WASHINGTON DEPOT, Mar. 15th, 1880.

MR. EDITOR
 Being in possess,nof letter written hy-a former pupil, from Peru, S. A., have come to the conclusion that we know but little of our South American neighbors, and that g. fewsextracts from Mr. Bailey'sa letter may be interesting to the readers of the Enquirer.
 He dates Feb. 19, 18SO "While lying at anchor within the blockade at Africa, orders came from the Admiral to proceed to Coquim- bo, Chill, and give liberty to the men who had been deprived of it since leaving San Francisco Nothing will arouse the energies of ne-jacket more effectually than the antic- ipation 0; liberty, and the Alaska anchor was hovein, tishcd and catted sooner than it ever was before.
 'We arrived in Coquimbo on the 18th of Jan and I found it far different city from what l expected, my imagination associating it with the description given in the Olney & Huntington geographles of my school boy days. But Coquimbo has been destroyed by earth quakes 80 many times that do otthink there is vestige left of old Coquimbo since the dis astrous earthquake of 1867. It is one of the oldest places on the coast, and until the last earthquake there stillremained buildings erect ed by the first settlers on tn the coast but now everything is modern.
 ''Six miles North of Coquimbo is the beauti- ful little city of La Sarena. Concluding we could pass our time more agreably by getting away from the crowd of man -of-war's men, my friend Bonnet, an old typo, now ships yeoman of the Alaska, and myself, took the cars for that city and in twenty-eight minutes were in La sarena, the most enjoyable railroad ride ever experienced. The road runs directly along the shore of beautiful Coquimbo Bay, and a perfectly level country stretches back for ten miles to the foot. of the Andes, all under nigh state of cultivation. Notwlth- standing this terrible war they are undergoing, they still pay tLe same attention to agriculture and manufactures as before, and were it not tor the number of troops, and general military appearance in the streets, you would not SUD- pose that large share of the male population were under arms.'
 He concludes, after stating many more inter- esting facts,
 ''The weather is beautiful, temperature just right, and our ship mass of flowers between decks, either sent by friends or purchased alongside remarkably cheap. We have all kinds of fruit and vegetables, in fact every thing we have in New York in the summer season. I am in love with the country and like to write about it. J. M. BAILEY.

The attitude of our President and Congress is anything but favorable to NIT. Lesseps' pro- ject-on the contrary, it would seem to render it an impossibility. American interests all point to the Nicaraguan route-and that is likely to be the one finally adopted. European capitalists are not likely to invest money in project which is so evidently unpopular in the leading country of this continent, and which ao single European power would be likely to risk war with the United States to defend.

There is an advertisement in our col
umns to which we take much pleasure
in referring our readers, because we be-
lieve in it and can conscientiously and
heartily recommend it. We refer to
Halls Hair Remover. We remember
many cases in our midst of old and
middle aged people who formerly wore
grey hair, or whose locks were thin and
faded, but who now have presentable
head pieces, and with no little pride
announce to their friends that they
haven't a grey hair, in their heads. 1t
is a pardonable pride, and the world
would be better off if there was more
of it, for when the aged make them
selves attractive to Others they are
more certain to win and retain the es-
TEEN and respect to which a burthen
of well spent years entities them. Try
Halls Hair Remover if age or disease
has thinned or whitened your locks and
you will thank us for our advice
