The Pactfic Commerve—tothmas and Over= land Routes —Steamsitps, Cameis and Rotlroads. From the first experimental voyage of Colambus, to the present day, the paramount object of the commercial world has been ® westera passage to the trade of China and the East Indies. With this view, the governments of Spain, Great Britain and France have made repeated explorations of the Jethmus passages—the first having been by Cortez> of the Tehuantepec route, one hundred years be- fore the landing of the Pilgrims at Plymouth Rock. To the northward, frequent attempts have been made to discover a northwest passage through the icebergs of the Arctic ocean, which have proved that route utterly impracticable. It is only, how- ever, since the introduction of steamships, and our acquisition of California, that a communication with the Pacific, shorter than the cireuit of Cape Hom, could be no longer postponed. Various routes have been projected, by the isthmus and acroes the continent from the Missis , each of which hes its advan ages and drawbacks ; bat all of which would be in demand 1f completed. The immediate necessity is a railroad or ship canal across the isthmus; the permanent object is a rail rowd from the Mississippi valley to the Pacific. ‘The three principal isthmus routes are— 1. The Panama route, railroad. 2. The Sen Joan and ‘agua route, by river, Jake, and ship canal. 3. The Tehuantepec route, railroad or ship canal. TANAMA.@ The 4 is under way tor all, Stevens, ® Ne have ail (he facilities on the 16th inst., to “put the ball in motion” for their route. The people ot the Lower Mississipp) are also to hold a National Convention on the 23d inst., for a similar purpose, at Memphis. Both routes have their peculiar advantages and draw- backs, The lower route, by the Gila, would give five hundred miles of more formidable work than that of the Hudson River road through the High- lands. The central route would be more desireable; but after crossing the Great Basin from the Salt Luke, the tremeudous barrier ef the Sierra Neva- da would have t0 be sarmounted. We see no way in which the Pacifie could be reached from the Missiesippi westward, short of fifteen hundred miles ‘The route, any direction, lies ewer uninhabited mountains and deserts, fur hundreds of miles, without timber or facilities of any kind, exeopt yocks and sand. It would take a hundred mitlious to build the read, and at the rate of one huntred miles agear it would require fikeen years to:com- plete it. The work will be dene but the »spare copital of the whole country, and the febor of 100,009, men could scarcely firish it in lees than filteen years. What, then, is our policyia the interval? Let the government establish, or encourage the estab- ishment of jines of camels overlawe, by the South Poss and the Salt Lake, and by Santa Fe and the Gila, Lt is the very country forthe camel; end with a few relay: i stations on the way, the journey from the Mississippi across te the Sacra- mento could be made ia tweaty days. Nor could any thing be more useful im the building of the railroad then ex for the <ransportation cf supplies. The commerce between the two oceans, meantime, demands that the three isthius seges should be put into operation. The mualti- plication ot our lines of steamshipa, the expansion and werease of our Pacific trade, the resources of our country, and the enterprise of our people, de- mand them all. Give us the camels, the steam- ships, the isthmus passages, and thus, while the els, the trade ef the wold. When completed, with the New Jerusalem as the half-way station, its re- millenium. sults cannot stop short-of th Tne Reernr Cena Ex ulous organizations in New Orleans and New York for the invasion and conquest of the island of Cuba, have collapeed ; the funds are squandered or pocketed ; the financiers dispersed ; Round Is lend is evacuated ; the war steamers sent down to watch it are withdrawn; and the panic of the eabi- net, like the Poussin panic, has turned out a farce. All this was to be expected, from the character, | objects, end materials of the enterprise. The whole thing was a Plainfield shave. The Plain- field financiers, after, in 1846 or 1847, exhausting the public credulity m their spurious shiaplisters, shut up their rascally shaving shops for a still more megnificent speculation, A deputation of the con- cer, in a sort of equivocal, semi-official capacity, set out during the Mexican war, ostensibly on a pleasure excursion to the city of Mexico, but yeally with the view of commencing their plot in the island of Cuba. Going and coming, they | stopped at Havana ; and on their return to New York, @ paper in Spanish was started, to push the scheme of snnexation. The scheme, dark as it was, extended its feelers, and was gradually ripening. The first information of the fact was communicated, to us from @ correspondent at New Orleans, and it is supposed that with this revelae tion, the Plainfield managers, to escape detection, turned State's evidence, and peached to the State 1 iment. At all events, this appears to be a sutisfactory solution of the mystery and the dis- covery of the plot. The rest is well known, It was @ heer speculation and nothing else ; and but for the miserable bungling of the financiers and menegers, they might have made something out of it. The object was somehow to make a speedy completion [ts advanteges he fo ile Hhortacss: of npace between Lhe two oer tively eaey giadiogs for the road, eonrtruction — W Will probably be tivished, wtien all the Oangers aad ox- penrive delays of this route will be removed aud a d the abeapacss partenger lighting bit regar as he leaves the stemmer ia the Alianic may fmeoke it anti he ascends the ship's je in the |acine thus reductog the dieunce betweon less than the leogth of aregar.
