Arrival Of GuanO from NetoLy Discovered

Gnds ANNEXED 10 United Sales.--future
Supply Of GuGnO from them.
WASHINGTON, May l,
The intelligence from Honolulu, via san
Francisco, in regard 10 the Guano Islands ia
the South Pacific, is very favorable, and fully
justi6es the expectations of the American
Guano Company, TO which the Islands belong.
No little excitement, says Honolulu paper,
was caused there by the arrival ION the 18th
of March) of vessel with about hundred
tons of guano from Jones' and New Nantuck-
ct Islands. 1t Is pronounced to be frst-rate
quality Of guano.
The agent of the company, Mr.. Arthur
Brown, had taken possession Of the islands 10
the name of the Uoied States, and erected on
each flag staff, which bears the American
flag, and serves for the protection of the prop
srty of the company. No fresh water was
found on the islazds. Birds nests covered the
islands, and the birds were 80 thick as TO cloud
the atmosphere.
These are the islands which Com. Mervine
was instructed To visit, aud which he only APP
preached without landing and which he veu-
tured TO state, In 40 official dispatch, contain.
ed 90 gssno.
AT the nrst session OF the late Congress, an
act was passed for the protection of the rights
of American citizens IN such guano islands as
they may discover aud Use, upon certain ON.
ditions, which have been complied with By
the New York company.
Small samples of the gnaHo Of these islands
were brought 10 New York, year or two ago
and have been pronounced, upon analysis, by
the best chemists, as guano OF the best quality.
There are samples OF it at the Patent Otiice,
which Mr.. J. ID. Browne highly approves Of as
possessing the most fertilizing qualities.
The company, as learn, intend this cargo,
Of which we now have an account as an ex-
pertinent, for the satisfaction Of the public, IN
regard TO the qualities of the depOsige In these
isands; and Ia this end, they bad directed
that portion of Il be brought over the Islh-
mus Of Panama TO New York this spring A
number Of tons are TO be sent 10 Washington
for gratuitous distribution, under the direction
Of the Patent Office. The company have, du-
ring the last two in"nths, despatched several
ships from New York aud Boston 70 the
islands, with every facility for bringing back
