saws: The Panama brings us files of the
Star, Herald and Echo to the 25th ult.,
being but four days later than were re-
ceived by the California.
The rain had not ceased, and the Cruces
road was said to be in the most wretchai
condition. The Star says:
The memory of the oldest inhabitant
runneth not back TO the time when the
winter or rainy season held on or lasted
so long as doth the present. Here is the
23d of December, and the rain has not
ceased-and the Cruces road was never
in worse plight.

.4nother Flores E-pedition.-A passen-
ger by the British steamer Bogota informs
US that Flores was engaged in getting up
another expedition against Eucador. 1t

of Americans entirely, enlisted in Cali
fornia, a large number of whom have al.
ready enrolled themselves in the ranks.-
We further learn that two steamers have
been purchased for the expedition. We

ANoTHE NEW TowN.--A merchant Of
this city inferms US that quite thriving
village is springing up at Red Bluffs, the
head Of navigation on the Sacramento
river. Already many temporary shanties
and buildings of different kinds has been
erected, and the place christened Caverts-
Vile. At this point nearly the entire bulk
of merchandise shipped from below for
Shasta and The northern mines is received
and stored, from whence it is transported
in wagons to it's different places of destin-
alton in the ieteror. The steamers Fash
ion. Orient, Daniel Moor, and Gazelle are
now in the trade, and never fail to go up
heavily laden with goods. Indeed, SO
immense is the amount of freight for ship
ment to this little village, that the steam
ers named find it impossible to carry it
all. These indications are truly cheering,
and show very plainly what may be ex-
pected in this line of business under more
auspicious circumstances. Union.
