The Amazon Close BY.

We had the. pleasure yesterday Of conversing
with his Excellency Don Manuel Jjurra, the Gov
ernor of one Of the Amazonian provinces of Peru.
He left Nauta last month in a steamer for Para,
where he arrived at the end of fourteen days,
stopping six by the way; here he took canvass,
and in sixteen days more was in New York; thus
showing that the energies and enterprise which the
press of the country has directed to the Amazon,
by calling attention to its great resources and their
physical connexion with the United States have
already practically brought those distant regions
within three weeks easy travel from our own shores
Nauta is at the foot of the Peruvian Andes, and
is described by its Governor in the most glowing
terms He thinks 1t one Of the finest countries on
the face of the earth. He is the gentleman who
accompanied Lieutenant Herndon as companion
and friend, during his exploration of the Amazon.
The frequent and agreeable illusions made to Senior
Jjurra in that interesting book Of travels, made us
feel that he was an old acquaintance.
Charmed with the country, Jjurra, it will be re-
collected, stopped on the Amazon, and resolved to
devote his energies and life to the settlement of it's
banks and the development of its resources.-Na-
