Lane went out on Friday morning last to tho scone of hoatilitios, with the view of preventing tho commission of further depredations upon the whites. The General is favorably known among and it is to be hoped his influeace will be ac- knowied, by them, and the whole inatter so ad- justed between the whites and Indians as to provent similar disturbances in future. It is deomed unsafe to travol the road to the mines in small companies. Notwithstandiag the late encounters, Mr. Evans and several others started from this place on Monday for the mines. Governor Gainos has repaired to the scene of war. Permission has been asked, we learn, of the ‘Governor, to march into thoir country and slay tho Savi wherovor they can be found. The proju- dics st the Indians is very strong in the min and is daily increasing. This permission is of the Governor, no doubt, to get his sanction so that another claim may be set up against the go- vernment for services in another lndian wer. There are many we suppose, who, disappointed in the mines, would prefer warring to mining, if thoy could draw pay for their time, or obtain a grant of land. The troops have all been ordered out of the country, and we are left without proper protection. ‘There will be great need of assistance in the east— we fear tho Snake Indias are going to bo troublo- some to the coming immigration.

Mr. Parsons had, for some months, work- ed at his trade, blacksmithing, in this city. Early in tho spring, he started to the Klamath mines, whore, by trading, ho had made some mony. About a month ago he returned to this city. laa conversation we had with him, we learned that it was his intention to return immediately to the minos with provisions and stores of various kiads; haviag procured his outfit and somo eight or nine mulos packed, he started again, some turee weeks since, for the mines Ie had goxe along safely up to the time oftho murder, and it was thought, by the com) y poveeey, that they were boyond tho Mey danger.

A line is proposed to Miraflores and Chor- rillos, places of general resort in the bathing sea- sen, and no doubt the arrangements for carrying it into effect will be supported by our capitalists. The late President, Goneral Ramon Castila, is sojourning at Chorrillos. We have had in our port the boautiful United States frigate Raritan, fifty guns, commanded by Captain C. Gauat. This vessel sailed for Payta and the Northern Coast a few days ago. In August, two largo steamers are expected from England, the Lima and Santiago, 1,000 tons cach» and are to be placed on this line; then this will be extended to Guayquil, touching at the ports of Hua- cho, Casma, Santa, Huanchaco, Lambayeque, Payta, and Fumbes; so that we may soon look for- ward to a semi-monthly communication with Lurope.

They are well adapted to work on the farms, and for menial uses. At the tine of the sale, there was a tremendous rush for the citizens of the Cdestial Empire.

The Chile journals give a distressing account of the military riot at Santiago, on the 20th of last month. Colonels Urriola and Arteago, at the head of a batallion, attempted to overthrow the go- vernment; the other tovops not having followed the movement, a collision ensued, which lasted four hours.

[From the Valparaiso Mercantile Reporter, June 9} On the 4th inst., in the evening, a heavy rain commenced, and the wind, which was blowing very strong from the north-east, increased groatly, ani | consequently the veesele in the bay were in a por'l- | ous situation. North winds prevail at this soason being winter or the rainy . Every precaution was taken by captains and owners of vestcls—tho clements, however, demand every year & victim or two. The Boston bark P Frunning & Co., hound for California, having on board a carg? of 3,200 barrels of flour, was driven on the rocks, | and within three or four hours after striking, ecnreely @ vestigo of the vessel was econ. The | Palestine was being repaired, and had transhipped 1,600 to 2,000 barrels of her cargo on board of the | Fremcn bark Catharine, therefore only 500 to 800 borrels were on board at the time of the wreck, part | of which have been saved. The American bark Alpha, bound for California, | was —— by the late storm to put back to this | yort in aleaky condition, eeveral boats haying been | upeet rear San Carlos, and a number of men lost their lives.

It i a melancholy fact, how- ever, which official returns will shortly prove,that the present year's crop, which should have exceeded inquantity that of any other year ,sinco the aboli- tion of the apprenticeship, will actually fall short of the crop of Ba: badoes—an island whose area is less | than that of tho single pa of St. Thomas in the cast, but whore redundant pepulation enables it to | apply every acre toremunerative cultivation. The | beretting evil of Jamaica is the extent of her acre- age, and the disproportionate number of her popa- lution. In Barbadoes where population is redun- dant, and every aere of land is applied to profita- bie cultivation, population presses on the means of enbeistcnce, and the peoplo aro industrious from ne- cessity.
