From Central America

BY the arrival yesterday morning Of the steamship
Philadelphia, we have received dates from Panama
and Aspnwal to the Sd inst. They contain very
little news of interest. Affairs the Isthmus were
beginning to assume more settled aspect The fol-
lowing article, which we extract from the Aspinwall
Courier of the Sd inst, will give the reader an insight
into the state of politics there at that date
Bartolome Calvo, Governor elect of this State was
naugurated at Panama on Wednesday last and we
understand that considerable demonstration was
made on the occasion. The military, police and the
citizen volunteer corps were paraded, firing salutes,
etc. Several speeches were made, and general good
feeling is said to have been manifested.
We have ever had faith in the integrity, tact and
| energy Of Calvo He is a mulatto, a native of
Carthagena practical man, and brother typo and
was the most influential editor of the Isthus for two
years during which we were laborng in the same
field at Panama-like other New Granadans, he is
exceedingly jealous of foreign influence, and as a
politician, he is crafty and assuming; but We have
always found him honorable than others. If he
cannot deliver the State from the slough into which
has fallen, no one will be secured whose services
| will avail.
The termination Of the factional strife whic has
been carried on at Panama for several weeks upon
the Gubeuatorial question having been accomplished
by the Inauguration of the candidate elected, has to
considerable extent restored security to the minds
of the natives and citizens of That city and vicinity
and everything wears a more settled aspect. Our
local business will now revive, and we trust that the
reaction from the state of lethargy into which all
business men had fallen, will induce brisk time for
some months to come.
elearn from the same paper that Mr.. \. j. Center
had arrived at that place and would take the place Of
Col Totten as General Superintendent Of the Panama
Railroad Company during that gentleman's absence
! from the Isthmus
Col. Totten was to leave OH the steamship George
Law, for New York, it being his design to visit his
friends in the States.
The Presidential contest was as yet undecided, but
it was supposed that Gen. Mosquera would be the
successful candidate lie being largely ahead at last

agn and abandon affection for this State, have been
presented to him. =.
The Democratic and American parties are expected
to hold conventions in q short sime and when they
shall have adjourned there will be four tickets for the
voters to consider.
Charles Doane, Chief Marshal Of the Vigilance
forces has been nominated for Sheriff by the Reform
party and also by the Republicans. Several offers
Of the Vigilance organization have been likewise &C.
lected.
The County Grand Jury are in session, and it is sup
posed that they will indct those who oieiated at the
execution of Brace and Hetherington, besides coming
in with full cargo Of other bills.
The political aspect of the city is misty. All the
parties have enthusiastic meetings." torchaght pro-
cessons and street discussions but not mar can tell
who will be President
The Courts have no startling cases before them,
the assessed property has been equazed and the de-
cison made by the Board Of Supervisors declaring
the Sheriff aud Coroner no longer entitled to hold
their Offices has been referred to the Supreme Court
The governing apparatus moves on loosely but with
ont noise.
Trade has been dull, but many fine buildings are in
the course of construction. Stone pavements ana
sidewalks are being put down in various parts Of the
CITY, There are but few ships in the harbor, though
great number are on the way.
The markets contain everything from fine straw
berries and green peas down to native pork
Amusements are almost stagnant. The American
Theater is poorly attended, but Lola Montez will play
final engagement there soon. The Metropolitan
Theater is to be used by "a circus company. The
rooms of the Vigilance Committee have been closed,
the arms put away, and the sentines removed.

We extract flom our California exchanges the fol-

Our latest intelligence from this quarter is to June
2lst. The news is barren of general interest. Fur
ther discoveries of gold fields continue to be made.
The Rocky River, Fingal and Delorane Districts
are all turning out very fair. In the latter, some
claims have yielded largely. Hands hiring ont in the
mines get $40 per week, working II hours per day.
Miss Hayes had been singing ut Melbourne and
elsewhere, with success.
Measures were in contemplation for checking the
rapidly increasing Chinese immigration. Immense
numbers of them die on the passage from China.
A section of the Geelong and Melbourne railway
had been completed.
The Queens Theater, at Maitland, was burnt on
the 10th of June.
nugget of pure gold weighing tifty-four pounds,
had been found at Geelong, being tile largest ever
found in the colony, except one.
The Panama Star of the Sd inst, has the following
additional items:
We have received via Caao, files of the Melbourne
Argus to the Both Of June.
New gold fields have been recently discovered in
Tasmania, which are creating considerable excite
mcnt and the reports from all parts OF the colonies
respecting this mineral are favorable.
The papers before us are filled with communications
and editorials on farming, and other matters OF in
erest to readers. Crime appears to be decreasing:
at least the papers make less mention of mnrders and
rObDereS than usual.
