u. >. COAST AND -GEODET1C SURVEY,
STEAMER MACARTHUR,
! SANTA BARBARA, Cal, Aug. 26, 1879.
EDITOR BULLETIN Being
subscriber to your journal, I have
noticed that you have kept the
public Informed in regard to
Lesseps' Interoceanic Canal
Scheme"-and as the subject of
the canal is necessarily Of, great
interest to the people of this coast,
! 1 take the liberty to snblnit 10
you few remarks, of which you
may make any use you please.
As - p.e.ude.I would mention
that was a member of the two
Government expeditions to Mic
aragua N 1872 and 1878; and also
Eof the Panama expedition in 1875,
| was chief of one of the field par
ties on all of them, and I have
now before me the official reports,
and so letter from Civil En-
gineeg Menocal U. s. N, who was
our chief engineer, and also one
OF the commissioners to Paris q
few months since. I merely
mention this to show that I am
not writing from imagination
! but facts. / would also mention
! that | am in favor OF the Nicara-
qua route, and think with all the
officers who did the hard work on
10 Isthmus, that Mr.. De.Lesseps
carried matters with a very high
hand when he set aside our
official results and selected d
route which has not been survey
cd at Ill, which he has never
seen, and of the character OF
which he knows nothing, except
ing from the imperfect maps OF
the Panama Railroad and those
If AIr. Garella.
Its well known that the dis
lance from Aspinwall 10 Panama
IS 80 miles. The railroad how
ever, is about Il miles long, and
the canal line which we laid
across is All miles. The summit
level of this proposed canal 10 l24
feet above the water, necessi-
tating twelve locks on each side.
These are to be fed from reser-
voir 10 be built near Matachin,
and which is itself supplied with
water from the river Chagres by
means of an aqueduct 10 miles in
length. One of the great Difficult
ties OF the canal problem On this
route is the crossing of the Cha
gres river. Its rises during the
rainy season are so rapid.and sc
great that the waters would de.
stroy any Structure that could be
built. The river has been known
to rise 4o feet il as nanny hours
and it could not therefore be sup
posed for one moment that its bee
could be utilized as d canal or it!

y a great point in its favor.

Iy great point in its favor.
The above is, of course, only a
very short review of the two
routes. The subject could be en-
larged SO as to 6ll volumes, but l
will not intrude further on your
valuable time. I trust, however,
that you may find something Of
Interest even in the little I have
written. Respectfully,

Lieutenant u. s. Navy COm'dg.

II is reported that Gov. Throckmorton,
of Texas, VIII remove to San San Diego
to reside. If this is true, the fact would
seem 10 have q railroad significance. as
Throcknorton is closely identified With
