FROM THE CAPE OF Coon HoPE.-The brig
Southerner arrived at Boston the morning of the
9TH inst, says the Traveller, from the Cape of Good
Hope, Feb. 18th. The country was generally quiet
under the English rule. paper of the 9th ult
mentions some disturbance beyond the boundary,
and says that country will require the utmost vigi
lance of government. From Mauritius, dates
have been received to Dec. 25th, which was the day
fixed for the emancipation of the slaves, in accord
ance with the orders of the French Republic. The
day was to be celebrated by the discharge of artil
lery, the singing Of TIE Deum, etc. The blacks, it
was supposed, would keep quiet, but pickets of so
men, with loaded muskets, were stationed at each
guard-house to meet any emergency. The Cover
nor had issued proclamation to the blacks, advis-
ing them by their conduct to show themselves
worthy citizens of the "Fraternal Republic. y
The arrival of the bark Kate Hastings, from Boston,
with the first cargo of American ice, occasions
considerable speculation in the papers.

REPORTED MASSACRE OF THE Two Sons OF
GEN PAEz, AND OF OTHER PRIsoNERs-It will
be remembered, says the N. Y. Journal of Com
merce, that some time in December last, the forces
of Monagas, President of Venezuela, captured the
naval and land forces of Gen. Paez, commanded
respectively by Battisti and Andrade, at Mara
cabo and Zulia, and transferred their prisoners,
about thirty in number. smong whom were two
sons of Gen. Paez, to the city of Caracas, where
they have since been confined. We saw to-day a
letter from Curacao, dated March 10th, in which
occurs the following paragraph: There is re-
port brought by the captains of this governments
boat and the Dorina,' that the prisoners in Carac-
cas- assassinated but no particulars are given
in relation to the catastrophe, nor has single let
Ter on any subject been received either from Porto
Cabello or Laguayra The captains of the two
mentioned vessels say, that on the arrival of the
English packet Lame, at Porto Cabello, the cap
tain of said packet publicly announced the fact o.
the massacre. We shall know the truth of the
story tomorrow by the Elena What a scanda

Arrival of the Crescent City at New York.

The Crescent City arrived at New York on the
morning of the 18th. Her news has been antici-
pated here by the arrival of the Northerner at
Charleston. The following from New Grenada,
Chill and Peru, we find in the N. Y. Sun:
New GRENADA.-The news of the appearance
of the cholera at Panama produced a great sensa-
ton at Santa Martha and Carthagena. Sanitory
measures were Immediately put in force. The
brig May Flower from Chagres was guaranteed
forty days.
la Prensa of Bogota contains an announcement
of the death of BENZ. A. Bidack, United States
Minister to Bogota.
The election of new President to succeed Gen.
Mosauera was to take place on the ID of March,
Gen. Lopez and Dr.. Cuervo were the two candi-
dates. DR.. Cuervo's chances were thought to be
the best.
CHILL-Congress has closed, and all political
excitement has thereby ceased.
The marriage of the American Minister, Seth
Barton, with Chillian Senorita, continued to be
the subject of conversation in all private circles.
Not being Catholic, Or as the Chillians call him,
hereto, the priests could not give their consent
standing this the marriage took place on the day
of St Innocente in the house over which the
American flag unfOlds.
All the foreign Ministers and members of the
| Diplomatic Corps, the Commodore and commanders
| of several American vessels OF war, and many
L
members of the Chillian Cabinet were invited but
| did not see fit to attend.
| Chillian affairs generally are in backward
state a higher duty is levied on all carriages and
carts passing between Valparaiso and Santiago
the effect of which is to lessen the number of pas
| sengers and injure the transportation of goods.
| This increase in duty has been compelled by a
great increase in public expenditures. The expenses
during the year have been 81 426 600 while for the
previous year it only amounted to SO, 10000
The prosperity of the country does not advance
but threatens to go backwards if the direction o
| the finances is not changed.
The commercial transactions have been more
| parayzed of late than formerly. The minerals o
Copiapo continue very rich; but, for a want o
workmen, they cannot be fully developed. Specu
lations and emigration to California still continue
PERU.-Peace is becoming more and more firml.
established every day. The quarrels Of forme
revolutions have given way to law and order anon
the inhabitants. Terrible suffering is produces
among the people in various departments in conse
fquence of the scarcity of food The Government
has sent forward large supplies for their relisf.

SLAVES FOR CALIFoRNIA.-The National Era
ian abolition paper at Washington says: We
are told that several slave droves have been sent
out from the South and that individuals as well as
companies, from that section, are taking slaves with
them, One company went through this city few
daSssknce with eight or ten slaves. We may state
also, on good authority, that arrangements are in
progress in this country for the establishment IN
California of press to advocate the pro-slavery
side of the Territorial question" The Era adds
that an antislavery paper will also shortly be es
tabished at San Francisco by Mr.. Crane, recently
of the Richmond Soulherner.
