ChaIling the Chilians.

PANAMA. Jan. 8.-The latest news
from Peru is to December %. The
American Commissioners had left Lima
for Chill. Great expectations had been
built upon the arrival of the Commits
sioners by the Peruyians but, so far as
heard from, nothing has yet resulted
from this visit. In the meantime af-
fairs remain in statu quo. Very little
else than the visit of the commission
and its probable result is talked of on
the coast at present. II is not believed
that Chill will be so rash as to threaten
war against the United States vet n
serious misunderstanding between the
two countries is looked upon rs pro-
bablc, unless the diplomacy of Messrs.
Prescott and Blaine proves equal to the
emergency. The Chilians are in a bad
temper, and seem at present determined
to have their own way in the settle
ment with Peru and Bolivia. Territor-
ial acquisition is their object, and it does
not clearly appear in what manner they
can be prevented from doing as they
please in that regard. The muddle in
to which the representatives of the
United States have recently plunged
themselves has not helped matters, nor
has it increased the respect manifested
for the North American Republic.

The Last Prop.

A Baptist preacher in Indiana is lee
turing under the caption. ''Can Demo-
crat Get to Heaven" Unhappily, the
reports do not state the decision at which
the reverend gentleman arrives. 1t is
well known that Bob Ingersoll won't let
a democrat 20 there, and yet, what
compensation is there for democrat
unless he gets something good from
the powers that be in the world to come?
Here, no matter how zealously he strives
he cannot secure anything more than
a faint odor of the fiesh-pots. He has
starved and striyen for twenty years,
and the prospects are that he will 90 to
his grave without single satisfying
government morsel in his stomach.
The republican is content with the good
things Of Arthur's kingdom-the one
hope of the democrat is beyond the
grave. If it is the dire mission of the
Indiana preacher TO rob him of this last
and hlissful hope. the situation of the
democrat is truly deploTab - Chicago

ANNA IN BREECHES.
Her First Appearance in Male Characters at
Rochester.

ROCHESTER, N. Y, Jan. 10
M 5 Anna Dickinson's first APP
pearance in male characters took place
at the Grand opera house here tonight
in Hamlet" The audience was large
and composed almost entirely of profess
sional people, lawyers, doctors, teach
ers. editors, actors, and Shaksperian
students. Miss Dickinson was received
by faint applause, a kindly though brief
reception. She dressed the character
different from any other actor, wearing
all purple with black trimmings. This
hue, she claims, is royal mourning, and
the only color Hamlet would have worn
As she began to speak her voice falter-
ed, and the last of the sentence was in
audible; but this feeling was speedily
expelled, and did not reappear. Her
success was qualified. She was, how
ever, called out after every act. She
certainly is masculine in appearance, but
decidedly feminine in action. No one
ever forgot she was Anna Dickinson.
Her whole dramatic action was stiffand
constrained, and it was only in tie soli-
loquies, when she had the stage to her
self, that she achieved anything like a
success.

How II Looks.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-The appor-
tiohment bill already in the assembly
relates only to the senate and assembly
districts. The congressional appoltion-
ment has not been preached, the pre-
liminary skirmish on the question last
Tuesday having been under misappre-
hension as to the facts. The bill intro
duced by Mr.. Price in the assembly is
simply the one vetoed last winter by
Gov. VIM. +. Smith, without any towns
omitted II gives the Democrats about
Z to 9 senators out of 80, and 20 or u
assemblymen out of 100, OF course this
bill will excite much debate, but it does
not rival in Importance, in the eyes OF
the strong politicians. the congressional
apportionment, which is not yet propos-
ed, as it is not known whether the state
will have eight or. nine members. If
the present number of eight is retained,
the districts will be substantially ar
ranged as at present, changing few

The inhabitants of Southern Grant. in
conjunction with citizens of 10 Davis
county, Illinois and Dubuque. Iowa, are
endeavoring to secure permission from
the secretary of War to build wagon
bridge across the Mississippi river, near
the railroad bridge at Dunlieth. Per.
mission had formerly been granted for
a pontoon bridge across the river at
Eagle Point in this county, but. on OK
animation, it was found that the roads
leading UP to it were in too bad shape
and change of base was made. The
bridge, if erected. would be great
benefit to the south part of Grant by af-
fording ready and convenient passage
across the river at all times. 1t is ex-
peeted that if permission is granted a
stock company of Dubuque capitalists
will be formed to build the bridge The
petition is receiving the signatures of the
chairman Of the town boards and there
appears noreason why it should not be
granted.
