AMERICAN PAPERS.

(From the Savannah Georgian, Sept.
5.)
" From Guatemala.—The schooner France:, front
Omoa, Bay of Honduras, arrived here on Saturday. In
her came passenger, P. P. Cagigao, Esq., bearer of des-
patches from the Government of Guatemala to Antonio
J. Canes, Esq., their Minister Plenipotentiary in this
country. Mr. Cagigao has in charge the recall of Mr.
Canes, who has been appointed Minister of Finance to
the Republic of Guatemala. The relations between the
United States and Guatemala being now settled, we under-
stand that a Charge d'Affaires merely will be sent out,
and that Mr. Ganzales, former Secretary of Legation, will
receive that appointment.
" Mr. Cagigao is the bearer of the charter granted by
his Government to the house of A. H. Palmer, of New
York, for cutting a canal from the Atlantic to the Pacific
Ocean ; but we understand that the conclusive privilege of
the right of toll, &c., is but for seven years from its com-
pletion, instead of 20, as stated in the northern papers.
The contractors have also the exclusive right of steam:boat
navigation during the above period ; and the canal is to
be commenced within ten months, and two years allowed
for its completion. It .is said that Colonel de Beneski,
the agent of the company, who negociated the contract,
receives 50,000 dollars for his services. Mr. Williang!s
(our Charge d'Affaires) influence with the (government
was of great service in this business.
(From the National Intelligence.)
" From Mexico, we learn that Commodore Porter was
about to take the command of the naval force at Vera. Cruz,
apartments having been provided for him, to guard against
the diseases of the shore in the Castle of St. Juan de
Ulloa, where it is as healthy as it would be on board
ship, until the marine shall be made ready for sea.
" The reception of Commodore Porter at the seat of
Government of Meiico has been of the most satisfactory
nature. The emoluments of his station are less than re-
ported, but still considerable—say 5,400 dollars per an*
num. The Government, moreover, understanding that in
entering the Mexican service, Commodore Porter relin-
quished of course 'an old claim which he bad upon the
Consulado of Havannah, agreed to apply to the
of
of Vera Cruz to place him in possession of a large
tract of land on the fine river of Guasacualaco. The (31°.
vemment of Vera Crus bas agreed to cede to the Com-
modore eleven leagues square, in the richest and most
beautiful part of the State. The tract contains about half
a million of acres, and the route of the Pacific, for which
a decree has recently been made, will pass through it.

"BALTIMORE, lei'
ORE, SEPT. 13.—We have observed, in seve-
ral Journals of the United States, various eztracte of
tors from South America, all tending to convey tile ide3,
that the Liberator Bolivar was aiming at universal pnwe*
in South America. These letters are written by Persti
who know nothing of the public life and private charse- et
of Bolivar; or, if they do, some pains are taken to forg
the one, and misrepresent the other. At the close of our
revolutionary struggle, the virtues of the revered
ington did not protect him from the foul aspersions of his
enemies, and an attempt at universal power was 01
the least of the calumnious charges brought against 1:10
by malignant demagogues. Can we expect an eleinNed
for Bolivar, whose whole course of conduct is mous'
upon that of the immortal Washington ?"
