There is nothing new in them.
The feeling in Peru against European inter-

that of the Mexicans, all of whose political re-
vulsions and present difficulties, even, he attr-
butes to the absurd manner in which their men
in office managed things, or rather mismanged
them.
Agriculture is progressing in Guatemala, and
efforts are making to encourage further advances
