doubtless authentic:

and after exchanging various ideas in terms when were

this protocol solely to the conditions which they arrived
F.sf~Nr Trescot stated that the United states had
recognized the Government OF Garcia Calderon ont OF
friendship for the begerents and in the interests OF
peace and that as his Government had been the only
one which had recognized by accreditng representa-

cia Calderson was an act which offended the United
States Senor Balmaceda answered that Chilli abolished
the authority OF Garcia Caderon within the lines held by
the troops and that he arrested without any nten
lion of offending the United States any other neutral
power, aud simply III the use OF the legitimate rlghs 0

From the above it will be seen that nothing be-
yond good offices Will be exercised in favor OF Peru,
and her people must work out their own salvation
in their own way. Politicians in Lima are busy,
and as usual are more interested i'll the triumph OF
marty than in the regeneration of the country and
making peace with its conqucrors. Pierolas party
is strong, but the Cadcron faction is not dead or
inert by any means. From the interior of Peru come
accounts of a band of foreigners. fifteen Ill num-
hon drossed as Chilian soldiers rObbing number

lions from the already impoverished villagers. They
discoyrrcd three or four OF them were arrested,
and the same fate will Overtake the Others. what
money was found on the prisoners was returned to
the victims.
