The New York Herald has letters from Chile,
dated at Santiago, Joly 16, and Valparaiso, July 17.
The return of the Spaniards to tho Pacific was re?
garded as certain, and work on the fortifications
at Valparaiso was being pushed rapidly forward.
It was rumored that Peru had ordered her squad?
ron to leave the waters of Chile and return to Cal?
lao, and hard feelings had been revived in conse?
quence cn the part of the Chileans. A rapture of
the alliance between the republics would be the
signal for an independent adjustment on the part
of Chile with Spain. A controversy with Brazil is
being carried on in the meantime, regarding the
occupation of Rio J .?.neiro by the Spanish fleet, but
it baa not been given to the public. Buenos Ayres
was about to make a demand on Chile for repara?
tion for certain damage done during the Mendoza
rebellion. The allied Peruvian and Chilean fleets
were still at Coquimbo. Great alarm existed in
Valparaiso at the reported approach of the Spani?
ards.
Soon after the death of Judge BAKES, of Florida,
says the Tallahassee Floridian, Governor WALKES
recommended Hon, JOHN FKIXND, of Fernandina
for the vacancy. General POPE, however, ap?
pointed Mr. J. L. HUSBAND, of the Philadelphia
Bar, who has only boen in Florida since April
last, is not a citizen of the State, and has not
been admitted to the bar of any of the circuits.
We say nothing as to him, but G0n. POPE'S con
dact in the matter, in disregarding tho rocommon
?2.H m of the Governor, is very singular, to say tho
least of it. Under the constitution and laws of this
State no person can fill any office in tho
government unless he is a citizen, gn? ?t
takes twelve month's residence to make a
citizen. We think it highly probable, however,
that Gen. Pope has been imposed upon. It ia
not to be supposed that he would import a Judge,
and yet the effect in this instance is the samo as
if he had done so. In appointing Mr. HUSBAND,
he doubtless imagined that he was at least a citi?
zen, if not a practicing lawyer, of the State, but
it tarns out that he is neither the one nor the
other, and under the circumstances it is not un?
reasonable to suppose that the General would re?
consider the matter if the facts were made known
.io him." The Floridian does not say whether Mr.
FEIENTJ can take the iron-clad, or whether any
other lawver of the State can thus qualify.
CURRENT TOPICS.
THE NEW YORK Ledger Bays : It is computed
that fifty thoneaml Americans arc at preaeut
"doing Europe," and ns our fashionable people aro
migrating in swamis while they romigrnto but
slowly, it ?B not improbable that tho number will
be swelled to one hundred thousand beforo mid?
winter. "Dear, delightful Paris" is, of courso, tho
principal pleasure-ground of this dobonair crowd.
The Centro of Fashion, the Paradise of Intriguo,
tho Circoan City where the flower-wreathed chal?
ice of Temptation is proffered to Wealth and Folly
at every turn, draws our fast young men into its
whirl of disreputable dissipation as surely as a
beacon light on tho seaboard attracts the gullB
and fish-hawk i. The Gorman Spas, next to Paris,
are the places whero Americans most do congre?
gate. Baden-Baden ie very doar to thom in overy
scuee of tho word. There enthusiastic young
"Milor Am?ricaines," who travel qu their dollars,
can "fight tho tiger" to their hearts' con?
tent, and lose their money in grandiose stylo to
needy Teutonic barons and "hard up" duo?
decimo princes, wbo pocket it with infinito sang?
froid. There, too, those of our lady tourists, who
are nothing if not sumptuous, have a fine oppor?
tunity to try conclusions with hcriditary rank in
tho matter of fol-do-rola and furbelows. For, ti
Baden-Baden, bo it known, the fair ladies of fash?
ion wear skirts and bodices of Valenciennes lace
worth $30,000 apiece, and pm tho feathers of their
"splendiferous" hats with aigrettes of diamonds.
Of course, the ladies of our Lords of the Flowing
Well, and the fair dames of the lucromongers who
have picked up wealth on the war-path, are per?
fectly at home at Baden-Baden. But, after all,
there is nothing like a winter in Paris to freshly
gilded Americans of both sexes. Er GENIE is tbero,
and NAPOLEON; Thore is a chance of getting, by
hook or by crook, into tho Tuileries, and being
gazetted among the "piesentod." This is by no
means a great country in the eyes of many of
its mushroom grandoeB. Fortunately, however,
the American millions rate their country and its
institutions at their true value, and now that both
have been saved from ruin at such a tremendous
cost, are prouder of them than ever. Lot the bo?
gus "sovereigns" circulate among congenial
trumpery abroad. We have plenty of the true mo
tal at home that rings full and clear under every test.
SPEAKING or CAPTAIN MABBTATT, the Cornhill
Magazine says: "I offen wondered where and
when Captain MAKEY vre had found the timo to
cultivate his own mind, for ho had had but few ad?
vantages of actual education. I suppose it
was from the great power and habit of observa?
tion which ho possessed that ho learnt intui?
tively. There was hardly a scientific subject
upon which he was not well informed, besides
being, as all tho world knows, a practically
scientific man. I have beard him regret that
he was not born a century later than his time,
as he considered tho world, in a scientific point
of view, as comparatively in its infancy. He
' used to prophesy of tho great discoveries yet to
be made in steam and electricity. He took a
great interest in magnetism and in phrenology, in
both of which he was, I am suro, a firm believer.
He has been told by TOWNSHEND that ho was him?
self a powerful mesmerist, but I do not think ho
ever tested his power. Thore was hardly a
modern language of which he had not some
knowledge-grammatical knowledge, I mean. So
far as speaking them went, although be would rat?
tle off unhesitatingly French, or German, or
Italian, or whatever was called for at the moment,
his thoroughly British tongue imbued them all
with so much of the same accent, that it was dif?
ficult to know what the language was meant for;
indeed, he used to tell a story of how an Italian,
after listening to one of his long speeches in bis
purest Tuscan, apologized to him, and said he did
not understand English. MABBTATT an away to sea
at twelve years of age, so that at best hiB educa?
tion must have been very limited.
THE NEW TOBE LEDOEB has the following stric?
tures on the nuisances of tho day : "Tho personal
system of reporting balla and parties which was
introduced into this country some thirty-five years
ago, but which we hoped had died out in obedi?
ence to the edict of an improved public taste, has
recently been rovived in all its glory. Whole col?
umna are devoted to the most fulsome puffs of
ladies and gentlemen with skeletons of names
filled in with dashes and stars. Tho ladies dresses
aro particularized from waterfall to Hatin slipper
with a freedom that deserves a horsowhip; and
marriage engagements, real or fictitious, aro
blurted out in type with a boldness that seems as
if it must be the result of express permission if
not of pecuniary persuasion.
" Tis pleasant, sure, lo see one's name in print ;
A name's a name al though there's nothing in it,"
except the beginning and tho end, with a few
"* . . ." between. Can it be that'our "fash?
ionable people" like this sort of thing. Let us
hope not; though certainly their asquiosconce, if
nothing more, is to be inferred.
The custom is so utterly snobbish and un
Amencan that it ought to be lampooned out of ex?
istence. Among flying follies there is no fairer
game. R?pertoriai flunkies who make it their
-" duty
To idos the shadow of your uhoo tie,"
should be ruled out of good society.
A CORRESPONDENT writes that religious exclu?
siveness is still maintained in full forco in Sweden.
He saya he was himself lately finod a heavy Bum,
"for allowing people to come together for wor?
ship in his private house, during tho hours that
the Swedish church held service or mass, as it is
yet called, and this fine was exacted by tho sanc?
tion of the King, before whoso court tho case was
tried." He affirms that "priests, assisted by she?
riffs and policemen, do yet enter by forco into peo?
ple's houses, and by force toke tho infants from
anguished mothers' arms, to have them legally
baptized; and a case is known in which a poor
farmer's only cow has been taken in payment.
"A doctor of medicine, the chief city physician,
of a large city in Sweden, and highly esteemed,
has lately felt compelled to leave the country with
his wife and children, owing to the narrow-minded
priest policy of the government, debarring his
growing-up children from the prospect of ovor
making a respectable livelihood in their native
land." The government does all it can to provent
the outflow of emigration, and so far succeeded as
to make it commercially impossible to ship them
direct from Sweden. Consequently they must first
go to England, either to Hu M or London, from
thence they are transferred to Liverpool, whero
they take steamships for New York.
Cm ET JUSTICE CHASE writes to a friend in Phil?
adelphia as follows, in correction of recent reports
concerning his private fortune: "I don't want to bo
represented as particularly poor or particularly
disinterested. I think I am worth now about ono
hundred thousand dollars. I should at any rate
be quito willing to take that sum in fivc-twontios,
and make a clear conveyance of all I havo in tho
world to anybody who will pay my debts. I would
willingly be worth a great deal more if I knew of
an honest way to got worth more. All that tho
people are interested in knowing is, that I haven't
a cent which of right belongs to them. I didn't
serve them to make money out of them, but to
save money tor them; and I really feel that tho
rascals who are slandering me ought to be de?
nounced, and the mean attempt to injure mc in
the public esteem exposed. It is much more im?
portant to the people than it is to mo that those
who havo served them faithfully sholl be fully and
generally sustained, otherwise rascality will bo at
a premium, and thoso who aro trying to make
them suspect me will run their arms to their shoul?
ders in theil* money bags."
THE PALL MALL GAZETTE says: ''Another, and
this time the most eminent, veteran of classical
philology has gone to rest. AUODST BOECEH died
on tho 3d of August, tho birthday of the founder
of tho Berlin Univortity, FREDERICK WILLIAM III.,
the day which, for the last thirty years he had

OEM. POPE'S JURY ORDER.
In our paper of Thursday, under t?e tele?
graphic head, we published General POPE'S
Jury Order (No. 53), directing that Grand and
Petit Jurors in his District shall be drawn ex?
clusively from lists of registered voters with?
out discrimination.
Wc learn, upon high authority, that
this order is approved by General GRANT
?and that it is very probable that similar
orders will soon be issued in the other
Military Districts. We learn furthermore,
that the adoption of this measure in this
District will depend upon the number of whites
that may register. If a considerable number
of whites register, the Registration lists will
also become the lists of jurors ; if otherwise,
General GRIFFIN'S order, now in force in
Texas, may become the rule here : requiring
the test oath to be submitted to every juror.
GENKRAL POPE AND HON. B. F. H ILL.
The prcBS of the whole country at present is
occupied with the consideration of the letter
recently addressed by General POPE to Gen?
eral GRANT. Tho views and comm " the
several organs of public opinion are of course,
as is always thc case in political questions, in
accordance with the tenets of the respective
parties they represent. Thus, if we take up a
Radical sheet, we know beforehand that we
shall there find the course recommended by
Gen. POPE toward the Southern States, ap?
proved and commended; while, of course, the
Democratic press is violently opposed to it, and
denounces, in no measured terms, the spirit
that could have conceived such a project. There
are a few Conservative Republican papers also
that have expressed a decided disepprobation
of the tyrannical and summary manner, in which
the commander of the Third Military District
proposes to deal with truculent ex-Confede?
rates. Of these we may mention such pa- !
pers as the St. Louis Republican, the Spring- !
field Republican, the New York Sun, and
some other independent papers of more or less
influence.
But on the other hand, the New York
Time*-a paper which heretofore has always
leaned tc mercy's side, and been consid?
ered vci-y unsound and heterodox by the
high priests of tho Republican party-has of
late thrown all its influence into the scale of
Congressional reconstruction, and is giving an
unqualified support to the administration of the
Military Commanders in tho South. Much has
been said of a revulsion of feeling, now going on
in the North, and the sensation leaders of the
Herald are pointed to as irrefutable evidences
of this revolution of public sentiment. As aa
offset it may be stated that in April last, when
Goneral Order No. 10 was issued in this Mili?
tary District, the New York Times commented
severely upon it, characterizing it, in terms
very uncomplimentary, as a very tyrannical
measure. Now, this same paper is a staunch
supporter of General SICKLES, and of General
POPB, fully endorsing their orders. The Times'
to<\ we have reason to know, is a paper that is
Kidd* read among the best classes of the citi?
zens of New York. True, wc cannot say what
its motives may bo for this course. But surely
no sane man, who knows anything of the past
history of New York newspapers, will question
thc honesty of the Times, while he st akes his faith
on thc Herald. The Evening Post, another influ?
ential New York paper, which has always been
among the Conservative Republican organs,
now also takes ground against tho President
and in favor of thc policy of Congress.
Gen. GRANT, who has heretofore been looked
upon as one of the mainstays of Conservatism,and
is even now looked upon as the probable Demo?
cratic candidate for the next Presidency, upoa
the receipt of this letter of General POPE,
took the unusal course of at once laying it
before tho public, which, there is every reason
to believe, he would not have done had he
not approved the sentiments set forth in the let?
ter. We regret to say, moreover, that the
Northern press is not indignant anti shocked
at the contents of Gen. POPE'S letter, anti, if
wc may judge hythe general tone of the pa?
pers, we should say that this letter in a meas?
ure adumbrates the next act of Congress on
the subject of reconstruction.
Wc print this letter in another part of this
morning's NEWS, as we believe its careful pe?
rusal will be instructive to our readers, lt will
appear that the course of the Hon. 15KN.IA.MIN
ll. HILL, of Georgia, was the immediate pro?
voking cause that led Gen. POPE to write this
letter. While we have no sympathy with tho
views expressed by Gen. POPE, or the course
he recommends, wc are not prepared to say
that Mr. HIM. did not provoke them. We have |
on several occasions examined Mr. HILL'S
speeches and Notes and have expressed our
dissent. We will, therefore, content ourselves
at this time by .simply quoting thc following,
which we have not seen not iced in any of our ex?
changes that have discussed Gen. POPE'S letter.
Says Mr. HILL-"1 earnestly hope thc people
of each of the ten States will go boldly for?
ward and preserve and continue their existing State
Governments, and hold all elections in the man?
ner and at the time prescribed by existing
Slate Constitutions, will choose officer* qualified
according to existing State Constitutions und lutes.
If any citizen or officer shall bc interfered with
in exercising his rights under these laws, or in
discharging the duties of any office to which he
may bc chosen, let him make the issue fear?
lessly."
Now what docs all this mean ? Simply re?
sistance to thc law of Congress. General POPE
then, after all, cannot bc the tyrant he is re?
presented to be, when he permits a free press
and free speech, as is proved by the publica?
tion of these sentiments, and by thc fact of his
not having arrested Mr. HILL. Indeed we seo
it stated in some of the papers that thc object
of the letter of General POPE is a defence of
his course in not arresting Mr. HILL, ns he
hail been directed by General GRANT. Of thia
we cannot speak positively.
In conclusion, we will give Ex-Governor
J. E. BftowVs remarks on the passage above
quoted from Mr. HILL, which will show the
full absurdity of thc counsel of thc distinguish?
ed Georgian :
The law of Congress declares the existing Stato
governments illegal, and gives thc Military Com?
mander power to set thom aside at ploasuro.
It also confers Buffrago on tho freedmen, and
allows no election to bo held till they, with the
white men not disfranchised, are registered. Tho
law also makes it the duty of tho Commander of
each Military District to ace that ita provisions aro
executed, and gives him all tho military force
necessary to that purpoHC. Now, duppoeo on tho
first Wednesday in Octobor next, tho pcoplo of
Atlanta, or thoso within tho roach of any othor
military force within tho State, delndod by Mr.
HILL'S advico, should open tho polls and proceed
to hold an eloction for Governor, Members of the
Legislature, etc., and should allow none but white
men, who are qualified under existing Stato law?,
to vote. How long would tho polls be open before
all engaged in the election would be under arrest
and on their way to prison ? They would, however,
have this single consolation, in their misfortune,
Mr. HILL advised thom "to make the issue fear?
lessly."
Again, suppose tho elections wera held in dif?
ferent parts of the State, without the knowledge
bf the military, and tho Legislature elected should
assemble and attempt to inaugurate the Governor
elect. What does any man, not blinded with pas?
sion, nor demented with prejudice, suppose would
be the result?
They would be treated as President JOHNSON
treated the existing government of tho State at
the time of the surrender. The Legislature would
be forbidden to sit, and the Governor would be
arrested and imprisoned. And Mr. HILL, should
he attempt either to vote or hold office, in accord?
ance with his advice to the people, would Bhare
tho same fate. All who know him are doubtless
satisfied that he would not daro attempt to prac?
tice upon the advice which ho gives others on this
subjeot. Like the other points in the proposed
remedy, this, too, is utterly impracticable, delu?
sive, deceptive and hopeless.
If Mr. HILL is sincere in this advice, let him
"make the issue fearlessly." Let him havo an
election held under 'existing State Constitution
and laws,' and let him go and vote at it, or accept
office under it. This will test the question, and SB
he advises it, let him come forward and take the
responsibility, and lead his followers. Don't bo
afraid. Try it. You say there is no Constitutional |
difficulty in the way. Come up to it like a roan,
'make the issue fearlessly,' yes, fearlessly and in?
dependently. That is the way to decide the con?
troversy. If you succeed we will soon be rid of
military government and negro suffrage. If you
fail your followers will seo your remedy is a hum?
bug.
Some of our readers may be surprised that
we should speak so frequently of Mr. HILL.
Our answer is, that he has become the repre?
sentative man of a large party in the South,
who most diligently reproduce his speeches
and writings. He thus leads the Northern
people to believo that these are the sentiments
of the people of the South at large ; and for the
sins of a few, all may have to suffer.
