CENTRAL AMERICA.
Accounts had been received from San Salvador and
Guatemala to the 23d February and ID ult San Sal
vador was perfectly quiet. On tho Sd February the
Legislature assembled and on the 9Th commenced their
sessions Don Dorotes Vasconcelos made quite
lengthy speech on the OCCASION in which he detailed
the condition in wh ch the country then and also
its relations with tho rest Of the Central American
States and foreign nations.
The State of San Salvador has always cndeavored,
and il still endeavorng to reestablish the confedera
ton which formerly existed between Guatemala
Costa Rica Honduras and Nicaragua; but up to the
two last named States disposed to enter into the
Union they only differed in secondary points, which
could easily DO arranged. 1t is not with Guatemala
kica. itself repub-
lie in March, 1916 under General Carrcra The ad-
mnistration which succeeded his, invited to re-
consider this withdrawal from the confederation, but
without success. Costa Rca likewise, has been in
dependent republic for some time past and has gone
prosperousy il is not therefore likely 1t will retrocede
into the confederation Nevertheless, the President ha,
always expressed willingness to enter into it whenever
he firmly established and Carrcra promised
the same when Guatemala made independent at
the time mentioned above. These Presidents argued
that 1t unfair to deprive their States Of all chance
Of progress by waiting for confederation, when they
could go much more prosperously on their own
responsibility, until such confederation made.
he President of Salvador states in his message,
however that excellent feeling exists between his
government and that of Costa Rica and that with Qua
tomaa, though they may not be such good terms,
they are far from being at cnmity.
As to their financial affairs in Salvador they are good,
evpcnses hNvo not only been paid, but con-
siderable Of the public debt has been also consolidated
Roads were being made and the ports put in better
der. Though more direct news than the above had
been received from Honduras, Nicaragua, and Costa
Rca IT is inferred they are in perfect quiet Guate-
mala, however, did not present such pleasing aspect
