8 MOTICES OF NEW PUBLICATIONS. Beeks Hecetved During tho Week Baoding Apri 19. ‘The Spanish Conquest of America, by Arthur Helps. Esohyias, with Herman’s Emendations. Harper's Otaasical Library. Confession, a Domestic Story, by W. G. Simms. Cowdery's Moral Lessons. ‘Motley’s Rise of the Dutch Republic. Harper's Magazine for May. Ne ON CENTRAL AMERICA. r and Brothers, Although the present work is principally intended to demonstrate the advantages of Mr. Squier'’s pro ject of an inter-~oceanic railway through Honduras, it must not be supposed that its inquiries are limited to the ground proposed to be covered by it. On the Contrary, the author's well known habit of exhaust. ing @ subject bas led to embrace in the exami nation of this scheme all the collateral circum- stances which can in any way be supposed to bear opon it. Thus, whilst greater space is necessarily devoted to the two States, Honduras and San Sal- vader, which will more immediately feel its benefits, We find assembled together a vast body of facts con mected with the geography, togography, climate population and resources of Central America gene rally. These details have been obtained at the cost of great personal hardships and risk, for in but few existing works were sufficiently accurate data to be Found to fornish materials for such a work. Even the geographical features of this beautiful region were but very inaccurately known before Mr. Squiec’s visit. Humboldt could find no map, either native or foreign, which could at all be relied upon; and even in the maps published since he wrote, the most absurd errors are to be de- tected. Buailey’s map, prepared under the di- rection of General Morazan, President of the old federation of Central America, and which, up to the time of Mr. Squier’s researches, was general- ly oonsidered the most trustworthy, has been shown by that gentleman to be but very little more correct than its predecessors. In this chaos of geographicai as well as other facts, in which so important a section of our conti- nent was involved, the political mission which took there a man of Mr. Squier's inquiring and philo- sophical turn of mind was a godsend to Central America. To him it owes ina great degree the po- litical and commercial prospects which are now opening upon it. Whatever may be thought of the original motive and mauner of Walker's expedition, there can be no question that to the infusion of Anglo-Saxon energy and enterprise occasioned by it Central America will be indebted for its future greatness and prosperity. But for the information diffused through the labors of Mr. Squier, it is more than probable that that expedition would never have been attempted. Too little was previously known of Nicaragua to encourage the spirit of filibusterism to an enterprise with such doubtful results. It was the glowing picture presented by our author of the climate and resources of that beautiful Country which is unquestionably responsible for the important political movements in which the destinies of Centra! America are now involved. That they will turn out to its ultimate advantage we have not the slightest doubt, even though for the present @ey. may be attended with some inconvenience and goffering to a portion of its population. Chronic evils of long standing cannot be cured by palliatives aad we feel convinced that in this instance the poli- tical scheme propounded by Walker, be its personal motives what they may, is the only one that can be applied with benefit to the diseased and rotten frame- work of Central American institutions. The interest created by this experiment naturally renders our public eager for correct information re- garding the field in which it isto be tried. Mr. Souier’s work on Nicaragua and the Political History of Central America haa in part gratified this craving, and his “ Notes on Central America” complete all that it is essential for us to now for our future poli tical guidance. As, in the tirst place, the climate of shia fine region has been made the subject of a good dea! of controversy, so far as regards its effect on the health of foreigners. we think it useful to extract from the work before us what appears to be a care- fully studied analysis of its variations: — CLIMATE OF CENTRAL AMERICA. ‘The pecuciarities of Central America, in reapect of con- fAigu:ation of surface, will ex» sin she almos! endless va riety of climate to which I have alluded, and waizh ia no- where more rsmazkable thaa in thst country.

These obser- vations were confined t2 the {sthmus which lies between Lake Nicaragua apd the Pacilic, at a point where the trade winds, sweeping through the valeyof the San Juan river, and over Iske Nicaragua, find no high moun- tains to precipits’s their moisture until they reach the voleanic peaks of Ometepec and Madeira.

The whole umber of days during which rain fell was 139, and the whole number of dry days was 226. During tbe six months from May to October inclusive, distinguished as tbe wet reascn, the whole fall was 90.89 inches, and durisg the remaining six months, distinguithed as the dry season, only 6 82 incres. t these observations, es I Lave sald, were made at Ri nder the lee of the volcano of Ometepec, where rain fala than at Granada or leon, im the northern portion of the State. At Rivas there was but one monh, February, ja which no rain fell. In 1850, in Leon, no rain fell for three months, from the lst of January to the Ist of April. The sverage annus! fall of rain and snow in the State of New York, during the ten years preceding 1846, ac cordir g to the report of the Regents of the University, is os.14 inches. The est ‘all in any one year duzing that pericd was 37.04 inches, and the least 32.10 inches. The controversy between our government and that of Great Britain on the Central American ques- tion has made our readers tamiliar with the nomen- clature of certain islands in the Bay of Honduras, which are properly dependencies of that State, but which have been appropriated, under various pre- texts, by our greedy English cousins. As they are probably but little acquainted with the real charac- ter and importance of these acquisitions, we shall quote what our author says regarding them :— THY BAY ISLAND& To the northward of the main jand of Honduras, ia the bay of the same name, there is @ cluster cf isiands lyicg nearly parallel to the coast, at a distance from {¢ of from vhirty to tifty miles, Their names, in the order of their Ratan (sometimes written Ruatan and Rattan), yneja (or Bonsces).
