Cail published long aga. One of these is that the west:coast of South America_is’east of weridian of Florida. The east coast of South America is ‘nearly | th of London. Another fact not generally considered is that the mas of Panama runs-east and west, and .not north and south. al will run from Colon southeasterly to Panama. C€olon, the e canal, is in west longitude 79 dégrees 52 minutes 58 ,-while Panama, the west ead, is in-west longitude 79 degrees-| jutes 50 seconds. . So Colon being west of Panama, the east end of the canal is west of the west end. Thxs_ interesting geograph- ical ‘paradox is.as little considered as. the east and west locations, 1 y, of America. ¥hen the canal is finjshed the west coast of South Amenca the 8oth meridian; will be nearer to New York City on | 1an to_San Francisco on the 123d meridian west longitude. 2 .change in the current of trade which is ene féature canal implying 2 loss-to this eity, which it will more than however, from the ;dvaniages that -will comie to us-from e from this city will -reach, with our products, in. many of we have a natural moriopoly, the coasts and countries beyond!
