Nor can I, in the following pages, make anything more than a very limited use of my journal, which, whatever may be its value hereafter in illustrating the transition period Of the country in question, is, from necessity, full of references to political transactions and events, upon which it is not my present purpose to Speak; and to persons whose names it would not be delicate or proper to introduce into these pages.

Excerpt: ...existed, and that the river might readily be made to answer every desirable purpose. It will however be found to be the most difficult part of the whole enterprise; not less on account of the insufficiency of the ' river for ship navigation, than on account of the climate. It should be observed, before dismissing this portion of the subject, that the rapids in the river are not formed by the simple aggregation of rocks, but by the interposition of beds of hornblendic and very solid rock, in their natural position, or uplifted by subterranean forces. Mr. Baily inclines to the opinion that these beds, or some of them, have been upheaved at a comparatively late period, by volcanic agency. Amongst the reasons which he gives for this opinion, is the following: "In further corroboration of this hypothesis may be cited an incident that occurred in 1648, in which year a Spanish brigantine, from Carthagena. de las Indias, arrived at Granada: after discharging her cargo and taking another on board, she started on her return voyage, but on proceeding down the river, it was found to be so obstructed at a certain point that the passage was impossible; she was consequently taken back to Granada, the cargo was relanded, and the vessel laid up at a place near by, called the Isletas, where, after lying some years, she was broken up. ' Protests and documents confirmatory of this fact are still existing in the municipal archives of the city. There is indeed no record extant of violent earthquake, nor extraordinary volcanic explosion, having happened at that period; yet the possibility of the event just supposed need not be rejected as purely imaginary, in the face of the historical evidences there are of the rising of Monte Nuevo, near...

CHAPTER I. ABORIGINAL NATIONS OP NICARAGUA; THEIR GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION; LANGUAGES, AND MONUMENTS. The present condition of the Indians of Nicaragua may be very easily inferred from what I have had occasion to say of them in the preceding pages. They have now very completely assimilated with their conquerers, to a great extent intermarried with them, adopted their religion and language, and have taken an entirely new position, both in respect to themselves and the world at large, from that which they occupied at the time of the discovery of America, in the fifteenth century. But it cannot prove uninteresting to the general reader to know something of their former condition, before the infusion of European elements amongst them, when they were governed by laws and institutions originating with themselves, and by religious systems of indigenous growth. And here we are compelled to rely upon the accounts of the early Spanish adventurers, often vague, and sometimes contradictory; upon the few monumental records which time and religious zeal have spared, and upon the fragmentary traditions, and imperfect vocabularies, which are still preserved amongst them. The fullest and most reliable chronicle is that of Gonzalez Fernandez de Oviedo y Valdez, historiographer of the Indies to the King of Spain, who visited Nicaragua in 1526, within four years after its discovery by Gil Gonzalez de Avila. Some portions of his account were used by Herrara, in the compilation of his History of Spanish America, who seems also to have had access to some other sources of information, with which we are unacquainted. Oviedo's chronicle was, nevertheless, never published in the original; nor does its existence appear to have been known...
