Larr rrou Canson VALtry.—A letter from Gon. dated a week sinco, announess the rapid ac- ecesion of emigrants in the valley, and the gratify- ing intelligence that they so far, ‘almost without ¢x- ception, arrive in good health apd epirits. This is, however, to be looked for in the ease of the early comers, although exaggerated reports of suffering in some instances, have led to the impression that mucb disaster was to occur at this early season The accounts of the overflow of the Humboldt river ap pear 'o be unfounded.

It is said that quite a formidable body of men has been organized 1m the lower part of the State, under the Jead of Don Manuel Castro, a native of Monte- rey, having in view the attainment of this objvct. If thers is anything worth while in the project, ad- venturers enough can be hadto engage in it.

Jaly 10 } The New Granadiao bark Sarmiento arrived at this port on the 3d ing’., short of provisions and water, baving lef Panama for San Pranciseo Oe bg of March last, with about 240 souls on ard. We sea in the Echo, published at Panoma in March, the Sarmiento advertised for San Franciseo, and represented as an ‘*A No I soppered and 09 pe fastened bark of 800 tons, having great helgut tween decks, as well us great beam, causing her to be very roomy, besides beisg one of the fastest sbips that ever Jeft Panama.” Whereas, she is a very old Amerigan whaler, of less than 350 tons, nd, we are told by one of tho passengers, a most miserable old tub for sniling. It is not strange, therefore, that with over two hundred ngers on board, a most distressing voyage has expe- riepeed, and that suffering and death have resulted from such over-crowding The ship finally left Ta- bogaon the 27th of March. Five days after leaving Taboga tt was found that the supply of water was short, ard on the 30th all hands, together with the passengers, were put upoo an allowanee of three pints perday. On the 6th of May, the weather being warm, the crew domanded more water, and refused daty. On the 19tbof May, the allowance of water was reduced to two pints a day. and much enflering was oxpcrienced, especially by thore who were sick withfever. Previous to this pont the thip put bask for San Blas, which, after ae days she reached, and remained three jay 8. On tho 2it of May a most fearfal tragedy was evrcted on board, whieh made an impression never to be efisecd from the minds of those who witnes- sedit.

In the busty altereation, the bande was wrenebed off, when Woolfork drew his revolver and shot Jobnson dead. A scone of the greatest excitement ensued ; the murderer was scizot, WA voted that he should be hung, 52 against it, and the balance were neutral. A judge was appointed 3 a jury of 12 empanelled ; the prisower found guilty of mw der, and received his seritence to be hung van | yer.

Oa reaching San Blas, but little was procured, exeept wate few days allowance of bread was ail, and but little alleviution was experienced from the supply of provisions. © pork was good, but not in any thing like sufficient quantity for such a company.
