Yesterday morning our harbor was visited BY the
seVerest storm we have had since January So Dur
ing the evening Of Wednesday, the storm was nearing
us from the but it did not come upon Ms with
much force until after midnight. In the early hours
OF yesterday morning. the swell from the sea increased
rapidly 1t was accompanied with severerain Storm
and strong northwest wind which continued until
near A. NJ, when the wind abated and the sea rap
idly subsded.
The schooner Kent Island was in danger at one time
but escaped without serious injury.
The same paper gives the police of Aspinwall and
authorities generally particular jesse 1t also con-
tains an untavorabe account Of Walkers victories at
hassaya and Granada, which sensible people will take
for what it is worth--nothing.
The Courier Of the 2Sth contains nothing of moment
The following items clip from the Courier Of the
3lst Oct:
The steamer Granada, Capt Alfred G. Gray, arrived
at this port last night at II o'clock with forty pas
sengers and New Orleans mails of Oct. 90. We are
indebted to pulser Briggs for New Orleans papers.
With much pleasure welcome the return of Capt
Gray to this line
The brig Chinchilla Capt Allen, arrived here on
Wednesday morning from Sabanilla after fortv-four
days passage. When but few days out, majority
OF the crew were taken sick.
We are informed that all hands were reduced to the
extremity of eating the hides binding bales of tobacco
in their cargo. On Wednesday morning early the
brig was seen, and Mr.. Smith, Of the Crescent went
ont in a sail boat, and came in with them. Ilnmed
dlately. their arrival, soup and other food were
sent off to the sufferers. We glad to say all are
doing well now.
We are glad to welcome back to the CORDS of the
Panama Railroad, Mr. H. Turner who returned from
a visit to the United States, on the George Law.
We understand that master PELoT Of the L. S.
soopot.war Saratoga now lying in this port has eN-

lying in the harbOr Of Panama.
Says the Courier of the 3Oth instant:
The screw steamer Saladn from Liverpool, the
coming OF which we have announced, and the arrival
OF which mas been expected for some days past,
anchored in our harbor yesterday morning. We 10y
ously welcome this harbnger of an increased freight
business from Europe, for this transit

| PoLITCAL AMALGAMArIoN.-W have hitherto re-
trained from noticing the infamous fact that pre-
cinct in this parish is controlled entirely by colony
OF free negroes. We have done so, because we were
unwilling to expose so foul spot upon the fair fame
Of our parish, if other could be found of re.
moving it; but we are compelled now to announce
to the people Of Louisiana that precinct in this
pallsh-familary known as the 9 Ten Mile Precinct
gives large vote, nine-tenths of which are cast by
nlWIfoes and free negroes. AT the election Tues
day last that precinct gave one vote for the American
ticket and scventy-eight for the Democratic ticket
TO this, however we have not the shadow Of an Oh

should be given to American candidates and we
know that the man who cast the single ballot there
for Fillmore was white. But we do protest against
decent, respectable men counenancing and winking
at the atrocity OF negro suffrage, and also protest
against men (whose claims to responsibility and de-
cency Ii once doubtful, can longer be admit

their own, placing the ballots in their hands, and

the law and trample upon the rights of legal voters
When the fact becomes generally known that free
negro suffrage is permitted in portion of this parish
to an extent that often decides the resut-as in the
Of the last election for shorthand we shall take
good care to have it published in other Louisiana
papers than the American-it will startc many an
honest voter, in the Democratic as well as in the
American ranks, for no honest can, understand

fail to sec its corruptng and dangerous tendencies
We are not prepared to go into the particulars of
the matter now, but if circumstances permit, we shall
make a thorough expose of it, and show up in con.

precisely the col0rs it deserves.
At the same time, notify those persons that We
are personally responsible for what we say or may
say-that we stand ready to give them white mans

answer them with similar weapons.
