CHARGES OF CORRUPTION AGAINST DISTINGUISHED OFFICIALS—NEW LINE OF STEAMERS FOr THE COAST—CONCESSION TO AN AMERICAN COMPANY FOR A TRAM ROAD AND STREET RAILROAD—NEW CUSTOM-HOUSE REGULATIONS, From Our Special Correspoud.at. Liva, Jan. 13, 1867, As Istated in my last, Sefior Pacheco, Minister of Foreign Relations, has tendered his resignation, \'1ul as yet it has not been accepted by Col. Prado. It is the general belief that Pacheco only went through the form of resigning, it having been arranged previously that his resignation would not be accepted. Another serious charge has been made against the Minister of Justice, Sefior Tegeda, by Mr. Bogardus, of collusion with Barreda andl Prado, if the statement made by Bogardus be true. 1 can only here say what is daily Deing repeated by all parties. That a more corrupt set of individuals could not possibly have been got together than the present members of Prado’s Cabi- net, and {his in a country where corruption runs riot among politicians, is saying a great deal. That there is some ground for the accusation that has been preferred against Barreda, Prado, and Tejeda no reasonable person can doubt, from the extraordinary steps_that have been taken by the present Cabinet and the Attorney-General to guash_the bill of indict- ment by subterfuges that reflect little honor upon them, and entirely unworthy of the meanest petti- foggor at an Alderman’s Court. Mr. Bogardus, how- cver, has_determined to bring the matter before Congress in February next, when all documents w il be produced; and you may then expect some pretty diselosures about the Peruvian-Spauish war and its au s, One of the great events of the past fortnight has been the establishing of a National Steamboat Com- rny. to run opposition to the English monopoly that or the last 24 years have had this coast to themselves. The encroachments of the P’. 8. N. Company have com- pelled the merchants here, in self-defense, to establish anew line. The Government, convinced also of the absolute necessity of freeing itself from the exactions of the English company, have generously loaned for years two of their transport amers, the Chalaco and Sachaca, thus giving th tional Company time to obtain other boats. Here is a good chance for any enterprising steamship owner in New-York to enter into one of the best paying routes in the world. And it would afford your correspondent much pleas- ure to _afford them and obtain for them any information that ~they ight reguire hefore goin into _the ‘speculation. One thing I feel led to say, aud that is, that all immunities and ad- tages that ha n concede the P.S.N- Company will be granted to an) that comes here. _And I feel confident: that one of the stock wonld be taken up bhere in no time. There is a decided and well-prononnced feeling in favor of American eapital here, and we may add to this the untiring and unflagging energy tow rd ad- vaucing American interests of the United States Min- ister, Gen. Alvin P. Hovey, who is the first repre- sentative of our country to Pern who has really de- voted himself for the beneiit of his fellow-citizens and American commerce. A very important concession has jnst heen made to 1 company represented by Col, Ferrand, Braisted to build a tram_road between Lima and Calla: 150 the privilege of 1 'inxg arail road through the principal streets of L . The cap- jtal of the company is 2.000,000 solcs. he privilege s for 28 years, Shares are to be »«d_on the mar- ket during the present y and one-third to be re- served for sale In Peru. Government concedes any lands they n [lmmcss th required for the use of the road, and all priv: s are to be valued by assessors. The company will place their toll-gates upon the road at such places as they may deem fit, and the Government binds itself to enforce their tariff. There is not the Yeast doubt but the pro- ectors of the road will make a splendid profit from the speenlation. y Twould particlarly eall the attention of American merchants to the new regulations of the Custon- House in Pern. The duties on all goods that are to be dispatched will be collected on the sworn value of the invoice, which must be stated in writing. Should the Custom-House authorities have reagon to Velieve that the goods are undervalued, the Govern- ment will take the goods on their ount, at the de- clared value in the invoice, and_pay for them, with- out the owner of the goods having any right to ap- red against the measure. Already several invoices have been taken upon Government account for uu- der valuation, The bank known as La.

THE NEW STEAMSHIP LINE TO CHINA AND JAPAN— OUR TRADE WITH THE CELESTIAL EMPIRE—CHI- NESE IMMIGRATION—COMMERCE OF BAN FRAN- CI5C0. From Our Special Correspondent. BAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 1, 1807, The departure of the new steamship Colorado to- ay for Yokohama and Hong Kong inaugurates a new era in the history of American commerce. The “trade of the East,” that prize which all com- mercial nations of modern times—the Portngese, the Spanish, the Genoese, the Dutch, and the English— have necessarily and yigorously contended for through three centuries, promises to fall at last to the great Yankee nation. The military power of En- gland in the last century opened intercourse with the East Indies, and up to this time she enjoys the {ruits of that trade by a roundabout voyage. The trade of China and Japan has up to this time re- mained comparatively untouched. To effect this connection the United States Government has wisely established a steam mail route between San Fran- cisco and China. The original bill granted $500,000 for monthly trips, touching at the Sandwich Islands. The contract was taken Dby the Pacific Mail Steamship Company, and the first steamer, the Golden City, arrived here to-day. Whether the Pacific Mail Company would be allowed by the Government to leave the Sandwich Islands out of the proposed service bas been a guestion of no ordinary moment here ever since the establishment of the line was first contemplated and the contract taken. While the great advantages of a direct com- munication between this port and Japan and China were everywhere admitted, it was equally desirable to secure a regular and speedy means of communica- tion with the Islands, the trade with which has been steadily on the increase for several years past. A line of fast-sailing packets, making the voyage to Honolulu in from 12 to 15 days. has been doing a paying business for several years, bringing the pro- ducts of that island in the shape of sngar, molasscs, coffce, and whale oil, and carrying to Houolulu in return assorted merchandise from San Francisco. Steam communication was established with the steamer Ajax in 1853, the trip of 2,200 miles occupying from 8 to 12 days ; but the business not proving re- munerative, she was withdrawn after making two trips. Since that time, the trade between this port and Honolulu has been carried on exclusively by sailing vessels, the difference in the rates of freight —§14 per tun—rendering all competition by steam- hip unprofitable. The trip to Honolulu of 2,200 miles hus bo made a separate affair,the company s boats ing passengers and mails throngh in about 7 day: direct route between San Francisco and Yol 2 is 4,761 miles nb, or great circle a divergence to Honolalu wonld require an extra dis- tance on the voyage out of 747 miles, which wonld be se on the Lome, or return trip, to & les, involving a loss to the public on the round trip of 1,704 miles. The time between San Franciseo and Yokohama direct will be between 17 and 18 days. Whereas to touch at Honoluln, allowing one day in port, would require 22 to 23 days. More than all this, asteamer such as the Colorado cannot enter the port of Honolnlu without inenrring great risk. A GRAND CHINA MAIL DINNER was given at the Occidental Hotel last night at which 250 merchants and _invited guests were pres- ent. Gov. . K ided. Letters of congratula- tion were read from Major- Ieck and Admiral Thatcher, and speeches made_by Gov. Low, ex-G Stanford, A. A.

It has been assumed th have for centuries unknown amply supplied th own wante and have made considerable_progress in manufactures that, therefore, they will buy little of the Un: 1 short, that they to dispose of th us tea and silk, but require little or nothing in exchange. This assu erroucous, and all arg ts deducted or based there- on are, of course, equal! The facts in the case ave bri &I{v these: hard labor on the primitive individual hand system has always Deen and stilk continues to be the basis of Chinese manufacture of whatever kind or qual This fact is too patent to be disguised. This entire system is to be—indeed, al: ¥ is toa very considerable ex- tent—revoluti d, by the American system of im- proved machine labor. ~ Asregards*the great staple, cotton and cotton goods, the probable results of this new communication stand out in colors that cannot be mistaken. 400,000,000 of Chin a0, accord- ing to various estimates, froui 20 to 50 yards of cot- ton goods per head per aunum, a guantity equal to 13,000,000,000 of rds per annum of home-mad goods. The greater part. indeed the whole of thi enormous aggregate, can and will be supplied b American manufacturers. The proof is this: Filty years since, the United States and England imported pankeens from Chiia. Soon after the war of 1855, British machine goods began to find their way to India; in 1820 England exported to India and China 14,000,000 yards of 1uachine goods; in 1560, the trade | had grown to 1,045,000,000 yards. Up to that date, that is up to_the outbreak of our Rebellion, India bought of Great Br in manufactured goods more cotton than she sold her in the raw state. Machinery and skilled labor revolutionized the whole character and course of trade between Great Britain and those countries. In 1565 we find from_the published reports that the export from the British Isles to India amounted to £16,4 000, of which nearly two-thirds (£10,019,001) ton goods. The same operation has comm, regurd to China. England sent thither, in 150, 243,654,000 yards, valued at £ 043, while the value of all other articles sent thither reached only y. £1,671,181. The whole British trade with China, in 1860, was as follows: Imports.

The Southern Relief Commission, appointed by the large meeting held at the Cooper Institute on Friday eve- ning last, invite the attention of their fellow citizens to the necossity of immediate, generous and universal effort in behalf of the famine-smitten districts of the South. The war, of which the Southern States were mainly the theater, through so many successive years, notonly killed and maimed multitudes of husbands and fathers, and thus frightfully added to the number of widows and or- phans; but fmpoverished the people, by taking from them the present means of producing wealth, or, to any considerable extent, the ordinary comforts of life. Thelr cattle, horses, fences and _implements of hnsbandry are gone, to & degeee of which the agricultural districts of the Korth kuow next to nothing; and ycars of fruitful sea- sons must come and go before the Bouth has again the power to produce the wealth in which she once luxuriated.

SAMUEL WILKESON, esq.—Dear Sir : Yours of the 12th fnst. was recelved on my retnrn from a short trip South, and, notwithstanding the pressure of other affairs, I make haste to answer it. You want to know the amount of Western agriculturaj produce the Cambria Iron Works now make a market for.” In trying to ascertain this, I have made my investigations broader than for this particular point, and I send you the total amount, thinking that the particulars might be use. ful for purposes of comparison—say to a statesman of Justin 8, Morrill's grip of the subject. The Cambria Iron Works make a market indirectly for an fmmense deal of produce which I cannot pretend to trace. They have created, and they sustain, the popula- tion and diversified industries of the city of Johnstown which wonld be nothing without them. Ican only ana- Iyze and follow the wages of its workmen; and this I have done ver‘y carefully, leaning alwnys to the safe side. My anal finlo and estimate, contained in my letter to the Tron and Bteel Association, Lasbeen before the l:onnlrr for more thnnhn year, and has elll('lted much -dv‘nru‘ cmli cism, both at e road; b with effect, ansTnl%)nflflrwc M%WOX%E”I fi%fi approximation to the tmtlx—cem:nllv, T cannot improve uPou it, The cost of produflnf raifroad fron remains about the same as then; and few, if any, rallmakers this country, to-day, who have to purchase their coal and* any large proportion of their pig metal, are producin rafls at a 1css net cost than $32 to $5 ¥r tun, exclusive all interest on capital, royalties, &c. The following state- ment, taken from our books, shows the cost of rails in the month of October last, and is made up somewhat in the manner of that published in Zhe London Engineer of Oct. 19, 1866, showing cost of English rails, viz: % Tyw’ Cosr ov Makivg Bairs.—While the strike la gofng on in the Noth, the Welsh bouses can by Clexeland pigs, pay 107 et tun for ear- riage, work up the iron into rai Len cut out the Biddlesbo ironmasters in the market, Whiie the Northern puddiers, w!
