IMPORTANT FROM CHILL.

THREATENED DISRUPTION WITH SPAIN. SUSPENSION OF MARITIME TRAFFIC. (From the Southern Cross , FTov. O.J By the arrival last evening of the barque Orita, Captain Schroeder, from Valparaiso, we have intelligence of a painful nature, portending the outbreak of a fierce rebellion in Ohili, owing to a difference between the Spanish and Chilian Governments. The day before the sailing of the Orita, one of the Pacific Steam Navigation Company’s steamers, the Inca, arrived at Saint Jago, from Callao, bringing intelligence of the recall of the Spanish ambassador and the dispatch of six or seven iron-clad vessels to Chili. The Inca had been specially chartered by the Chilian ambassador in Peru in order to anticipate the usual mail service by two days. The cause of this sudden renewal of hostilities is attributed

to the recent unsatisfactory relations between the two Governments, and the desire of the Spanish Government to create a rebellion. The feeling in Chili was very strongly expressed against the Spanish residents there, which arose from the fact that they had signed and despatched a protest to Madrid against the action of their Minister, who had sought to reconcile the two Governments in a manner which they considered a disgrace to the Spanish Governments.

One of the Spanish frigates had arrived at Callairo, to the north of Valparaiso, and was coaling when the steamer put in there. It was expected that the ports would be blockaded, and coasting vessels had received orders to lay up or trade only in unfrequented waters. One of the Chilian steamers which had been advertised to make a trip to Fernandez was stopped, in consequence of the receipt of the news, and great anxiety was felt for the safety of the vessel, and fears of a disturbance were gravely entertained. Chilian men-of-war were preparing for any emergency, and the troops were being sent to various ports for better protection in the case of any attack. ~., r .. ; The popular opinion was that if the Chilian Government settled the disturbance -in compliance with the wash of the Spanish Government, a revolution would ensue.
