4 THE WEEKLY Chronicle anb Sentinel. From the N. O. Picayune. Ist inst. Letters from Panama. We have received by the Alabama letters from Freaner at Panama, on bis way to Cali fornia. We have only room to-day for the following, which cannot but be read with great interest. Special Correspondence of the Picayune. i Panama. March 10, 1849. Eds. Picayune.— Last evening 1 arrived in this | ancient and dilapidated city, after a rather pleasant , than otherwise trip across the Isthmus. After reading the horrible accounts which had been published in I the United States of the difficulties and dangers ot a . trip from Chagres to this point, I was prepare or , something extraordinary, and I must confess t a have been most happily disappointed. It is true tnat . the houses of the inhabitants are generally cane with | thatched roofs, and the banquets in front of the doors i are not equal to those of Camp or St. Charles streets ; but if these people see proper to live in them, it is their I hardly thmk any one will say that they are not comfortable, nor that they are not I wrought with a great deal of mgenmty We could hardlv expect the inhabitants at some three months notice'tn have fine large hotels, with accommodating landlords and smiling servants, ready to accommodate us with every thing we desired. At Chagres ami Gorgona I found several eating houses, which an swered very well for a new country. They gave us good breakfast and dinner at moderate price, and thanked us for our custom. We left Chagres on the 4th inat. in canoes for Gor ina preferring to take our chance with the “ native genius” to risking our live<s in the Orus. Our party consisted of Messrs. Baird, Sheldon, Lattimer, Coul ter, Booker, Sullivan, Dr. Bumsted, and myself, with between four and five thousand poun4s of baggage. We hired these canoes, with three men in each to pole them up, for which we paid 835. This, at first seems to be a high price, but upin a more minute ex amination, I find that the boatmen do not receive more than about 81 per day each for the use of their canoe and their labor; and must say that 1 never have in any country seen men labor as hard. Our trip up the Chagres river was a very pleasant one. We were three days in making it, on account cf our baggage, but it can be maae very easily in a good c*noe from Chagres to Gorgona in one day. The scenery along the Chagres river is very beau tiful indeed. The high rolling mountains covered with masses of evergreen foliage, interspersed with the cocoa, banana, bamboo, pineapple and a great va riety of blooming shrubbery, which charged the at mosphere with its pleasant and regaling perfumes— the cool and exhilerating breeze of the land and sea were wafted upon us from the coves and gaps of the hills and mountains which rise high above the banks of the river on either side, while we amused ourselves with shooting from our canoe the iguano, (a species of alligator) turtle, pavo, (wild pea-fowl) macaw, par rots of every size and description, and many other birds of beautiful plumage and fine meat, which none of us had ever seen before and do not know the names of. There were a great many persons who took pleasure in killing the monkeys, with which the woods are filled, but there were none of our party who felt a disposition to kill an animal so much re sembling a human being, that was of no use to us ex ce 11» feed the boatmen on; and if all the persons travelling up the river entertained the same feeling towards the monkey race that our party did, they might frolic in the tree top* and swin*' by their tails to all eternity without interruption. However, there seems a most deadly hostility existing between the monkeys and the negroes of the Isthmus—whether it is an honest rivalry as to appearance, or a*jealousy and antipathy natural to the two races, I am not able to determine; but certain it is, that as soon as they come in sight of one another the monkey commences chattering and jumping from limb to limb, without pretending to retreat, and the negroes will swear un til they work themseives into a perfect rage. If there are two or three white men in the canoe the mon key will retreat instantly, and if one of them falls a victim to a white man’s gun, the negroes will stop their canoe and go ashore through the thickest vines or swamp and matted undergrowth to get him. They rejoice over him as much as an Indian would over a fallen foe, and never fail to make a dinner or supper off of him, which they seem to relish with most extraordinary gusto. It would be hard to tell which party has the merits of the quarrel on their side, but my own opinion is, that if either have the advantage of intellect, the odds are decidedly in favor of the monkeys. Undoubtedly the monkeys are the aristocracy of the Isthmus. After three days’ pleasant journeying we reached the town of Gorgona, a small town on the Chagres river, and about twenty-five miles from this place. I immediately set about finding transportation for Pa nama. On examination, what had been represented to us as plenty of millss and transportation, I found to be a few poor broken-down carrion horsts, and ap parently scarcely able to drag themselves along. I was unwilling to trust my baggage on such animals as and therefore engaged men to firing it. I succeeded in getting it all over —about 4000 pounds —in good order and without any trouble or lots. Our whole party walked in preference to riding animals who were liable to break our necks at every step And thus party, bsggage, &C. all arrived in goo 1 condition, health and spirits, as I believe all our ship’s company did, entirely disappointed as to the difficul lies of the route. The trail from Gorgona to this place, is through an entirely billy country, and per haps some of the fancy gentlemen of Royal street, or the swells of Broadway, would call it a “ dem rough road,” and swear there was nothing on earth equal lo it; but I can assure vou that it is.not wbat it has been represented. The natural obstruc ions are very easily overcome, and a man accustomed to a frontier life would never complain. A very little improvement would tn ike it a good pack-mule road. From what 1 saw of the country, I feel assured that I could select a rood which, when cleared out, would not exceed thirty thirty-five miles in distance, and would ena ble pei- >ii« with any amount of baggage to cross the Isthmus in two days. The land on the Isthmus is as fine as any person could desire for cultivation. I was attracted off the road by a bush which I found to be a spontaneous growth of cotton. 1 picked all 1 could find open, and herewith enclose it to you, just as 1 pickedit with the seed. You will see on examination that the staple is of an extraordinary quality. You will please enclose the seed to Dr. Pugh, of Canton, Miss., whom I un derstand has for some years given much attention to the improvement and cultivation of the great staple of the South. The much talked of navigation of the Chagres river by small steamboats is a humbug; and any man who could entertain for a moment or promulgate such an idea is either a fool ora knave. The steamer Orus has been up as high as fifteen miles, but it would have been impossible for her to come up any higher, unless she could have run over ten inches of water, and I doubt not whether there was that much, in many places there was difficulty in dragging the ca noe over the rapids. I have but little doubt that the Isthmus of Panama will become the soil of the United States, and that be fore many years. For two reasons lam induced thus to think—one reason ia the fondness of the na tives for the Society of Americans, and the other is, that nearly every acquaintance I have made among the younger portion of the population have been solic iting me to teach them the words and tune of “ Old Dan Tucker.” Uncle Sam, through good sense or commisseration may be induced to yield up soil which he has occupied, but "Old Din 'Pucker,” prhen he gets fairly located, creates a moral impress ion which neither time nor circumstances can oblite rate. The natives of the Isthmus are as harmless, inoffen sive, hard-working and honest a people as ever I have seen, and much more so than I was prepared to find them. They labor with an assiduity which many of our own people might imitate with credit to them selves as much as we are disposed to underrate them; but I have little doubt that they will in a short tune, become dishonest, lazy and dissipated ; if our people continue to cross here in such numbers. I have seen many people treat them cruelly and then cheat them out of a portion of their labor. 1 have seen but few handsome women on the Isthmus; indeed there are but few who could be considered good-looking; the men are small in stature, but no one ever looked upon a more able bodiedor finer muscled set of men ; indeed they are perfect models in form. Yours, Fbkankk. Panama, March 20, 1349. Editors Picayune.— Mr. Byrne is about leaving hare for Washington City with despatches, and 1 avail myself of the opportunity to i Imp you a line.

Capt Budd, reached this port early yesterday morning, from C hag res. via Havana, having left the former port on the 26th March, and the latter on the first of April. The Northerner arrived at Chagrea from N York on the 14th ult.. and after landing her passengers and freight. Capt. Budd proceeded across the Isthmus to Panama, to await the ar rival of the steam ship California from San Francisco, which vessel wm daily expected. The C. had not reached Panama on the 26 th. lhe day Capt. Budd left, for the reason, doubt less, that there was no coal at San Francisco the vessel freighted with it not having arrived there in time. Capt Budd came over from Panama to Cha gres in 24 hours, and has probably made the shortest passage from lhe Pacific to Charleston on recon!, having accomplished it in eleven days, including two days that he remained in Havana. The stoain ship Crescent City, left Chagres a 3 P M. the 25th ult. for New York, touched at Havana, which port she left at 44 P M. on the Ist inst in company with the Northerner, parting with each other on the 4th. at 3 P. M., Charleston light bearing N. N. W. 95 miles distant. The Northerner saw the steam ship Isabel off Cary si ord Reef at 11 o’clock. A. M. on Tues day. A schooner had arrived at Ch tgres with pas senger* from the steamer Galveston. The Hr. steam ship Peru arrived at Panama on the morning of the 23d ult. in ten days from Callao. With thirty passengersand a quantity •fspecie. The Br. steam ship Medway touched at Cha gres on the 25th uh., from the Br. West Indies, from thence she proceeded to Havana, and left that port at 2. P. M. on the Ist inst. for Mobile Point. On the 12lh March, when the Northerner ar rived off Chagres. a meeting of the passengers was held, and the following resolutions unani mously adopted: HisolMii. That the passengers on board the Steam ship Northerner, on her passage Irom New York to Chagres. are h.ghlv p eased with her as a sate, comurodiou* and comtortabH ocean steamer, and cordially recommend her as such lo the travelling public. JUjsgrrJ. Thai we lender to I apt Budd and his Officer*, our sincere thanks lor their skil ful attention lo their duties eounectud with me ship and their kind attention to the passengers. Arseir.a. That we « ,*h all success to tne ownsrsof the Northerner, and health and P™*’ penty to ber otheers and crew, with a speeuj scvage to the United States. fcLietd. That a copy ot these Resolutions, signed in oar behalf by the Chairman aretan .be banded to Capt Budd , and dint ho be requested to hare them inserted m the pub- Ik prmtsof Charleston and New York on his arrival there respectively. We are much indebted to a correspondent at Havana—w do hat not favored u* with hit ad- dress, as it deprives us of the means of return ing the lavor —with some particulars in addi tion to what is above written. The steamship Crescent Citv arrived at Cha gjes on the morning of Saturday. 24th March, making the passage from New York to that port in 8 days and 18 hours. She landed 350 passengers, and left for Havana on the 251 h, at 6 p. m. with 20 passengers. The steamship Oregon arrived at Panama on the 24th of February, and saifed for San Francisco on the 15th of March, at 6 o’clock A. M. with 250 passengers, leaving about 800 at Panama, awaiting conveyance. Since that time about 530 more have arrived at Chagres. The latest news from San Francisco was brought by the Belfast, arrived at Panama— dates not mentioned. The passengers by the Crescent City char tered canoes to take them up to Gorgona, 45 miles dislant from Chagres, for §7 each, with all their baggage. The road from Gorgona to Panama, a distance of 21 miles, is in very good order. Baggage is taken across at the rate of £6 per 100 pounds, and Capt. Stoddart had heard of no accident having occurred on the road. Provisions were plenty at Panama. Board could be had at $1 20 to $1 50 per day, and those disposed to market and cook for them selves, could, with a little management, support themselves at 50 cents oer day. American Eagles at Panama were worth SB, in change; half eagles $4; half dollars 40 cis.; five franc pieces pass for ten one dime pieces, a dime passing for an eighth of a dollar. Doub loons are worth sl7. The British steamer Ecuador arrived at Pa nama on the 23d ult. at 5 A. M. with a few pas sengers, and one million dollars in gold bars, on English account. To Capt. Budd and our correspondents we are indebted for Havana papers to the Ist inst inclusive, and the “ Panama Star” of the 17th ult. The latter is a neat little sheet of some fifteen by nine, handsomely printed, and with its mot to of ‘-Press onward.” will doubtless soon ex pand to a more respectable size. The Star says: “We are happy to say that the meeting of last week, held by the Ameri cans awaiting passage here, to put down a sys tem of fraud and speculation in the prices to California, had the effect to reduce very consid erably the rates first asked, and to prevent spec ulation in tickets. Os the numerous persons who signed, we have heard of but one who proved faithless to his word, bis signature and his honor.” Beautiful Extract.—The influence of Christianity on society is not exerted through the cannon of the warrior, and the despatches of the statesman, but in the sweet breathings of the truth that come on the opening petals ol the breast of infancy, like spice- laden zephyrs from the land of the blest—in the gentle words of love lhet fall in dewy freshness on the wonder ing ear of childhood, from grey haired sires and sweet voiced matrons—in the nameless tellings of high and holy things, wrapped in the deep, unutterable voices of the ancient eternities that come to the silent ear of youth, before the din and strife of the babbling world have stunned these inner senses of the soul—in the longing and wistful thoughts of things of deep, abyssmal mystery that steal into the soul in its lonely musings in the solitary chamber—in the deep hush of the moaning forest—in the awful si lence of the hollow midnight —in the season of gloomy doubt and frantic efforts to scale the prison walls of mystery and darkness tiiat rise and close in encircling silence around all—in limes of heart-sickness and disappointment, when reaching forth the hand of warm, confid ing trust, it grasps the cold and slippery skin of the adder—it is then that Christianity, with its wonderful tellings of infinite things, comes with apocalyptic splendor and power, and revealing itself to the soul, creates those martyr spirits that stump their lineaments on the enduring rock.— Rev. T. V. Moore. A Boston company has recently put in op eration an extensive steam flouring mill on the Eastern Railroad wharf in Boston, of which the Journal gives a detailed description, 'i’he building is of granite, five stories high, and contains twelve run of stone, six for the man nfiwture of flour and six for corn meal. Grain is unloaded from vessels opposite the building and by means of an elevator is conveyed to one of the upper stories. The mill is capable of manufacturing and packing from eight to nine hundred barrels ot flour and corn meal per day, with the labor of only twenty-five men. The machinery is of the latest improve ment and the process adopted not only econo mizes time and labor, but is well calculated to improve the quality of the flour and meal manufactured. The steam engine which drives this mill is said to present an important im provement in the application ofsteam by which its force upon the piston is increased, while it is diminished upon the boilers, a desideratum which has been sought after. A Noble Bird.—A gray eagle was killed some days ago by Mr. Clement S. Moore, of Shelby, (says the Shelby county, Ky., News,) which measured 7 feet 9 inches from tip to tip of its wings; each claw, spread as in walking, was 8j inches in diameter; and its beak was 2 inches it: length. The editor of the News has a quill from this” bird of Jove” Which is 2 feet 2 inches in length. Culture and Manufacture of Mustard Mustard is one of the most profitable crops of the farmer. The method ol treating this crop, though simple, is not generally under stood by our farmers. Nor is it known to all that there is a constant demand at the highest market price at the mustard mills in this city Messrs. Thornton Grinsted, proprietors of the steam mustard mills, No. 28 Bullitt street, Louisville, Ky., informs us that they are una ble to obtain a full supply of seed for manufac turing. They have handed us the following directions for its cultivation. Adcice to Farmers how to Plant Mustard Seed. Plant the seed in hills precisely the same as corn, three feet apart —not more than four plants in a hill. Il has been known to do bet ter with only plants. Sow early in the spring. Keep your plants free from weeds, and run your cultivator through, after the plant begins to grow, two or three limes, according to your land. In this neighborhood, we had twenty bushels to the acre grown last year—so lbs. io the bushel. Massachusetts Humane Society.— This So ciety was established in 1791 ; the whole prop . erty belonging to it amounts to $27,000. in vented in bank stock. Mass. Slate stock,’ and other securities, the income of which is expen ded principally in awarding medals, money and certificates to men who have from time to lime perilled their lives in the cause of hu manity In 1847 the society expended SSOOO in stationing eighteen life boats on different parts of the coast. These boa’s are furnished with India rubber canvass cylinders or floats inside and out; and at certain stations on the exposed beaches, rockets for throwing lines to stranded ships have been or are about being established, lhe intention being to provide a communication between the wreck and the shore, whereby a surf boat can be hauled oft’al tunes to save the perishing mariner. They have thirty-five life and surf boats, of various sizes, an J adapted to various locations, some in harbors .nd some on exposed beaches; but as they are al! liable to be tilled by lhe surf, and io be capsized on the beaches, they ex press a wish that all the men belonging to the crews could be supplied with life preservers, that they may not be intimidated so easily. They wish to provide also to each one an India rubber cloth shirt, fitting close to the throat, to the wrists and to lhe body, yet so elastic that the limbs may be perfectly free, and to be furnished with air tubes or compartments, to sustain them, incase of being capsized. The Society has petitioned lhe legislature of the Slate for an appropriation of $2 500, to be used to supply the above mentioned articles. Great Rorkery.—One of the heaviest rob beries of late date, w as perpetrated in St. Louis on the 22d ult. The banking house of Win Ni*bett& Co. was broken into at night, througn a door leading into the Perpetual insurance Company, and rubbed of S4OOO in silver. SISOO in gold, and from $ 15.0(H) to $20,000 in bank notes, besides a tin box of the Citizens' Insurance Company with all its valuable con tent* The npney had been placed there on deposit The burglars appeared to have work ed the greater part of the night, and to have finally been surprised and left in haste with their booty. The safe containing lhe valuables was entered with a crowbar through the cellar. The robbery threw the whole city in.o excite ment, from its daring nature. Four persons were arrested and lodged in jail on suspicion, but nothing against them was elicited. The Pittsburgh Gazelle states that the loss of Messrs. Morehead, Copeland & Co . whose extensive Colton Factory in Allegheny was recently destroyed by fire, was $80,600, only $37.0(H) of which was covered by insurance. Lhe small amount of insurance is accounted for from the fact that since lhe late riots, the Pittsburgh offices have refused to renew poli cies on factory properly except at ruinous rates. British Army and Navy.—the number of men proposed to be maintained in lhe army estima es of lasi year, was 113.847. and the amount to be provided for their charge, was 3.836.880/. The number of men proposed in the estimates of the present year is 103.254. and lhe amount required for their charge is 3,655.588/. In the navy estimates of 1848. the number of men was nominally fixed at 43 0(H). with a net vote, for all charges, of 6,507.829/. In lhe same estimates of 1849. the number of men is 39,130, with a proposed net vote of 6.113.540/. The total projected saving, there fore. amounts to 772 923/ . and lhe gross pro jected reductions to 1U.593 men in one ser vice, and 2.870 in the other.— London Times, of Ammfxation of the Punjacb.—General Na pier. who has been appointed to the cotntnaud of the army against the Sikhs, has published n letter in the London Times in favor of con quering and annexing the Punjaub. He says no permanent peace can be made with the Sikh nation, and if the British army were to retire to the ’eft bank of the Sutlej, a frontier of 600 miles would hare lo be defended against the most tierce and skillful adversaries. An army of 30.000, in his opinion, could not do it. To abandon the lint of the Suilej would be a disgraceful defeat in the eyes of ail Asia, and defeat is fraught with more danger m India than m Europe. —No choice is left but to ad vance. From Haiti. —The schooner Uneco from Cape Haytien. March 14th. arrived at this port this morning Accounts received by her re present that President SoioQue was levying an armv of all capable of bearing arms, who were marching to the frontier to attack the Domini cans. A battle will probably soon take place. A tester dated March 9th. say.:—"‘The Pres idea*, is making a campaign against the Do minicans Ail the troops that could be mus tered have been already marched for that part of the island. Tne clerks from most of the Mores have been obliged to go. This measure has. uo doubt been resolved upon by the Pres ident in consequence of the acknowledgment of the independence of the Dominican* by France and Kngland. Small Pox in Cass* XV e find the following notice of the disease prevailing at the Iron Works in Cass county ’ in the Standard, which we publish for the in formation of the public. We are not disposed to believe from the representations of Mr. Cooper that it is small pox : Small Pox.—Our citizens generally have settled down in the opinion that this disease, in a mild form is now prevailing in this county— and many of them are taking the usual precau tion to secure themselves. At the last account, about 30 cases were reported as existing at the Iron Works of Messrs. Cooper & Wiley.— None of the cases have yet proven fatal; and we hope very soon to announce to our read ers its entire disappearance from our coast. We learn also, that one case of the Small Pox is reported at Atlanta, but have not heard of its prevalence in the city beyond that. We understand from a note received in this town from Dr. Hamilton, that Dr. Maltbie is now confined to his room in Cartersville with Small Pox. We can assure our country friends that there is no Small Pox in Cassville, yet; and that our citizens are using all precaution to keep it out of the town. We received on Tuesday evening, the fol lowing letter from Major Cooper, from which it will be perceived that he is still incredulous with regard to the existence of the Small pox. We profess to know but little of this disease ourself, but we have been informed by Physi cians that there are two kinds of Small Pox, differing only in grade, called distinct, and confluent. May it not be the former ? To the Public.— lron Works, Ga., April 2, 1849.—Last week the undersigned submit ted Dr. Maltbie’s opinion in regard to the dis ease prevailing here, called by some Small Pox, and promised to advise the public pro mol ly of any evidence he might obtain shewing me true character of the disease. He invited a Physician of Marietta to come. He did come; but from the history of the cases given by Mr. Stroup, he became apprehensive and declined to go into the room where any of the sick were. He saw a convalescent man at the distance of a few feet, who was called to his door. From these data he reports it Small Pox. He never saw a case of Small Pox be fore. Dr. Hart calls it Small Pox. He also has never seen Small Pox before. The under signed has invited the skill of the best Physi cians in this vicinity and Augusta, and he will faithfully give the public all the information he may obtain ; he leaves every one to form his own opinion, and to act on his own sense of security. He will use every precaution to ar rest the progress of the disease, and will give from lime to time a true report of its locality, progress and termination. Up to this day ihere have been 30 cases, exclusive of those which occurred in my family in January and February last. None fatal or threatening death. The worst cases have recovered or are convalescent. The average period of dura tion of the cases, counting from the day the pa tient says he is sick until he is able to go about his room, is twelve or fourteen days; the long est case three weeks. The first occurrence of ’.his eruptive disease was in my family, in Janu ary and February last—six rases in number, all of which recovered in ten or twelve days, without a Physician, and by no remedies ex cept Castor Oil and Spirits of Turpentine com bined, and occasional use of warm teas. 'I he next case was that of Mr. Leydon. at the Fur nace, attended by Dr. Maltbie. He recovered without difficulty, and attracted no notice ; then arose Bird Tracey’s and negro boy Jackson’s cases, attended by Dr. Hart. The develop ment in these cases gave rise to the suggestion of Small Pox. The undersigned is no Physi cian, and never saw a case of Small Fox, un less he has now. He has been with ail the cases here since January, except one, (Mr. Strain’s.) He has administered and nursed, day by day and night by night, from the day the rumor started. He is still in daily attendance on the sick—three-fourths of whom have had no Pliy sician, and no treatment, save that which the undersigned, aided by Mr. Welch, (Manager at the Furnace) and the clerks have given.— We were induced to this by the fact that the alarm of Small Pox deprived the sick of all medical aid and also of nurses ; we believed also, and yet believe, that it is not Small Pox, and that the simplest treatment is the best. In Donohoo’s family, his wife was brought to childbed whilst her husband was sick in the same room ; she took the disease immediately, and at four days after the birth it was fully de veloped on her ; eight days have elapsed, and she seems to be doing as well as others, nurses freely, and has but little fever. About this case we have had and yet have, great concern. I’he panic has deprived her of ev> rything a female should have in such trials. She is with out doctor and without nurse. These facts appear to us: Ist. There has been no death. 2nd. The patients, so far, all recover irre spective of difference of treatment. 3d. Some 20 or 25have progressed withon a doctor being called, treated as I treated my children, and seem to do as well or better than those to whom a doctor was called ana more treatment was given; these cases in symptoms, form progress and appearance, appear to be the same with that in my family. Two errors may be corrected : Ist that I sent my family to Marietta to escape. Not so —every child I sent there had it before leav ing. Mrs. Cooper moved there three weeks before any rumor of small pox, to school the children. 2nd. The statement that this disease was brought here by a man from the North or West, is certainly a mistake. The disease here, must be of atmospheric origin, and could not have come by contagion. Whilst we are unchanged in our opinions, as regards the public and others, we are acting on the opinion of others that it is small pox, and shall do so. I fit is we prefer it to measles or hooping cough, and but for the name all would look on the majority of the cases in the like manner. Mark A. Cooper. The British Admiralty have resolved on an other arctic expedition, in search of the missing one under Sir John Franklin. The Noria Star, a frigate in ordinary at Sheernesß, is filling out, and will start for Baftiti’s Bay in six weeks. Connecticut Election.—The reports this morning are a little more favorable so far as the Legislature is concerned. The Whigs it is said, have certainly elected 13 of the 21 Sena tors, while the House stands 106 Whigs, 95 Democrats and 13 free soil members. Ston ington, Wilton, East Haven. Middleberv, War ren and New Canaan, to be heard from.— These towns in 1848 elected 6 Whigs and 1 Democrat. If they do as well this year the Whigs will have a majority in both branches of the Legislature.— Com. Adv. The Washington correspondent of the New’ York Courier says the Secretary of lhe Trea sury has directed the customs officers appoint ed under the act extending the revenue laws over California, to rendezvous at St Louis be tween lhe 20th instant and Ist of May, to be escorted by a military force to their destination at San Francisco, from which point lhe deputy collectors for Monterey, San Diego, &c. will embark. The difficulty of procuring transpor tation from Panama, and lhe necessity for lhe pr sence of these otficers, have rendered this step imperative for lhe protection of the public interests. The alleged death of Mr. B. A Biblack, U. S. Charge at Bogota, on the 6th of January, is evidently false, as our telegraphic correspond ent stated yesterday. His last letter to bis fami ly is dated January 12, and it stales his health tube excellent. The Bogota papers up to January 27th contain no mention of such an event. Indemnity for False Imprisonment.—The Legislature ol Massachusetts has adopted are solution. paying a man named Zebulon Payne, five hundred debars for his time and services in the Slate Prison, under an erroneous con viction. From Bahia.—By the schooner Isaac Frank lin dates from Bahia to Feb. 15 have been re ceived W hen the I. Franklin left, the authorities of Bahia were making preparations for a suppos ed outbreak ot the republicans, which it was rumored would take place on the following Tuesday. Tl»e cannon had been taken from the arsenal, and mounted in the streets, and other preparations made. The republican had no leaders of note or organization, and would probably be easily overcome. At a town about fifty miles from Bahia, an out break of tne republicans occurred, but it effec ted nothing. From Venezuela.— The schooner J. P. Lof land, from Porto Cabello, March Ist, arrived at this port this morning. W e learn from a passenger that all was apparently calm in Ven ezuela. For the moment, the Monagas Gov ernment was supreme, but no one could tell how lung it would last, as all sorts of intrigues w ere going on. Boston Traveller. 4lh ins/.

Other medicines purify the blood already m circu lation, leaving the fountain-head untouched; so that the good effect cannot be lasting. But Dr. Peters' Pills produce perfect health and cleanliness in the region of the chyle, of which the b'ood is made; and hence the vital fluid is filtered —and flows in a state of purity from its very source —which ensures a permanency of health. J>r. Peters' Pills stand alone as a positive substi tute for Calomel and Blue Pills ; for they act like magic on the Liver, and remove all superfluity of bile with a certainty that is beyond question, and never ends tn disappointment. Indeed, whenever Calomel has failed to dislodge the Bile, Peters’ Pills have at once effected it. And hence —since their fame has been established —Mercury has been but rarely re sorted to for that purpose. For sale in Augusta, by the following Agents: Haviland, Risley & Co., W. K.
