Visit to the Tobacco and Quina Districte—Indignation Cawed by the Outrages ut Panama—Fusoradle Disposition of the New Granada People towards the United Stasce—The Approaching Presidential Election— The Quina and Gobaceo Industrica—The Projected Anti-North-American League ainongst the Catholic American Since 1 last wrote you I have been on a long journey through the tobacco and quina districts, visiting, during my tour, the famous natural bridge of Pandi, and descend- ing the river Magdalena, on rafts and small boats, from its ‘moet upper waters navigable for any kind of water craft. It was not until I reached the city of Mompos, abou, 120 miles from the coast, that I heard of the fearful out- rages at Panama, and I am glad to say that every one wpoke of them in terms of deep regret and indiguation. They feel that the faith of the nation has been broken, whether through the weakness and incompetency or the iu will of the authorities on the Isthmus is not known, and that its honor has been stained. Judge Bowlin, our Min ister at Bogota, will no doubt bfing the subject immedi- ately and earnestly before the government, and I enter- yain the belief that he will find every disposition on the part of President Mallarino and bis cabinet to do all that is: Just in the premises, I have had the honor of a persona, acquaintance lately with all of these gentlemen, and have found them to be enlightened statesmen, and exceedingly friendly to the United States and her political interests and tendencies. President Mallarino has @ som now educating n the vicinity of New York. Hon. Lino de Pombo, the Secretary of Foreign Affairs, is an exeedingly liberal and enlightened statesman, and bis son is the present Secretary of the new Granadain Legation at Washington; Gov. Vunez, Secretary of the Treasury, who was formerly Governor of the province of Carthagena, is a young man of fine talents and a prominent member of the democratic party here ; Hon. Luciano Jaramillo, Secretary of State and Home Department, was lately Senator in Congress for Cartha- gena, and is a gentlemen of great legal acumen, adminis- trative ability and sound judgment; and Hon, Florentino Gonzales, the Attorney General and President of the Cabi- net, (its constistutional organization bemg somewhat dif- ferent {rom our Own), is not only one of the soundest law- yers and first statesmen of the country, but his great abilities and attainments, with his fine gift of burning oratory and logical reasoning, would place hi in the fore- most rank among men in any country in the world. Ne is not only personally well acquainted with our own coun try, and the first nations of Europe, where he has held ipportant diplomatic stations, but is an ardent admirer of our institutions, and labors constantly to introduce their principles and method here. To all this may be added the very great, and 1 might almost say paramount, influence of Gen. Mesquera, who if an estabii-hed merchant and resident ‘of New York, where bis f now resides, and who is now ‘at Bogota attending Congress as Senator fer Savanvilla. His warm preferences in ti vor cf the United States are well known, and bis judg- ment is much respected here in all qu this he fs the author of the present tre two countri e wh he was Pre. sidest of New Granada, and Gen. I? > ex-President and resident Minister at Washington, is bis son-in-law. Under all these circumstances I think there is reason to believe that the negotiations for reparation and indemnity will be brought to a favorable conclusion as rapidly as is possible under a representative and responsible govern- ment. Ihave entered upon these particulars in order that a just appreciation of the facts as they exist here, may be opened to your readers. T have already told you thata Presidential election es place here in July, and that there are three candi dates in the field; Gen. Mosquera, who is suppo! by the national party; Senor Murillo, by the ultra repubii- licans, who affiliate much with the principles of the French red republicans; and Dr, Ospina, the ndidate of the advocates of the Church and tate union and the sup- ression of the heretica. The contest will probably be between Mosquera and BMurillo, for the ranks of the church militant seem to be very thin in numbers, Each party is confident of success, but I haye no means of esti mating the probable result. During my late tour throw m the upper waters of Ihave been everywhere mo simple fact that I was an Am the good will and kind attentions tion of country through which 1 paseed is the prince! seat of the tobacco culture, and one ot the chief producers of quina or Peruvian bark. The trade in these two ar. ticles has received a great impulse here within the last few years, and is rapidly increasing.

The Peravian bark of New Granada will always find a profivable outlet, and her tobacco stands next to that of Havana in European mar kets.

From him J learn that the whole country, for many miles is one continued swamp, the greater portion of it being under water, that the only way of prospect- ing is in a canoe, and from the constant rains a man never can be dry. He found the best pian was to follow the custom of the biacks, and work naked, but this exposed him wo the eun and numerous insects. Farther in the ia- terior Wore mountains, many of which had not been visited, and all their streams contained some gold, but the difficulties of getting at them were very great, and the danger of sickness imminent. Aparty, under Mr. Cameron, of New York, were there, but gli had been down with fever and ague, and most of the men still had it on them. Mr. C. is expected here soon, as he had met with little success, A small party of three or four from Philade!phia is said to have broken up; and a gentleman by the name of Mathews, from New Or- Jeans, who brought some machinery for the purpose, has given up his enterprise and gone to California, Such are the tidings I can gather in relation to the gold fields and the gold hunters. Carthagena I have £) en of in a letter during my for- mer visit, but my stay was €0 short and my ob:ervations so cursory that a few remarks now may be of interest. ‘This city was formerly the chief seat of Spanish power on the Main, and still glories in its fine harbor and strong walls. The bouses, which were very strongly built, are mostly in fair condition, and asmali outlay would bring the greater part of them into a perfect state, Here was the seat of trade up the Magdalena ri and across the mountains to Quito; up the Atrato and acrogs the Isthmus of San Juian to Lima, and some portion of the trailic with Acapulce and the west coast of Mexico went from bere; but now the storehouses are unoccupied, the harbor is nearly deserted, and the canal that connected it with the Magdalexa river is stagnant with mud and water grasses. ‘The trade of Peru and Mexico have gone into othor chan- nels, and even that of the Magdalena, once tributary here, ha found an outlet through the marshes of Savanilla and Sauia Marta, outict, it is true, has been a laborious and an expensive one, but it has sufficed in some measure for the limited commeree of the country, anc it has only been within afew years that the increasing want of an cacy cecess to the river has drawu the public attention here to the subject. It is found that the delay and expense attending the introduction of goods to the navigable waters of the in- terior, and the export of products, which when the trade was small was of little account, Low amounts, with the increase of commerce, to a very serious burden, and va- rious plans are under consideration to relieve it. First. among these is the Dique of Carthagena, which is an artificial canal, ten miles long, connecting a serie: of lakes and natural channels with the bay of this city. it combines the advantages of a good port, a fine city At band for the accommodation of trade, and an entrance into the Magdalena river, some fifty miles above the marshes that surround the mouth, The Dique can be Lacing se opened at a comparatively small expendi. ture, and the contract for this purpose, and privilege of navigation, is now held by a New York company. Second in importance is the Canal de la Pina, connect. ing the port of Savanilla with the river, inside of the bars that infest ite mouth. This canal is simply an open chan. nel of the river, and is kept open only by a constant watchfulness and expenditure of money. At present the passage of small boats through it is much impeded by accumulations of sand and mud in the channel and shell tish near the sea. The port of Sayanilla is not consider- ed a good one: and the téwn itself is a collection merely of mud huts, the seat of the population being the town of Baranquilla, inside the bars, and situate on the bank of ihe river. The government is now advertising for pro- positions for cleaning out the Canal de la Pina. There is a route eastward, through a large salt lake which is connected with the river by several channels, one of which, though narrow, {5 navigable. — This is called the Santa Marta route, as it is intended to facilitate unication With that city. Santa Msrta lies on the ard, some twenty miles from the mouth of the river, the port of eutry for nearly all the goods for the for this trade, throngl and is interior, Savanilla being ill adayte ts bad harbor and want of accommodation for goods. After entry at Santa Marta the goods are taken to Baran quilla by boats that run through the breakers on the bar, or eleo go through the shallow ** Boca Vieja’?
