Abstract
AS no telegram has been received from Dr. Schuster's party on its arrival at Singapore, we are compelled to estimate the date of its arrival by the telegram in yesterday's papers, which informed us that the Pera, in which vessel the Expedition was conveyed from Galle, arrived at Shanghai. The vessel was due there on the 3rd, and arrived on the 5th. Assuming all the delay to have occurred on this side of Singapore, Dr. Schuster's party would have reached that place on the 24th of March, which would give them ample time to reach Chulai Point and make their preparations, especially as the colonial steamer which has been detached for the service is very swift.
