Domestic and Foreign Intelligence of Interest
The Pacific Mail steamship Tennessee, Captain Totten, from Panama, arrived in this port yesterday morning about 8 o'clock. She left Panama at 5 o'clock P.M. of the 1st inst., and has consequently made the passage in nineteen days and fifteen hours, including all stoppages and detentions.
She brings 273 passengers, whose names will be found below, and an extremely large mail, consisting of 190 bags, or about eight tons of mailable matter.
This is a ton and a half more than ever before.
Mr. McLane, U.S.M. Agent informs us that the Isthmus is now in horrible condition for traveling.
We are much indebted to the gentlemanly purser of the Tennessee, Mr. Isaacs, for late papers from Panama and the Atlantic, as also for list of passengers and other news.
Our acknowledgements are due to Adams & Cos Express for late papers. Also to Gregory & Co.
The Tennessee brings dates from New York to the 14th June -- fourteen days later than our previous advices. The dates from the Isthmus are to the 1st inst. We insert the report of the obliging purser of the Tennessee.
