Grorcetown, May 16, 1856. The remains of our esteemed former fellow citizen, Capt. Levin Jones, was taken from his late residence to Christ church yesterday af- ternoon, where an able discourse in commen- dation of his many good qualities as a citizen. and virtues as a christian, was delivered by the pastor, the Rev. Dr. Norwood, after which they were tollowed to their last resting place in Oak Hill cemetery, by the members of Cov- enant Lodge and the Grand Lodge I. 0. 0. F., and a large concourse of sympathizing friends. At a general meeting of the Democrats of our city, held at Forrest Hall last night, H. € Matthews, Esq , was called to the chair, and E.

Business generaliy along our wharves this morning looks very encouraging. The num ber of vessels, chiefly packets, receiving and discharging cargoes is quite large. The flour market this morning is in a very rae state—held at $5 75a$6; the latter price or choice extra brands.

Bacoars —A large number of persons, ap- parently able to labor, have been infesting public places, and annoying citizens and strangers by begging for money. Few of them will receive bread, and consider it an insult when offered. Money is their aim, and money they will have by begging and steal- ing. Some of the beggars are property own- ers, and others who are sent out by relatives who are in good circumstances to make their living by imposing on the charitable. One case we will mention: A boy comes to this city regularly during the week from Alexan- dria. He is a cripple, and by exhibiting him- self at the hotels he receives more than the mort skillful mechanic can obtain for his labor.

Law has arrived from Aspinwall, with the California mats of ‘April BL, wight bundred passengers, and $1,700,000 in treasure. A serious accident occurred on the Panama railroad to the train conv ig the George Law’s outward passengers. were killed and wounded: the correct num! had not been ascertained when the steamer left Aspin- wall. [sconp prspatce | The George Law arrived at her dock at IL a.m _ She sailed from wall on the 7th. The steamer Sonora, whieh left San Fran- cisco on the 2ist of April with upwards of $2,000,000 in treasure; of which $1,670,000 was for New York. The Golden Gate, with the passengers and mails from New York, on the 20th ult., arrived at San Francise> April 13th. The steamer John L. Stevens, upward bound. left Acapulco on the 224 of April. She passed, on the Ist of May, a steamer, sup- possed to be the America, from Panama for Saa Francigco. There was no signs of any further disturb- ance at Panama.

Watson, $12,000; W. & Co., $268 000. diana The Isthmus papers are filled with official documents concerning the Panama riots; but they exhibit no new tacts. No additional names of the killed and wounded are given. The citizens had formed a guard for the pro- tection of property, and the authorities had placed a force at the di: of the railroad company ; so that no further violence was an- ticipated. The correspondence between the Governor of Panama and Commander Bailey, of the St. Mary's, is published in full. The closing note of the latter is exceedingly sharp. He tells the Governor that his answers are not satis- factory, and affords no satisfactory assurance of the safety of the Transit Company's pas- sengers for the future ; and that until he hears from his own government in the matter, be will take all means in his power to avert far- ther danger. The accident on the Panama railroad oc- curred on the Obispe bridge, fifteen miles Panama. The train was composed of nine cars, containing about 900 passengers (chiefly steerage.) Owing to the accident the passage through could not be effected, and the passen- gers were sent back to Aspiuwall. Over50 ef them were wounded, two of whom died soon after their arriva’, The next morning there was a further arrival of the wounded and in- jured. The latest advices state that the wreek had not been wholly cleared away, but thirty dead bodies bad been taken out. Very few women aud children were injured Am ng the wounded wore a number of the brakesmen. The only name given is that of Mr Dalhouse, a clerk of Mr. Aspinwall, who was killed. CALIFORNIA. There had been heavy rains during the past month throughout the State, and mining ope- rations had taken a new start. The grain crops gave evidence of an abundant harvest. The Governor had signed a bill consoli- dating the city and county of San Francisco. The Democrats have carried the municipal election in Sacramento. The Republicans held a mass meeting at the same place, but were driven from the ground by violence. A large fire cecurred at Placerville on the 16th, invatving a loss of $50,000 A powder vesel sank in the river at Sacra- mento on election day. The loss was esti- mated at $70,000 Business was dull at San Francisco. Baltimore Markets Bactimong, May 16 —Flour is firm and in brisk demand. Prices are unchanged.
