FOREIGN TELEGRAMS.

THREATENED REVOLUTION IN CENTRAL
AMERICA-INDIGNITIEsT TO THE AUSTRIAN
MINISTER AT ROME--GENERAL FINANCIAL
DISTRESS IN s0TUH AMERICA.
SITUATION AT BAToUM.
LONDON, July 2l.-Previons to the dis
bandment of the reserves, which will occur
on the 3lst of July, the duke of Cambridge
will review them.
GOING TO RESIST.
A dispatch from Constantinople says the
inhabitants OF Batoum are arranging for a
determined resistance of the occupation of
that place by the Russians.
INSULTING THE AUsTRIANs.
ROME, July 2l.-A great anti-congress
was held here to-day, which was presided
over by Menott Garibaldi. Subsequently
and during this evening there were hostile
demonstrations made in front Of the Aus
trian embassy, and the police made many
arrests.
FINANCIAL DISTRESS IN PERU.
PANAMA, July l3.-Peruvian papers of
recent date speak in q most Responding
tone in relation to financial affairs in Chill,
forgetting that the position in which Peru
is placed at present is far more distressing
than that Of her sister republic. Chill pa
pers do not publish such distressing
accounts of the condition Of the country for
paper money there is tpsr with silver
while in Peru the paper is at discount Of
80 per cent to the silver dollar with the ex-
change at 26d or thereabouts.
REVOLUTION THREATENED,
PANAMA, July 13.-There have arrived
here from BOgota some officers to reinstate
those of the state who are to be sent to Bar
ranquilla. Rumor, however, has it that
the state officers have declined to leave
Panama, in which case they will be dis
banded from the battalion in which they
belong. There is no doubt that great dis
satisfaction exists at present on the
isthmus and feeling of insecurity is gen.
orally felt by the native population, who
see that this change means something more
serious and which, of course, must end in
revolution. The usual detachment of ma
iional troops is also shortly expected on the
isthmus. The state government is trying
to compromise with Senior Minotti, an Italian
merchant of this city, who was recently i'm
prisoned by one Of the judges. So far they
have not succeeded, as the question has al
ready been referred to the Italian govern
ment, who alone must now take action in
the matter.
