The murderer Hance, had made confession OF
the murder of the guard in which he implicated a
number OF the most respectable Americans residing
in Panama The authorities, however, placed no
confidence in his disclosures.
The Anniversary of the French Republic was eel e,
cbrated by the French citizens OF Panama on the 4th
Of Nav by Banquet In the Town CounclI House
d. Gazette. Consul of France, presided
Toward the close Of the banquet, the harmony OF
the company was momentarlly disturbed by refer
ence to the absence of Mir. COrwine, the American
Consul but NJ Cazatte defended his absent colleague
from the suspicion of intentional want of respect
or sympathy, and large portion OF the company al.
terward repaired to Dir. Corwlnes residence, ana
greeted him with patriotic song.
The t. s. Sloop Vmcennes was lying at Panama
ready for cruise up the coast, touching at keaeJo

FROM VALPARAISO.

An arrival at Panama from Valparaiso,
with dates to the 18th of April brings intelligence OF
a severe Earthquake in that city on the 3D. The first
shock which was the severest one, and which caused
the falling of many buildings and the destruction Of
much property occurred at about o'clock on the
morning of the Sd Of April, but occasional shocks
were felt for the succeeding three days, doing more
or less damage.
The Panama star says At the date OF our papers,
however, and up to the sailing Of the Juliet, the
alarm had subsidized among the people, and business
was once more running It's usual course We are
unable at the moment of writing tins, to obtain from
any source, full particulars of TINS awful affair.
The steamer Mocha had arrived, with the new ma
ChInery ordered from Europe, Tor the purpose Of
coming. Thus there Will no longer exist any obsta-
Gle in transferring the Mint to Valparaiso, as has
hitherto been the case and which the commercial IN
tcrests Of Valparaiso have so earnestly strven to 90

The clipper ship Sea Serpent, from this port, ar
rived at Valparaiso after fine passage Of slXtyfour
days and sailed from that port the 10th ut, IN
company with the steamer Ecuador.

There is n large npourIng OF Democratic polin-

cIded muss, and If the elements Of dlsafcciion are
allayed temporarily at Reading they Will oay blaze

be made to stave of any expression of opinion on the
Presidential question. | think Buchanan has the
numerical power IN both Conventions, but the friends
of Cass old tactlclanS and will resort Ia all sTa
tegy To accomplish their ends.
The protests against the selection OF Judge Camp
bell as candidate for the Supreme Bench, are said
to be extensively circulated and numerously signed
The chief ground Of objection seems to be that un-
due influences were used IN the primary meetings
that they were controedby non-naturazed citizens
and therefore their proceedings should be regarded
as null. To oppose these facts the Campbell mea
cry out against religious tests, and try to invoke sec
tartan feelings. As the protest refers only to non
naiuralized citizens, ignorant Of our Constitution
and institutions, and makes no reference TO religious
tests 1t that the fuss raised is only dust 10
blind the eyes against the real facts, Nhch seem 10
be quite melancholy exhibitions of partisan duphcy.
