ney to-day from Colon al follows:
"The situation on the Isthmus is un.
changed. Trains run across regularly
without mOlesiation."
II is the general opinion among the
officers on duty at the navy department
that tho marines who were recently
sent from New York viii leave Aspin
wall on their return home within two
weeks.
The officers apprehonds no further
difficulty and say IL is useless to keep
up so large force on tho lsthmus UNI
less the rebels show signs Of continuing
their devastatiOus, Should tho marines
return, Admiral Jouett VI i'll still have a
force Of about 600 men to protect Amefi-
