George H. Williamson to Hamilton Fish, August 25, 1875
No. 116. Mr. Williamson to Mr. Fish.
United States Legation in Central America, Guatemala, August 25, 1875. (Received Sept. 18.)
No. 417.]
Sir: I have the honor to hand you herewith a printed copy and translation of a report of the minister of public instruction of Guatemala, respecting the re-organization of the university in this city. If is dated the 1st of July, but was only published, together with the decree therein recommended, in the official paper of the 20th instant.
The decree changes entirely the organization of the university as recommended by the minister, and prescribes such courses of study as are usual now in the best institutions of learning. It does not appear of sufficient importance to send to you. The organization is said to be modeled upon the French plan.

GEO. WILLIAMSON.
