for the purpose Of establishing intercourse in

proposed in this collection to give a prominent

sition than any other organ in Europe to serve as
an intellectual link between the Old and the New

most eminent political, scientific and literary men
OF France. Many 81 IL contributors have visited
North and South America, and it still counts among
them many of the Diplomatic and Consular Corps.
