Journeying from London to Calcutta, via the Cape
of Good Hope, a distance of no less than 11,700
miles is necessary to be traversed. Across the isthmus
of Suez the route extends to 7,920 miles. Whereas
a direct line of actually 17,280 miles has to be passed
over in going by way of the isthmus of Panama.
According to this calculation, therefore, the last-
mentioned route would ho longer than the first by
5,580, and longer than the second by 9,360 miles in
