The President did net wish to sanc- tion the billsas passed, and a complete dead luck had eneued in the government system in consequence. Congress adjourned without voting the usual sup- plies; but, although this act was viewed with some alarm, it was thought that everything would be rec- tified at a general election which was at hand. All parties were disposed to yield to the public voice ex” pres-ed thiough the ballot box, and there was to talk of an sppeal to arms, which is a hopefal sign of future peace for the republic. The parties in the field were: the Pelucones, allied wish the clergy; the liberals, composed ,ot the bone and sinew and talent of the country, and the govera- ment party. The President was in delicate health, owing to the cares of State affairs, the recent death of bis son, and present illness of his wife. No mizistry had been formed. The national holidays were to be celebrated with great pomp, and it was thought they wonld pass over quietly. Admiral Lord Dundonald (Lord Cochrane) had been voted an admiral of the Chilean vavy, with full pay and a medal, for his services during the war of liberation. A Chilean «a: veose! bad seized on the american ship Sperteman, of Lorton, for loading copper ore in the territory dispated between Bolivia and Chile. The Spovteman had @ Bolivian license, but was formally surrenéered notwithstanding. Hon. D. A. Stark- westber, United States Minister in Valparaiso, had taken leave of the President previous to his return home, and his official good wishes were kindly reci- procated. Railroad specaiation still progressed, end sone steamship projects, one having for its ob- ject tbe shortening of communication with Earope, were well received. The heavy exports of specie had rendered trade dull The railroad from Val- paraiso to Santiago proceeded steadily. The steamer Maule, from New York, bad been approved of by government. Money was ata very igh rate of interest. Governor Bigler, the new Minister of | the United states, wus looked for daily The duties , on coal aud copper would soon be taken off. The | Cxports for 6.x mouths were valued at $8,813,473. & telegraph Jive trom Valparaiso to Panama, and another to Buenos ayres, were spoken of. lu Pero the revoladon bad not ended, nor did it ogress. Castilla had left his camp at Pugneno, ond General San Ramon had gone te Pana. Islay was (he -eat of strife at latest date, and some Ogoting bad taken place there between the govern. ment forces and the revolutionis's The people of Arequipa haa seized on all Castilla’s correspondence made up for the mail steamer. General Castilla was still prisoner to President Castilla at Callao. Hon. Mr. Sullivan, British Minister at Lima, was buried on the 16th of August. It was said that his a-sassin was 4 Frenchman. Efforts had been made to arrest bim, but they failed #0 far, although his | wife and family were in custooy. The guano trade “ws were sill unset ied. We publish a translation ot the important convention agreed to between the United S'ates and the government of Peru, with re spect to the vessels of neutrals. The ci'y of Puira bad been newrly destroyed by an earthquake, and property to the amount of half a million ot dollars was lost. Fever had eubsided in Bolivia, after sweeping away @ large number of the Indians. The yield of silver from the Potcei mines was very large, and it was thought that the circulation of counter'eic coin would be checked in consequence. Congress was opered, with the Archbishop of La Plata as Presi- dent of the Senate, In Honolulu the influenza raged as an epidemic. The food procuce of the islands was abundant. The Comestic imports of the vort of Horolul for the first vix months of this year amounted to $139.6.7, and the exports to $241,000. News from Christmas Island at Honolulu reported the discovery ot a sait lake there. at Tabiti, Sosiety IMands, trade was exceelingly dull, and there was very littls shipping in port. Toe French steamer Milan had returved to Tahiti from Bligh’s Lagoon, without having succeeded in gettiog information of wrecks recently di-covered on the island. The natives having disappeared, the French- men burned their Canoes and houses, and tried to set fire to the herbage on the isiand, but on account of the heavy ava continued rains could not succeed. Bligh’s Lagoon is covered with toe roa tree, which produces the thatch in which oranges are wrapped in Tahiti for the Califortia markets. The American schooner Fmms L. Simpson landed at the island aad recovered some articles, ond identified the wrecks ae being those of the schooners Sarah ann and Archimedes. Mrs Stevens, (of Papete) who had two sons on board the Sarsh Ann, bad made ar- rargements with Hort Brothers, of San Francisco, to go to the eame island and seek for ber sons.

Our Australian files contain some very interesting @tatistics relative to the yield and export of gold fom the colony. The shipments during the ‘first eix montbe of the present year show a decrease of 17.196 ounces, as compared with those for the cor: nsponding period of 1856.

The new Tebusntepec grant and the case of Mr. Smith, American Consul at Mazatlan, were the prominent topics of discussion at the last accounts, Our correspondent at Bridgetown, Barbadoes, writing on the 16th alt, says:—Bince the Ist inst. five vessels from the United States have arrived with breadstuffs, and have been readily taken up: owing to the supply having been exhausied, at fuil prices.

It is generally believed that the British government will accept the loyal ane patriotic offer of the several Governors of these Islands. Captain Darant, of the British schooner Endeavor, from K ngaton, Jamaica, with two of his crew, were murdered in the iatter partof Jane, by Indians, at Cape La Vela, in the Spanish Main, into which part be had run to repair damages. ‘The Netherlanders held another meeting on Satur. crowded out by the press of other matter.

These are enormous diffarcnices between our position and that of our predecessors of 1837 and former convulsions; and we may reesonably reokon on a certain benefit to score from them. There is, besides, a great deal of real money in the country. New York copecially is solidly rich. There is reagon to believe that within the pact few days very considerable purchases, for cash, of State and even railway securities have been made at the Stock Exchange and at private sales, by persons who, seeing theae securities unn- nally @epreesed, choose this time to invest in them. One cannot but wonder at men risking money in such a way when it could be used qith- out the least riek in the operations of commerce, aud yield a profit of 5810 per cent a month. But this, it seems, is the public fancy; men who dare not buy the best paper will grve $10 a share for Erie stock. The fact only proves that there is, in the hands of individuals, a very considerable amount of ready money seeking profitable tavest- ment; an amount, we ehould eay, far larger than would be required tocary our merchuuts through their tovbles if it were applied in the proper way. Xo such element of comfort existed in 1837, 1825, or 1817. Tum Reversion at TEE Acapemy.—In the pre- sent fivancial revolution, when all the bubbies of the day are breaking about us—when flour aud grain and provisions and dry goods and produce and stocks, and everything but hard specie cur- repey, are falling, falling, falling, it is curfous to pote the eflect upon the fashionable worid ; and this is nowhere better developed thai in the re sult, 0 far, of the Opera season attghe Academy. The dircetcrs, expecting a strong“competition, put om an extra amount of steam, and adopted the bull system with everything, buying at the very bighbest price, aud expecting to realize ac- cordingly from the generous public. But there is something wrong with the generous public, The eeperous public has its notes to pay, and cannot borfeq any money to pay them. So the generous public sbuts itself up in its libraries, in the Fifth “eyenue and elsewhere, and goes into abstruse mathematical calculations, endea- voriug to eave eome'hing of its expense for luxu- ries. Off goee the Opera for the first thing— thea cut off a dinner party, and postpone the mid winter ball. The Opera involves many lide expenses onteide of the price of tickets, aud it cannot be afforded. Strangers in the city also £] the pressure, aud prefer a gmaller inveetment ot ities theatres. The Opera stock has had | at Taye fell, The receipts tor the past week y per cent less thaf those of the first, is rather a wide margia between six It b jong been industriously preached tha Sard ago aud two thowvand five hundred dollars, It the 3d, on which day several millioos of mercan tile paper fell due at bank, would witness an uu- paralleled cumber of mercantile faiures; it is erotifying to perceive that, with the exception ot one dumestic banking house, whose embi rassments are imputed to the disorganizatiod bs our domestic exchanges, and to the unfortamate, operations of Boston branob, the hoares which euspended payment ou Saturday were uoiforaly tecond or third raw, twieed, last week, asa whole, wae less revere then some of ite prede- cereors, though there was no apparent relaxation in the stringency of the money market. It is quite ridiculous to euppose, as some of eur COtemporal ies seem to do, that the revulsion is over, and that we may fall to aud spend money like water once more. A revulion like the pre- tent is not the affair of adsy, or a week, ora month. It took tweive years to prepare; it will take at least some months to work out. Tha vulsion which followed the war of 1812 la three years; that of 1825 laved two; that of 1837 lasted four.

There are, however, roasne for believing that the present reasou of calanities will be briefer tben any former eimiiar period Railroads, #teamere and & legrephs hive actually condensed time: we live a year in thirty duys, old style; we crowd into a week movements and eveate which occupied the last peneration at least month.
