This will at once familiarize the public with its capabilities, and will prepare the way for the grand work, which is timultancously contemplated. ‘The statistics of the last year show that the number of pasrengers monthly crossing the isthmus. have been more than 4000, and the belief is, that as soon the porsibility exists, nearly the whole of these will go tbrovgh Rice agua—an expectation thi ms to be warranted by the difference of climate, as compared with Panama, and the great saving of distance: The obarge contemplated for each passenger is forty dollars, and the transit is oe to be ar- ranged go as to occupy not more than twenty-four hours. Instead of any diminution of the tide of traffic, signs of its rapid increase are everywhere obsurvable ; but supposing, it is argued, that the monthly number of passengers #hould amount only to half the average whieh crossed the isthmus in 1849, it would make an Aggregate of not less than 24.000 perrons per annum, which. at $40 each, would yield nearly $1,000.000, about £200000, The freight of merchandise aud ele. and the all for mail service, will he added; andas the land carriage connected route will only be for a distance of 15 miles, the ex- penses of the whole service will be altogether insignifi- cant. Under these circumstances, the holders contract are calculating upon immense profits ; as the saving effected by the choice of this line ix too palpable to admit of competition im auy other part of the isthmus, and they possess ® monopoly as far as Nicaragua is concerned, there is apparently no reason to distr in any impertant degree, these favorable eonelusio With regard to the object in which Burope fs more immediately concerned, namely, the construction of a canal that sbal) admit the parwage of the largest ships, there seems to be an active feeling, which promises well for the direct accomy lishment of the undertaking. Tp 1845, the cost of the work was estimated at £4,000,- 000, and most writers, including English offlcers and engineers, who have visited the district since that time, bave been disposed, bearing in mind the im- provements which have taken place in mechanical science, to consider this as rather over than under what would be required. The tonnage that would yearly pass threugh the canal was then calculated at 900 060 "tons, which, at $5 per ton, (American and ‘veasels being Mable. according to the recent to be charged #like,) would yield $4,500,000, or about £900,000 a year.

This isthe view given by the American pri ters of the enterprise, and the totals are such as to appear at the firet glance almost preposterous.
