The ne1lsan minister's Rsensl.

Senior ZamaoOna, the Mexican Min
lister, has presented his letter Of recall
TO the President, expressing his
wArmest thanks to the American peo-
pie and Government for the kindness
shown to him, and continuing says !:
ut has been my fortune that the pes
riod Of my stay In Washington at the
head of the Mexican Legation has
been coincident with great reciprocal
movement Of approximation between
our two republics. When landed in
this country as the Eovoy Of Mexico
the two banks of the Rio Grande shone
with the sinister glitter of arms, the
shallow fords OF that river then served
more for the passage Of smugglers, Of
banditti, and of savages than as a
route for International commerce. To-
day two railroads, opened to an I'm
creasing trade, CROSS our boundary
river, and the two peoples touch each
other across, not by the points Of their
bayonets but by firmly grasped hands.
Distrust and resentment haye disap-
peared, the commercial exchanges of
the two countries have been doubled; ;
the surplus capital of this rich people
is ovsrfiOwlng the frontier, and Mexico
gathers as the first fruits of her closer
intimacy with her northern neighbors
the internal peace she enjoys, tb 9
growing wisdom Of her citizens, a gem
eral feeling of welfare, which inspires
aversions to reyolts, the multipllcA-
tions N useful enterprises and the
brightness Of the national prospects. +"
President Arthur replying, said it
was the constantly, cherished purpose
of the people Of the United States ''to
omit no means of dispe.ling interna.
tional distrusts and placing the COM
mon relations of the two people on an
enduring basis Of friendship"

For some time past the covered gutter

dition. The s'ones that hold the plates
have become so worn that the plates
frequently drop out of the grooves.

driving bis dou Dle te am over the place
mentioned, the plates slipped and one
of his hor es was thrown violently to
the ground.
One of the plates fell upon the right
hind foot of the boise tUat fell, and II
was some time before the animal could
be extricatsd. When the amin i WIS
released 1T was found the hoof had been
badly cut, and the wound bled very pro-
fusely, and it WIS the general opinion OF
those who saw The foot that the horse
wOnld have to be Knocked In the head.
The owner of the animal contempt ,tes

terds that the city has no right to leave
