ARRIVAL OF THE TENNESSEE!

One Week Later from the United States!

"The U.S. Pacific Mail Steamship, Tennessee, Captain Cole, arrived yesterday morning from Panama, coming to anchor about 12 o�clock. Being Sunday, or citizens flocked to the various points of debarkation, and the harbor swarmed with small boats filled with living freight eager to board the new steamship, and obtain intelligence from friends far away. The Tennessee left Panama on the evening of the 23rd inst., and has consequently been twenty days making the trip, this however is attributed to the fact of her coal being of an inferior quality, as she has given evidence of being a very fast sailer. Her qualities as a sea boat, we heard highly spoken of by passengers on board.

She brought from Panama the largest number of passengers that ever arrived at this port in one vessel, enclosing within her staunch ribs 551 souls exclusive of the officers and crew.
The mail from New York had not reached Panama up to the date of the sailing of the steamer, but we have papers from New York to the 21st of February, and from New Orleans to the 6th of March, the latter containing still later dates from Washington and the other Northern cities. All matters of interest up to the latest period will be found in our summary. When the Tennessee left, there were about 800 passengers awaiting transportation at that port for San Francisco.

The Oregon, Captain Patterson, arrived at Panama on the 20th of March. During her trip down a steerage passengers had his trunk broken open and robbed of about 800 dollars in gold dust. The passengers raised by subscription the sum of 700 dollars and presented it to him.

A returning Californian was robbed in Panama on the 20th of March, at the New York Hotel, of 3,300 dollars
The steamship Sarah Sands was at Callao, at latest dates, but hourly expected when the steamer sailed.

An emeute (sic) occurred at Panama on the evening of the 23rd, between some intoxicated sailors and the soldiers, of police, which resulted in the imprisonment of the ringleaders. The affair occasioned considerable excitement.

The steamship Panama was to sail positively on the 1st inst, so that she may be confidently looked for in one week from today.
Intelligence had reached Panama of a revolution having broken out at Guayaquil, on the 12th of March, between the soldiers and the lower order of people. No serious results were anticipated.
