PASSENGERS FROM PANAMA.-The Massacre.-
The wounded passengers that arrived on Tuesday by
the Empire City are all advanced in years. One Of
them was cut down the back by the robbers while in
pursuit of his belt. He had on sort of sheep skin
shirt at the time. in which there were several small
pockets, or purses, in which he had between So 900
and So 900 concealed the hard earned savings with
which he was returning to his family. Those that
wounded him discovered, and took about half of his
treasure, and let him go, but he was Immediately
afterwards attacked by another lotef the banditt,
and tleeced of every cent. Another Of the passen-
gers has severe cut wound across the left arm; a
third received severe blows and contusions on the
head, and the fourth is also seriousy hurt. The pas
sengers estimate that the Panamenos robbed the
passengers and the railroad depot of something like
100000. Had short time been afforded to the
Americans to prepare themselves, they would have
been able to give better account of the result. The
outward and homeward bound passengers at the
place, at the time, numbered about HOO, and had it
is supposed, among them, some $50 revolvers, but
they were mostly unoaded and in their trunks. One
mode of attack by the Panamenos was the collecting
of stones and hurling them among the American
passengers. Considerable apprehension was enter
tained that an attempt would be made by the assai
ants to tear up the railroad, which is not at all
popular with very many not Of the best kind Of
natives, who have benefited, heretofore, by passen
gers and money being detained rather not enabled
to 60 quite so fast on the Ismus The scene of the
riot is described as having been fearful one, ant

THE RA1LRoAD.-There has been tremendous
freshet in Eastern Mississippi, doing such damage 50
the Mobile and Ohio Railroad as put stop, tempo
rarily to the communication between Mobile and the
upper end of the line. The trains which left here on
Tuesday and Wednesday last have not yet returned.
On Wednesday, the down train was thrown of the
track, by the giving way Of the embankment, about
seven miles beyond Enterprise. the locomotive tum
bling down the embankment about ten feet, where
she now lies. The Chickasaha and other rivers and
creeks are very high, and above Enterprise, eonsa
erable damage is done to the road. Some days will
be required to put it in repair. The communication
s however, open to Enterprise Atrain left this city
for that point this morning, and we understand, reg
uar tri-weekly trips will be made until the damages
shall have been repaired when the daily trips will be
resumed. Ss&
1t strikes us, that our railroad builders will soon be
convinced of one TRUTH and that is that the beds Of
creeks and water courses. are not the most eligible
locations for railroads in this latitude. We hope the
Mobile and Ohio Company will profit by the dear
bought experience for the last twelve months.

Rope.---BY SCHILLER.

We speak with the lip, and we dream in the soul,
Ofsome better and farer day;
And our days, the meanwhile, to that golden goal
Are gliding and sliding away.
Now the world becomes old now again it is young
But The better's" forever the word on the tongue
At the threshold of life, Hope leads us in
Hope plays around the mirthful boy;
Though the best of its charms may with youth begin
Yet for age it reserves its toy.
When we sink at the grave, why the grave hos scope
And over the coffin man planteth-HoPE!
And it is not a dream of fancy proud,
With a fool for its dull begetter:
There's a voice at the heart that procaims aloud
'W We are born for something better"
And that voice at the heart, oh, We may believe,
Will never the hope of the soul deceive!

Oh! fair the slender vine,

Beauty and power expressing,
Thou art that vine, sweet bride,
Round guardian manhood wreathing,
In veal or woe, in joy and pride,
Thy balmy fragrance breathing
Joy to thee, lovely bride
Thy nuptial lamp is lighted,
While love and truth preside,
Thy welded VOWS are plighted %=.
And when that lamp is dim, a3@
May brighter beams surround thee, 49,
And thou in love still cling to him.
ToWhom those VOWS have bound thee.
