YUCATAN.

YUCATAN
The two volumes upon the wonders OF Central ana
South America, which MIR. Stephens gave to the
world a few years since, were, perhaps, more gems
rally and more thoroughly read, than any work Of
Thai size, which has been published for years and
most amply did they deserve, and richly d'd they re-
ward the attention they received. Inc nature OIL
the volumes were such TO create thirst Tor others
The wonders described only showed thai o'her won''
ders needed description and there was cry al once
for more. There is pride, too, in the cons'dera-
ton that the researches of the learned and curious
are being transferred from the old to the new woro
from Thebes to Yucatan and that the greemess
with which we are charged by the grey boards OF 'he
East is secondary formation, like the trees ana
heritage that find root on the massy walls, the Piied
columns, and the half buried temples OF our newly
discovered ruins
Mr. Stephens in the two octave volumes, which
are the result his second expedition into the land
of ruins and wonders more than gratihes all hopes
excited, and more than redeems all promises made,
when he undertook his voyage. He entities his yo-
lumes, "Incidents of Travels in fucatan )" and he
illustrates these volumes by hundred and fiiy
pictures, taken by Mr.. Catherwood, in Dagucrreo-
type SC and engraved under his immediate inspec
ton so that the pictorial portion is far superior TO
the former work, well in quantity as quality, and
constitute, in themselves, valuable and instructive
decorations worth twice the price OF the work.
Mr. Stephens has recorded the incidents IN his
most felictous vein, and mingled the constant in
sruction which they mpart with an occasional dash
Of humor, that gives richer relish.
We have not had time to read the whole Of the
work but wherever the eye has fallen, it has met
something to detain it, some interesting description Of
person or place, or some illustration of temple walls
or images, that strangers had reared who must have
known that which the eastern world thinks was its
own original discovery and invention.
Messrs. Harper & Brother, of New York, are the
publishers Of these volumes and they have done
themselves credit in the style in which they have is
sued them, sin this the day of poor things" And
the author must be thankful to them, the readers
cannot fail of being, for the fine paper, and large
clear type in which the work is printed.
