NEw YORK, Feb. ?

A Lima letter Of Jan. p, confirms the
announcement Of peace between Chill and
Bolivia.
Prescott and Walker Blaine are still
in Chill They met Garcia Calderon and
had conference with him and subsequently
held two lengthy interviews with balmaceda,
the Gillian Foreign Minister.
The result, or subjec; Of these interviews,
is unknown. The widest rumors are ahoat
and most stupid conjectures are received as
gospel truth. as the sympathies Of the nearer
are Peruvian or Gillian. The greatest cor
diality has marked the interviews and the
Commissioners have been dined by many
leading natives and foreigners, 1t Is re-
ported that Blaine has resigned the appoint
ment Of minister to Chill in consequence Of
the severe criticism By the American press on
his fathers course Of action in reference TO
South American and other matters.
The reports Of Chincha rioting are con-
ficting, some stating that only five or siN
foreigners were killed, while Others state
sixty missing.

Boring the Ears.

A great deal has been recently written on
the subject of boring the ears ''for the sake Of
the eyes," says the London Lancet. 1t is al
ways easy to find excuses for any practice
that ministers to vanity. That the counter
irritation set UP by boring the ear and wear
ing ring may, during the few days follow
ing the operation, have some effect upon the
eyes, supposing these organs to be the seat OF
any low form Of inflammation, is just pos
sible, but that permanent good should be
done by wearing rings in the ears after they
have ceased to irritate, is inconceivable. The
test for motive in the recourse to this device
would therefore be willingness on the part OF
the application for this form of treatment to
allow the healing process to be delayed SAY
by wearing rough ring dipped in some irri-
tating applcation-in short, so prepared as
to act like seton This, indeed might do
good, but in such case probably recourse to
a few blisters behind the ears would be bet
ter 1t is nonsense to suppose the wearing
of earrings can be of any service to the eyes
unless they irritate, and if they do irritate,
the process by which the result attributed to
them is obtained is circuitOus, and from
surgical point of view, awkward in the ex-
treme. Science cannot prostitute truth to
fashion even in SO small a matter as the
wearing of earrings.

EnvyIng q Rich Man.

Some years ago there lived man in
Philadelphia who was envied by hundreds
Jacob Ridgeway was worth five or six mil
lions of dollars, fortune which was then
exceeded only by Girard's and Astors. Now
the most selfish sort of envy is that which
makes man unhappy in view of the wealth
of another. and scores Of men thus made
themselves unhappy whenever they came in
contact with Mr.. Ridgeway. The following
story shows how he improved one who openly
expressed this feeling:
Mr. Ridgeway," said young man with
whom the millionaire was cOnverslng, you
are more to be envied than any gentleman
I know"
why so? responded Nh. Ridgeway, Il
am not aware of any cause for which l
should be particularly envied.'
"What, sir !" exclaimed the young man in
astonishment. Why, you are millionaire :!
think of the thousands your income brings
every month :"
"Well, what of that 2" replied Mr.. Ridge
way. "All get out of it is my victuals and
clothes, and l can't eat more than one mans
allowance and wear more than a suit at a
time. Pray, can't you do as much 2"
"Ah, but" said the youth, think of the
hundreds of fine houses you own, and the
rentals they bring YOU
what better off am I for that?" replied
the rich man. II can only live in one house
at time; as for the money / receive for
rents, can't eat it or wear it; l can only use
it to buy other houses for people to live in !;
they are the benefciaries, not l."
"But you can buy splendid furniture, and
costly pictures, and fine carriages and horses
in fact anything you desire"
"And after l have bought them," respon-
ded Mr.. Ridgeway, what then p l can look
at the furniture and pictures, and the poorest
man, vino is not blind, can do the same.
Il can ride no easier in fine carriage than
you can in an omnibus for five cents, with
out the trouble Of attending to drivers, foot
men and hostlers; and as to anything de-
sire, can tell you, young man, that the less
we desire in this world, the happier we shall
be.
"All my wealth can't buy a single day
more of lite-cannot buy back my youth
cannot procure me power to keep atar off the
hour of death, and then, what will all avail
when in a few short years at most, | lie
down in the grave and leave it forever?
Young man, you have no cause to envy me-"

SALLY SALTER.

SALLY Salter was Il young teacher who taught;
And her friend, Charlie Church, young preacher
who praught,
Though his enemies called him IL screecher who

His heart when lie saw her, kept sinking and sunk
And his eye meeting hers, kept win<ing, and wunlS
While She in her turn, fell to thinking, and thunk
lie ha.tcned to WOO her, and sweetly he wooed,
For his love grew until to "A mountain it grewed,
And what he was longing TO do, he docd.
The secret he wanted to speak, then he spoke
To seek with his lips what his heart had long soke
So he managed to let the truth leak, and it loke.
lie asked her to ride to the church, so they rode,
Aud 50 sweetly did glide that they both thought
they glode,
Till they came to the place to be tied, and were
todc.
Then, "homeward," il: said, ''lct drive" and
they drove;
tnd as soon as they wished to arrive, they arrove
For whatever she could not contrve, he controve.
The kiss he was dying TO steal, then he stole;
At the feet he was longing to kneel, then he knole
And he said, Il feel better than ever fole."
SO they to each other kept cinging, and clung,
While Time in swift circuit kept winging, and wung,
But sad was the thing he was bringing and brung.
The man Sally wanted TO catch and had caught
That She wanted from others to snatch and had

Was the one she now liked TO scratch, and she

De Long and Franklin.
Mail and Express.

The point of semblance between Franklin
and De Long are too striking to escape at
tention now and in the record of historians
hereafter Their mission to the Polar seas
was substantially the same; both failed to
accomplish the work for which they set forth;
both exhibited the most heroic qualities Of
daring, endurance, and fortitude, and both
died of starvation. There is another point
of resemblance which has pathetic interest,
as the world remembers the woman whose
faith in her husbands return has remained
steadfast through long months of suspense,
but is to-day broken by the intelligence sent
by Melville from the Lena Delta Like
Franklin, De Long leaves behind him no.
BILE wife to mourn his fate, and her sorrow
challenges the sympathy which the world
bestowed so freely upon Lady Franklin. 1t
remains for the American people to see that
the memory of De Long is honored like that
of Franklin by his countrymen The first
duty of the nation is to see that the body of
the explorer, with the bodies of his comrades,
is brought to America for honorable inter-
ment. 1t will then be a duty to see that
monument such as England erected to
Franklin, is reared to the memory of hero
whose name will henceforth be q synonym
for bravery and manly fortitude. ea.

A Comprehensive Curse.

The trouble and tribulation OF American
newspaper editors are manifold and proverb-
ial but compared to the prospects that occa-
sionally confront the presiding genii of Lib
eral newspapers published in Spain they are
mere .trifes-that is if we can credit our
English contemporary the Pail Mall Gazette
That most reputable journal says: TO say
nothing of duels, imprisonment and other
little trifles to which Continental Journalists
are exposed, the Spanish Liberal editor stands
in dread of the anathemas OF the Church.
Here, for instance, is an extract from the
comprehensive malediction which the Bish-
op of Santanders has launched at the Liberal
editors of his diocese: MAY Almighty God
curse these journals with the perpetual NAL
ediction launched against the devil and his
angels! May they perish with Nero, Julian
the Apostate, and Judas the traitor! May
the Lord Judge them as he judge Dathan and
Abiram May the earth swallow them up
alive. Let them be cursed day and night,
sleeping and waking, in eating, in drinking,
and in playing when they speak and when
they keep silence! May their eyes be blind
ed, their ears deaf, their tongue dumb! Cursed
be every member of their body! Let them
be cursed from to-day and forever! May
their sepulchre be that of dogs and OF asses !!
MAY famished wolves prey upon their corpses,
and may their eternal company be that of
the devil and his angels !"
