York to the mouth of the Columbia river


by the way of Cape Horn, is estimated a,
$4,000 miles. A ship canal to Panama,
to be cut through the Isthmus of Darien,
which is only thirty.seveh miles, would
save eight thousand miles, or more than
one half the distance, reducing the voyage
out and back TO less than the time req uirec
to make the passage out. The distance
from New York to the mouth of the Co.
lumbia river by land, is about 37OO miles.
