TOTAL WRECK OF THE STEAMER KALANA.-The
steamer kalama wrecked at Kaoa, Kauai on
January 5th. The steamer was loading at kaloa for
Honolulu, when heavy squall, coming on, blowing in
shore the captain got under weigh and stood out to
sea. Scarcely had the anchor been trpped when it
was discovered saws The Poyneian, that the steam
eIs bow falling of into the trough of the sea- and
that she was making little or no headway At the
same time Capt Prendergast, who was on board
ticed this circumstance and called Capt. Joness atten
tion to the fact that the engine not working prop
eriy. Capt. j. being at the helm requested Capt Z.
70 .tep into the engine-room and ascertain what was
tie matter with the engiLe. In few moments Capt.
2. returned on deck and reported to Capt j. that the
engineer was working the engine by hand over her
centers, and that she had caught once her lower
center BY this time the boat had fallen broad off
into the trough of the sea, and drifting bodily on
to the point. The boat having little headway up
to this moment, effort made to back her into
the cove, but without effect, and there being no pros
Iect of clearing the point with steam, the anchor
et go as last resource but with no avail. In few
mon epts she struck heavily fore and aft the point
and immediately biged, aud lin few hours total

ISIHMUS OF PANAMA.
From The A,pin.oaH Courier. FEB. 10.

During the past fortnight local event of great inn
portance has ranspred the lshmus, except he az
rival of the President of the r. X. X. Company. The
arrivals and departures in our harbor have been
about equal AT Panama, the Emelie has returned
from the Central American coast with good haroln-
ger of trade from that quarter. Our city government
is in as promising condition as everyone Judge OFF,
ciang for the honor Of the thing aud for the sake OF
his friends and the other in patient expectation OF be-
ing paid at some future time the incumbents OF the
other Offices have repeatedly resigned and though not
reeased they 90 nothing. he health OF the popua-
ton Of Aspinwall is very gOod-the chief injury which
it now suffers being for lack of water. We have as
vet no dngs from the Department Of Herrera as TO
the result OF the expedition OF the Governor tor the
suppression of the recent rising against the State o-
cials there. The following, from The Panama Star
and Herald of the sth, has since been fully confirmed.
ST. CouDe for several years attached TO the Pan
anna police corps he brave and energetic, but too
inpusive.
that Sr Manuel Coui je had been drowned at Chepo by
the accidental upsetting of small canoe in which he
was disembarking.'
We understandable United States Consul Ward has
again rais. his flag.
Since our last dispatch to the United States we have
had another startling reminder of the imperative ne
cessity of better government regulations than any we
have heretofore had in Aspinwal. On an occasion OF
great excitement one Of the most prominent feast
days in the innumerabe calendar OF this country,
fight between Natives and Jamaicans occurred, only
three or four being engaged in or in anywise con-
Dected with 1t et hrsti some or the ponce, however,
who were endeavoring to separate and arrest the com
batauts were struck by of these parties who
sisted the nest whereupon instead of increasing the
police force only in accordance with the necessities of
the case, the Alcalde made descent upon whet is
properly called the Jamaica Quarter, with near q
hundred armed men, hall demented with the easting
of two days.
The railroad is generally in very good condition, and
it is under the constant and viglant care; some
of the iron bridges are needed and we understand
they will soon be forthcoming. There is but very lit
tie sickness the road, and with but comparatively
few hands the road is kept in good order. The depot
at this terminus is progressing rapidly though the
present promre of it's appearance rougher thau
had anticipated.
The work upon the extension of the wharf Of the
w. /. r. NJ. s. z. Co. has been suspended throughout
the whole fortnight for want of material.
The work on the wharf Of the United States Mail
Steamship CO. has gone on well lately though much
impeded by the constant discbargng there. The Iii

upon the wharf with gang-plank only.
