Yet Colombia is beginning to attract the attention of investors and others who, I venture to hope, may find it useful to have, in a convenient form hitherto not available in English, some general informatión regarding the conditions and prospects, the resources and government, of the State. My personal knowledge of the country is confined to more or less beaten tracks, and some of the principal cities, including the capital.
