Latest mail advices state that the boundary
treaty between the Chilean and Argentine Re-
publics, which was signed at Buenos Ayres on
the 25th of July, by DIR. Ingoyen, Argentine
Minister for Foreign Affairs, and Senior Eche-
varria. Chilean Consul and PlenipOtentiary,
does not vary essentially from the terms given
early IN June. According to the text, the
dividing line will follow the crest of the Andes
from the north TO lat. 50 s., thence TO the in
tersection of that parallel with the meridian
of deg. W. Gr; thence to the summit OF
Mount Aymond; thence eastward to Monte
Dinero, along tile highest points Of the chain
of hills: and from Monte DinerO overland 70
Dungeness Point. All north and east Of the
above line will belong to the Argentine Re
public and the rest to Chile. ANY doubts due
10 the existence of some valleys formed by the
forking of the Andes are to be settled by two
experts, an umpire chosen by both Govern
ments deciding in case of disagreement. Terra
del Fuego is divided by line starting from
Cape Espirito Santo, at lat. SD. 40min. s.,
and following long esdeg. 34min. W. CIR. to
Beagle Channel West of the line the island
belongs to Chile, and the eastern part to the
Argentine Republic. In regard to the other
islands. the Argentine Republic gets Ilha de
los Estados, with the islets next it and
the other islands in the Atlantic and esat Of
Terra del Fusgo, while Chile takes all the is
lands south of Beagle Channel down to Cape
Horn, and those west Of Terra del Fuego. The
experts referred to are to fix the lines. Magel-
lan's Strait is neutralized for ever, andbo til
mowers guarantee its free navigation by all
flags, and agree never to erect in it or along it
anv military works. Any dispute in regard
to the treaty is to be submitted to the arbitra-
ton of friendly power. The BuenoS Ayres
Herald says: No doubt is entertained as to
the treaty being approved by the Congress Of
both countries, although there is some oppOsi-
lion TO it in the Chilean Chamber of Duputies,
led by Messrs. Balmaceda and Albano, who
were at one time the Representatives Of Chile
in this Republic; but all our Transandine adj
vices say that the Government is certain OF
sweeping majority when the division comes
off, In the Argentine Congress no opposition
is anticipated. At Buenos Ayres the project
for return to convertible currency hangs lire,
the Bill Of the Executive having been re-
committed, the committee and the Government
of Buenos Ayres have been unable TO agree,
and the directory of the Bank of the Province
having rejected the Tornquist Bill, despite the
pressure of the National Government. We
take the following from the Anglo Brazilian
Times: "In Peru the adherents of Pierola
succeeded in sinking the Chilean steamer IorO
at Pisco, and made an attempt to blow up the

Courts have recognized the. Calderon Presi-
dency, which has been accepted by thu Con-
gress at Chonilles. AT Tupiza, Bolivia, Off
cial information had been received of the in
tention to continue the war against Chile. Ac-
cording to accounts from Santiago, the proba-
bilities of Legislative approval Of the
Argentine Chilean boundary treaty were
