The Swiss republic has decided to
establish legation at Washington.
The measure has been in contempla:
ton for many years, but from time
to time postponed, through consider
alton of economy. Hitherto Swift
zerland has maintained legations
only at the capitals Of the coun'
tries bordering its territory, France,
Germany, Austria and Italy. In
consequence Of the large number OF
Swiss who have become residents OF
the United States, and of the con.
siderable amount of trade between
the two countries, legation here is
doubtless of more Importance tC
Swiss interests than in any other
country with the exception of those
