The prin- apal paper of Mintater Foster is addressed to Mr. Carlile Mason, Presitent of the Manufac- turers’ Assoctation, Chicago, L., tuder datoof Oct. 9, 1878, The principal parts of this answer, 10 far as they relate to the commerce of Mexi- o, may be thus summarized: Mr, Foster went to Mexico with the same ex- slted fideaa of the dovelopment of commerce between the two countrics which Mr. Zamacona now hae, nbd still thinks the extension of com- mercial relations the most potent and Lenefl- ceat method of preserving peace on the always- disturbed border, but Minister Foster, unlike Zamacona, as time clapsed, has beon constantly learning of obstacles to the extension of that commeree.
