My last letter to you conveyed the moursful in- telligence of the dreadful ravages of the cholera ia our city; since then all signs of the disease have entirely disappeared, and the city has again become healthy. We have the most delicious weather that { think I ever experienced either in the States | or in Europe; the mornings cool and pleasant until ten o’clock, then slightly warm, just enough so | to make it comfortable uatil sundown; thea fine cool nights to sleep. The ©. C. was detained at Chagres three days, | care of if aman takes the slightest himself im this climate, he can always keep healthy, never going out in the mor ing early or 10 the air of night without an overcoat, or warmly clad—~many of the deaths that have late- ly taken place have been through the grossest im- pI ce. Businees is reviving more and more every day, and the miners are now coming in, hav- ing no more fear of the cholera, to lay im their win- ter supplies before the rainy season sets in; al- though | am informed by the “oldest inhabitant,” with whom [ am mtimately acquainted, thatit will not rain until after the holidays. The three largest gambling saloons, which have been closed tor three weeks past on account of the want of patronage, opened on the evening of the 18th for a resumpnion of business; and | cau assure you they have been weil attended. We are now in hopes that our city willresume its general healthiness, and that we | shall be free from disease for sume une to come. The trial of Robinson, Caulfield, McClatchy, and others, the squatter rioters of the 14th August, whose trial was set down for Saturday, the 16ch instant, at the great town of Benicia, has been tponed until the next term of the Court, to be holden in April, 1851. The trial was put off oa application of the counsel for the defence, for the Teason, asgiven, that material wiinesses on their bebalt were absent—not because they were tar away from the acene of the trial, but from the fact that n@ energy had been used by the defence to procure their witnesses, many ef them walki: about the streets in this city, uasubpanaed, and, $a matter of course, not rendered liable to an attachment for centempt of Court. To sum it up in a very few words, the amouat of the business is, there will not be anything d with these men, who, for a fancied, and, as yet unproven right, and from the very worst counsels of ethers, at home and abroad, through private communication, and through the medium of preases devoted to their cause, would steep their hand: the bleod of their fellow man and neighbor. The matter will gradually cool off. Oae witness will go one way, and one another, until they all dis- appear; and the rioters, kaowing these results full well, feel themselves secure, and, through their organ, the Settlers’ and Miners’ Tribune, edited by the same Dr. Robinson, the chief of the gang, and sold through the streets by McClatchy, will still go on, ena continue to disseminate the seeds of amerchy and rebellion, bidding defiance to the laws, and paving the way for greater and more heartrending scenes of bioodshed and murder, while the cries of the butchered Woodland McKinney, from their graves, will he passed by, purposely unheard and unheeded by the weak aad ators of the law. Party lines hi at last, been drawn in this sec- tion of California, and pretty ughtly, too; and no men can receive a nomination uniess he is purely whig or democratic; everything, now, from 4 con- stable upto the President of the United States, must have his certificate of partizanship. Indepen- dent and stump candidates will be at the things that were. The two great parties have lately held meetings, and the immediate organization of the parties taken place, and the first great contest be- tween the two sections wiil be the election of a condidete to the Assembly in the place of L. F. Duslap, the member elect, who lately died with the cholera; he was a whig, and the politic of the genileman to be elected will teil, almost coaclu- sively, which way the wind blows as regards our United States Senator. The Seward faction of the whig party stand no chance here. At the whig meet ing, heid on the l4th, every allusion that was mide to Clay and Fillmore was received with thunders of upplause, aud every five or ten minutes the speakers would be interrupted by some patriet in the crowd, cating for three cheers for Henry Clay, which were always enthusiastically given, and et each Gime with increased erdor, The return of the census of this city and county bas W.

This will give new value to all the products of the country, besides adding greatly to the currency. We shall receive more cheaply, and in greater sbundence, the pro- joctions and manufactures of ovher landa, not to mention the other obvious benefits which result from the opening of new markets. The comple- tion of the various wharves, now in progress in Kealejo, will be an important event for us.

There is no really important intelligence from any of the republics on the Southera Pacific coast. GUAYAQUIL. (Translated from El Convencial, December 6th, 1850 } it was reported that General Elizalde, on the 25th of November, hi jucted an expedition against Manabi, in order to take possession of that cuy. It was said, also, that, the deputies of Manabi, Cuenea, and imbabura, will not attend the convention, which will not be able to do any- thing for want of a quorum. Although these ru- mors were published in E/ Convencial, of Guaya- quil, that paper adds that it is difficult, not to say impossible, to believe such a thing, and hopes that the deputies to the national convention will fulfil the Umer prag given to them by the vote of the opie. Pee find in the same paper the following notice: ‘* Senor Vincente Martin wishes to know the re- idence of M. Davis, who was captain of the Auierican whaler Franklin, in 1837. Any infor- mation of Captain Davis, or of his sister, Pamela Davis, who is supposed to reside near the Hudson river, will be received with interest by Senor Vin- cente Mart.n, at Guayaquil.” BOLIVIA. We have news from this country to the 4th of November. General Ballivian, aceording to an order of the government, had been obliged to leave Bolivia. He went to Jujuy with his friend, Senor Linares. The peace of the country was perfect, and business active: The Neighdor, of the 23d of November, says:— “ Belzu was still improving in health and power. Ballivian was net captured, as a former report scated. A decree had been published forbidding to cut bark during the next three years, in order that the trees might grow.” PERU. The 20th of December was the day appointed for the election of a President of the republic. _ Lima continued to be at the mercy of thieves, who had plundered all the convents. There is not 8 night without four or five alarms. The govern- meat, without means of repressien, is unable to protect the citizems against these robbers—three unared in mumber—perfectly well armed and organized. he Neighbor, of the 23d of November, says :— “The elections were soon to come on. The police in Lima were making exertions to prevent the crimes which have been of such frequent oc- but not with very satisfactory results. Tee cars had made a trial trip on the completed portion of the railroad, with very indifferent sue- cess, it seems, since the train ran off the track. CHILI. This country is again in a state of great agita- tion. The new laws of the government, prompbit- ing the right of re-union, created a profound sensa- tion. Numerous meetings were organized in some of the principal cities; addresses were sent to the ministry, who immedictely took repressive mea- sures. An insurrectionat movement occurred in the province of Aconcagua, aud the people took to arms. The government made some illusory pro- mises; but when the ineurrectioa of Acoscagua wes appeased, and order restored, it declared the provinces of Aconcagua and Santiago under mar- tial Jaw. This measure was received with great disapprobation by all the country, and the papers of Valparaiso are unanimous in biaming the eutho- Tities. The Neighbor, of the 23d of Nov. says:— The Comercio stetes that on the Lith inst. at 3 A.M , five political prisoners arrived at this port from Santiago, under an eacort of 25 men, und were em- barked on board the frigate Chile. Their names Los Senores Lastarna, Larrachea, Lilio Zapio- la and Guerrero. Since thea, Lastarria has been allowed to come on shore on bail, and is to be al- lowed to go to Peru. On the 19h Senor Alemparte arrived in town under timilar arrest. The Neighdvor, of the Tth of November, says :— © We cannot do less than express our regret that any events should have occurred causing dieagree- ment between the locai authorities and North interests. Apd we trust seach justice wil] prevail onthe one side, and friendliness on the other, that all cause of dissatisfaction will be speedily removed. So far as we can learn, the cose siandsthue:— : 7 “The American ship Addison, {Captain Lawrence, arrived at this port from Talcahueno, with @ cargo of ol. At the latter port the captain had shipped four men, three of whom were natives and one a Frenebman. After her arrival at this port, these men forwarded a complaiat to the captain of the 2 | port, to the eflect that they were pot well treated nor well ted, and wished to leave the ship. Sub- eequently this officer went on board, and demanded of Ceptain Lawrence that he should give up these men, and, indeed, that he should send therm in his own boat on board the frigate Chile. This Captain. Lawrence did, unwillingly, as he says, end with remonstrance; but the ain of the port seys he did it with full consent. The next morn- ing the Chile sailed early, at about six o'clock. “When the matter was laid before the Inteadente, on the day following, by the United States Coneul, at had occurred, saying that ifthe Chile were here he would restore the men at once, and offering to supply their places by sending tour others on board. lie sta‘ed that hethad been altogether misinformed, and therefore had given the order in the case. The matter has now been reported in full to the Ame- rican minister at Santiago, and there awaits ad- justment. “Itis to be regarded ag an unfortunate affair, and none the less so from the extremely disagreeable osition in which it has placed General Blanco Fimeett. The principle can never be allowed that vessels of a foreign flag are liable to have their crews taken from them by the authorities of the port, on any pretence whatever, except through permission of the consul of the country whore fleg the veasel carries. The power to discharge a man hes with him, and with himalone. Aad if our view of the facts is the correct one, the govern- ment will certa jetain such an interterence aa this has beca, pronounce it entirely ua- warrantable 1 « Further, we hope the most moderate and ami- cable counsels will prevail. It is to maintain a prin- ciple that such movements should be resisted, and no minor motives should be allowed to have weight. The idea of laying claim to heavy d mages is injudicious and unjust, aad if done would be oppressive. It is true the officers of the 1. cal government have committed a grave error in impressing these men: there can be little doubt ge! out thet. But if that error ie acknowledged, d the assurance given that such interference is t ewstained, and will not be repeated, we hope ed will ask nothing more.” not ut wi ore inte COMMERCIAL BTATISTICS OF CHILE. — The usual yom House etatements of imports ord exports have just been published for the secood erter of this year, (the second rare instance of + netualicy in this respect. for which we ore in ebted to the present Mio ster of Finance.) and pre- nt very satisfactory resuha.

My regular correspondence has been interrupted, ata time, too, when there has been the most im- portant intelligence to communicate. This is ow- ing principally to the uncertainty of the steamers calling here during the prevalence of the epidemic ; but now that it has subsided in Kingston—I may say disappeared—I trust to be enabled to write fully ond frequently, as heretofore, asl have no doubt that the steamers will call here without in- terruption. Although Kingston, Port Royal, and Spanish Town, have to be thankful for the disappearance of the scourge, still the enemy has left behind such bitter wounds that time alone can heal. Out of a small population, say 40,000, we have lost at least 4,000. But ia Port Royal, the mortality has been more fearful ; out of about 900 of the inhabitants of Pert Royal, 430 at least have fallen victims to the fell destroyer. . On the north side of the island—Montego Bay and Falmouth—the scourge is still raging iv all its malignity; and the mortality in Montego Bay, amongst the children, is greater than it has been in eny other part of the isiand.

As the time approaches for the meeting of Congress, on the 20th January next, political feeling runs high, | and the public press is discussing with great anima- tion the relative merits of the three candidates from whom Congress must choose one to be the mext Presi- dent of this republic.

Our Baltimore Correspondence. Bartimons, Jan. 6, 1950. Attempted Murder and Robbery—Arrest and Iden- tification of the Thieves—Sale of State Bonds— Commercial Statistics, §c. On Seturday night, a young man, named Al- | pheus Mozier, a stranger in this city, and recently from Boston, Maes., whose business is peddling in jewelry and books, visited the Holiday street theatre, and having imbibed pretty freely, was ac- costed by four young men, who soon entered iate friendly conversation with him. They then made him believe that a friend of his, whose name they had by some means obtained, had been looking for | him, and requested him to meet him on Loudon- slager’s bill, where they consented to accompany him, The party started off, and were soon joined by two more, and proceeded out Fayette street to the outskirts of the city, when Mozier, suspecting something wrong, refused to go any further. He was instantly knocked down with a slung shot, and on recovering and struggling with his assailants, wee cut several times on the head and arma with a bowieknife. Three pistols were also fired at him, bot, by some meant, missed him. A second blow on the head knocked him senseless, when they | carried off his pocket book, contiining $150. He | was soon after discovered by the watchman, and carried to the watch house. Medical aid was pro- | cured, and hing A morning the physicians were of opinion that his wounds were not fatal. The poiice officers at the theatre fortunately ob- served Mozier go out with six young men, all of whom they recognized as professional thieves, and were yesterday morning enabled to bring the | whole of ther to the poiice office in lees than an | hour after etarting for them, viz :—Jobn O'Connor, William Galt, James Morton, Arthur Owens, and Luke McCabe, ali of whom were fully identiied by the wounded man. His pocketbook, knife, &e , were found in their possessiog, but none of the money.
