CoMxERcEo THE REPUBLIC OF Esp The French
Minister Of Commerce has just addressed crcu lar to
sone Of terhar,bers OF tonmerct, containing nforma
ton as to the French products and manufactures mos;
demand at Guayaquil The minister says: sin the
kes of the ECUADOR in the other markets of South
America, English, Swiss and Rhenish manufactures in
linen and cotton, have had too frequently preference
over us. Our silks, which have much success of Val
paraiso and Lima are less in demand at GuayaquiI, on
account of the poverty OF the country and foreign
petition, which is formidable for the inferior qualities
Our broadcoths, the superiority and neness OF which
begin to be acknowledged by the inhabitants gain ground
but as yet purchased only by the rich. In mixed
stufs, of WOOL thread, and cotton, designs of which
produced every day, preserve marked advantage
over our rivals AS to cutlery and hardware, England
supplies the first almost exclusively and shares the sup
ply of the second with Germany and the United States
but have still the supply of articles of luxury We
have little competition to dread in fine mercery and Paris
articles the consumption of which increases daily In
the supply of paper, Genoa and Spain have almost mo-
nopolized the trade regards the sorts. In the
fine qualities we compete with some advantage with
Italy and England Our printed papers maintain the first
rank In the book trade, regards French and Spanish
works, we have to fear the competition of Spain and
even America Our preserved food and fruits maintain
their superiority, notwithstanding their high price This
is the case with our oils and onr wines. French liquors
esteemed beyond all others at Guayaquil. Cognac
brandy is initiated such extent by brandy made from
sugar, that ii is difficult to compete with the a1utera
ton."-N. Y. Herald, March Is.

that men of good genius and education, good character

Congress, that suggest the propnety of finding sig
nfcant word by which IT may be denoted. Monomania
not the word, but monaenid is the very one; for it
marks such a solitary weakness as may be found in a
