OFFICE OF TuR PANAMA RAIL-RoAD COMPANY,
NEw YORK, July 20, 1857.
The Panama Railroad Company takes this method
SErN of informing those interested in the Whaling bust
S4HJf ness, Of the advantages offered by the Railroad
- across the Isthmus Of Panama, for the shipment Of
OIL from the Pacific to the United States, and for sending out
fits and supplies from the United States to Panama
The Railroad has been in regular and successful operation for
more than two years, and its capacity for the transportation OF
has been fully tested. The attention Of several Captains of
whaleships has recently been turned to the subject OF shipping
their oil from Panama to New York during the present season,
and the Panama RAILROAD Company has made arrangements
to afford every facility which may be required for the accom-
plishment Of this important object A Pier, $50 feet long, has
been built in the bay of Panama, to the end Of which Freight
alongside, and deliver the same alongside OF vessels at Aspn-
wall. Vessels of from 200 to 800 tons can lie at the Pier with
safety, grounding in the mud at low water.
The vessels to and from Aspinwall are fast-saiing brigs, be
longing to the RAILROAD Company, and the Company is pre-
pared to receive oil at Panama and deliver it in New York,
under through Bills Of LadinS at the rate Of seven
lon If received in the harbor from ships tackles, charging for
the capacity Of the casks, without allowing for vantage. For
whalebone, one and one-haf cents per pound. This charge
covers every expense from Panama to New York, in case
the oil is sent through the Superintendent or Commercial Agent
Of the Panama Railroad Company, insurance excepted The
freights may be made payable on the Isthmus or in New York
at the option Of the shipper.
The vessels Of the Company sail regularly semi-monthly, and
the average passages to and from AspinwaIl are about twenty to
twenty-five days. The time occupied in crossing the Ishmus is
four hours Oil, during its transit across the Isthmus, will be
covered with canvas, or conveyed in covered cars. and owners
may be assured that every care will be taken to prevent leakage.
Several cargoes have already been conveyed to New York with
Oil or other goods consigned for transportation to the Super
intendent Of the Panama Railroad Company, or to w ilIiam

STEAM GLoRIrYrxG ELEcrRrcrrr.-A curious cele-
bration of the Atlantic Telegraph, took place at SYRIA
cuse, N. Y, when the news was received there of the
successful laying of the cable. Says the Syracuse
Journal:
tives sent up a shrek from their steam-whistles
which shook the 6rmest buildings to the centre,
deafened every ear. and penetrated, as we verify
believe, west to Lake Erie and east to tide-water.
There is no description, in poetry or prose, which can
convey any just idea of the noise (thar is the only
word) that was thus created. 1t was positively
awful Such An unearthly sound-such a strange,
mysterious and overwhelming sound-sucha terrible,
tremendous and monstrous sound-never was heard
before. 1t reminded us Of the seven thunders of the
Revelation; Of a legion of Niagaras; of the horn of
Gabriel. 1--WE speak reverently, } and the Day of Judg-
ment. Men grew pale. women tainted, and children
went into commissions as they heard it.
