PANAMA CANAL.
TO HAVE BEEN FLOODED YESTER. DAY. According to sovoral American citizens, who are travelling through Wellington from San Francisco to Sydney by tho Union Stonm Ship Company s steamer Moana, tho waters were to have been admitted tlio full length of the Panama Canal yesterday. This would probably moan that tho soo would bo let in at one end or the other (or both) to facilitate tlio work in other parts of tho canal. The admission of the water would give tho sides of the open cuts opportunity to settlo, after which a good deal of dredging would no doubt be necessary.
