Result of the Amerte Investigation into the Massacre at Panama—Departure of the United States Commissioner for Bogota— Movement of the Isthmus Jews—Treasure for Engiand—New Granada Troops at a Ratlway—Agreement on Boundary Ques- ton with Costa Rica—Legislative Doings. Oar files from New Granada are from Panama and Aspinwall to the 19th of Jaly. The most interesting piece of intelligence from ‘the Isthmus is contained in the following note:— 70 THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. New York, July 29, 1856. It is understood that the report of A. B. Corwine, United States Commissioner to Panama, relative to the massacre of American citizens at that place in April last, isin the mail per Illinois. Of course nothing has transpired to foreshadow the character of Mr. Corwine’s reports, but judging from his well known republican sympathies and his ‘aversion to the petty grievances and outrages to which our countrymen have been subjected for a series of years on the Isthmus, it is fair to infer that he recommends that our government should adopt decided measures to guarantee protection in the future to our people resorting to that part of the country for purposes of transit or otherwise. The Americans resident on the Isthmus have great confidence in Mr. Corwine’s doing them jus- tice. His appointment is regarded as the most popular that could have been made, and the publica- tion of his report is looked forward to in California as well as on the Isthmus with the greatest interest, and his recommendations and suggestions with re- gard to the best mode to be adopted by the United States to protect the transit, should, and we doubt not will, receive the favorable consideration of go- vernment. Mr. Corwine, baving completed bis labors at Panama, has been ordered by our government to proceed to Bogota, the capital of New Granada, for the purpose, it is presumed, of exeouting some or- ders on behalf of the government relative to our disturbed relations with that country. The inwal! Courier, of 18th instant, contains the foll summary of news:—The mails and passengers from the steamer George Law were sent to Panama, from this place, on the 16th instant, in two trains; the first left here at 8:15 and the second at 8:30 A.M. The first reached Panama at 11:30 A. M. and the other at 12 M. The Storm King has lost no time in his work for the Isthmus during the last fortnight. He has poured upon ua almost a continual rain. The Panama Railroad Company are making ap- parent beginnings of very considerable wharf exten- sions and fillings, by which the dock and wharf fa- ‘cilities of our harbor will be very much improved. The United States Mail Steamship Comp: are working on both wi of their wharf, and will soon have them |, 80 as to give ample room for two of their ships to berth tandem at the end of the wharf. y are in daily expectation of ‘4% veasel with 1,000 tons of coal, to be soon followed with others bringing smaller cargoes of the same ne- John Mathizon, Fsq., agent of the British Pacific Steam Navigation Company, left Panama on the 16th insteat, for Callao, whither the agency of said company has been removed. An entertainment was given to A. B. Corwine, fisq., United States Commissioner at Panama, by a number of his oid friends, at the Loceria, the ha- cienda of Mr. Jas. S. Hermann, on the 12th day of July. The affair was impromptu, enthusiastic, just, appropriate and happy— so we understand. We learn that it is the intention of several gen- tlemen of the Jewish persuasion in our city to establish a society among themselves for the pur- pose of procuring a piece of land to make a burial! , for the interment of their co-religionists who may expire on this Isthmus, and for othe: hy undertakings. Her Britann Majesty's steamship Cockatrice. Commander Diiicn, 28 days from Manzanilla, reached Panama on the 1th instant, bringing $300,000 in ‘treasure for Europe. .

The royal mail steemship Dee has transhipped to the steamer Clyde gold dust to the value of $40,000 trom Star M. . The Panama Herald, of July 19, saya:—From a recent isaue of the Panameno we chserve that Costa Rica bas coneented to join the Colunbian federa- tion. The boundary between that country and New Granada waa satisfactorily arranged by General Herran, without any territory being lost to the lat- ter country. News had been received from Bogota at Panama. The Tonnage law has passed the Senate, but had not received the signature of the Executive; it is to take effect on the Ist of September next; the pro- ceeds of this tax are to be equally divided between the nation and the State of Panama, and it is calou- lated that the treasury of the latter will thus be in- creased about $50,000. The Aspinwall Courier, of July 18, says:—The Gaceta Official, of Bogote, publishes the private communication of the Vice Governor of this State, addreseed to the Minister of the Brazile at Washing- ton. To-day we have not time to notice it further then to say that it is a “cunningly devised fable,” | full of misrepresentation and egotism; and, although lett for the mine yesterday.

SHIPMENTS OF WHALE OIL ACROSS THE ISTHMUS (From the Panama Herald, July 19.) We are informed wy the United States Special Inspector of Customs at this port that the w! ‘ip owners in the United States have addressed a com- munication to the Secretary of the T at Washington, desiring to know whether their oil, if shipped across this Isthmus, will be admitted into the United States on the same terms a8 if sent round Cape Horn, to which he has replied that he has given the Special Ing; here instructions in reference thereto, and landed here by the vessel to which it originally be- longed, can be sent across the Isthmus, reabipped at Aspinwali, and entered at any port in the United States on the same terms asif faxien round the Cape.
