Lrna, March 12.—Senor Javins Novva, the Chilean commissioner in Lima, received on the 4th inst., a telegram from his government official announcing Mr. Trescott and Senor Balmaceda have lignfll the protocol for peace botween Chili and Peru in which the interests of Chili are fully consulted. It is believed that the cession of Tarapaca is provided for, whilst Chili withdraws her former olaim for the immediate payment of a war indemnity, Mr. tt is said to be the bearer of the protocol to Peru. When Mr. Trescott reaches Lima, nccording to the understood terms of the mission he has accepted from Chili, he is to find some one whom the Peruvians will accept to represent the Peruvian rapublic in such a capacity as to warrant him in signing the protocol for rthe county and whose signature in such represen- tativo capacity will be acceptable to Chili and be received by international law as binding on beha.i ot the coun- try for which the signature should be given. He will have ninety days in which to s0o compose the Peruvian faction quarrels as evolve such a re resentative. If the representative found and the protocol be signed, then Ohili is to at once evacuate Pe- ruvian territory, If he be not found, at the expiration of the ninat{ days then the protocol is to be null, and the Chilean occupancy is to be con- tinued. It is generally allowed both in Chili and Peru that since Mr. Tres- cott has been in South America, he has thoroughly acquainted himself with the r«fi situation of affairs and rendered himself competent to act with pecfect firmness in his mission, for domng which he has allalongshown natural disposition, Whether: he can induce the - Peruvians to tfi in choosing a man in the protocol is a problem that, if he solves it in the affirmative, will immo him in the repuhl(’a as the best friend ¢hz have had in this generation.
