New ORLEANS, Nov. 23.-The steamship Quaker
City arrived here to-day, bringing the California
mails which left San Francisco the 9Th inst,
and were brought across the Isthmus Of Tehuante
pee.
The Quaker City, on her outward passage, in
crossing the bar of Coat2acOalCos, found fourteen
feet of water, and sailed direct up to Minatitlan,
where she met the iron steamer Suchi The latter
vessel, after receiving the passengers and mails,
proceeded up the river, and arrived at Suchil on
the 18th at midnight, the time being but seventy
eight hours from New Orleans From the latter
place the passengers and mails were sent forward
to Ventosa on the Pacific from whence they were
conveyed to San Francisco by the mail steamship
! Oregon.
The California mails of the 18th inst. reached
Ventosa on the evening of the l4th were landed at
Suchil on the 10th, and on the 18th they put
on board the Quaker City bound to New Orleans,
where she arrived in sixty-three hours from Nina
titan.
The steamer Oregon would sail on the 10th inst. for
| Acapulco, connecting with the Panama steamer in
plenty of time for the mails of the 9th of October,
| which reached Nentosa in good time.
1t is confidently asserted that the trip from San
| Francisco to New Orleans can be made by this
route in twelve days.
1T is represented that the work on the Isthmus is
progressing finely. All but twenty-five miles is in
| good running order. and in two weeks time the
work will be finished and twenty coaches placed on
the route. 1t is proposed to opcn new route via
the river Jatapec which will cut off seven miles Of
the worst mart of the road and brinp the distance
down to one hundred miles There is nInntv Of
