long hostilities, and we cannot but surmise
that they pay no one that their officers and
men fight for nothing-for the love of the
pleasant little recreation. We await, not with
much anxiety, however, the result of these
little unpleasantnesses, and when they are
ended we shall wait patiently for the next.
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1871-01-25

We are informed to-day, by cable telegram
from London, that NJ. Jules Favre has obtained
Prussian ''pass," which permits him to leave
Paris in order 10 attend the European Confer
ence, and that he is, probably, now on his way
to the English capital under protection and by
virtue Of this most potent piece of writing. The
despatch mentions the word probably" This
we do not like, as it tends TO leave the question
Of NJ Favre's exact Whereabouts still in doubt.
II NJ. Favre has obtained Prussian s'pass"
he should be most careful not to lose 1t. The
paper will certainly be looked for in
after years as one of the most curl
GUS relics Of the war, owing to the
vast amount of trouble and anxiety which the
efforts for its attainment entailed on the united
wisdom of the French nation, from Favre him
self to Gambetta and thence by sympathy to
all the Mayors Of the capital. We question,
indeed, if an Irish landlords lease, drawn up
10 the ''rale ould days" Of toryism, with all its
reservations" and s'ines" and ssturbaries"
and ''gold" and ''coal mines clauses, would
prove as attractive curiosity in the grand
national American museum which will be built
in the Central Park to the great grandchildren
of Mr.. O'Donovan Rosa az will this famous
s'pass' Of Favres to the descendants of the
Panslavist Prussians and rejuvenated French
men in the France of after years.
That is, always provided, as the lawyers
express it, that M. Favre has 'spass." Our
dispatches state that Count Bismarck refused
to give such paper as Chancellor Of the
German empire. The Premier could not
be ''caught," by the creation of pre-
cedent, with piece of paper of that
sorts so he determined to let the thing
'pass" in proper form, or, as some one of the
infant embryo Chancellors Of New York would
express it, to 'let it slide" NJ. Favre next
applied to the Prussian generals commanding
the army of investment of Paris. The army
as we are told, liberated him under ''pass y
but the document is SO carefully worded that
he cannot make anything OF it but ''pass"
So it remains, NJ. Favre having, as it is
inferred, passed out from Paris. If he once
gels into the ''mail train, sir, for Lunnon"-
first class" or third, it don't matter-M.
Favre will reach the ''chair of France" near
the 'green CABLE in Downing street, and the
London Conference become very interesting
indeed. But now, again, he won't get into
any train, mail or passenger. We were
assured by cable telegram from London last
night that M. Favre communicated with Mr..
Odo Russell at Versailles to inform him that
he (Favre) declines to leave Paris" And so
he goes. Now you have him, and then he is
not there. What will be done with the
''pass?"

John Bull Ar0used-He Is Jealous of tn,
Annexation Of st. Domingo.

By special telegram to the HERALD from
Jamaica our correspondent at Kingston sends
us the important Information that the island is
to be placed in complete state of defence,
that additional troops are being sent there,
that the English squadron is TO be reinforced,
and that it is to be made the great military
and naval station Of the Caribbean Sea.
All this is brought about by the possibility
of the annexation of St. Domingo to the United
States. 1t is very evident that John Bull does
not like the idea of Uncle Sam obtaining
foothold in the West Indies. He imagines,
and not without some show of reason, that we
would be most uncomfortable neighbors in the
event of hostilties, and he must be ready for us
or for any emergency that may arise, by fortify
ing the island Of Jamaica, increasing its garrison
and by making it the headquarters of larger
squadron than he has ever before had in peace
times in the waters of the Caribbean Sea.
Timely precaution is good thing, and our
English cousin cannot be censured for what
he is doing. Our government may ask for
explanations for the meaning Of this show OF
force. and the British government may tel the

Mrs. GRANT gave another OF her brilliant
receptions yesterday, at which she was sup
ported by Mrs. Colfax and several other
ladies, and at which the President himself took
part in receiving. 1t is gratifying to note the
cordially and harmony existing among the
ladies of our leading dignitares at The capital.
When the entente c0rdidle exists between the
wives Of The President and the Vice-President
and the various Presidential aspirants in the

truth about it; but we cannot find fault or
take exception to it. We would do the same
thing under like circumstances. We may
growl; that is very natural; but there will be
cause for it, for, no matter what force may be
sent there, should war occur and it becomes
necessary for us to have Jamaica, why we
would first ask for its surrender, and if our
request was not acceded to, why, there would
be but one other thing for us to dove would
proceed to take it.

The National Debt and the Sinking Fund.

The National Debt md the sinking Fund.
Since the beginning of Mr.. Boutwell's ad-
ministraton as Secretary of the Treasury the
amount applied to the direct reduction of the
national debt by the purchase Of bonds in the
open market has been over one hundred aud
eighty millions of dollars. The purchases
were made for two distinct objects--viz., the
original sinking fund provided by the act au-
thorizing the issue Of the bonds and the So
called special fund--a name applied In lieu OF
better to the accumulation in excess Of the
amount required to be purchased for the sink
ing fund. In the Funding act passed by Con-
gress last summer cognizance was taken OF
these purchases, and one section directs
the cancellation and destruction of all
the bonds so held in the Treasury
Department. The bonds were SO destroyed.
and in the monthly debt statements of Mr..
Boutwell, no reference is now made to them.
The Funding act, however, winds up with q
paragraph ordering the collection of the inter
est which belongs to the bonds bought for the
sinking fund, in pursuance of which PROVISION
the people are taxed annually to the extent OF
over three millions in gold coin above and
beyond what is requisite to meet tne interest
on the outstanding public debt
The sinking fund is a NTH; the bonds were
destroyed long ago and their figures are all
that remains of them Yet for this abstrac-
ton the people continue to undergo
unnecessary taxaticn. A Washington
correspondent, n calling attention TO
the fact gives the alarming rumor that certain
Congressional wiseacres, acting probably ON
the suggestions Of Mr.. Boutwell,. who il
prompted by his fatal hurry to pay Off tho
national debt. are aGitatinG The question oil

REPEAL OF THE INCOME TAx.-The Ways

on the subject of repeating the income tax,
and appearances indicate that they will
speedily report bill to the House for that
purpose. Let the friends OF such a measure
keep up the agitation, and even the old fogies
of the Senate will be forced to succuulb to the
popular demand After the income tax must
