said to be on their way from France, in order to
departments. The war had produced an ex-
tensive disorganizaton Of the commerce, the
executive administration, the postal arrange
ments, finances, and naval and military depart
ments Of Mexico. In and around Vera Cruz,
as well as in the city and port Of Minititan and
other points of the sea coast the French enforced
the most watchfuf and rigorous system Of military
| repression against all who opposed them. The
British officials said nothing, and seemed rather to
| approve of the action Of their late allies. The
Egyptian negroes impressed by Napoleon had
murdered nine women and children in village
| near Vera Cruz. Colonel Labrausse, French
Commandant in Vera Cruz, had died Of vomito, as
had also the chief of the negroes. It was reported
at Panama, our correspondent writes, that the
affairs of the French progressed most favoraby in

dated at Managua, Nicaragua, on the 2Sth Of May,
with mail advices brought to Panama, and for
warded thence on the 9Th of June. Our Managua
correspondent gives very Hatterng report of the
prospects of the Transit Company, both as regards
the actual working of the route and their present
and probable future relations with the Nicaraguan
government He says that Secretary Seward had
instru cted Mr.. Dickinson our Minister Plenipoten-
tary to President Castillo in positive terms, "to
protect the transit, and keep the public highway
open at all hazards" and also TO see that !" the
route should never again be molested or interrupt
ed. either by external or internal dissensions."

inson carried out the intentions Of the Cabinet
| in negotiating with Captain General Martinez, ap.
pointed commissioner for that purpose by Castil-
10, is said to have produced excellent effects.
Eleven hundred passengers have been lately cross.
ed over the route without accident or hindrance,
the land and water transit being both in good or
der. From Panama we have advices of o charac-
ter the very contrary to the above. Our cores

ment with the Nicaraguan government" He also
