Under tfe mild and just government of Presideat Mon- teleagre this little republic continues steadily to improve. The signs of an enlightened progress are everywhere visible. In the direction of the San Carlos, over the Northern Cordilieras, the primeval forest is being felled, and acres upon acres of land, which it required the moet arduous labor to clear, are being planted with sugar cane or sown with corn. So, too, in the opposite direction, in tbe vallies of the Candelaria, the axe of the woodsman day after day resounds, and the plough, aud the spade and the boe are quickly reducing to cultivated fraitful- nees wastes which up to this time have been the un- disturbed domain of reptiles and wild beasts, An in- crease of population by some few thousands tg all that is wanted to convert this beautdul and luxuriant couatry into one of the happiest, healthiest and wealthiest on the face of the earth. Nor is it in the fields and forests only that these evidences of progress and improvement disclose themeelves. In the Lowns there is a new spirit astir,und the men charged witb their administration are exerting all their power to introduce the best reforms. an hour's ride from here, at the foot of the volcano of Barba, stands the town, or p= ted Heredia, one of the best built, cleavest and richest in Costa Rica. The solid square towers of the parochial church, white and glistening in the sun ali day long, arrest the eye at every point from which it may look towards Barba, ‘They are commanding features in the grand panorama of the valley of 3an Jose.

But the government 18 wide awake, ani perfectly prepared to meet and instantly put down any and every attempt disturd the public peace. Ketween the President, his Ministers, the officers m cominaad of the troops, and both: houses of Congress, there is a cordial, good uagerstand- ing and a sworn devotion.

Our Minister here, the Hdb.

Mr. Dimitry ts all the more deter- mi! to do ths, since the good will of the government towards American enterprises, and the expressed desire Of the government tw cultivate the test relations with the United States, has been taken advantage of by the few pitiful gramblers, whom Jann Rafael sfora \ after him to disturb. the country he coald po longer gag and rob. “The country is sold,” these fellows whisper wo you in the Deer shops and at the corners of streets, “the cuantry is sola to the Americans—sold to the Glibusters " And this is said over and over again, to rekindle prejodices which have been fast dying ont, and in the ashes of which healthier and jurter senti ments were tat ing root, But the shrewd idteiligenee of the country !s not to be misied by such mischievons aud #piteful cnnoing and, as in the case of the recent grant to Mr. Thompeon, for tne railroad between the Bocas de} ‘Toro and the Guif of Hulse, the public mind wili come to conclusions respecting great public measares, and pro: pounce upon them without prejudice, being guided in their consideration of them solely by the merits the porsese aud auvantages i promise to the country, It ie right that this should be known in the United States, fe a troublesome parties here bare taken pains to prevent a different state of thinws, with the view bo doabs to alievate the people of the United States from the jwo- ple and government of Cesta Riew.
