Again the blessings Of health and an abun-
dant harvest claim our profoundest gratitude
TO Almighty God
r. FoREIGE RELATIONS
The condition of our foreign affairs is reas-
onably satisfactory.
Mexico continues to be q theatre OF civil
war; While our political relations with that
country have undergone no change, we have
at the same time strictly maintained neu-
trality between the beligerants.
At the request of toe States of Costa Rica
and Nacaragua, competent engineer has
been authorized to make survey of the riy-
or San Juan, and the port of San Juan.
1t is a source of much satisfaction that the
difficulties which for moment excited some
political apprehensious, and caused clos
ing of the inter-oceanic transit route, have
been amicably adjusted, and that there is
good prospect that the route will soon be re-
opened with an increase of capacity and
sdaptation We conld not exaggerate either
the commercial or the political Importance
Of that great improvement
1t would be doing injustice to an impor-
tant South American State not to acknowl-
edge the directness, frankness, and cordiali-
sy with which the United States Of Colum-
bia have entered into intimate relations with
this Government. A claims Convention has
been constituted to complete the unfinished
work Of the one which closed its session IN
1861.
The new liberal constitution of Venezuela
having gone into effect, with the universal
acquiescence Of the people, the government
under it has been recognized, and diplomat
10 intercourse has been opened with 1t IN
cordial and friendly spirit.
The long deferred Arrests land claim has
been satisfactorily paid and discharged
Mutual payments have been made of the
claims awarded by the late joint commission
for the settlement of claims between the
United States and Peru.
An earnest and cordial friendship contin-
.nes to exist between the two countries. and
aucb efforts as were in my power have been
used to remove misunderstanding and avert
a threatening war between Peru and Spain.
Dor relations are of the most friendly nature
with Chill, the Argentine Republic, Bo-
Iivia, Costa Rica, Paraguay, San Salvador.
and Hayti.
During the past year no differences Of any
kind have arisen with any of these Repub
lies. and on the other hand their sYmpathies
with, the United States are constantly ex-
messed With cordiality and earnestness.
The claims arising from the seizure of the
carze of the brig Macedonia, in 1921, have
been paid in fun By the Governments of
Chill.
Civil war continues IN the Spanish part
of San Domingo, apparently without pros
pect Of an early close official correspon-
dance has been freely opened with Liberia.

NOW. AND THEN.
AIR The Kingdom Coming "

Time was we had happy nation,
And staunch Democracy
Our fame was wide throughout creation,
And proud young people, we;
But ,tings have chang'd-the comets risen
With different tale toItell,
And no man now is safe from prison
AT a touch of Stewards bell
Alas for liberty;
Alas for Uncle Sam
We've lived to see the Kingdom coming,
In the days of Abraham!
Time was we had our free discussion
With The press, the tongue, the pen
Nor had we learned TO ape the Russian
With his spies and Dungeons, then.
Bu, now, unless one sings the praises
OF :he LincoIc-Stanlon crew,
Some basliIe yawns as quick as bIazes,
Aud The poor souls lost 10 view
There's no more liberty
Our rights are all sham
Aud this must be the kingdom coming,
10 The daysof Abraham
in days gone Past-Ihose days more paimy
Than another iano e'er saw
Our statesmen needed not an army
la the place OF civil law;
Each man his ballot cssltunfearing:
And had thought 1t strange to find
A bIue-cost conscript guard appearing
With loaded gun behind
Is this your liberty
Poor sacr;6cis. lamb
Bow down and bless the kingdom coming
In tie Gays OF Abraham
We love the War, and all are burning
For the cause we hold so dear,
The conscri2t wheels are kept a turning
la the country Tar and near,
Our taxes and our debt are bigger
Than we are likely soon TO pay;
But Ab'ram wants to Tree the nigger
Aud we lei him have his way.
Our chance FOR liberty
ls hardly worth d-n
Bot there. niger kingdom coming,
Aud the king is Abraham
