S, 1RS2' J.F IIILLOCA.Y.. .Edllnr. English Influence in America. i rt There is not "a countryin Cen tral oi soath America werc "Eng lish influence Js not to-day far more potent than the influence of the United States. England monop- - -olizw their trade, dictates their. a J policy and from year to. year grotfs' steadily in prestige" aridp"ffW?r among these countries. It was the aim of Secretary. Blaine to see if our nearest neighbors could not be brought into closer alliance and better -commercial relation, with the United States. eru w.w very friendly to us, andhad every cause in the world to lLstrust and hate- England. Chili cnWhc other hand, is but the commercial agent of England, and with the aid of English iron-clads, commanded by a British-born 'admiral, has. con quered Peru. It was the openly avovyed opin ion of Secretary Blaine that Chili, with England behind her, should not be allowed to despoil Peru and appropriate her resources. He in duced the PresiJcut lo send a friendly commissioner to protest against, such a. result and.to use all our influence, while conceding to Chili a proper war indemnity, to save the national existence of Peru and anchor her as a fast friend of the United States for nil the fu ture. Mr. Blaine left the Depart ment of State. Mr. Frclinghuv sen came in. Mr. Trescott's ' in structions, were revoked and Chili practically informed that she might do as she pleased with her prostrate and bleeding victim, ' where upon English papers that had been uenouncin'j Mr. Blaine t 4 and his policy fell to praising Mr. Frelinghuyscn in terms of extrav agant eulogy. The London Times lias gone so tar as to declare that , jjEflighuysen could not h'sMSZSl?1? .. Please Eng- -rr -r - - ; ) f - vwcori rtn'lhfttr ct-vnnirfl Kulmlf t. .-c.: i-ii..'i.. . r-i . ... r . iremuiy luveiy jor-.ipn!l tiltll, out how is it for Brother Jonathan? Dowing street' proclaims a foreign policy for the. promotion of Brit ish interests in South Ameiica, and Mr: Frelinghuyscn "bobs up c lenely" to indorse it. He, of course, secures the praise of English statesmen and of English papers, but such praise at such a time is proof of the destruction of Ameri can interests and the surrender of American prestige. It is piaisc that no American statesman can afford to receive and is prima, facia evidence that ilio. interests of his own country have been sacrificed. Last year Peru sent products to the markets of the world worth fifty million dollars. The tonnage of English ships wa- nearly as large as the cotton exports of the 'United States. Tt was the belief of Blaine that n country of such vast resources for .commerce and "trade was worth saving a as friend to the United States, and it ought not to be turned over as a com 'mercial dependency of Great Brit--ain. It was in power to secure its friendship to secure a good share of its freights for American manu turers and American merchants. But Mr, Frqljnghuyspn has or dered that no contest shall be made and that the American flag be hauled down in the waters of the Soirth Pacific. Wo can all recall what it was ' that Gen.-Dix declared should be done, to any man who hauled down , tho American flag, but what pun ishment is commensurate with the crime a crime still, even if a - blunder of hauling down the American flag from a hundred American vessels at the bidding of John Bull?. Snfllcieut for the Day. The prophecy of that ancient fraud '"Mother Shiptrm,'' affcrded tnany of the scan- brethren an op- portunity for grave fc3r and trem bling, lest all sublunary thing3 should end in '81. To that class of people whose stock of worries is running low and who take dis mal pleasure in having so'mcthrng to fret about, comes suitable ma terial iurhe enunciations of that distinguished astronomer Prof. Proctor. Thib celestial fcurvcyor announces that the comet of 1S80 will coma back in 1807, and its orbit is contracting with such swiftness that it must inevitably come into collision with the sun. Whenever such untoward event takes place there is but one Chance in 8900 that a certain change will not happen? Should that one chance not prevail and the bodies in question come in sudden and disastrous contact the solid nu cleus of tne comet and the meteo rites in its train will, by reason of tho transmission of motion into heat, cause a tremendous increase of heat in the sun that will burn and shrivel this little earth of osr. So reasons Prof. Proctor; tin? ac count agrees exactly with the Aj" calypse; if some inspired Christian will but figure upon some of the prophecies and prove that the year 1S97 is meant as the years in which all this shall come to pass he and the professor together can work up a tremendous excitement. Fifteen years is little enough :r preparation; so that those of us who believe it should at once com mence setting their houses ii or der, for when science and prophecy get pulling together there must be somcthinjxin it. The Chinese gill. Is the Senate last Monday, the Chinese bill being und r discuss ion, Senator Slater, in the course of his remarks said that the small ness of the number of Chinese in the country, as compared with our total population, had been ur-cd as a reason for discrediting the earnest appeals of the people of the Pacific states. He answered this by showing that Chinamen had remained almost entirely on the Pacific cdast, and asserted that the adult Chinese male laboring element in California was neatly equal lo the male adult white la boring population, as the immi grants consist almost wholly of male adults without families. He further argues that the p.iralh 1 suggested by Hoar between the negro and the Mongolian was not appaivnt, as the former was a us tive and identified with the coun try, while, the l.ilter i aualii-u to our customs, religion and civiliza tion. Cameron said in 187l he votcu against the lo-passouger bill, but lid would vote for the pending bill, and wished to say in explanation of his vote that, in the vetoed bill, olie of the contracting parties to the treaty proposed to abrogate it without consent of the other, but under the first article of the treaty of September, 18F0, Congress could, with the smit scrupulous good faith, enact th proposed legislation. That arti cle expressly santioncd it. True, the census of 1SS0 showed th.it less titan '20,090 of these im migrants now remained it; the United States,andthc number now entering our ports does not exceed 3000 a month, and those figures arc notveryalarming; but when theim mensc and overflowing population of China is considered, and that the entire cost of bringing Chinese laborers from Shanghai to San Franeisco docs not exceed S10, we must sec that China can, if no re striction bo placed upon the immi gration of her laborers, pour count less thousands of them into tl.c ports of California and Oregon5 Detailing the characteristics of im migrants, based npon information, to show their ability with Ameri can laborers, ho said he saw this morning a telegram from Portland, Oregon, stating that the six com panies were now hurrying coolies into that State to construct the Northern Pacific railroad. He was one of those who believed that either the Anglo-Saxon Or Mon golian race would ultimately pos sess the Pacific States. Mr. George announced that he i . ii i i .i i -it i emphatically mdored the hill and amendments of Grovcrand Farley. Two of the reasons governing his vote would be, first, because with almost entire unanimity, the peo ple of the States most affected by Chinese immigration desired its passage, and as clear and direct, not a bccond hand or roundabout! protection of American laborers, against the degrading and inferior race now threatening to overwhelm them. Iicplying.to what he char acterized as swciA3ipo jjilhutnarti- tarian phdonhy, he said he pre jferred to incur thccharge of ificoni Isistency lather than subject the people of the Pacific States to a continuance of the, dangers to which they are exposed, although he did not believe the bill trans cended the constitutional principle.
