LAKE OF NICARAGUA.-A corrcspon-
dent Of the Providence Journal has
written quite an interesting letter from
Leon de Nicaragua. 1t is under date
of September 10Th, and furnishes some
valuable information in relation TO the
river San Juan, the Lake Of Nicaragua,
and the country generally in the neigh.
borhood. The river San Juan is de.
scribed as a magnificent stream, and the
scenery on its borders is remarkable for
beauty. The banks near the sea are
low, and are covered with palms, which
look like so many giant plumes. Higher
up, the banks are more elevated, "and
covered with dense mass of verdure,
coming down like wall to the very
edge Of the water. There are the broad
leaved plan,ain, the gigantic ceba, the
slender cocoa palm, besides hundred
other strange varieties, turned and
bound together with vines covered with
brigh, flowers, and hanging their long
plant tendrils from every stem. On
this mass of impenetrable verdue, which
never fades, parrots and noisy macaws
glanced in and out, long. necked crane,
mounted on sand bars; bright green
iguanus looked down from the over
hanging limbs, and queer monkeys hung
by their tails and chatted vociferously."
The Lake of Nicaragua is represen-
ted to be remarkable fine body of
water, and nearly as large as Lake On
tario, On the north, "are the undula-
ting slopes and grassy hills of Chartales,
the paradise of the cattle raisers--on
the south, for long distance, are the
ruggid hills towards Costa Rica, the
abode of the untamed Indians; the fine
department of Nicaragua, lately The
scat of terrible connections; the de-
partment of Grenada, with its indigo
and cocoa estates, and its volcanic
peaks. 10 the midst Of the Lake rises
the regular cone Of Ometene, a very
fine mountain, and by its side the vol.
cano of Madeira, capped with clouds.
