x The correspondent of the New
York Times, of late date, says:
Panama is intensity dull. 1t looks like
a deserted city, the only activity being
visible at the railroad station, where
large piles Of merchandise are crowded
for transportation to the Atlantic side.
Last week no less than four vessels ar
rived from Buenaventura, with full car
goes of Cascarilla bark, and every day
more produce, such as india-rubber, sar-
saparills, hides, straw hats, horns, &C.,
arrives in transit to Europe or the Uni
ted States. An addinional large store
house is to be built, and it is also pro-
posed to enlarge the Company's Wharf
SO as to afford more accommodation.
Along the line of Railroad a great
deal of land has been cleared this season
for cultivation say between 5000 and
5000 acres, all good land and capable
of growing any tropical production
The increase in the number of houses
along the road is also quite apparent.

IL WILLIAM RALsroN, the original
Watch maker and Jewelry man, of Ash
land, advertises a new stock in to-day's
paper. WILLIAM continues to live in a
state of single-blessednes, and of course
is very accommodating to those of the
fair sex who give him a call. We have
observed many of them since the arrival
of his new stock, leave his establishment
with mysterious packages in their hands,
and while cycling them exciaim, "these
are nsyjewelsIp From which We infer
he Is doing q land office business"

for us to assure the people that they sell
Boots and Shoes cheap. Their extern

people are aware of the fact. To the
few who have not, as yet called in, We
would say, however, that they have the
largest and best selected stock of Boots
and shoes ever brought to A shland.
