I transmit herewith a report of the Secretary of State and accompanying

Peru and Chile.
CHESTER A. ARTHUR.
EXECUTIVE MANSION, _January 27, 1882_.
_To the Senate of the United States:_
I transmit herewith, in further response to the Senate resolution of the
13th December, 1881, a report of the Secretary of State, embodying the
purport of a recent telegram from the special envoy of the United States
setting forth the conditions of peace presented by Chile.
CHESTER A. ARTHUR.
[A similar message was sent to the House of Representatives, in answer
to a resolution of that body of January 24, 1882.]
EXECUTIVE MANSION, _January 28, 1882_.
_To the Senate of the United States:_
In further answer to the resolution of the Senate of December 12, 1881,
I herewith transmit the remainder of the correspondence touching the
desired modification of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty. The dispatch of the
Secretary of State of November 29, 1881, was not sent to the Senate with
the former dispatches, because at that time no advice had been received
that its contents had been communicated to the British Government.

compliance with the resolution of the House of Representatives passed
on the 26th of January, 1882, estimates of the amounts which will be
required annually to pay pensions for the next twenty-five years, based
on the presumed conditions stated in the resolution.

Arizona, and in connection therewith call attention to that portion of
my message of the 6th of December last in which suggestions were made
as to legislation which seems to be required to enable the General
Government to assist the local authorities of the Territory in restoring
and maintaining order.
