Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Pictorial Geography of the World, Vol. 2: Comprising a System of Universal Geography, Popular and Scientific; The New World In the preparation of this volume, it has been a leading object to dwell at length on those parts of the globe slightly noticed in the original work, but which the progress of events has brought, and' 18 bringing, more conspicuously into notice. Another object has been to furnish a more full account of those countries in which, as the seats of the most advanced civilization, and the centres of movement, the reader would naturally feel the greatest interest. The Introduction includes much valuable scien tific information bearing on the subject of physical geography. In the body of the work, an account is given of the rapidly growing provinces of British North America, more full, and based on more recent information than is to be found elsewhere. Due attention has also been paid to the rising British colonies of Australia. A laigo space is devoted to Bumpe, and especially to the British Empire, an the country in which, next to his own, the reader would naturally feel the deepest interest. The articles on the United States, besides giving the results of the recent geographical explorations of the western portions of our territory, both the old and that more recently acquired, embody the most important statistical returns of 'the census of 1850. It will be observed that the two parts, the one relating to the Old World, and the other to the New World, are paged separately, and that each has a separate Index.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Pictorial Geography of the World, Vol. 2: Comprising a System of Universal Geography, Popular and Scientific, Including a Physical, Political, and Statistical Account of the Earth and Its Various Divisions, With Numerous Sketches From Recent Travels; The New World The Greenlanders indemnify themselves for their toils at sea, by taking their case on shore where all the labors, and even those of bringing the huge stones for their dwellings, are per formed by females. The lot of the females is hard; de tied to the rank of slaves, they are not permitted even to eat in the company of men. In such: state of society, marriage is hardly ever a contract made by the consent of b0th parties. The marriages are made with little cere mony, and the courtships are very summary. The lover, after an understanding with the pa rents, sends or goes for his bride, and resistance on her part is of little avail indeed, a certain degree of it has grown into a custom, for it is thought discreditable in a woman to be lightly or willingly won. Before marriage, the females are said to conduct themselves in a more moral way than after, and there is little evil that can be justly said of them while they are single. There are few divorces where there are children; though this depends upon the will of the husband, whose authority is unlimited. He may beat his wife without reproach, but would sub ject himself to much animadversion were he to strike a female domestic for the wife to strike one, is unpardonable.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Pictorial Geography of the World, Vol. 1: Comprising a System of Universal Geography, Popular and Scientific, Including a Physical, Political, and Statistical Account of the Earth and Its Various Divisions, With Numerous Sketches From Recent Travels; The Old World Oontiuent had not been defined; large portions of the in terior had not been explored; vast seas and rivers were but partially known the shape of the earth had not been ascertained; the continent of America and the Oceanic islands, were as yet undiscovered. But a new era was approaching. The Republics of Italy, and especially that 0 Venice, are the sta'tes in which a spirit of commerce and inquiry had arisen, and rapid advances were made in geogra hical knowledge. About this time Marco Polo, a nob e suetian spent twenty-five years in traversi the remote parts of, Asia. His narrative was soon trans ated into various langu s, and spread over Europe. The dis covery of America, y Columbus, soon followed. The prog rear of discovery over the globe, when the first steps had been taken, was astonishingly rapid; no cost, no peril, de terred even private adventurers from equipping fleets, cross ing the oceans, and facing the rage of savage nations in the remotest extremities of the earth. Before Columbus had seen the American continent, and the mouth of the Orinoco, Cabot, of Venetian descent, but sailing under English auspices, discovered Newfoundland, and coasted along the 'present territory of the United States, probably as far as irginia. In the next two or three years, the Cortereals, a daring family of Portuguese navigators, be gan the long and varn search of a passage round the north of America; they sailed alon the coast of Labrador, and entered the spacious inlet 0 Hudson's Bay, which they seem to have mistaken for the sea between Africa and America but two of them unhappily perished. In 1501, Cabral, destined for India, struck unex tedly on the coast of Brazil, which he claimed for Ponummerigo Vespucci had sailed along a great part of Terra Firms and Guiana, and he now made two extensive vctiyages alon the coast of Brazil; services which obtained or im the igh honor of giving his name to the whole continent. Grijalva and (fieda went round a great part of the circuit of the coasts o the Gulf of Mexico. In 1513, Nunez Balboa, crossing the narrow isthmus of Panama, beheld the boundless expanse of the Pacific Ocean. These discoveries afi'orded the im pulse which prompted Cortez and Pisarro to engage in their adventurous and sanguinary career; in which, witha hand thi of daring followers, they subverted the extensive and populous empires of Mexico and Peru. Expeditions were soon 'pushed forward on one side to Chili, and on the other to C ifornia, and the re 'ons to the north. Nearl a full view was thus obtained, th of the great interior readth of America, and of that amazing range of coast which it presents to the southern ocean.
