At the present time Mesico is in sound finan- cial condition, and aside from the gues- tlon of fluctuation ia its monetary standard everything seems to b e pro motive of further f*>sperlty. \The government by means of sub' sidles to railroads, by favorable tax legislation, by liberal expenditures for harbe-rj Improvement, and otherwise/, has Bone very much within late years to oncpurage the investmenj; of for- eiga capital and there seems every reason.to bolieve that tnls liberal pol- icy will be continued, \The recent fall in the price of sil- ver has of course boon very injurious to railroads and to many other enter- prises of which contracts were maflo for long periods.

Strolling along through a wind,swept tabfclanicountry, he came upon a Plant that rested^ow upon the ground, but had twoenornjions loaves Ibat blew and twisted about in the wind like serpents—in fact, it look- ed, as the inatlves had sola, like a gl gahttc spiderv Its stem was four feet across and but a foot high. It bad but two leaves In reality, that were stt or eight feet long and split up by the wind so that they resembled ribbons. This Is prob- ably the most extraordinary tree known.. It grows for nearly, if not quite, a century, but never upward be- yond about a foot, simply expanding until it reaches the diameter given, looking in its adult state like a singu- lar stool on the plain from ten to eight- een inches in circumference. When the wind came wsbingln from the sea, lifting the cnrlona ribbon-like leaves and tossing them about, it al- most seemed to the discoverer that the strange plant had suddenly become-in* bued vftth life and. iyaa. struggling to escape., When a description ana\ pic- ture of the plant were sent to England It was, like many other discoveries, oUs- credited, but soon the pliant Itself wan received, and now Welwltschia. mlra- bills Is* known to botanists.
