New 'fort; Harpai. . itrituki.; 1869., In the ,year 1863, the United States Govern ment diepstohed an 'expedition to explore the tributaries , of the river La Plata, and the adja cent countries,' tinder the command of Captain Page. Thie expedition was engaged in the duty assigned during the years 1858, '54, '55, and '66, and in.the goodly Bvo., now before nu, we have , the results preeented with much minuteness of de tail, and•in a echolarlike manner which is trnly creditable to the author. Captain Page, after the conclusion of his &Mee, presented a " port" of the EiPloration, to the Secretary of the Navy, which wee deemed abundantly nat.'. iefacttiry ; but many friends and journalists in' Europe and , America sum the necessity of more• minute and ample details being given respecitingl the regions through which he had passed. Ae- , cordingly be has compiled this gbodly volume from his journal, in which we haie the details of hie proceedings for the space of some three thousand mix hundred miles by water, and four theneand four hundred miles by land, through ParagnaY and the Argentine tionfederatioig And* the reader could desire in the way of Slititeration;le supplied by the publishers, and the map , at the end of the, volume is not only the largest by fer, but it is the most minute and acicrnrate -which we have ever seen of the Valley of the Li Plata. This worktaken in connexion with the warlike expe-: dition of onr:Goveenment to the same watere, in consequence of the imbroglio which occurred during the exploration, will form an interesting theme for all the intelligent readers of our country. . 112 11112111:1TIOAL or..
