TWELVE DAYS LATER FROM PA
MAMA.

Ry the Steamship Phadephio the Picayune
las ;Ies orPaaama papers to the 30th of De-
ccmbe5-;nclse days later than before re-
caived.
We notice 4 report OF preparations on the
mart of Gen. Flores for another expedition
against Ecuador. A passenger by the British
steamship Bogota, from the South American
coast; informed the editor of the Panama Star
that Eure. Is engaged in getting up another
rxpeGltio". Ii Is said that his army this time
: fa consist ut Americans entire ", enlisted in
Caliilrn.a. large number'of whom have al
resdy enrolled themselves in the ranks. The
Star tu-.aeri learns that two steamers have been
purchased for the expedition.
DR.. Salvador Camacho RoIdan, who sue
ceeds Gov. Herrera at Panama, arrived in that
civ on The 20th ult.
The Star referring 10 report that the af-
fa.rs in dispute between the New GransdiaR
and Peruvian Governments had been amicably
arranged. says:
Bv the las; steamer from Calao, we learn
that the arrangements entered into by the Pc
Iuyian Minister, Tavara, at Bogota, have not
been approved by the Peruvian Government,
AID Senor Tayara has been recalled on account
of the Steps hs had taken in this matter.
Ii tappears that the Granadian Government
h5its an old clnim against Peru since the time
OF Bolivar, and has also made recent claim
against the latter Government on account of
the Flores expedition, both of which Senor Ia
yara The Peruvian Minister ut Bogota, had ac-
knowIeigeG as being Justly due 10 New Gra-
NADIA By ms Government.
On receiving Seuor Tavara's signature TO
this effect, the Granadian Government des-
patched o:eIaDG by way of Quito 10 Lima,
Msjor NGteo Sandoval Ia claim tire amount
due from the Peruvian Government.
The latter Government at once disayowed
their Minister'S acknOW iedgment OF these
c.,Ims end refused payment thereof; the result
o'shich was that Ma ior Sandoval was obliged
10 leave Peru on the last steamer with empty
pockets, aud is now in this city on his return TO
BOgota. What the finale between the two
Governments will be, is hard TO predict. The
war may vet come.
In the same paper ne have The 70 flowing ac-
count OF q curious Peruvian relic, presented
by Gen. Ramon Castillo, of Peru, TO Capt. Pc
derson, late commander OF the steamship
Quicks,ep, who, it appears, intends to present
il TO of the public institutions of the United
States. The Star says:
Our friend, Capt. Peterson, recently arrived
rom Peru, brought us for examination a day
or two since remarkable curiosity. 1t is part
ofa aPOnchO, dug from an Indian grave at the
town Of Huacho, about sixty miles from Lima.
lis texture is moderately fine; and the raised
iowers embroidered on ii are rs fast in their
cOiOrs as hen first manufactured. 1t is in
Itself convincing proof that the Peruv ians
were acquainted with the fabrication of wooden
goods long before the Europeans ever discover
ed the country, rs there is no question that this
ponchO was buried with the body which il en-.
veioped precious TO 1882. The evidence of this
is that il was obtained from grave near that OF
one OF the lacas; and it viii be remembered by
Tue render that when one OF these soverei ms

this.
Nlr. Rice, late L. S. Consul at Acapulco
who has been spending some time in Panama
was TO leave for the United States with his
family, on the 3lst ult.
In reference TO the late earthquake al Aca.
pulco, the Herald Of the 2lst ult., says:
We have private letter from Acapul-
co, when gives no luther information relative
10 the earthquake than has been published, ex
cept that there was a great hssure in the
ground, from which much smoke and a strong
saiPhuTous vapor arose; and that other shocks
were anticipated.
ine same paper has the following awful
knnck-COW story.
During thunder storm last week, we have
been informed, mat nearly 800 head of cattle
assembled IN corral on "haCenda," about
zen leagues from Panama, together with the
men who werr employed watching them, were
al struck 10 the ground by thunderbolt tha
-eii amongst them, but that fortunately neither
men nor cattle eceIged any injury.
