A Valparaiso special to the New York Herald says the resolution Introduced in the house of representatives at Washing ton, requesting President Harrison to re- call Minister Egan, was read with sur- prise in Valparaiso. There has been an entire change in public feeling toward Mir. Egan in Chilli since the settlement of the diplomatic tangles that have been disturbing the relations of the two coun- tries. His attitude seems now to be un- and his services in protecting many prominent members of the congress sional party from the vengeance of the late dictator, and in granting an asylum to the refugees who sought the American legation after the downfall of Balmaceda, are now generally recognized as having been both humane and proper. All the time during the past year from ten to thirty refugees have been quartered In the American legation, being entertained and fed entirely at the expense of Minis- ter Egan.. He refused to accept g penny from those who sought his protection, whether they were congressionalists or Balmacedists. Chilians appear to be getting acquainted with these facts. Ed uardo Matte, who is now president of the chamber of deputies, and many others whose lives were saved by Minister Egan during Balmaceda's dictatorship favor his retention as the American minister.

VERY FLATTERINa are the accounts of the opening of J. D. Gill's fifteenth an- nual exhibition of paintings in Spring field, which opened on Monday of this week, and will continue open through February. These exhibits are an event of the year for all New England, and are purely American, only native artists be- ing represented. Those who go early will be less likely to find the rooms crowded, and the same reason is good one for visiting them early in the day, though the fine arrangement of the oc- tagonal rooms, lighted from above, per- mits of large number enjoying the view without crowding.

If the remarkable story from Bridge port is correct, that number of Connec- ticut militiamen marched from their arm- oiy, joined 8 mob and threatened to shoot British captain if he did not haul down the British flag, then few vacancies should be created in the ranks of the Fourth Connecticut regiment as soon as possible. If 8 gun had been accidentally discharged-as is not infrequently the case when firearms are handled by inex- perienced and excited young men-just punishment of numerous offenders and national expressions of regret, accompa- nied by humble apologies, would have been in order, and would have been con- sidered humiliating by no thinking Amer icah. -Neso Fork Tribune.
 The story wasn't correct, but all the same it was discreditable that so many newspapers published 1t with semi-approv- ing comments, and others without dis approval.

The late. Sir Thomas Chambers was not. 8 yit, and. laughter seldom entered the court over which he presided so sol emnly. There is, however, one good story told of him in the Temple. It is to the effect that prisoner, who was unde- tended, pleaded guilty" and, counsel having been instructed to defend him, at the last moment withdrew the plea, and substituted that of 'snot guilty" 1" with the result that the jury acquitted him. In diseharging the prisoner, Sir Thomas Is said to have remarked: Prisoner I do not envy your feelings. On your own confession you are thief, and the jury have found that you are liar"

Secretary Blaine has sent cable mes- sage to Minister Egan, instructing him to inform the Chilian government that it's proposition for settlement of the differ ences between the two governments made in response to the ultimatum of the 21st, are satisfactory to the president. The telegram makes no request or suggestion for salute by chili to the American flag. It is very possible, however, that Chill may, of her own accord, perform this graceful act at the termination of the di- plomatic adjustment of all difficulties which is now in progress.

THE same newspapers, which so recent ly were troubled about the surplus, are scolding as badly about a depleted na- tional treasury, and distorting figures fearfully to prove that the treasury is in a bad way.

IT Is not to the discredit of Minister Egan that the Chilians disapprove of his course. For that matter they have the same feeling against the U. s. govern ment, and, as the Baltimore affair shows, against the U. s. uniform. However, 1t Is not unlikely that, as pacific measure, Mir. Egan may be replaced by new man, his course having been most emphatically vindicated by the approval of, the presi- dent and fair minded American. public. If we can better restore fraternal feelings by sending new minister to the Chilian capital who hasn't been instrumental in the humiliation of Chii. itsnags,be better to do so. ss.s. r s IT. t
