Your last paper is very fully quoted by the French
journals, especially lR reference to to your ac-
couAts of the gold region In California. The fact
begins to gain believers, even among those who
are unwilling to believe. am glad to see your d.
rections, in reference to passage across the 18TH
mus but as have crossed the lshmus, and sailed
also around Cape Horn, my advice to all is to go
reund Cape Horn, unless they can make them
selves sure of passage Immediately after their
arrival at Panama, by an arrangement with the
ste amboat agent in New York for a passage from
Panama to California could no more be procured
in Panama than IN Canada; and person might as
well go TO Canada TO obtain vessel TO California,
as to Panama, except under positive arrangement,
providing tor one, before he leaves the United
States The expense OF living IN Panama n ex-

indeed, though less so than at Chagres; but the
dysentery will be likely to attack at least man
IN two and 1t is terribly fata--no assistance
of any kind--nurses, medical aid, or other
means beyond, possibly some medicine to
be obtained in Panama. Only blacks can
be hired, and at an enormous price, speaking
only the Spanish LANGUAGE, who will care no more
for a man than dog-and the climate is so pros
tratiDg that II is almost impossible tor the strong

Keep away from Chsgres and Panama, as you
would from an hospital filled with the small pox,
where there was no one to care tor you, sunless

taking guarantees therefor from the agents of the

Whether you land st Gorgona or Cruces Is a
matter of no Importance. Handed at Gorgona, and
went from there TO Panama; because the river was
there high and the water between Cruces and Cor
gopa rapid, so that saved one day by landing at
Gorgona--ior one day is ample to ride, or TO walk
with guide, from either Gorgona or Cruces to
Panama--and when the river is rapid. Il will take
nearly day for the negroes to pole a large boat,
heavily laden, from Gorgona to Cruces. II Is only
two or three miles further from Gorgona than from

We learn from Springfield that the Hon
JOS d. WELLS, late Lieut.. Governor, has
been appointed by the Governor and con-
firned by the senate, Canal Trustee, in
place of Col. Oakley, deceased. The APP
pointment gives general satisfaction. Gov.
Wells is an sJle lawyer, aud we are assnr'
ed. is man of iniomitable industry and en-.
ercy, and of the finest business qualihca-
lions. He will find that the faithful dis
charge of his duties will bring into exercise
all these qualities. The Office is no sine
cure. On the energy, tact, and talent Of
the state trustee alone can our people rely
for fair and just tariff of tolls, for just treat.
ment in reference to the purchase of their
homes on canal lands, and for a just and
economical administration of the canal fund.
40 that the state may enjoy the greatest be-
nefit from the completion of this great work
II must be ovious that the foreign trustee:
can have no other care in the matter thar
their own and the interest Of the foreign
bondholders: while for the protection OF a!
the cares, interests, and rights Of the state
and her citizens, our only hope is the state
trustee.

" ho PAYS {.

There have been petitions circulating
through town for several days past in favor
Of the passage by our legislature Of a"gene-
raj banking law" which has been generally
signed by the wings. The "many demo-
Gratis" in town who were said to favor banks
were found missing, as we were unable TO
see the name OF one on all the petitions we
examined. The democrats Immediately got
up a remonstrance, which all are signing.
But who is it that circulates these bank
petitions? Let il not be imagined for nc
ment that the wings here care enough about
banks to get up petition themselves and
circulate it. 1t was an emissary from a.
broad-probably one of a hundred agents
that are traversing the state on the same be-
siness-that brought these petitions here.
Who sent him9 And, as nobody in this coun-
try works for nothing, who pays him?

1t only remains to raise the stock and organ.

stock, or we may not have the bridge at al

the means will be forthcoming to proceed
Immediately and build the bridge on the

Gen. Shields.

II will we welcome news to many warm
friends in this region, that the brave and gal
LIANT Shields has been elected to the United
States senate for six years from the 4th Of
March next. It seems hard to discharge so
able and faithful a public servant as Judge
BREEsE has been. Always vigilant, always
attentive to his duties, enjoying in an unnsu'
al degree the respect, friendship, aud conf
dence of his fellow senator's, he could WELD
IN influence in favor OF his state that we can
look for in few others. But then Gen. S
had done the state some service, and the
legislature thought he deserved at least this
token at their hands of their appreciation Of
that service. But strong as were the claims
Of Gen. S. Oh account of his deeds Of noble
daring OH the bloody fields Of Mexico, it
would be doing him great injustice to say
that these constituted his only claims. Gen.
S. has been as advantageously tried in civil
capacities as he has been in Military. As
Auditor Of State, as one of the Judges Of our
supreme court, and as Commissioner of the
General Land Office, he invariably dischar'
ged his duty with marked and distinguished
ability, showing that he possessed in an EN-.
inem degree all those qualities that make up
the statesman.
Gen. S. is an lrishman by birth, and isin-
debted to his own address and talents alcne
for the high aud honorable position he has
attained among his fellows. His rapid ele-
walton 10 another harry iIlns iratien Of tho
beneficial and equable operation Of our glo-
rions institutions, under which the road to
preferment and distinction is as open to the
&,oor emigrant boy as TO the presidents son.

There is a beautiful little fight as it stands
going on among the wing leaders at Wash
ington in reference to the organship for the
new administration. The old wings of course
wantthe National Intelligencsr, while Gen.
Taylor, it appears, wants an organ that shall
be, like himself, pledged to no party. A
Washington correspondent of the Ohio
Statesman thus speaks Of this interesting
family quarrel:
! One very Interestingly topic ofconversation,
! speculation, and no little excitement, is that
OF the organship under the new admdistra-
| ton. Already two rival interests begin to
array themselves against one another. The
wings OF the North abide by their ancient
co-laborer, Gales. For many years, the
manufacturers Of the East have zealously
sustained the Mieiiigencer. Donations, sub
Scriptions, for one, ten, twenty, even hun
dred years, have been, from time To time,
RENTED, in order TO sustain the venerable
organ. desperate effort is progress to
resuscilatc this aged almonee Of the party
But, then, per contra, Mr.. Bullitt, Of the
New Orleans Pic0yune, has issued his pri-
va.e circular, invoking the aid Of his friend,
in the establishment Of al organ. Gallagh-
er, Of the Richmond Republican, tits said is
TO be associated with Mr.. Bullit, in this i'm.

northern wings are no little alarmed. They
aver that the new admin stration, il Bullitt
iuscceeds, will be call South" aud swear, BY
all the gods, that it must not be so, but tina,
