An anonymous criticism of "The circular which the minister of foreign affairs of Chile addressed to the diplomatic agents of the republic abroad," (n. p., 1881) concerning the Pacific War and issued by the Chilean Ministerio de relaciones exteriores. "The latest illustration of this larcenous diabolism is furnished by the Chileans in their account of the antecedents, origin, and progress of the ruthless war now waged by them, with the assistance of a confederacy of powerful and unscrupulous English merchants against the States of Bolivia and Peru. To anyone familiar with the real facts of this internecine struggle, the effrontery of Balmaceda in appending his name to the tissue of fabrications, now become notorious under the name of the Chilean Circular to Foreign Governments, seems sublime."
