Our Isthmus Correspondence.
PANAMA, N. G., March "a, 1850.
arrival of the British Steamer Important from,
Ec~0dor-Ihe Effect Of the Late Emcute in
Panama.
The British steamer has just cast anchors A.
M.-and this msment my messenger leaves for
Chseres, to overtake the Empire City. The news
by the British steamer will not be In town for ten
hours yet. This Is unfortunate, since the report,
or rather the intelligence of revolution at Quay
aqull has been here come days The result Is
looked Tor with interest and impatience
very curious move ID on foot here, among the
natives. The present acting governor. Diez, du-
ring the recent troubles with the Americans,
pursued, ON all occasions, a pacific course, and,
as is presumed by many, he has shown
symptoms OF vascillation and great want of de-
cIsioB Cf character. This seems 10 be the fault
with regard 10 the opinions OF the higher class,
while the lower order censure the concihating po-
hey o his adminlstTstion and aver that he ought
10 hight, giving them an opportunity TO display
their patriouc ardOr
The natives are deeply incensed against the
Americans, nor do they take much Precaution how
TO show their ll-feeling when chance offers
their hatred Of people who will trampe upon
their laws.
Arrival OF the Tennessee.
lFr,m the Panama Star, March ls.l
The steamship Tennessee, Capt Cole, arrived at
this port on Tueeosy morning last, 81 days from,

| deTanged, in consequence of which she was de-
Ia four hve running days IN the Straits. She
| stopped sixteen days at Rio Janeiro, and ten al
| Valparaiso. As she was leaving the latter port
| the steamship Sarah Sands was coming IN; so we
may confidently look for that vessel at this port IN
| a lew days. The Tennessee brings no news as to
| the Whereabouts of the Isthmus.
Tine First Blood.
The time we have long dreaded At length
has come Last night, about TO- o'clock. when
u young American, named Thomas FIN
nigan, was quietly entering the house which
he occupied, together with number OF his
friends on the plaza Senta Anna, he was assaulted
10y about fifty armed SpaBisrds and natives, who
hrst shot him with musket IN the shoulder, where
the ball lodged, and Then, as he fell, showefed up
on hlm mlssiels OF every description accompanying
their attack with venomous oaths and exc
crsuons. He would undoubtedly have been
been killed, had not the approach OF few
Americans frightened the cowardly assasslns
from their bloody intent. number Of other
| Anne TlcHns were seriously injured last night, by
| blows from clubs and stones, given by wretches
wko way. y.laid them in the dark AZ different tunes
Large gangs of these internal mlscreants paraded
the II and squares OF the suburbs during the
night, breathing hatred and defiance to the Amer-
| 4glle q
this outrage was IDstIgaied by the priests, or by
| the government; but II vas certainly regularly
orlsDizsd and precoDcerted affair, and We hardly
| think the natives would have dared To commence
hustilIties without the assurance OF assistance
| f,om some efficient quarter. We have not yet
| seen the end of II II something ~ not done
promptly and vigorously by the Americans for
their protection we are fearful tndt the numerous
scenes of ST. Domingo will be acted over again on
| the Isthmup Of Panama. Our people will either be
butcheIed or driven into the sea. IL behooves us
| then to be on ourRuard. Amercsns, countrymen,
ouk 20 it, and, while you respect the laws, protect

Horrible Affair.
This morning, about III o'clock, rencontre
took place between @. w. Terrence. Of Texas, and
James Parker. formerly OF New York, but late
| from New Orleans, which will probably result IN
| the death Of the latter. The facts, es we learn
hs IN from those who witnessed the ARRAY, are as
foliows The parties met In front ot the Orleans
Saloon, and in the course Of dispute which al
most imm. diately took place between them, the
| he given and blows Interchanged. They
fought hve or ten minutes, without much apparent
| injury, when Terrence, IN breaking from Parker,
" To recover for fresh round, put bis hand be-
hind him. end drew a pistol from his pocket,
| with which be- instantly shot Parker Terrence
| was Immediately arrested by the Americans
| around, and put In the city prison. We refrain
from express sang our opinion this distressing oc-
| currence, but hope that fair and impartial exam
nation will be had, and justice awarded AT the
| last accounts Parker was breathing his last.
