Central America.

The unilication of the Central American
states into federation with a jurisdiction
somewhat similar to that of this country,
would not be considered such a Quixotic
idea were not the methods adopted in order
to compass that end SO strangely originated.
President Barios Of Guatemala the most
considerable of those states, conceived the
idea of Central American Republic. It is
not necessary TO add that the project bore
the name of General Barrios as the new
dictator. He had already gained the conni-
vance of the state of Honduras. With its
help is to coerce the smaller states of Nicar
aqua, San Salvador, and Costa Rica and
thus establish the new state. But the
smaller states prefer independence and re-
fuse to be coerced.
They have received the moral support OF
Mexico, which has notified Barros that his
measures Of coercion will be opposed by
that country, and that any interference
with the Independence of Costa Rca, San
Salvador or Nicaragua or any meddling with
the territory Of those obscure and weaklirg
republics will be resented by Mexico.
We may take hint, from this pronuncia-
mento of Mexico, ourselves. A Unit d
States squadron of half dozen vessels has
been ordered to cruze around Central
American waters, for the protection OF
| American interests whatever they may be in
that locality Secretary Bayard has tele
graphed to The United States Consul at
Guatemala to notify the Guatemalean Gov
ernment that the United States would hold
it responsible for injuries, by its authority
! or with its connivance, to United States in
teresUs in Central America. 1t is quite
| probable that Mexico remembering the
demoGstrative action suggested by an inilu-
ental section of the press of this country in
reference to Nicaragua and Costa Rican ter
ritory contiguous TO the trans-sthman
routes, will watch with some interest the
presence of SO many foreign men-or-war in
her sister-republic's immediate neighbor.

ESPECIALLY FOE THE LADIES.
Ammonia.

Ammonia is cheaper than soap, and
cleans everything it touches. A few drops
in kettle that is hard to clean make grease
and st:ckiness fade away, and robs the work
of all its terrors. Let it stand ten minutes
before attempting to scrape off, and every
corner will be clean 1t cleans the sink, and
and penetrates into the drain-pipe. Spots,
fipger-marks on paint disappear under its
magical influence, and it is equally effective
on floor and oil cloth, thought it must be
used with care on the latter or it will iDjure
the polish. There is nothing to equal it in
cleaning the silyerware. and it gives higher
polish and keeps clean longer than anything
else. II the silver be only slightly tarnished
put two table-spounfuls of ammonia into a
quart of hot water, brush the tarnished ar
ticles with it and dly with a chamois. If
badly dscolored, they may need little
whiting previous to the washing. Al old
nail brush goes into the cracks to polish and
brighten. For fine muslin or delicate lace it
is invaluable, as it cleans without rubbing
the finest fabrics. Put a few drops into youi
sponge bath in hot weather, and you will be
astonished at the result, as it imparts cool
ness to the skin. Use it to clean hair brushes
AID to wash any hair or feathers to be used
for beds or pillows. When employed in any
thing that is not especially soled use the
waste water afterward for the house plant.
