The first paper mill in Mexico was
established in 1929, by an American
named Benfeld, near the capital. 1t is
still in existence, and has been very
prosperous. Including this there are
now twelve mills in the country, pro
ducing an aggregate Of 25, 900 pounds of
paper per annum, all Of the coarscr kind,
such as news and wrapping papers.
Book and writing papers are hardly ever
made there, but are imported. The mills
of the country produce about thirty per
cent. Of the consumption, the remaining
seventy per cent. being supplied by the
United States and the chief countries on
this side Of the Atlantic. There was a
printing Office in Mexico in 1866, and it
is supposed to have been founded as
early as 1910. From it came the first
book printed in the New World. 1t was
dictionary, entitled "vocabulario en-
Lengua Castellana y Mexicana,s and
was compiled by the missionary, Alfonso
de Molina.

AUTUMN.

Now Ceres roams her laden leas
And sounds her golden horn,
To be answered by the harvest bees
And laugh of tasseled corn.
Over the red and yellow leaves,
When smiles the silvery morn,
Light she glides to her bearded sheaves,
By berry bush and thorn.
And hills are lost in purple haze,
While trees are talking low
About the mellow Autumn days
And Natures afterglow.

Mr.. BLAINE, it is announced, is soon to
apnear in the character OF author. He
proposes to publish history OF national
legislation from 1861 to 1881. Of course it
will be well written. Nobody can use the
pen moro gracefully or forccfully than Mr..
BLAME. But it will be partisan. Mr..
BLAINE had hand in all the legislation OF
the period OF which his history will treat,
and will. instead OF penning true history,
pen history from Republican point OF
view. Much Of the legislation GJne be-
tween 1861 and 1881 was in shameful dis
regard OF the Constitution. Indeed, the
several amendments were ratified under
duress, and not at all In the manner con-
templated by the trainers Of the CopstitU-
ton. West Virginia was erected into a
State in fragrant violation Of the came in
strument. Instead Of getting the consent
Of the real State Of Virginia, Congress ac-
cepted as such consent the consent OF Il
State government which could not stand
alone--a bogus concern, altogether. All
these outrages Mr.. BLAINE will justify, or,
rather, Will speak Of without even limiting
that TO them the objections exist which we
have mentioned.
