MAP OP CENTRAL AMERICA.-As the questions connected with Central America

are neither few nor transitory, a good map of the region is a timely production. . Mr. Stanford, of Charing Cross, has published one which at least has been got up with care, founded on the best known data, and revised by competent hands. The map is a large sheet ; and it contains, besides the states of Guatemala, Honduras, Salvador, Nicar- agua, Costa Rica, Belise, the Mosquito territory, and the Bay Islands, sections showing the routes projected and established between the At- lantic and Pacific Oceans. These sections are laid down from surveys by Mr. Squier, Colonel Hughes, Colonel Childs, and Dr. Andreas Oersted ; and they show with much distinctness the relative levels of the proposed routes. The map is clearly printed and carefully engraved.
