A Parliamentary paper containing correspondence respecting the affairs of the Suez Canal has been Issued. Among the documents is a report from Mr. Staud»n to Lord Derby, dated the 28th of March, 1878. Mr. Stauden states that last winter, in company with his French colleagues, MM. Freville and Spemcnt, he made a visit of inspection to the Canal, and had since returned to Paris to resume his duties on the managing committee of the company. The result of this inspection was to convince him that the Canal, properly speaking, as distinguished from the harbor ana roadstead, is in a thoroughly efficient working state, and that, with the addition of a few important improvements which are very desirable, if not necessary, it can be rendered quite capable of satisfying all demands that are likely to be made upon it by the navigation for some years to come. With respect to the possibility of the canal being blocked hy a sunken vessel, Mr. Standen reports that the chief engineer has turned his attention to this question. Be states that in the event of a vessel being sunk in mid-channel, he can dredge away a canal cf equal depth .outside it, and of sufficient width to allow the navigation to pass, in the space of some five or six days. With so 'speedy a remedy, the apprehensions of a possible blocking-up of the Canal In this manner lose much of their importance* and the idea of an attempt being made to blowup the banks is considered by the company's engineer as too absurd to bo entertained.
