Lust summer wliilo tho crow of thu U. S. cruiser I'.iititnoro was nshoro at Valparaiso a mob of Chilian jiolieu attacked tliu sailors, and somu wuro killed and other wounded, roiiic dying afterwards, j Our government called iiM)ii thu Chilian government for indemnity nud nn ajKdogy. Shu treated tho j duumtid with contempt, ami an tin- , interrupted corroonlonca has ! bcon going on between tho two na- j tioiiH. It is given out by members of thu cabinet that this corrosKnd- unco will show that the olfonso of thu Chilians was of miiuIi a serious ! character that this government ban uxureisod extraordinary patience in consenting to permit so much time to elapse without thu prompt and fidl reparation which was demand. ed. t n less the Chilian govern - incut oiroi-s assurances in unmu- .... , . .... tiikublo terms of its willingness to make full reparation, and nucoiujm- nioa this nssnianeo by expression of roirut Biillicient to sntisfv the 01 icgrui BiiiiiLiuni 10 saui t it llOlior or thu I. lilted .State, the meaning of this is war. War can now Im iivoided nnlv bv thu fail- K . . tiro oi congreffl to declare it or by action on the part of thu Chilian government, which shall iiiako war nueuscury. The jircsi dent and his ndvioers have hettled down to the cot victiou that Chili will not olTer hiich terms of settle ment as thu Cuited States eau ac cept, it is now evident to thu most skeptical that thu country is Uton tho verge of a war, and that in a region that si. months ago Hhowed no sign. Probably a peo plu i;vur npjiroaehcd a war appar ently inevitable uilli o little tlourish of trumpets, but the Aiiieiienn people uro ready to up hold thu honor of their (lag in for fign KrtM, and to avenge thu un warranted insult and death of their Miilor lads. There is uneasiness felt about y ... i.'. r.M ii, ....,,... I ...i " '"". """V "'; M" " ! ineiit has iin(iiestionabh) news that , at least two Chilian commander ! mean to make a dash for that city the instant war is declared and lay im indemnity on thn city or lay it in ashes. N'aval olllcers are feel ing very serious. They have no doubt of the fighting iiial!tiei of thu Chilian navy nor of their entur prise, and ail say if it does come to blows it will be a very bitterly fought out war. Contlduntial orders woru issued to the general superin tendent of recruiting at Now York to accent every available man lit for artillery or infantry. Kccruits aiu coming forward in unusual num bers just now, and you need not be surprised if next wok's Nhws tells vou that war is surulv on.
