LOUISIANA STATE BANK.-Mr Announcement
Fillmore has filed petition in the Fourth District
Court, aledging that the Louisiana State Bank has
forfeited. its charter by declaring a dividend, in
contravention of the clause enjonng that no dvi-
dend shall be declared except "of the profits &C.
cruing from the subscribed capital of said bank.
He charges that on the third of last February the
directors declared dividend, and that thereby tho
capital is now deficient over two hundred and
thirty thousand dollars that, in consequence, not
only are the stockholders injured, but the public
generally were deceived as to the condition and
standing OF the bank; and that thus the directors
weakened the ability of the institution to meet its
engagements and carry out the true ends of its
creation He offers to prove his allegations by the
circular which the recently-elected Board of hi.
rectors issued on the 18th of February, and calls
upon the defendant to or deny the facts therein
contained.
1t is clear that the honorable Attorney General
could not shut his eyes as to the remarkable circu
lar issued by the new Board of Directors As soon
as this official document appeared it became his
duty to pursue the course he has taken. 1t remains
to be seen, whether the facts of the circular can
be proved, and if so, whether the Supreme Court
for we suppose the case will be appealed if the
plaintiff maintains his action-will declare a for
ielfure on the grounds set forth in the petition.

Correspondence of the Crescentl

PANAMA, Feb. IA, 1S49.
Eds Crescent: | have arrived thus far ipoi, nv
journey, after much fatigue and trouble In the
course of ten days think shall have chance of
getting of from this place. on the brig Belfast,
which is to leave within that time. She will take
16 passengers, at 500 each. My expenses across
the isthmus, from Chagres to Panama, including
transportation of baggage, amounted to $50 Frofn
Chagres to Gorgona the route is by water up as
fine stream as ever was behed. From Gorgona,
four mules sufced to transport myself and baggage
paid $40 piece, but some of the passengers pro-
cured them as low as Sc. Indians, who do Just as
well, can be obtained cheaper than mules The
road one has to traverse is very unique in its way
being nothing more than narrow foot-wav, inter-
sected In many places by ravines ten or twelve feet
in perpendicular depth. These gnllies, however,
are crossed with remarkable facility and safety by
the mules.
At this point, every thing eatable commands
high price-four selling for $50 per barrel.
The ship Philadelphia left yesterday with 29O
passengers, and also an English bark with 225
travelling will be much cheaper by this route
when the mail line is in complete operation
A number of the Falcons passengers died here
of sickness, occssiofe1 by fatigue CONSEQUENT upon
crossing the isthmus on foot Notwithstanding this.
from all appearances, think Panama as healthy
place as there is in the world.
Among the many mpositiOns to which travellers
are subject, may mention that the passports re-
celved from the Mexican RI Consul, and for which
81 each were paid, are of no earthly benefit, as the
Consul was not authorized to give them. nc.
