CONGRESS OF PANAMA.

NoNHn1OO w AANANIh
The following notice is translated from the
Gaceta de Colombia, the Government paper at b.
gotta. The interest about to be taken in that
Assembly by Foreign Powers is here more ex-
plicily stated, than We have seen it any where
else. 1t seems probable that all the European
Governments will have agents at Panama, and
it is favorable omen 10 find the Emperor of
Brazil joining in the measure. The following
notice, ii will be observed, is of date earlier
than what has been received, and before the
death of our excellent and deeply lamented
countryman, Mr. ANDERSON. The Gaceia
says:
"The Government is in daily expectation Of
receiving intelligence of the opening of the
Assembly. The Plenipotentiaries of Peru, Co
lombia, and the Republic Of Central America,
had already arrived in the Isthmus, and those
of Mexico, who were preparing to set out from
Acapulco, on the 18th or Goth Of April, must
have arrived there about the beginning OF May.
"Besides the States that form the Grand A
merican Confederation, other nations have sent
Plenipotentiaries 10 that Assembly. The United
States of North America, as was formerly stat
ed, have appointed for this purpose Mr.. AMBER
SON and Mr.. SERGEANT. The Emperor Of
Brazil has also sent Minister, the Common
dador BLANCARDI, who will speedily arrive in
the Isthmus. In addition to the Representa-
lives of those nations, who wish to take a part
in the discussions of the Confederates, in all
that relates to the various points left unsettled
by the law of nations, especially respecting the
relations between belligerents and neutrals,
Commissioner Of his Britannia Majesty has
gone to Panama, whose exclusive object will be
to assist with his counsels, and to see thatnoth-
ing be attempted, pre- judicial to the interests OF
Great Britain 1t is likewise known, that NJ.
VERvEER, colonel of the staff, in the service OF
His Majesty the King of the Netherlands, has
come to Panama, and although it is not stated
that he is invested with any official character,
it is very probable that some commission has
been entrusted to him similar to that given to
Mr.. DAwKfNs, the British Commissions"
The Congress, it will be recollected, has ac-
tually met since this publication, and adjourn
ed TO a more healthy position than Panama
The following translation of the official account
of the opening of the Congress is given by the
Baltimore Gazette, as being taken from the Ga
zette Extraordinary Of the Isthmus, of June
% 1926:
INSTALLATION OF THE GREAT A
MEXICAN CONGRESS.
This day may be called by excellence the
Day of America. Forever from to-day the ma
tons of this continent will enjoy, to It's full ex-
tent, political freedom, and individuals all the
liberty consistent with social Institutions "A
close and everlasting tie unites the four Repub-
lies of Colombia, Guatemala, Mexico, and Pc
ru. They offer each other mutual aid against
foreign oppression, and all who wish to usurp
their dear-bought rights. For the preserva-
lion of perfect equality, the Presidency OF the
Congress was conferred by lot, and 1t was de-
cided in the same way in what order the mem
bers should affx their signatures. The names
Of the most excellent Pedro Gaul, Colombian
Minister of State, and of Foreign Affairs; An
tonic Larazabal, penitenciario Of the holy cathe-
dral church OF Guatemala; d. Manual de Vi
daurre, President Of the Supreme Court OF re-
ru, and decorated with the medal bestowed on
the well-deserying of their country; u. Jose de
Michelena, Brigadier General IN the armies
of Mexico; Pedro Brioen-Mendez, Brlgadler
General in the armies Of Colombia, and
of the order of "Liberators" of Venezuela
and Cundinamarca; Pedro Molina, Plenlpo-
tertiary in Central America; D. Manual Pa
rez Zudela, Judge of the Supreme Court OF Re-
ru; and D. Jose Dominguez, Judge in the
Courts of Guanajato;--these names will be re-
peated with respect, as those OF the most Illus
trious defenders Of our freedom and indepen-
dence. Glory be 10 the God Of Justice, that
in compensation for our labors and servituee,
he has afforded us the means of firmly estab-
fishing our happiness!
