Movt of these passengers and the mils are in the steamship Georgia, Captain Porter, which left Chagres for New York, via Havana, on the 26th. She has no epecie on freight. The cteamship Philadelphia arrived at Chagres of the evening of the 26h of July, having expe- rienced « heavy gale on the 16th, which lasted three dvy*, in which one of the seamen was washed overboard aod lost. One seaman had both lege broken. One firernan died from the im juries received. The Philadelphia shipped heavy seas, Which caused mach damage to her upper works. She would repair while lying at Chagres, and would sail about the 7th inet. for New York. The Seral’ Sands, Thompeos, from Sem Fran- cisco, arrived at Panama.

She was lying in the thickest part of the shipping, and in order to save further damage to other ships, direction of Yerba Buena, where, in five fathoms water, she was scuttled. The U. was a good ship, and was in readiness to leave on a voyage. Very little has transpired at San Francisco since the middle of last month, worthy of special notice. The feature most to be noted is | the energy with which improvements are pushed ahead in all parts of the burnt dis- trict. Many business houses are already in ope- ration, and many more are up ready to be occupied in a few days. The general stagnutioa of business resulting from the fire is fast giviag place toa more cheering condition. But little is doing in the mines, The waters is in the emall ravines too little, for successful ope- rations. This difficulty will soon be remedied, as the waters are falling rapidly. With the exception of anumber of frightful murders committed in the Southern mines, we hear of but very litte disturb- ance throughout the whole mining region. Immigration is pouring into the country through San Francisco, as rapidly as ever. The people are anxiously awaiting the final ac- tion of Congress upon the question of their recep- tion. Very Important from Oregon. CONFIRMATION OF THE DISCOVERIRS OF GOLD IN THAT TERRITORY. San Francisco, July 1—5 P. M. ‘The Carolina has this moment dropped anchor, fortunately, just before the suiling of the Cali- fornia. She left the mouth of the Columbia oa the morning of the 28th of June, but was detained off the harbor some ten hours in « fog. Her accounts are not of the character ex- pected. The existence of gold in Oregon is now certain. It has been creating great excite- ment through the various cities and towns in Ore- gon, and hundreds are yiving up business, and pro- ceeding to the vicinity of the mines. You may re- member that an account of the discovery of gold near Oregon City, was published about two weeks since in the Alta Califorma ‘The intelligence is now authenticated. Gold has been discovered, and in abundance. That which ia now exhibited shows an entirely different character toany of that dug im the mines of California. It contains large qeanticies of Hlatisg, and ts said to be of a richer character. Other than the gold excitement, there is nothing bat: reporting by the Carolina.

The United States Mail Steamer Hermann, Cap tain E. Crabtree, arrived off this port early vester- day morning, having left Bremen on the 15th, and Southampton on the 20ch ultimo. The Hermann brings about LO passengers, and a large and valuable cargo, comprising 200 tons of mrrchaundise from Bremen, aod about 220 tons measurement (680 cusee) of laces, silks, gloves, velvets, &c., from Havre, received at Southamp ton by the French steamer Nord, speemlly char- tered to convey these goods for transhipmieat to the Hermann. Our private correepondence from Southampton, by this steamer, alludes to the extraordinary exer- tions being made by the West ladia Mail Company, under the auspices of the British government, to get into operation the new plua of steam communi- cation between England and the Pucific, by way of the Isthmus of Panama. Oa the 2d of Angust, it was announced that the Trent would leave South- ampton for Chagres direct, in conformity with the new route a3 lnid down by the Admiralty, That ship would touch at St Thomas, where three branch steamers will await her arrival, to one of which the mails for Demerara and the leeward islands would be transferred; to another, the mails for ‘Trinidad, Tobago, St. Vincent, &c ; while agother ship would receive the meils for Jamaica, the Galf of Mexico, &c. These three packets would then depart for their respective destinations, while the ‘Trept would proceed direct to Chugres, touchiog at Curthagena. The course homewards will be the feme, ond the ship bound for Eugland will meet the branch packets at St. Thomas, and recewe from them the mails which they will have brought ap from the various quarters from whieh they bave ar rived. The voyages are to be performed twice & month, and, with the present vexsels, Chagres will be renched in twenty-four dave frou sucha! including all stoppages. sgoiticent ships, greater power and speed, are, however, to he prow vided to perform the through voyages, and th eighteen days only will be occupi When this poheme, is in full operation, it is calculated, by the English company, that they will obtain the whole of Uie traffic from the West fodies and South Ameri- ca, 4 large portion of which has latterly bes ed. vie Roe York und Liverpool. Wher will ever be done remains to bs seen, aud will reat measure, depend upon the success of the new ipe that are to he placed on the fine. At all events, it will beget an active competition with our own steamers, and they will doubtless get a fur shore of the traffic. The names of the five new steamers to be built are as follows, all of 2,250 tons burden, and 750 (uomiaal) horse power, viz:—Orinoco, Magdule Demerara, Amazon, and Parana. The latter vessel is to be built in Southampton, by Messrs. Wigram, of London (lute of the firu of Wegeam and Greea, the celebrated ship builders, Black wall,) who hove recently esteblished « ship-building yard at Sout ampton; two are to be built by Mesers.
