To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


The acquisition of California gave the United States an exceedingly remote possession (there is no colony an3r^vhere so really remote to-day). With this territory some kind of connection was imperative and the administration, which was so liberal in helping the Collins Line to beat the British, contracted with the Pacific Mail Steam- ship Company, formed in 1847, ^^^ ^ service from Panama to Astoria and from New York, Charles- ton, and New Orleans to Havana, from which port the company already
...had a connecting line Line Traffic and its Extension 131 to Chagres (Colon), thus completing the connection between the coasts. The first steamer left New York October 6, 1848, and the company soon had six of the finest steamships afloat. The speed from Panama to San Francisco was more than ten miles per hour. Thus the United States had line traffic of first-class character connecting its remote coasts before it had a good American line to Europe. At Panama it connected with the Pacific Steam Navigation Company, giving service to Peru and Chile, so that before the middle of the century the Pacific had at least 5, 000 miles continuous steam line traffic.
