AVorli ot Hon. li. XV. liiiniia ill A routine Kepuli'Id. The many friends of tho Hon. B. W. Hanna, who resides here, will be happy to learn that he has been achieving some brilliant successes in tho diplomatic line and he may now be said to have a fiout place among our best representatives abroad. Since Ms residence in Buenos Ayres he has rapidly iugrat ated himself into the favor of thoAigonline people and has secured from that country concessions that it would have been impossible lor one less popular to secure. It has for some years past been a matter of much regret to our people that so liltle intercourse has taken place between the countries. This lias been largely due to the fact, that there are large duties on all Argentine products coming to this country and hence little at It action for that people to trade with us. The great product of the Argentine Republic is wool, iu fact they divide the market of the world with Australia. Not enough wool is raised in tliia country to half supply our own market. They have what we want and we have what they need, that is, machinery of all kiuds. It looks like a fair exchange should take place between the countries but it does not. Mr. Hanna realized the situation aud began early in his diplomatic career to seek a remedy. He urged Mr. Cleveland to recommend in his message to Congress the putting of wool on the Tree 1'st and this was done. He then went to work on the Argentine people anil seemed from their country a subsidy of $100,000, that should be a nucleus around which a company should be organized for the establishment of a creditable line of steamers between the two countries, and the matter now awaits ou- co operation. The Argentine people are great admirers of our country they pattern their institutions after ours their customs aro uearly the same and Iht'y
