WASHINGTON, July %, 1857.
1t il understood that Gen. Herran, the Minister from
NewGranada, after several interviews with the SEQ
retary Of State has offered propositions embracing all
the points Of difference between the United States and
his Government, with view TO their final adjustment
and that the propositions will be accepted II SO, the
negotiation will be terminated in treaty. the
particulars in regard to the propositions have not
irsnspred hut it may be presumed that they do not
essentially differ from the demands reported to have
been made by our special commissioner, Mr.. Morse.
An essential provision in Mr.. Morse's project was
the transfer 70 the United States Of jurisdiction
the Island of TOBACCO In the Bay of Panama thu prop.
erty of which is now in the Pacific Mail Steamship
COMPANY. Perhaps this concession may be taken by
the United States as sufficient indemnity for the out
RACES Of the 18Th ofApr, 1885, and security for the

demand which Messrs. Bowlin aud Morse presented
az an ultirasum must be assumed by the United

sges At too high q mark-$400, 00O--it will still be
claimed by the parties, and the Government cannot
dispute its OVID estimate,

HAVANA, July II, 1857.
Gen. Coucha's energy has been arous I'd at last to
action, and we are promised that the slave trsle
shall be suppressed at every sacrifice. Whether
this spark Of vitality has been aroused by the indig
nsnt outburst Of British feeling or remorse Of con-
science, is hard to tell am rather inclined TO be-
heve that it 10 the sst effort of the rogue 20 hide
his shame under the cloak of ignorance or pre-
tended virtue; nor do believe that the orders he
says were issued in May last were ever dictated
until be saw the storm bursting on his head. 1t is
true that many of the vessels have been fitted out in
theUpted States, but il is also true that large feet
has been dispatched from this port and that some
Of has dearest friends have furnished the means
wherewith TO fit them out. 1t is idle for him to
say i'll his circular to the Governors that they must
Danish from their respective Jurisdictions all par
ties known to be accomplices in the Afri-
can slave trade. These officers know full
We'll to whom they belong, and where they
reside. 1t is rather late III the season for this
abuse of the trade, in which be has permitted his
friends to enrich themselves, without the slightest
show Of authority. The Telegraph mentioned in my
last il still here, fitting out for the Coast and will be
ready to 60 to sea in tine course of few days. There
is also another American brig preparing for voyage
TO the Coast but have not yet been able to ascer
tain her name and present owners. The captain Of
the latter is young German, who goes out for the
first time. The two vessels are owned by the same
parties, one Of the most celebrated houses in this
city, and bosom friends of the Captain General from
which would naturally suppose that they do not
entertain any serious fears of the sentence OF Danish
menf, with which they are threatened. have heard
Of no recent landings the Coast though several are
daily expected. Her Britannia Majesty's screw
shp-of thelne Orion is in port. 1t is said that she
s one Of the feet ordered to cruise in our waters in
search Of slavers. She is too large for the purpose
and two little brigs would do much better.
General COncba has issued order prohibiting
the wholesale formation of new stock companies,
and makes it obligatory on tho part of the promo
ters of any new scheme to obtain his consent before
opening the subscription books. This Is in conse-
quence Of orders from Spain, where the stock mania
has produced considerable uneasness for the future
credit of the island. As the General dabbles in
stocks about much as any one else, it is easy to
conceive how little he reshes the task of curtailing
the exuberancy of the CreOles.
The yellow fever continues to increase, particu-
hrE among the shipping, and the Spanish Navy has
to lament the loss OF several promising young officers.
1t is not quite go bad on shore.

Scene Of the Railroad Disaster.

HAMILTON, G. w., March %.
The interest attached to the locality of the
late accident at Des Jardines Canal was this
day renewed by the raising of the submerged en-
gine, and the testing of the bridge which is now
repaired.
The engine was raised by pullies and derricks
to the top of the water, and showed the forward
wheel of the engine, on the right side, broken of.
From the position of the engine as it lay on its
side on the bottom of the canal, it seems quito
impossible that the wheel was broken by the fall.
Everything goes to show that the axle was
broken either on the bridge or very near it, and
that the breaking of the bridge was from the con-
cussion which ensued.
