Ear the phin of the sail transit for ships at Panama was first suggested, and has for air or nigh yeats been persistantly advoosted, by the Alta; bai avem those who have he'd different views can scomely fail to be favourably and strongly im pressed by Mr, Bade' statements, and arguments. He shows himself thoroughly familiar with the subject, meets all the queries of the com mittes in the most direct magrior, and hagar pänt information upon every point, a pon marine architecture, of which, as a civilengineer," ha was presumably ignorant It for Get however, that he studied abip cogitation, and persually superintended the constenation of several ironclads. Soma of the Congressman. fested that the ships when Efter ca of the water, with the weight resting on a few points, would break down under the weight of the cargo. Eads thinks there is in danger. Ships are built so that they shall be streng enough to resist the strain of resting on the bow and stern, or ou the middle when the code are out of water; and, although thosa positions aro soldara ranched in the sea, he saya. the strain on the fastenings is much greater from the waves in a storm than it could possibly be from any mode of lifting obessary to get a Val opon a railroad or more it along. The rapid and continuous shocke which fuck the frame of a steamer during a Lurricane are our tainly very trying
Nor, in the opinion of Eain is there the lenst danger that the sides of the sol will be burst i out by the pressure of the cargo when the aus port of the water is taken, from the vatside of the hull. Tatan skipsare often lifted out on dry dlocks for repairi
