DR FRANCIA, THE DICTATOR Or^^ PAU:, The stern rule of this singular man in Paragttay maintained steadily during his life, constitutes one of I the most remarkable phenomena in the history,of the I South American states. His policy was to isolate his country from all the snrraunding countries, prohibiting intercourse, restricting commerce, establishing. in fact a sort of Spartan exciusiv.eness. S,rangers and tray. ellers coming into Parsg,uay were not allowed to out. The fr..intiers were protected by a series of fom tilled posts, well guarded; and Francis, sole ruler with , in his dominions, stood watchful, with jealous eye, to see that no disturbing influences frt.ra the distracted states then waging war around them, should be allots; ed to invade his little community. - .
