The government is a republic, with a national Congress composed of two houses elected by the people. The President is chosen by delegates, elected by ballot, from the several provinces. Owing to its situation, the country has many varieties of climate, from the intense heat of the tropical region in the north to the perpetual winter of Cape Horn. A large area is unproduc- tive ; but in the central districts, where the agri- culture of Chile is mainly carried on, the soU is fertile, and yields a...bundant crops. The southern Digitized by Google URUGUAY l8l districts are thinly inhabited and covered with for- ests. Among the agrioTiltural products are wheat, which is an important crop, and fruits of various kinds. The grape is largely grown, the annual yield of wine being nearly 25 million gallons. The grapes and figs of Coquimbo are highly esteemed. There is a busy export trade in wheat. The mineralfl include gold, silver, copper, and coal, and these are considerably worked. The deposits of copper are believed to be almost inex- haustible.
