Tne News. ‘The steamer Tennessee arrived at this port yes- terday from Aspinwall, with pews fro Nicaragua, New Granada, Venezueia, amd the South Paciftc. We publish elsewhere full details of affairs at | Rivas and on the San Juan river. The accounts aze mot +o favorable as tie Tennessee has been in tue habit of bringing. Watker-was at Rivas, but it ic weported that there is much disaffection among his men. Sir Robert McClure had visited him, and also severa] American officers. Colonel Loekridge hud failed to take Castillo fort, in consequence of tne eowardice of Colonel Titus, formerly of Kansas, ana was waiting further reinforcements. An important eorrespondence of Genera! Mora bad been intercep:ed and will be found in anether column. The news is ‘imteresting in its details, but not of particular im- portance, no decisive mevement having been made by either side. All sorts of rumors were rife st Panama relative te the position of affairs between the New Graa1 dian government and the: United States. A report prevailed that our Minister, Mr. Bowlin, and Mr. Morse, our special Commissioner, sent out with re ference to the Panama massacre, had demaaded their passports, the government of New Granads having rejected the overtures they were ins'ructed to present. The local press and many influential imdividoals were industriously creating a violent prejudice against al] Americans. The sloop of-war Decatur had arrived ot Panama. From Pera we learn tbat the revolationists under Vivanco are making but litt'e progress. They had, however, captured the brig-of-war Guisse, in the bartor of Callao. It was reported that Presideat Castilla had contracted with some Yankees to do hi+ fighting, but this probably is an old rumor revived. Meantime, vessels are loading guano under permits frow General Vivanco—whe is badly in want of funde—at from eighteen to twenty-five dollars per ton, and even a less sum. By the letters of our Venezuelan correspondents it will be seen that political affairs in that republi are in a state of complete disorganization. The party in power hold their places entirely by the ia- fluence of brate force, being compelled to rely for supports on the very lowest and most degrade) elasees of the population. It is said that Monagas contemplates a coup d'état like that of Louis Nu poleon, in order to play the eutocrat without further sheck or hindrance. Mr. Sandferd had arrived a: Lagusyra on a mission from Mr. Marcy to presec ite the Shelton and other claims. It is stated that the new treaty betweon the United States and Veve- zvela contains a clause compelling American citi- zens residing in the latter republic to do military @uty—that ie to say, te be enrolled in a negro corp: and to be commanded by negro officers. The treaty was ratified about a fortnight since by the Unied States Senate. Can it be that this clause wee over Jooked by them, or that they were not aware of its eonsequences? If one or other of these suppositions should prove © rrect, we must say it betrays elther wnsccountable carelessness or ignorance on the part ef that body. ‘There is nothing important from Chile.

The Anglo-Persian treaty of peace was signed at Paris on the 3d. An armistice had previ ously Leen agreed upon at the seat of war. The British Minis*ry wae defeated upon Mr. Cob- en's motion censuring the Chinese war. The reso Jution received 263 votes to 247 against it. The de- epatches fromCanton confirm previous accounts of ‘the attack and repulse of the Chinese janks on the Britieb merchant vessele, The Chinese had cap tured an American cutter, and great uneasiness: was fel. ae to the fate of forty United States sailors who ‘went up the river for supplies, but had not re turned to their ships. The Emperor of China had @rawn e*ill more close hie diplomatic relations with the Emperor of Rassia, and a despatch from the Gevernor of Siberia to the Czar states that the over- land trade of that province had increased vastly since ‘he commencement of the war. The export of tea to Great Britain had decreased 13,000,009 pounds as compared with inst year. * The Span note on the dispute with Mexico, addressed to the foreign Powers, whieh we publish, bears date tho 17th ult., and is of much importance. It wtates that if Mexico does not afford immediate reparation, a fleet of thirty sail and a namerons army will leave Havana to afford protection to ali #peniards who may desire to quit the Mexican re- public. ingland aod France were, it was stated, to ‘be invited to provect Cuba during the absence of the force. The diplematic course paraued by Seno:s Segovia and Baraila,in Sen Domingo, had caused uneasi- nese to the Narveez government. ‘The last advices from the French ambassador at Berlin brought bad intelligence as regards the Nenchatel difficulty. The representations from Awitzerland were equally embarrassing, and a cee sation of diplomatic relations between Sardinia and Austria was daily expected. The Sound dues 4ifti- culty was looked on as finally settied, and the con duct of the United States government in the matter was feily approved of. An imperial Austrian or- donnance, dated Milan, Feb. 28, announces that the resignation 0! Marahal Radetzky had been accepted. Sir John F. ¢ rampton is appointed British Minister to Hanover. In Liverpool, breadetaffs went off slowly, and the Market was drooping. Cotton was still dall, but prices had not altered much.

Wait a day or two. Tue Carter Bus aT Avpany.—lIt is rapid- ly becoming impossible to tell what will become of the charter bills at Albany. The republicans predicate a safe majority for the reformed charter in both houses; but it eeems quite doubtful whether the old-fashioned integrity of Governor King may not defeat the scheme at the last mo- ment. As to the police bill and the bills for the City Halland Central Park, we kear nothing that can be relied ‘on. No doubt if the city char- ter becomes a law, they will follow in due course; and thus by the action of the Legislature, the control of this city, its money and its patroaage will be transferred from the majority among its :itizens to the minority.

Scott has as- sumed his true pos tion in the army, and will here- after arrange matters witheut the unnecessary in- terference of the Secretary of War. Gov. Fleyd is determined to treat the gallant veteran as he should be treated. The State Department has received information shat the Quarantine et Odessa, which had previous- ly been removed for a certain time, was entirely abolished about che 23d of Januagy last. Inthe Supreme Court yesterday, Judge Roosevelt rendered a decision in the case of Wm. Patton and others against the Accessory Transit Company and Com. Vanderbilt. The order of the special term was reversed, and the epplication for the appoint ment of a receiver forthe Company's ships was re- fused, The Judge said the debt which the plaintiffs wished to secure amounted to only $21,000, while the property to be placed in a receiver's hands is worth a million. Moreover, Com. Vanderbilt offers security in the sum of $600,000,and his responsibili- ty is not questioned by the parties to the suit. The mutineers of the brig Gen. Pierce were bronght before Commissioner White yesterday. Af- ter hearing the testimony of the chief mate— whivh did not differ materially from his deposition published in'Friday’s HzkaLp—the Commissioner committed the four prisoners for trial at the next term of the Circuit Court, which will be held on the/first Monday in April. The case of the alleged French railroad frauds is still going on before Commissioner Betts. The pro- ceedings are-very dull, and of little interest except to the parties concerned. The Aldermanic Committee on the removal of the Crystal Palace, met yesterday. The peti- tioners for the removal of the Palace not being idy to go on with the case, the committee ad- journed, and intend to visit the Palace and sar- rounding grounds in carriages at 1 o'clock P. M. on Wednesday, and to sit again at 1 o’clock P. M. on Thursday next. The Aldermanic Committee on Ferries met yeater- day to hear further testimony in regard to the Roose- velt street ferry. The Union Ferry Company intro- | dueed rebutting testimony. Simeon Mv Alpin said be had been engineer of the Roosevelt street ferry siace it was started, and that it has been better conducted under the Union Ferry Company than it was under the first company. Mr. P. F. Dunham said that the Roosevelt street ferry boats Curlew and Eazie, which he painted this spring, were the cleanest | boats belonging tothe Union Ferry Company. H. W. Collins swore the Roosevelt street ferry boats were repaired as quickly and particularly as any others belonging to the company, but that last win- ter the ize had more severely damaged the boats than at any other time during the last thirty years. The Aldermanic Committee on the opening of a | bew avenue west of Broadway, met yesterday after- noon. There wes a large crowd of interested par ties present, whe supported and opposed the dif ferent routes for the avenue according to their tastes and interests, with warmth and perseve- rance. No conclusion was come to. The March term of the Court ef Sessions closed yesterday. A large number of prisomers were sea tenced—among them eight burglars—the longest term being four years and eight months. Iwo youths who confessed to forging telegraphic des- patches, and collecting tolls thereon, were sent to the city prison for three months. The Grand Jury offered a presentment strongly recommending the paseage of an act by the Legislature which will mate immediate provision for the examination of wit- nesses who are unable te find bail, and tous avoid the necessity of incarcerating them. Judge Raseel! promised to use his influence in the correction of this abuse of the rights of citizens.

IMPORTANT ARMY ORDERS—TRE NAVAL COUaT o¢ INQUIKY—BUMORED RESIGNATION OF THE JUDGS ADVOCATE. ‘The New York Appointments—A Treaty ot Peace, Oar telegraphic advices of this merning give we a broad streak of daylight upon the diffieult problem of the New York federal ap pointunents. The transfer of all the family squablics, quarrels and intrigues from Tammany Hall te Washington for a settlement was a good move, like the removal of Baker's trial up to New- burg. Under the eye of the President and his inet the contesting cliques are put upon their good behavior, and under a short allowance of time they are compelled to come to terms. Still they might have failed to make a harmonious bar- gain, but for the timely and gracious interposition of the Chevalier Wikoff. It appears that through his agency the rank and file of the party, represented by Mayor Wood, and the New York Hotel financiers of the party, repre- rented by Augustus Schell, have been amalgamated, and that the eplendid achieve- ment of such a re-division of the spoils as wil) make all the factions of the party, in the city and all over the State, one and indivisible, may be ex- pected within the next three days. There will be no more barnburners, no more old hunkers, no more shells, hard.or soft, no more Wood or anti- Wood cliques, ne more splits and feuds in old Tammany; but a demoeratic millenium through- out the Empire State. In the patriotic proceedings to thie happy con- summation at Waskington the plan is to give the democracy of this State a new lease of power under the new firm of Wood & Schell the union of the roses. Our worthy Mayor, up- on the doctrine that two lions cannot occupy the same bueh, gives way magnanimously to Mr. Schell. It thus appears that henceforth Mr. Schell is to be the head of the party and Captain Rynders the tail, while Mr. Sickles, John Van Buren, and others of the little outside cliques here and there, are to wait, like Mr. Micawber, for “something to turn up.” Our readers will bear in mind that it was through the diplomacy of the Chevalier Wikoff, as a peacemaker between Lord Palmerston and Louis Napoleon, that that “happy accord” was brought about between Eoglaad and France which resulted in the Russian war, the reduction of Se- bastopol and the salvation of the “sick man” of Tarkey. Thie ie the same Chevalier Wikoff who is now engaged in these peace negotiations at Washington for the salvation of a sick par- ty, and as the mutual friend and confiden- tial advieer of Mayor Wood and Augustus Scbell Wood, ona smal) scale, being the Palmerston, and Schelj the Louie Napoleon in this case.

Five huodred Men were expected at Singapore. The detalis of the mas- secre of the Europeans on board the Taistie are also comunicated in these despatches.
