COMMERCE In establishing a column such as the present in our paper, we are perhaps departing from the strict lines of a literary and artistic publication, but we feel nevertheless sure, that in doing so we shall merit the approval of our readers. In opening this column we have borne in mind the perseverance and industry which are such marked characteristics of the American nations—qualities which partly explain the support given us by foreign conntries in our economical relations with them, in spite of crises into which it is not our province now to enter. The space we are enabled to devote to this subject is small, the more so as we have decided to publish this section in four lenguages.
