"The 30th Of December, 1879, will be for

The steamer came Immediately alongside
the wharf where committee of reception,
appointed by the gov vcrnment, delega-
ton from the state assembly and q large
number of invited citizens were collected
to welcome the illustrious engineer and
other members of his party. In the eve
ming many houses were Illuminated and
there was fine display of fire warks. On
the morning Of the 3lst DeLesseps and
the engineers Of his party made an exam
ination of the harbor from Pacific Mail
wharf. OeLesseps says there are only two
great difficulties to overcome. The Cha.

ing the head waters of the river into an
other channel and the second will disap
pear before wells which will be sunk ant
