No treaty OF peace between Bolivia and

the treaty OF 1895 Chile agreed 10 give
Bolivia a seaport. Inasmuch as the stretch
OF territory taken from Bolivia, however:
lies between tho provinces OF Jacna ana
africa, taken from Peru, IL was manifestly
impossible for Chile TO surrender an out
let through the old territory OF Bolivia
without completely segregating and dis
Numbering her own territory. 1t is this
problem which has delayed the settlement
OF the WnUle question anu nAtSSu iSsucn
which have produced more or less feeling
In each OF the countries.
The situation was further complicated by
the contention OF Bolivia that the reyolu-
tienists In Chill at the time Of the over
throw CT Balmaceda. promised to aede tie
former Peruvian provinces Of africa and
Jacna In return for the recognition OF the
belligerents by the Bolivian government,
Any individual pledges which may have
been given to that effect. II is stated, have
been practically repudIated by the Chilean
government. But II seems probable that
the final outcome will be the cession to
Bolivia OF one OF the ports at the northern
extremity OF the territory taken from Peru
IN order that Chile may preserve the in
tegrity Of her territory to the south.
At the Chilean legation a peaceful soiu-
tion OF the whole difficulty is anticipated.

MUSIC IN CAMP.

Two armies covered hill and plain,
Where Rappahannock' waters
Ran deeply crimsoned with the stain
OF battles recent slaughters.
The summer clouds lay pitched like tents
In meals of heavenly azure;
And each dread gun OF the elements
Slept in its hid embrasure.
The breeze SO softly blew, it made
No forest leaf to qulver,
And the smoke of the random cannonade
Rolled slowly from the river.
And now, where circling hills looked
down
With cannon grlmly planted,
Der listless camp and silent town
The golden sunset slanted.
When on the fervid air there came
A straln-now rich, now tender
The music seemed itself afane
With days departing splendor.
A Federal blnd, which, eve and morn,
Played measures brave and nimble,
Had just struck up, with flute and horn
And lively clash of cymbal.
Down focked the soldiers to the banks.
Till, marglned by its pebbles,
One woo6o1 cboro u-oo hl,,o NV; L
"Yanks,"
And one was gray with "Rebels."
Then all was still, and then the band.
With movements light and tricksy,
Made stream and forest, hill and strand
Riverberate with "Dixie."
The conscious stream with FURNISHED
glow
Went proudly DER its pebbles,
But thrilled throughout its deepest
With yelling of the Rebels.
Again pause, and then again
The trumpets pealed sonorous,
And Yankee Doodle" was the strain
10 which the shore gave chorus.
The laughing ripple shoreward flew,
To kiss the shining pebbles;
Loud shrieAed the swarming Bows in
Blue
Defiance to the Rebels.
And yet once more the bugles sang
Above the stormy riot;
No shout upon the evening rang
There reigned a holy quiet.
The sad, slow stream its no,seless flood
Poured DER the glistening pebbles
All silent now the Yankees stood,
And silent stood the Rebels.
No unresponsive soul had heard
That plalntive notes appealing,
so deeply Home Sweet Home" had
stirred
The hidden founts of feeling.

And daylight died together.
