fRorosED IsTHMus CANAL.-A Paris cor
respondent writing May 25th, says:
y project has been set On foot here for
the canalizaton of the Isthmus of Panama.
a company has been formed, and, the usual
preliminary in such organizations in Paris. a
grand dinner has been given, and delega-
tion been already sent to New Grenada to
endeavor to make terms with the Govern
ment The proposition is to cut a ship canal
from ocean to ocean, across the Isthmus of
Panama, and midway between the two ex.
tremeties to excavate an immense artificial
harbor, or port, around which a new CITY
30 be called Paris" is to be built. to be
adorned with every conceivable magni6cence.
Most splendid promises are made by the di-
rectors to the Republic of New Granada for
the concessions of land which the latter is
asked to make The company offers to pay
the entire public debt of New Granada: to
eXcavate a canal twelve leagues in length to
make the interior basin large enough TO re-
ceiVe twelve hundred vessels of every ton.
mage TO eXeavate twelve smaller basins
along the line OF the canal, each canable 10
contain two hundred and forty shins 10
build up hundred and ffty nev viuooas
erect hundred and fifty saw mills. and n
hundred and nifty steam engines to make a
poIb anu elccI lighthouse at each end of
the canal, and to build a third lighthouse in
the middle Of the basin of the city; to nut
under immedute cultivation all the lands ce
ded to tho company, to construct a railway
from paris" to Bodega; to create mercan-
tile marine of two hundred and ninety.two
screw steamers, of an aggregate burthen of
$4,000 tons, aud to complete the whole in
seven years from the date of the concessions
in short, to make the Isthmus of Panama
the great commercial centre of the world.
and to build up beautiful cities among the
pestiferous marshes
Although the directors here are perfectly
aerious ln the propositions which they make,
the project, among the outsiders" seems to
be treated as considerable of Joke. and it is
by no means improbable that several periods
9l seven years will pass away before the
dream OF a new Paris, on the bapks oF the

HUMBOLDT AND PRINCE ALDERT-The Lon
don Atheneum contains a review of the ex-
traordinary volume of correspondence Of the
late Baron Humboldt. In the volume Is a
letter from Prince Albert, acknowledging the
receipt of Humboldts "Kosmos." "Unfor-
fortunately says the Athen@um, "this last
contains an expression which Humboldt, not
being perhaps in the best of humor when he
wrote about it to Vanhagen, has turned into
ridicule. The prince consort concludes his
letter thus: "May Heaven, whose circling
seas of light and star-terraces you so noblv
describe, preserve you still for many years to
your country, the world the "Kosmos" itself
in undisturbed freshness both of body and
soul. This is the sincere wish of the entirely
devoted Albert" Upon this, Humboldt re-
marks to Nanhagen that the prince makes
me speak of 'circing seas of light and star
terraces Coburg variation on my text and
quite English from Windsor where there are
nothing but terraces" He then goes on to
state that once in the "Kosmos" he used the
word "star-carpet,' for which the prince sub
sttuted "star-terraces." an offence which, we
think, need not have been visited with any
severity. The prince consort was evidently
no favorite with Humboldt, who COMPLAINS
OF him in this very letter for want of polite-
ness towards him some years previously
when at Stolzentels. On that occasion. he
says, the prince asked him to present conv
of the "Kosmos," which Humboldt, of eourse
did, and "the prince he says, chad the DO,
liteness not to thank me-" The princes ct
ter to him he characterizes as a ''wooden.
weak epistle, and he is even vexed at the
prince sending him copy of Chatterwoods
Views OF Central America ia book" he
says, that | purchased myself two years
ago; fine edition of Byron would have been
far more agreeable" In all this we think
the natural philosopher tart and crotchettv
more suitable gift than Chatterwood's
Views for prince to make to such a traveller
as humboldt does not occur to our mind
How was the prince to know that the philos.
opher would have preferred an edition of

mention IS made of the Queen in Prince AL
oerts letter, and concludes quite gratuitous
~ Us 1t appears to us, that it is because his
o9oA oil nature" is not sufficiently Christian
,tI ,n us tone to secure her commendation -
on see he says "how severely can iudge
when princes write" In another letter 70
Fanhagen, IN reply to one which his cor
respondent Objects to the severity of his
structures upon Prince Albert he s}i,l a;r5s
at the prince, whom he calls "the Man &c 'tSo tSo
Star Terraces" and afiirms, when bs vas v"s

as little as the Irish" "lfihi Dirt p he ex1
claims, "and this is the beautiful husband of

doubt the accuracy of Humboldt's memory
on this point. The words attributed to the
prince consort do not seem to be his style."

Fourth of July.

Another anniversary of the great day of
our Country's Liberty has rolled around. 1t
has found us still in the enjoyment of all the
blessings of union and of free government.
Some of our best and wisest men have feared
for the Republic, in those many dark days OF
civil commotion which have oreshadowed 1t,
and have gone to their graves with sad fore
bodings of the future. Political economists
and writers upon government, both in the
old and new world, have not hesitated to
predict the speedy extinction of liberty upon
this continent. Their prophecies have partly
been realized, for Mexico and the Southern
confederacies have plunged, after brief
career of republicansm, into anarchy and
ruin, and will ere long be blotted from the
face Of the earth. Our Government how
ever, is still in its full vigor and perfection
and promises long to survive the wrecks Of
surrounding peoples.
The love Of the Union is still strong in the
hearts of its citizens, notwithstanding all the
animosities which have existed between
portions of the people of the two great sec
tions North and South, and Notwithstanding
all the threats Of fanatics in either quarter
All over the Nation is renewed to-day the
strong feeling Of the earlier days for the
Union. The best evidence Of the still abb
ding faith of the masses in the integrity o
the Republic, and their determination to pre-
serve it, is in the almost universal celebra
tion of the day. Throughout the boundaries
of the Nation, in almost every city, town and
hamlet, are bonfres and illumnations, re
ioicings and congratulations. In California
in particular, has there never been, since its
admission into the Union, so general feeling
of patriotism as manifested in the preparation
for the celebration of this day. Far up in the
mountains low down in the valleys, all along
the coast, in the most remote of the interior
towns and hamlets. has the flag of the coun'
try Ieen unfurcd the national salute been
prepared, the orator chosen, and the glad
festivities been inaugurated. 1t is proud
and glorious spectacle, and it affords an un.
answerable argument to those who prophecy
an early destruction cf our Confederacy. So
long as the Fourth of July is thus hailed by
the American people, there is no danger of a
dissolution OF the Government.
Desiring to partake of the general rejoic-
ing and not wishing to trouble our readers
this morning with any long homily. even
upon so grand topic as the Fourth of July.
we will bring this unostentatious article to a
close, and inform the public that no paper
will be issued from this Office again before
next Friday morning.
