He is in affluent circum stances, having married a wealthy Mexican heiress, and is extremely desirous of introducing the many advanced improvements of his native country into the one of his adoption. Perhaps no country possesses greater facilities for steam navigation than the noble lakes, rivers and streams of the beautiful province of Tobasco. They flow through a most fertile and paradisaical region, and will now be a source of lu- erative commerce to a number of Mr. Brown’s spirited countrymen. We heartily wish him suc- cese, and congratulate him onthe rare means which he possesses of introducing the arts of civilization into one of the most neglected, but lovely and de- lightfal portions of the world.
