PANAMA..

Another revolution had occurred at
Panama on the 5th instant. The Star
and Herald says that the uniniliated in
the politics of Panama were rather as
tonishpd on waking up on Sunday morn
ing TO find that IA revolution had occur
red about S o'clock, the Government
overturned, the President imprisoned,
and a Provisional Government installed,
and all done in the q~uietest manner pos
sible. The Revolution simply consisted
of the acting President, Diaz, handing
over the Government to the Commander
Of the forces, Gen. Ponce, aud making
himself a voluntary prisoner, until q Pro-
%visional Government could he establish
ed, of which General Ponce has been
installed as head. The object Of the
movement was to keep the Conservative
party out of power, as it seems the cleo
tions throughout the State has gone IN
their favour, and this could only be e-
fecied by disSolviug the existing legitl-
mate Government, declaring a revolution
and installing a Provisional Government.
Proclamations on the subject had been
ISSUED to the native inhabitants, the
foreign residents, and the army. A de-

On Sunday, the 18th June, there was
a combined attack of the Cacos on the
Fortaesus Come, st. Joseph, Dimanche
and Bizoton, which lasted till A o'clock,
n. m. in which the ~revolutionists lost their
cannon. flag, and a number of men. The
Government troops suffered also very
heavy losses, as they were exposed to The
fire of the revolutionists' cannon whilst
charging them outside the portal of ST.

"BARBADos.-Our exchanges are 10 the
23rd June. There had been occasional
showers, of which advantage had been
taken to plant corn and potatoes, but in
the absence Of constant rain, owing to
prevaiIings east winds, the ponds remain
ed dry and it was difficult 10 procure
water and pasturage for the cattle. The
crop was nearly closed, the time being
remarkable for reapjng. A good deal of
sugar had been sold for the American
and Canadian Markets at remunprative
prices. The quantity Of produce shipped
10 date Was 44,339 hhds. Sugar; 1926
puns. 100 hhds. aud 7I9 barrels MoIasses;
3 pun$. IL hhdS. Rum, and 27 bales cot
ton. The Races, of which we have al
ready given some particulars, having be-
come such a universal sport, it was pro-
posed to grant e 100 Il year 10 the Race
Fund. Mayor Mundy had arrived from
Grenada to assume the administration of
the Government.
TOBACCO The Legislature had present
ed an address 10 Lieut.. Governor Kortright
congratuIating him npon the confidence
placed in him by the Queen in appointing
him to administer the government OF so
important a colony as Trinidad, and ex-
pressing the hope that his administration
will be attended with as happy results as
have marked the period of his govern
ment Of Tobago.

HAITI.

From JacmeI we have received intelli-
gence to the effect that by order of the
Government Authorities no light was al
lowed to be shewn from the Light House
at that place; and that in consequence of
some villages in the neighbourhood hav-
ing been pillaged and burnt, the inhabi-
tants were thrown into a state of great
alarm. Women and children were taking
refuge at the ConSuIates and in the houses
of foreign residents. The United States
Consul had written to ST. Thomas for a
man-ofwar to protect American interests.
Communication with the several ports
had been entirely cut off, while Cape
Haiti and Gonaires pressed on all sides
by the Cacos.
Port-au-Prince was still besiesed. Some
villages in the n~eighbourhood had been
pillaged and the houses burnt, and it was
believed that the same would be done to
the capital whenever the enemy entered
ii. Her Majesty's Steamer MuHet was
lying at Port-au-Prince, but was shortly
10 proceed to Jacmel.
We learn that Monsieur lie ChavaIler
du Courthial, the lately appointed Con-
snl-General from France for Haiti, and
who was to have arrived here in the
CaraUeAe, en- route for Port-au-Prince,
was landed at Cape Haiti, when on hear
ing of the unsettled and d~eplorabIe state
of things in the Republic, he chartered a
French vessel 10 take him and his family
to The port of his destination.
The combined attack on Port-au-Prince
which was to have taken place or the
3Olh, was postponed on account of ii por-
ton Of The army having been withdrawn
to protect the towns of Leogane and Pc
tite Goave, from the attempt Of the Pr
que's to enter and plunder.
The Haitien Steamer "22nd December"
was supposed to have surrendered TO tie
RevolutioniSts at Cape Haiti, as she was
to have returned at Port-au-Prince several
days before the departure of the "Plan-
tagenet," but had not been heard from.
The Haitien Steamer "Galatea" ex-
pected at Port-au-Prince. had not at latest
accounts left New-York, where she had
been sent for repairs.
Two Frenchmen in the town of Port
au-Prince had been accidentally shot.
Among the Passengers per 'Plantage-
net" is Mr.. Rameau, late Secretary of
President Gefirard, who is on his way to
Jacmel to join the Revolutionists.

cree was issued, prohibiting vessels from
leaving Panama for other ports of the
State, and the transit of the Rio Grande
without permission.
A new Fire Engine had been received
at Panama from New York, and a volun-
teer Fire Brigade was about to be estab-
liShed.

CURACOA.

At last accounts Yellow fever was
raging at the Island of Curacao, and
several Europeans had fallen victims 10

marched out of the infected districts, and
the Governor and other officials had also
gone to places Of safety.

The Governor pressed the despatch
upon The consideration of the Court; as
it strack him that the object which the
Court had in view had been fully accom-
plished by the resolution which had been
adopted, and by the manner in which the
subject had been brought before the Sc
cretary of State. The Attorney General
gave notice of resolutions on the subject.
The Ways and Means Committee had
made the following Recommendations
the vote of a loan of $4,000 dollar 10 the
General Revenue, out of the immigration
Fund; the reduction Of the duty on rum
from two dollars to ff y cents a gallon;
an increase on the amounts charged for
licenses; the imposition Of a license OF
four dollars on rural shops the exemp-
ton Of various articles from duty the
reduction of the import duty or refined
sugar TO two dollars per cwt., and dlscre-
tionary power to the Government 10
withdraw the dislillery license from any
estate, the owner or lessee of which dl-
rectly or indirectly struggled rum and
the warehousing Of inflammabIe oils, at
the rate of half a cent a gallon per month.
The WAYS and Means submitted showed
a total of 1,48I, 500 dollars. Mr.. McDer-
mott, the editor of The COlOnlSt was
brought before the supreme Court for a
libel on the Chief Justice. He mande an
ample apology and the matter was allow
ed to drop. There had been two arrIv-
ais of immigrants from Calcutta, the
Clarence with $50 and the Harkaway with
212. The shipment Of produce to The
United States was going on to q consld-
cradle extent, and both sugar and rum
were bringing good prices.
The produce shipped during the fort
might amounted to 1897 hhds. $50 %tierces,

been held at Port of Spain, at which an

praying him to adopt such measures as
would ensure for the Colony the boon
of Geographic communication with Eu-

about to take his departure from the Co

The Government would in the interim be
