The Future OF Central America

Since the failure of the Costa Ricans to
expel the Americans from Nicaragua, the
enemies of Gen. WALKEA's enterprise are
trying to convince themselves and others. that
the poverty OF the country in resources and
the unhealthiness of the climate are insepa-
rable obstacles to successful American Colon
ization in that quarter. If the facts were as
they represent them to be, then their conclu-
sions would be right, but it is not that Nicar-
augua, or any of the States of Central Amer
lea, Is so poor in resources that 1t cannot SUD-
port and give profitable employment to a
large emgation Of natives of more Northern
attitudes
On the contrary, Central America is rich in
undeveloped resources, requiring but little
capital and American energy and enterprise
to make them yield large harvests Of gain.
Parts of the country, just like parts OF our
own country, are unhealthy TO the unaclma-
ted. hut there are extensive and fertile tracts
in the mountainous regions lying near the
Pacific coast which are exceedingly salubri-
Gus, and where emigrants from Northern
ATTITUDES may enjoy general good health.
The English have fo,in.l difficulty in cod
OEizing parts OF Central America, and surely,
where natives of England can inhabit and
con:ol the native population, Americans may
hope to succeed in asserting political and
social supremacy.
Climate, where the soil is fertile, aud COM
mercial advantages are offered, has never vet
proved an invincible foe to the enterprise of
the white man. 1t is only where sterrility
and insalubrity are combined, that the white
man, not finding the temptations necessary
to induce him to accept risks, has abandoned
the field. But wherever there are fruitful
soils, rich mines, and inviting marts for COM
merce, there the white man will assert his
empre-hs sovereignty, so to speak-over
the worlds wealth. There are in Central
America no insuperablc obstacles to North
American colonization, and ten years from
this time will see the lsthmus connecting the
two Western Continents entirely subjected to
North American control.
An immense trade will be the result of the
establishment Of staple institutions and the
introduction of a progressive civilization in
the Central American States. Across the
lsthmian routes rich commerce will pass
and hourishing cities will spring ND where
there are now but few Temporary huts

The hearty response with which the NOM

Singular FREAK or AN ELEPHAST.-Thc

ing
"The elephant Hannibal, which left its
winter quarters in this city on last week to
accompany Driesbach's menagerie in its an
nual peregriDtions, while passing from Jack
town 10 Newark, gave an instance of good
nature, as we'll as attachment for its keeper,
quite noteworthy in an animal which has
acquired so formidable reputation.
at seems that in passing between the two
places named, "Banjo Bill" the keeper of
the elephant, was taken with Git and fell
from mis- horse into the road quite helpless.
Hannibal at once stopped, aud with the ut
most gentleness endeavored to place Bill on
his feet again. Failing, after several efforts,
he gave up in despair and stretched himself
across the road beside his insensible master.
Some countrymen who were passing, came
up to render assistance, but Hannibal declined
accepting it, and gave some very significant
hints that they had better keep their distance.
As last resort, the elephant having blocka-
ded the road so as to make 1t impossible, q
messenger was sent to Newark, who return
ed with an employee of the menagerie, 80
that Bill was finally taken care of and Han
nibal relieved from the responsible position
