South Amer ican ports which hate not been visited recently by American warships, and especially by the muet formidable ves sels of the new navy, are to be afforded an opportunity of teeing at least two of the ships that did to much to defeat Cervera's cquadron and crush Spain's power In Cuba waters. Now that a favorable chance It offered In the de parture of the battle ship Oregon and Iowa, the colliers and the distilling and refrigerating ships, under Captain Barker, for Manila, by way of Honolulu, the Navy Department has decided that a wholesome lesson may be taught Spanish sympathizers In South American repub lics by the visits of these ships to several of the chlof seaports. In accordance with Instructions Issued by Secretary Long before his departure for the North, Captain Barker is ordered to take his ships Into nearly all the lead ing ports while making the long trip to the West. Unless, therefore, the plans should be changed, or the orders coun termanded at the first Stopping place en- route, the squadron will make port at Bahia, Para aud Rio, if the yellow fever does not prevail to an alarming extent, and possibly at Montevideo. It is the purpose of the department especially that the Chilians and Argentinians shall see some of the groat lighters that so easily drove Cevera's vessels to destruction and the power and strength of the two most formidable vessels of the American service.
