their familiarity with the language, people
and customs of the Pacific coast of South

service of the Pacific Mail Steamship Co.

lumbia. Gibbs was U. S. Minister to Peru

| THE SOUTH AMERICAN REPUBLIC QUESTIONS.
! Dit is learned ct the department Of state
| that Frelinghuysen, some time since, sent
| instructions to our minister to Chill to pro-
! pose basis of peace upon which all par
ties could agree, and which it was hoped,
If concluded, would be permanent. The
| basis was in substance the cession to Chill
of the Peruvian territory of Larapaca and
| submission to an impartial arbitration of
| the question whether any additional terri
| tory be ceded; and If So how much and on
what terms. The proposed settlement was
! submitted to. tke REPRESENTATIVE of Chill
| and Peru in Washington and met their ap-
! prevail. Shortly after the receipt of this
| instruction by Logan, however, the CHILEAN
| government had come to an arrangement
with Iglesias. Whether Iglesias represents
| the popular sentiment of Peru and will
receive substantial support from its peo-
| pie, so as to authorize other countries to
recognize him to represent that republic
is question upon which Logan, Phelps
| and Gibbs are expected to furnish the gov
eminent of the United States with informa-
ton, upon which it may justly and wisely
act. While these gentlemen will be very
carefully instructed, broad discretion will
necessarily be left to them, as to details
of their course and questions of final recog-
| milton of any defacto government in Peru,
is reserved to the government. The opinion
has some time been expressed that it would
be advantageous to accredlt Logan to all
the three governments, and in regard to
this it is said at the department., the presi-
dent on reflection decided that proper re-
gard to each of the republics demand
different representative from this country
should be accredited to each, especially as
congress, by appropriation for three dis
tinct missions,l signifed its Judgment
that such course would be proper one.
CHIEF MOSES AND HIS RESERVATION.
Chief Moses and two subordinate chiefs
arrived and will hold conference with
the secretary OF the interior tomorrow,
with reference to the proposed relinquish-
ment of a portion of their reservation in
Washington territory.
