summary:
  Many groups of _Hyla_ in this area (for example, the _Hyla boans_ and _Hyla marmorata_ groups) are equally as arboreal in their habits as are the species of _Agalychnis_ in Central America. DISCUSSION Noble (1931) considered the species of _Phyllomedusa_ having opposable digits, reduced terminal discs, and no webbing to be advanced and such species as _Agalychnis moreleti_, _calcarifer_, and _spurrelli_ to be primitive.

  A Brief Account of the Destruction of the Indies Or, a faithful NARRATIVE OF THE Horrid and Unexampled Massacres, Butcheries, and all manner of Cruelties, that Hell and Malice could invent, committed by the Popish Spanish Party on the inhabitants of West-India, TOGETHER With the Devastations of several Kingdoms in America by Fire and Sword, for the space of Forty and Two Years, from the time of its first Discovery by them.

  he had subjugated as he could, that they might fight with their Country-men; and when he had in his Army Twenty, or sometimes Thirty Thousand of them, and could not afford them sustenance, he permitted them to feed on the Flesh of other _Indians_ taken Prisoners in War; and so kept a Shambles of Man's Flesh in his Army, suffered Children to be kill'd and roasted before his Face. It pleased God to send a Ship thither forthwith, to the greater confirming of the Governours Damnation, where in the Letters they sent to the Religious of _Hispaniola_, Letters containing repeated Exclamations and Protestations, and protest against such Actions, but those that received them denyed them Justice, for that they were partakers of that Prey, made of those _Indians_ so injustly and impiously captivated.

  Nevertheless they were disposed to cooperate with their northern neighbor in the peaceable adjustment of conflicts in which other Hispanic countries were concerned, provided that the mediation carried on by such a concert of the western world did not include actual intervention in the internal affairs of the countries involved. Carried away, also, by the enthusiasm of the moment, and forgetful of the utter unpreparedness of the country, the Congress promulgated a federal constitution modeled on that of the United States, which set forth all the approved doctrines of the rights of man.

summary:
  There are other smaller _plazas_ and subsidiary squares in the city, including those of San Francisco and Santo Domingo. The houses of Mexico are of a type unknown to the Anglo-Saxon American; the social customs, the aspects of the streets, the markets, the flower-market, the old, massive public buildings, the cotton-clad Indian folk in the _plazas_ side by side with beautifully dressed señoritas and correctly attired, grave and ceremonious men--statesmen, lawyers, doctors and men of many professions, the _serenatas_ or concerts in the _alamedas_, the lottery ticket vendors thrusting their flimsy wares into one's face, urging you to tempt fortune--for will not the wheel be turned in the public square in half an hour, and may you yourself not be the winner of the sorteo?--all these features catch the traveller's eye as in the genial sunshine, before the midday heat renders the shade of the _patio_ or veranda advisable, we observe the life of the Mexican city.

  In his southward journey Polo mentions many great cities in Manji, which it would be difficult to identify with their modern nomenclature. They eat also of dead animals, and practice in many other things like the Magians; and, in truth, the religion of the one and the other is much the same.

  The library maintained here, the books and journals accessible here, the useful and interesting publications of the bureau, the enormous correspondence carried on with seekers for knowledge about American countries, the opportunities now afforded for further growth in all these activities, justify the pains and the expense. From the White House, where President Roosevelt firmly maintains the traditions of great American names, there has come to us on a mission of peace an eminent and highly esteemed statesman, bringing us political ideas of a new mould and the frank diplomacy of modern democracies.
