rI,o THE PUBLlc.-we the undersigned, hav

TINO THE PUBLlC.-We the undersigned, hav-
i Jog crossed Nicaragua, en- route from Cali
iornia 10 New York, under the impression and
solemn assurance of the agents of the line that 1t
was quicker and more desirable than that by Pa
mama; and having found it so entirely different,
having suffered great detention, loss and expo
sure, we deem il duty to the public TO make
known the facts. The steamer Independence, in
which we left San Francisco, brought down more
than double the number OF passengers she could
accommodate, and more than double the number
the agent represented as having taken passage on
her. The boat, too, is unfit and unsafe sea
boat. The consequence was, that our passage TO
San Juan del Sud was one of great danger and suf-
fering.
we confidently expected, on arriving at San Ju-
del Sud. 20 be provided with transportation for
ourselves and baggage Immediately, as we had
been led TO believe that the transit would not re
quire than forty eight hours We found,
however, that the agent had not provided animals,
and could not procure them; so that after remain
ing two days, many OF the passengers set oil on
foot, under the assurance that their baggage would
be forwarded to them, and that the steamer would
not leave Panama without il. We found the road
TO Lake Nicaragua nearly impracticable, and the
distance, instead of being twelve miles, many Of
US had to travel thirty The boats on the lake and
river are very small and UNIT for passengers, and,
although packed like slave ships could not take
half of the passengers. We were without food, and
exposed to violent rains. On the seventh day we
reached San Juan del Norte, and were forced to
come away at once in the Prometheus. Not more
than one half the passengers of the Independence
have been able to get through; the remainder.
some two hundred, being left on the route with the
specie, and nearly all the baggage. We were most
uncivilly received and miserably provided for on
board the Prometheus. In consequence, VIC left
her at Havana, and by the kindness OF Captain
Schenck we received on board the Ohio.
1t is not necessary to give detailed account OF
the anpoyances to which we have been subjected
by the Misrepresentation and insolence of agents,
the want of food and room, the loss of baggage
and unexpected delay; it is enough TO express our
MT
and in the present condition OF the roads, and the
present means OF transportation, the Panama route
is preferable to that by Nicaragua.
In conclusion, we beg 10 return our thanks to
Captain Schenck of the steamship Ohio, for the
courteous treatment have received from him
during our boisterous passage, and particularly
for receiving on board, as it was contrary, we
are informed, TO his instructions TO receive passen
gers from the opposition line.

From me Boston Courier.
The eaterprsing publishers have here presented
10 the legal profession, we judge, a long-felt
dssideraituH-a prompt, cheap, and comprehensive
series of reports Of all the decisions of all the Eng
lish courts The series commences with the cases
of the November term, 1850; and we observc in the
FIRST number decisions pronounced in Westminster
Hall on the 30th January, 1851. This is unparal-
eled despatch in the history of legal reporting.
Westminster is here brought two years nearer to
US than our own court house The style in which
the work is issued reflects great credit upon the
publishers, editors and all connected with II.
The page is large, fair, white and readable. The
table Of cases and index seem to be prepared with
much care ennd diligence. The former strikes US as
executed on very useful plan, referring not only
to the case and page of the volume but containing
also short abstract of the subject OF each case.
The editors notes scattered through the volume,
referring to American decisions, and still more TO
the value OF the work. The publication is to be
continued in monthly parts or numbers, making
each year six large volumes, for the remark
ably low price of 40 per annuni We trust both
editors and publishers will receive ample remuner,
alton for the service they are here doing the legal
profession.
Such a publication, we think, cannot fail to be
useful 10 the profession and profitable TO the pub

IL present many novel features suited to the ad-
vanGing dc nands of the public taste. IL has ever
been the object of the publisher to take the lead
among the popular Magazines of this country; and
the host of imitators, who have been constantly
following-'toiing after him In vain"-are suth
cient to attest his brilliant success The prompt
ness with which every new idea that he suggests is
adopted by others, is sufficient for his not

tain in addition to the most beautiful and numerous
