This route would effect a saving cf twenty four honrs' time over the Suez cana'. The Khedive is sharp, and all he lacks is the money to carry out thw? great purpose.

To say that '-the good ship has breasted the storm and outrode the gale, has finished its work and shonld be dismantled in the harbor it has reached, would call forth a pro- fast of earnest indignation. . .
