Panama Railroad contract and New Grenada work report

The Panama Railroad Company has contracted the section across the isthmus between the Chagres river and the bay of Panama about 21 miles, with Messrs. Tatieo and Trautwine as builders. They expect to break ground in December under Col. Hughes, with William Sidell as principal assistant and Mr S. to oversee civil engineering tasks. The New Granada government has offered facilities to accelerate the project. The Journal of Commerce notes the U. S. mail steamer Ohio arriving with Pacific mail and Panama news, while other reports describe gold discoveries and various occurrences along eastern ports, rail efforts, and a burglary in Seekonk.
