been repeatedly assigned in the Republic the organ Of
the administration, justification Of the removals Of

patry and ignoble, and so utterly unworthy Of

To the Editor of the Union

Your correspondent r. G., in his comments upon the
report OF the Naval Committee of the House of Repre-
sentatives the Panama railroad project" has fallen
into quite natural to unacquanted with the
practical navigation Of the He says that the re-
suits OF his own particular examination of two of the
principal routes prove that " the estimated distances given
in that report reduced beloW the possibility of naui
CATION the Panama route hHe those around the Cape
Of Good Hope are considerably exaggerated"
Now will endeavor to indicate of the errors of
these results of r. e.. extract two of his re-
estimates. Z" The line from New York" he saws, to
the cape [Goo Hope] passes entirely over the Atlantic
and might be navgated, with little deviation by sailing
vessel" &c. And the deviatons necessary upon the
two lines New York to Cape of Good Hope, and thence
to Canton) would certainly be less than those abss
lutely required the route from Panama to Canton"
Now, the fact is--and great fact well known to the
whole navigating world--that sailing vessel has abso
luey TO the Atlantic nearly three times to reach
the Cape of Good Hope from New York Such are the
very great devatons rendered indispensable by the trade
winds which prevail north and south of the equator
And these very great devations it quite clear, have
not entered into r. CTS estimates. Besides ii is proper
to allow % per cent of the distance additional deviation
account of head winds which may be encountered
this best and only practical route Sailors have found
and it is to be considered that much the greater part of
this route from New York to Canton is through varia-
bes."
If R. G. will, therefore, reconsider his measurements
and estimates on these practical principles his results
will likely differ but tle if at all, from those presented
IN the report OF Mr. King And he will find, by the incest
measurement, that 400 miles is full allowance for de-
vatons from the great circle between Panama and Can
