How the Central American States can Pre-

The letters from the Paraguay expedition give
glowing accounts OF the prosperity of the " Argen-
tine Confederation, over which presides Cen.
UrQuira, who holds out every indueeuent oil pro.
fit, liberty and protection to every description OF
foreign industry.
This bold and generous policy, i is stated, is
already bearing rich fruits. In the first place,
the concoursa of strangers with productive indus
try and new aud growing interests is forming
rampant against revolutions and intestine ware,
which have hitherto decimated the mixed Spanisl,
| races.
As an instance of this, in the town of Rosario,
which five wears ago consisted Of fifty ranchos.

journal of Commerce that this town now con-
tuins ''somc % 900 inhabitants, more than thres
iourths foreigners; buildings are daily going up:
there is Il bank which allows one and u half per

is selling for so front foot. There Is hustle
and an activity closely resembling the conBtruc-
tive movement of san Francisco ten years ago
Steamers arrive and depart daily, and line OF
diligenrcs' conn actS Rosario with the remote pro-
vinccs Of Sdl5a and Tucuman, and carries the ira
yeIer to Valparaiso us far as Mendoza, the near-

"a German Colony at Santa F. consisting of
one hundred families. cmigrated to Uruguay four
wears ago To each was given all the ground
they could till. all the oxen, horses, and impls-
m ,nts of agriculture they could employ; and
wears provisions. Each year 20 per cent. of the
produce Of their labor reserved to pay the
oypcnscs of their cmi grafton and installation,
with the understanding that, upon the betrayal
or these outlaws. the land should remain their pro-
nertv in fee. Tbs gear has Squared the accounts,

Now this is an example which should be fol-
lowed by all tha Central American States, parti-
oularly Nicaragua This little republic has
within its borders as much wealth as any State
of its sizo in the known world. It's soil is rich,
and will bring forth in a1uniance cof,e, sugar,
cocpa, INDIGO and toblcco of the hast quality
Its mines Of silver and gold have no superior, yet
all remains undeycloped. 1t has fine harbors on
the Pacific ocean, on the Caribbean sea, and IN
the centre of the republic is one of the most
beautiful lakes in the world. On its borders are
IN be found the most valuable e-woods, mahosa-
nv. &c. it has one of the best transit routes be-
tween the two oceans. the water communication
being only separated by strip OF land twelve
miles wide. Yet look ut the position OF Nicaril-
rua. in contrast with that Of the ArSehtine Con-
/ federation

canital and the same state of things that now
