With- inn fow weelss the situation has under- gonea complete change, and now the proposed union appears less prolable than at any other time since itbegn to he agitated. The revolution inSan Sal- vador is vesponsible for thisaltered con- dition of aftairs, and the comjlications which have arisen, and which according to o devices threaten to become mow soriows, may mt be ad- justed without a conlflict involving all the The attitude of Guatemala is now the disturbing and dangerous in- fluence in the situition. That country isnearly equal to all the othersin popu- lation and wealth, and she issuspected ate the successor to the late presidentof Salvador, having Hun- durasin sypmpithy with her, Inthee gency Salvador, it is said, is appealing gunand Costa Rica to aid her in repelling the interforence of Guate: malain her internal affaivs Guutemala’s aflairs have wniformly been in the hands of military dictators, The liberty of the pres, the right of freo speech, and the sufety of life and property, do not exist ther. The plan of o foderationof the Central Ameriean states originated with one of these mili- tary rulers, Genersl Barrios, who sought to eflect it in 1885 by force of arms, hav- ing the support of the then presidents of Sulvador and Hondums. Barrios lost his life in this undertak- ing, but it was taken up by his successor, General Barrilas, who sucecoded so far as to place one of his toolsat the head of the government of Salvador, -Aftera time the project of s union was revived, with good promise of ultimate success, but the revolution in Salvador, in which Menendez, the fin- strument of Guatemala, Tost his life, has given the seheme n severe set-hack, and it isnow predicted by those most fu- miliae with the public sentiment in Cen- al Awerica, and purticu- ates, | njoy o free, libeml government. | importation of Americanpork wis only U/ DA KK, M NDAY, JULY 17, 1806. larly In nd Costa fadl.

TARIFFS ON AMERIC DU The French sens asvotel in favor of adutyof three francs on corn and six francs on corn meal.

It wa ved that the o, use o American could not. themselves againgt it. The prolibiting the impor tion of pork was defended as right, and the action of the sente showed that this was the predominant opinion, The unfriendly attitude to- warl Amervican products thus mani- fested will hardly be allowed toescipe the attention of congress, which has alvendy had before ita bill proposingre- taliastion in the event of European gov- ernments relusing to remove ov modify the restrictions imposed upon American hog products.

Parllel with each of the 1 known copper-colored helts is another well defined belt of the same color. Thebelton the northis hest de- fined. Between this belt and the old oneis a zone of intense brightness. A similar zone scparates the southerly beltfrom the old one of copper color. Theadditional copper-colored belts are of unequal breadth. At one observation the northern belt appeared to be wedge shaped. The southerly belt is in about thelatitudeof the famous redspot which was first observed ahout 1878, and which persisted for several ye; The four mpr‘ colored belts are now very marked features of the planet’s disk, and will bo very interesting ob- jects of stuly.

Proctor was inclined to believe that the planet gave out lightof its own. Thedetails of its belts o from year to year, butthemeaning of the changes cannot be fathomed. If the various appea ances had been preserved in colors since the first observations with the telescope, it is possiblo thatsome periodicity might be noted. Astronomers should give (he planet very careful study during the coming opposition. It has been sus- pected that the changeson Jupiter bear some reation tosolar changes and solar conditions.

THE GIANTS DISBANDED, Last evening the Lincoln baseball club known as the Giants ceased to exist and the boys arenow willing to accepta jobat any- thing that will keep the wolf from the door, Outside of the professional baseball club at Omaba the Lincoln club was the best nine in thestate, and the boys were never beaten by any amateur dub in this portion of the coun- try., Every week saw a marked improve- ment in the players and they began to reach a degree of perfection that attracted tt e at- tention of professional clubs. All that the club lacked eficient management. The men who attempted to munage the nine neither understood the value of newspapers norknew how to treat newspaper men. No enterprise that depends upon public patronage forits existence can afford to snub news- papers or newspaper men, and s the man- agers of the Lincolu ¥ ball elub were ig- norant of this axiom, tailure has been the in- evitableresult, In addition to incompetenc; the members of the club charge the man ment with gobbling more than a fair propo tion of the gate reccipts.

About $200 will repair the damage done to house and turniture, Work on the Lincoln belt line is slowly progressing. Tle proposed line is now graded from West Lincoln to Thirteenth street. It is rumored that the North T.incoln rail- way company, which is mainly owned by Ouinha capitilists, is soon to be converted into an clectric railway system. Cha A Visitto the Venerable Prelate in His Study. The venerable Cardinal Manning has justcelebrated his omple- tion of the twenty-filth year of his arch- bishopric, and he has received the con- gratulations of a great throng of cele- brated persons of allveligi tions and phasesof political belief,writes a London correspondent of the N York Morning Journal, Few menin England are g0 popular as this aged cardinal, who will n-m-h his eighty-third year' on the 1ith of July. ” His activity, mental and physi cal; appears to bo as great now as when he was first installed archbishop of Westminster, His eminence is himself very telling the following anecd ote day of his consecration in Moorfi thedral he ove as he was passing through the building giving his fiest episcopal blessing, an old Irishwoman remark: “Make him an archbishop, in- Why, he hasonefootin the grave " fond of On the 1d ca- His graco tumned to the vicar generel, who was beside him, and remarked with work in me 3 Sincethatdaytw five eventful y ars have rolled by full n the ordinary sense ofop mu[ Al 1abor, but full also of polit- which will hand down to his- tory the name of Mauning, together with thoseof Pitt, O’Connell, Peel and ladstone, as the nume of one who hns one much to adorn the annals of his country.
