FROM PANAMA.
Close OF the Revolution in Peru-Aboriive
Attempts at Revolutions in Other
Places.

PANAMA, Sept. 26.
The great question at present in Chill is the
definition of relations between the church
and State. There has been good deal of
discussion on the subject in Congress, but
liberal ideas seem TO point 10 a complete
separation of the government and the church
1t seems probable that the chamber of depu-
ties has approved the arrangement by arbitra-
tion of the claims of German and Belgian
subjects arising from the late South Pacific
war, and that peace is apparently about to be
restored to those much agitated republics.
There has been an attempt at a revolution
in Nicaragua. Its failure is remarkable, as
the government is purely republican and the
actual president has not yet completed his
FIRST legal term.
In Guatemala also there has been q revolu-
ton which organized on the frontier of Soc
onusdo, Mexico. 1t was quickly suppressed
Order now reigns throughout the State.
Advices from Lima state that the revolu
ton is apparently drawing to close. The
i'll success that has attended Gen. Carceres'
attack on Lima must necessarily have served
to dampen the ardor of the revolutionists and
to strengthen Inglesias' government. The
number of men on that occasion were only
about $50 on each side.

JOHN W. GARRETT.
Brief sketch Of His Life's Work-The
Loss Sustained in His Death.

DEER PARK, Md, Sept. 26.
John w. Garrett, president of the Balti-
more & Ohio Railroad Co., who died here at
5.25 this morning, was 10 the Goth year of his
age. He was a native of Baltimore. After
completing his scholastic education, he
went to college at Pennsylvania, returned
to Baltimore and entered the counting house
of his father, where he remained until elected
one of the directors of the b. &. o. Ra lroad
Co. in 1867. During the following year he
was elected its president Through his man
agement all connections of the railroad west
of the Ohio river were made and the Pitts
burg and Connellsvile railroad was finished
and developed. With rare exceptions, since
he assumed the management of the railroad
its stock has constantly increased in value
and has always been above par. His labors
were continued, and though he possessed a
robust constitution. two years ago his health
failed, but he did not withdraw from active
participation in the management of the road
until about a year ago. About that time Mrs.
Garrett lost her life by an accident and that
caused a shock to his nervous system from
which he never recovered. The loss suffered
by the Baltimore and Ohio road as well as by
the city of Baltimore, where he was always
in the front OF all enterprises, is incalcula-
BILE.
