Book excerpt: Excerpt from Papers on Spanish America The great historian of the Spanish conquests in America remarks: It would seem to have been especially ordered by Providence that the discovery of the two great divisions of the American hemi sphere should fall to the two races best fitted to conquer and colonize them. Thus the, northern section was consigned to the An lo-saxon race whose orderly, industrious habits found an ample field for development under its colder skies, and on its more rugged soil; while the southern portion, with its rich tropical products and treasures of mineral wealth, held out the most attractive bait to invite the enterprise of the Spaniards.
