The seventh is worthy of notice However, the third and fifth I consider to have given the best rendering; and I should maintain that it was only a matter of taste that secured the modal for tbo third. Other adjudicators would bavo awarded it to the fifth, as being more natural and at tho same lime entering into tho sp rit of tho subject. Auditor. Jan. 21, 1892. War With Chile.
