Very Late from the Paclfc-Arr1val of the
Steamship Oregon at Panama-News from
Chasres, &c.
Our advices from Panama are of the 18th, San
Bias OF the 18th, and Mazatlan OF the lst ul.
Those from Panama reached this city yesterday,
in the following telegraphlc despatch:--
Nsw ORLEANS, March 10, 1919
The steamer Oregon arrived at Panama, on the 2sth
Of February.
The Oregon is the second of Messrs. Howlano
& Asplnwali's Pacific mail steamers. She left
here in December; touched at Rio de Janeiro, was
detained there several days; went through the
Straits; touched at Valparaiso, Calao and Payta;
and reached Panama on the 2Sth ult This places
her on par, IN speed, with her mate, the splendid
steamer California. She is commanded by Capt.
Pearson, and Immediately takes her place IN the
line, to run between Panama and San Francisco.
The accounts from San Bias state that the mail
steamship California had arrived at that place
The following is an extract Of letter to VIM.

1t appears by the intelligence from Mazatan,
that tranquility had been completely re.establsh-
ed. Some dissatisfaction had been excited among
the inhabitants by an attempt to introduce copper
money.
Additionally to the above, we take the following
from the New Orleans Crescent, of the 18th inst:
The schr w H. Hazard, Capt Saunders arri-
we'd last evening, from Chagres, having lett that

on the 18th. The same gentleman reports about
three hundred passengers at Panama, and one
ship, name unknown, was to leave Panama about

There had been no later arrivals from the Ell Do
