Mississippi river - its sources mouth and valley - the balize.-the great central region of America, which ex tends from the Rocky Mountains to the lakes, and sweeps away to the mouth of the Atcha falaya, and along the shores of the gulf; bounded by a perimeter of two thousand leagues; with an area of a million and a quar ter of square miles, a population verging upon that of all the remaining portions of the Union, and a trade demanding access to all the markets of the world; belongs to the history of the generation of men that are now alive, and in the creation of which they have been the moving agents. In compari son, all the marvellous developments Of the past sink into nothing; the famed fertility of the Nile, the Scandinavian forests prolific of men, and earning the epithet cradle Of the human race, the overshadowing growth of Rome and Roman power.
