A THE AMAZON AND ITS TRIBUTARIES, Im;ediments to Their Successful Steam Navigation. REMEDIAL MEASURES SUGGESTED, Criticism on the Works of Lieutenants Maury, Herndon and Gibbon. Highly Interesting to Commerce, &o., Some months ago the Brazilian steamer Marajo performed its first voyage between the city of Barra, ‘on the Rio Negro, and the town of Nauta, in the re- public of Peru. On bosrd of the steamer was an officer of the government, specially deputed to re por: on the various ci:cumstances of the voyage, and generally on the feasibility of maintaing a re gular steam communication between these two points on the Amazon avd its tributaries. This Officer was Count Rozwadowski, a scientific man, | & major on the engineer stuff, and—as may be in” of a ninth of one of the colonies provided for in | the pever sees yet it represents but one five hun- dredth pert of the whole coionization whicn the com- pany is bound to make. But these settlers would be | useful in more than one sense to to the ay, a8 the net work of their commercial avd 4g! taal operations would gradually extend over te who! region of the Sol , as far as the faterie: of Peru, £0 that looking at the trifling cost of the forty- four emall boats, the expense arising from the intro- duction of this system of supplying fuel pears entirely in contrast with its advantages, and even in view solely of the economy of time and expense which wouid follow the operation. The report goes on to show that the adoption of the plan proposed would obviate the necessity of building piers or wharfs, which are not pone now by the wants of commerce, since goods can be for years to come shipped or discharged without inconvenience in garates and tha yarious natural larding places. Each of the intermediary ts above bamed, with the exception of the bai » is adapted for for foreign coloniza:ion, and they should have post offices established in them as soon as the industry or the number of their inhabitants would entitle them to such encouragement. The company is recommended to award special favors to ‘the colonists who exhibit most enterprise and industry. These colonists, charged with the care of fuel for tne steamers at each of the twenty-two points named, besides the ents of a higher class already appointed in the city of Barra, Ega, and Loreto, epeld aoe he quite | sufficient to enable the company to dispense with apy supernumerary bands which it might have had to employ temporarily. The agents for the supply | ferred from his name—a Pole by birth. He pre- pared and presented to the President of the pro- vince a voluminous report, containing his observa- fiona and suggestions, extracts from which we find | published in the Correio Mercanti! of Rio Janeiro Asthe commerce of the city and country is deeply’ | interested in all that appertuius to the progress and | foture of the vast territory watered by the Amazon | and its tributaries, we present our readers with the | following translation of the most important and in- | teresting points of the report of the Count, for the | information of all having an iaterest in the subject: | It appears to me evider.t—says the Count in his | report— that steam navigation will not realize in the Solimoen and Amozon provinces the advantages | which it promises to attain, ualess the time con. | Bumed hy the present system of tuking in fuel be | Ocnside:ably shoitened, and so long as the | steome:s shall continue to asce'd and Jescend the river withont touching lacd for sixty leagues or! more, carrying, besides passengers, nothing but fuel for their own consumption. I consider my po- sition on the point to be much strengthened by the enlightened opinions of his Excellensy Francisco Gonzales Martens, in the interesting chapter on inter- nal navigation of his excellent report, presented to the General Legisiative Assembly ia the first session Of the ninth Legislature. In the preeent condition of affairs, it being impos. Bible for the company to procure at the different wharves people to attend to the putting wood on board with despatch, navigation jmay be at any time, and is always liable to be, interrupted for Want of fuel at one place or other, as, for instauce, Occurred tous at Quary, and as may often occur, particularly when the inhabitants of the place may have been prevailed on, as is the case at certain sea- Bons of the year on the Solimoen, to engage in fishe- ries, mining, &c., and there will occur more than One unforseen case, where in small and unpopulous places, such as the stations on this line are at pre- gent, the service of the steamer will be paralyzed. If fuel is required there will be a want of people to supply it and put it on board; and as according to the present system it wili have to be carried by men bundle by bundle, it will be for years @ difficult thing to collect at any moment sufficient number of hands for the purpese; so that if the crew of the vessel object to Bubject themselves to this service—a very likely thing in view of the casy discipline enforced on board merchant ships—that single circumstance will be suffi:ient to retard the voyages and to make @ correct account of the arrivals and departures at the eeveral points sbolutely impossible. Tt will be obvious, however, that a prudent com- pany, aware that for wast of sufficient holp at the wharves the navigation of the steamers will be ex- posed to such inconveniences, may provide for this contingency by estab'ishiog at the several stutioos on tae lise workmen in its employment, and their families, whom it will be easy to collect from among the thousands of colorist: settled io the sixty colo- nies which it isto establish, as according to the Mth section of decree No. 1,037 of the 30th August, 1852, each colony must occupy a portion of ground necessary for the support of 3,000 persons. The Cist~bution of these employés I will allude to hereafter, merely remarking here that it appears to me that she custem of not paying the Indians personally by the agents or offi- cers of the company for the wood whish they svpply, is wrong, and ought to be altered. it ‘s evident that itis not the Indians who receive the price of the wooi, bat some cunning white man who goes abroad for the purpose, and who pays the Incians only a smal! portion of their earn- ings; acd if this system is allowed to go on, the Indians will become Giscoatented and careleas of working in the future. The sup ly of fuel in the voyage of the Marajo was entirely owing to the | workmen, aud should be subject to the inspection and | company seeks to establish in these regions. The | | cempany should be careful to appoint to tnis first | with whi h the mos diversified and precious gifta of | nature are scattered over this soil, and the incalcu- | lable resources of eubsistence, prosperity and | lird of the Creator, are still waiting for man to cul- of fuel might be included in the claws of simple | control of the principal agents in Barra, Ega, and | Loreto. These latter should be charged with the interests of navigation, and of the trade whivh the | class of agents men skilled ia mechanical and agri- cultural pursuits, rather than persons merely versed in commercial watters. Under the Lead of “Colonies of Foreigners and Tor ivns,” the report goes on to say:— The went of population so notorions in all parts of te my e, is nowhere so sensibly felt as in the regions of the Amazon. Lookiag at the prodigality wealth lying here, and contioualiy reproducing themselves without any use being made of them fr the geceral good of men, it is melancholy to reflect that millions of onr fellow beings in distant lands spend their life struggling in the sweat of their brow against the most abject penury, wresting feom an unfruiiful soil by force of continuous and arduous labor, a miserable subsistence, whivh in prolonging their life prolongs only their privations and hardships, Bat | | sha] not repeat here what has been said in this respect after special stadies and explorations b: wise, enlightened ard eloquent men. Nor would it | be right fcr me to join my feeble voice to accents so powerful, since the imperial government for years ast has shown its attention to this subject in the ely regulations and ordinances, which bear honor- able testimony to the patriotic seatiments and en+ lightencd understanding of the statesmen from | whom taey emanated. Consequently it may be con- sidered a8 an undeniable truth that the general good of humanity, and the more immediate inter- ests of the Brazilian empire, will be promoted by peopling those provinces which, as the primitive tivate them. ‘Thst which as the result of the exploration of these regions, was stated in former tincs inthe works of Humboldt, Condamine, Spix, Martius, Natterer, Prince Maximilian, aud de Casteloun, and that | which is told us in the writiugs of Barina, of Lieu- tenant Amazon, and of Messrs. Maury, Herndon and | Gibbon, and recently confirmed by the report of | Major Salles, proves that the importance of the | Amazoniun regions,whether in resp: ct to the wealth | arising !rom the products of commerce and indus- try, or ina political and Beraleical point of view, deserves and requires no: only that the effortsof tre | goverLment in respect to colonization, be directed to | these parts, but that they be directed with energy and without delay, and in preference to apy other portion of the Brszilian territory. Jn the work of Lieutenant Amazon, it is concla- sively proved that prior to the disorder of 1 the condition of the territory was better thav itis at | Fresevt; but avoiding any comparison with the past, which, were it a hundred times greater than it was, could not serve asa criterion for the future, I shall briefly refer to the present conditions of the | regions of the Sol:moen, £0 a8 to show what,urgent necessity ¢xisis to provide with all energy for its colonization, and for the establishment of the Indian tribes in villages. ‘The report goes on to quote some passages from the message of the President of the Araazons to the Legislative Assembly of last year, in reference to the state of public worship, the instruction and civi- lization of the natives, and the condition of agri- culture, industry, navigation and commerce, and to show that up to that time there had not been in the Solimoen region, and hardly in the whole province of the Amazon, any attempt at foreiza colonization, and that all the wisdom of the laws and regulations hitherto promulgated in respect to edacation, have been inefficacious. Altiough, the report contioues, t is quite easy to comprehend the great advantages which would result to the priviliged steam naviga- ticn company, if the banks of the river emb:aced sixty colunies,each numbering three thousand in- bebitants, yet the expense of transporting aud estab ishing 180,000 men entirely exceeds the means ef the company; still we shall coubtiess soon see the company creating some industrial establish: ments, which will be more advantageous in the pre- sent conditicn of the lands, and bringing workien | from arope for these particular purposes, to col- lect quietly s portion of the immense resources and wealtn contained in these lands, but ite colonizing task will be probably limited to this. Of the colonization for the benefit of the niation, the government only can take the int- tiative by guaraateeing to the colonists tie same privileges, the same advantages, the seme righta, | apd making the same pecuniary sacrifices ss have been guaranteed anc made by the government of a neighboring State, and which no company aver can | or will make. The report sugges's toat the plan | the Datch government in coltvaizing immediate orders of the goveroment of the pro vince ; but hereafter that duty will necessarily | Gevolve 01 be desirable to conciliate the good will of the In dians to induce them to assist the nav steamers by supplying fuel, by helping to ship or isc) arge cargoes, and in Whatever other way they can render themselves uveful. could contirue as in the fi st voyag: no cargo beiog rut on board—the to carry the fuel necessary fer its coosumption, and !f it were nut (he intention of the government to make the eccupasts of the lands participate aa mach as possible inthe benetits of steam naviga- tion, and of the prosperity which it will scatter through the whole littoral of the Sclimoen, it wonld not be necessa;y to add tothe number of stations at which we touched at it would be absurd to in which— vessel hed oaly thirk that t steamers should carry notiing but fuel. On the contrary, every qch enterprise will endeavor to” reserve hs much space as possible for the carrying of pas- bengers and cargoes, and will avail itself of every neans to dimia'sh the space occupied by fuel, and shorten t' ¢ time necessary for takir g it on toard. view of this difficulty, it is recommended to have oats ‘aden with wood sestioned at certain points on the line, which the steamer conid take in tow. | Yhis srrangement would eave time, aud allow space | on board the steamer for passengers, cargo and | mails, It should therefore be established as an im- mutable principle, that there should be a direct line | between two points estimated at from twelve to | twenty ours dis'avce, » delays of not more than five minutes at the intermediary points,and geverally net more than six hours’ delay at thse points where | pasecngers, mails and carg» are to be received. | As to the civilizing ioflaer ce on the conutry and the beneficial influen ¢ ogjts inhabitants of having the } Steamers, in place of stations, make but brief delays, however frequent, it is needless to exwnd my remarks, for the im- portance of faci.itating avd accelerating commerce and the means of transportation for cargoes and Aindividaals appears evient, in whatever conn- iry, and more particularly #0 in a grow'n province like that of the Amazon, wi ‘@ population devoid of industrial resources, scat- dered, and spread over a vast extent of country. The points recommended as intermediary stations, where stoppages are to be limited to five minutes, fre the following:— Between the city of Barra and the mouth of the ~ Quary, two—viz:—Mar acaparn and Cadajas. 2 1 2 one—in the barrier Ber tae Quel ‘adi, and in that of the Camadu.....

It is, therefore, of } the highest importance that agriculture should be en, | couraged. Providence, ho vever, mseis the exifen:y | (the land turtle,) by the creation of a reptile peculiar to these regions which could supply the want of meat for 8 population a hundr-d told larger tian it is; bat the band of man dissipates the precious gift by the conversion of it into the oil kaown as tar- taruga butter, of which one jar, worth $8 at Para, | absorbs on an ay re 5,000 eggs, and, (estimating a tartarnga at cigbt pounds weight,) 4,009 pounds | of flesh, sufficient for the daily sustenance of 40,000 | perrons. A re | To throw all possible light on this interesting | question, L subjoin a list of the districts of the Solty meen, and of the average vumber of pots of tar: tarbga »ynually fabricated in them:— aldeirano, pots 300 Palheta, pots. 50 | Cepray, i 1,000 Ximuny, Mts 300 funbotubs, “ ...1,800 Catua, a 300 | Coragutuba, “ 150 Ipechuna, “ .... 200 Jovia 200 Camara, 34 Acapuri, * 160 Coro, Nid Arecatube, =“ .. 1,000 ‘Lctal pots. ... ms worth some $65,000. The report urges the advisability of preyontiag the exportation of tartarnga, and limitiog its pro. duction to the supply of the imme iiate wants of tue inbabitants, I+ a)so recommends toe establish: at of priests to educate the people; there being only two ecclesiastics in the whole extent of ccnotry from Berra to Loreto--one ia Fga and one in San Paulo of Olivenca—and missions to be sent anne Ore latter they shoule be treated as the negroes e by the company of the French government in Cay- cone, in 1548—tkat is, to have their names regis- tered in a book, with their cccupations and their means of earning @ livelihood, and to have the vaga- bond and idle of them seat to public works, Resoming the consideration of the difficulty in the way of the enterprize of 1 avigating these waters by steam, snd of the means of remed;ing them, the report goes on to eay:—Bat it is not so much the want of bands for the execution of any work requiring manual labor, as the desert state in which the lands of the provice Jie, tuat prevents the ful) suecessjof the undertsking and tie realization of the promised ad- vantages. It is, moreuver, because in a population 80 scattered there cacnot be obtained a sufficient number of skilful men to promote the branches of incustry beet suited to the circumstances of the soil and most likely to pe advantageous, such as agri- tpg: and because there are in these regions no car- yeers, lapidaries, smit: s,and other trades most indispeneable in human society. Besides this ob stacle to success, which the company, in view of its own interests, could pot fail to overcome, there are other impedimemw to be removed, such as the want of silver coin to mske regular payments, ioatead of payments in kind to the ‘odians. Other minor mat- ters of detuil necessary for ihe waccessfal carrying out of the ent are poimied out, such as the sppoin'ment of fixed days and hours for touching at the — on the line, the publi-stion of a pros: | pectur, &c. | through Arica and Cobija, Callao, Truxillo, Gu | ber of the directory, to suggest from | tions and des:ree, for passen, sought to be established considerably pavy are rebneins too high, \d the \ the ocher hond, if tne fares were bs 1y—particular]; n the rivers and lakes of the United States. It also disects attention to the inconveniences which will be probably experienced from side-paddle steamers in times of flocd, when the river will be covered wito floating masses of timber, and reccmmends screw propellers to be sul . Under the head of “ Physical Coxstitution of the Margins of the Solimoen” the report says:—The is of the river which are present to the e: of the traveller as high barriers of arg:llscious for- wation, in which yellow and violet colored ochre redomivate, indicate the diluvial formation of these ds; the low land, islands and shores are alluvial land, more or less modern. Beds like those of coal, which appear fiom Tabstinga up, may really turn ont to be authracite coal, and should be scientifi- cally examined. The report goes on to treat of the vast patural wealth of these lands; but as the writer evidently draws very largely on Lieut. Maury’s book on “The Amazon and the Atlantic Slopes of South Ameria,” snd quotes it as authority, it is unnecessary to follow him. He says, however, that he dees rot entirely endorse various exaggerations and diatribes of Yankee eloquence contained in that werk; such, for instance, as the relation of the diamo.d pavements of Cuyuba, the vegetable cow, and the four yards of cottons, worth 26 centa in the Unitea States, being exchanged for $50 worth of earsaparilia. I have had time—he says—to be pre- sent at the markets in Marannow and to become acquainted with the business, and I can state posi- tively that such ba: gains would not fail to be con- sidered fraudulent; avd it ill becomes Mr. Maury, who declaims so loudly in favor of humanity, civili- zation and Christianity, to recommend such traffic to bis pious countrymen. It would be outside of my province to refer to other statements in that work; but seeing that Mr. Muury refers to the voyage of Messrs. Herndon avd Gibbon as having been executed clandestiaely by virtue of a commistion, also secret, so as to escape ur known perils or persecutions, alike enigmatical, I cannot avoid etating that these assertions must appear very strange to me who have had the oppor- tunity of knowing some particular facts of the voyage of these gentlemen, which go to prove that, perfectly congnizaut of the object of the exploring expedition, which could neither be kept secret from the government nor individuals, the local authori- ties extended to them all hospitality, aid and suc- cor. I might mention the reception which Mr. Herndon received publicly in every part of Soli- moen, and even for months in the city of Barra, in the house of Mr. Hearique Antony, and the assist- ance of an escort from tour fortresses, which accom: papied Mr. Herndon in the descent of the Madeira, through the province of Matto Grosso. The import and export trade cf the Solimoen, which may be estimated at $400,000 per year, is a8 yet but a small thing to promise this line the reali- zation of a rapid developement. That importance, however, will be considecably au; nted as soon as the project Pro xed by Humboldt and others is carried out, of giving to the Amazon its natural destiny—tbat of scrving as a highway of commu- nication and supply tothe territories bathed by iteelf and its affiluents. The advantage and the in- crease of developement of the province appear ua- deniable, if the steamers could calculate on the an- nual trap+port of $30,000,000. Such would be the approximate value of the importations and exporta- tions of the iaterior of New Granada and Ecuador to where the remificatious of the Solimoen and Ama- zon wight be extended by means of the rivers Ick aud Napo, of those of Peru by the Solimoen and Maranon, and cf Bolivia by the Madeira. I cannot give an opirion as to the difficulties of these communications, but they should be explored by engineers. These steamers would participate in the trade of Bolivia and Ecuador, New Granada and Vexezuela, which now passes into the Atlantic and the Antillean sea by way of the Magdalena and Oro- nocc—all the import trade which now comes com used oF quil, and the other parts of the Pacific, crossing the Andes. The following is given as a statement of the trade of the four above-named republics, according to Count Casletnan:— Exports. Imports. Peru.. 9,741,733 10,000,000 FEenad + 676,935 1,063,502 Bolivia. .3,000°000 2,426,795 New Granaéa. 150,000 5,700,000 +$13,468,668 19,190,297 this immense trade the writer proceeds to show that energeti: means must be adopted to banish the languor and corpididy which have exist- ed in these regicns since the first European settle- ment of them. He saye, when Venice, ia conse- quence of the blockade, was depopulsted, and when 4s commerce aud industry were reduced to the low- est ebb, the Austrian government did not hesiiate on being convinced of the state of decadence into which thet ay and interesting city of 120,000 in- habitants threatened to fall, to declare it free from all and every import tax, kaowing that such & measure would infallably occasion an cxtiaor- divary affluence of commerce and industry. Sacha weasure I propose, as one which ought vo be rescrted to in the Amazons, confident that it would be the most convenient and effivacious in ths present concition of aifairs, and believing that the Outies cf exportation on all the merchandise leaving the Brazilian limits would pffurd a rich compensa- ticn. The withdrawal of all dutics on importations is the great point recommended in this branch of the report; but there aze other micor aud collateral measures also to be followed. Ist. Poe organization of a méthodical scientific ¢xploration of tue industry and commerce of the tributaries of the Solimoen an? Amazon. 2d.

Such, concludes the writer, are the measures which, in myopirion, would serve to eutirely traas- form, in the course of ten yeara, the present state of affaize in the province, Tconclude by expressing the hope that some of mj observations may be judged useful, and that they will be considered by the government a3 the expres: jen of the profound ecnviction that [ entertais that he priccipal elements of the power, grandeur ani prosperity of Brazil exist inthe valley of the Ama- zon, and in the realization of the destiny for waich Providence created that mighty river.
