The Negro Tnsurrcction Mt Panama
We have received the Panama Star aud Her
aid Of the 18TH.
The news Of Walkers fate had been received
at Pana1na By way Of Havana and New York
and created some excitement.
The negro insurrcction at Panama seems te
I be over. The people felt safe while the plac1
was occupied by Englishand American troops,

Yesterday morning, The Sth instant, about
ten O'Clock, tAe British aud American forces
were embarked on board their respective slips,
the Clio and st. Marys, at the request Of 1nten.
since the morning Of the 18th ultimo During
The stay Of these troops on shore the residents
OF the city, both native and fOrefon, have felt a
degree Of security, which could not other wise
have been guaranticd to them, and considera.

sui still retains his guard from the Clio, In case
Of necessity; and We presume the Command

and willing aid, should the lives or property Of
their countrymcn be endangered.
"T1c good conduct and order maintained
among the forces whilst On shore is highly

The American and English troops have since
returned to their respective vessels.
Captain Porter, Of the United States s}oop-

Blanco and Corresoso, leaders of the revolt,
hare been arrested, but their E,te Is is yet un-

Up to tic sailing of the Ariel no further de-
velopments. The following Is given by the
.Xar aa the cause Of the troubles and the proba-
1c>rcsult:
1.-The cyil has been originally created by driy-
ing number Of the labo1ing clnsscs from their
homes to seek shelter In the woods, in order
to avoid being forced into the army. The fact
may be denied, but it cannot be rcfutcd, be-
cause the proofs to sclCcvidcnt, and every one
lnowE it, although It may not suit some Of the
authorities to acknowledge 1t. In addition to
before them the dread Of being arrested as rev.
whether innocent or gnilty, should
they make their appearance near the city, and
they are consequently still hiding themselves
from the vengeance of the authorities, whom
they now look upon as their prosecutors.
