To Mr. Cooke he suxgested the ivea of @ line Of steamers, to run dtrectly from New York to Chagres, hence across ihe isthmus up 40 Calitornia and Oregou. Mr. Cooke, fully comprehending the value aud importance of there suggestions, gathered in their support qwany statistics, and throvgh the medium ot his correspondence with the United Stetes vette and the New York Courier and Euquirer, be made the idea so feasible and attractive as to arrest the attention of the entire country. Ar same time. subsequently, those valua ble facts and features were embodied in his of- ficial dispatches from the Consular office of Sir Morehead, at Valparaiso, to the Department of State. The strong aud favorable impression made by these dispatches upon the mind of ex-President Buchanan, then Secretary of State, secured ‘for the prow ject his “unqualitied endorsement, and in the next e of Mr. Polk, then President of the United States, to Comgress, he mentior this project for favorable consideration.
