The hope was, j however, vain. In the confusion, the railroad ! officer* had been unable to organize an effec tive jorce, and resistance could not be made. The building was crowded with passengers guarding their baggage, and endeavoring to find sal'.-ty there, some of whom tn< t the toe, man fully : but the |i>rce could not be resisted, and thev broke in and made the place a real slaugh ter house. At least 500 persons were in the depot when it was attacked, several of whom wete killed on the spot, and many others badlv wounded. Here was a shocking scene presented, not only of murder but robbery and pillage. Hun dreds of trunks and packages were broken open, and their contents taken or scattered over the ground. The floor was covered with blood : and the papets of the railroad company and those of the passengers were strewn about, smeared with the blood of those who ere the innocent victims at these infernal demons. When the depot was entered the crowd dis persed in all directions : hut a large jxirtiun of them fled towards the wharf and the small stea mer lying at the outer end. I pon this were crowded 600 or 700 prisons, including nearly all the women and children. A considerable portion of the baggage of the Illinois' passen gers had been removed from the depot before the afl'rav commenced, and was piled upon a lighter which lay on tlie outside of the Tebogo. This part of the baggage was hid from the na tives, ami from this, or some other cause, was left unharmed. When the villains had driven everybody from the depot, they followed in the direction whence the greatest number (Ted, tow aids the wharf. Oo arriving at the head of the wharf, and perhaps eighty yards from the steamer, their progress was arrested by some means, not exactly ascertained—some said by public order of the authorities, while others supposed it was Ihe sight of so many women and chil dren, from u hom the desperadoes conld not ex pect to take anv booty. Whatever was the cause they did not tire upon the steamer, though thev' shot into a storeship that lay on the north side of the wharf, wounding one or two, and they continued their ravages in other direc tions. Tlie passengers of the Cortes, were many of them, within the walls of the town, stopping at the various hotels, and. therefore, not more than halfof them came within the range of the scene of action. At the first alarm, the gates of the town were closed, arid about 8 o'clock al! the business houses were shut and every build ing in the citv birricartel as well as might be, under the circumstances. Consternation pre vailed throughout. The hells of the c ity rung, and every indication vvas given of danger and (error among the inhabitants. It would be vain to attempt a detail ot outra ges committed iqmri the passengers. Some were robbed of all they had—money and cloth ing—while others only pai l a tribute of a few dollars, under a promise of protection by the police. One Cortes passenger was robbed of 8, (..500 in n-oid dust : and another of 143 ounces >)2,500. The money was, in some cases, hid in trunks and sacks, and often carried in belts around the owners: and in the latter case the clothes weiestript from the person in a bru tal manner, and the money taken, sometimes having the victim helpless and bleeding. At the Ocean House and Pacific all the hag gage was scattered as at the depot, and more money taken in proportion, because many of the inmates of those were returning Californians. — There was among these, also, a large amount of valuable baggage, consisting ot jewelry, trink ets, crape shawls, -Vc., carried as presents. It is estimated that the haggag" .taken and destroyed was worth §20.000, brsidi-s the mo ll" v hist, which was at least §30,000. File loss of life could not he ascertained with oer:aintv. Eighteen were lying dead the next morning in and about the depot, and manv oth ers were missing and badly wounded—perhaps ten mortally. At hast thirty must have been killed and twenty wounded. Among the lat ter is the Secretary of the American Consul. Verv few of the killed were known to the Cot te#' passengers. A desperate fellow, by the name of Stokes, and one other of the Cortes passengers, were known to be among the killed, and several others missing. It "as reported that about forty natives were killed, including, several of the [wltce-. The tut lasted till near morning. It was ascertained that one woman and two children oniv were killed, though Several others Wtfehadlv wounded: one having her hand shattered to pieces, and another was shot thro' the shoulder. The mischief was ptincipally done by the police, under pretence ot keeping or der : a large portion of those killed and wound ed received shots from their musket#. Rut few others of the natives had firearms, though they inflicted most shocking and brutal wounds with tiieir sabres or cutlasses, which nearly all of them ordinarily carry. The rascals who carried muskets "by author i Itv" fired into the houses, and crowds "< inno ! cent people, who were striving to escape, with out tiie slightest excuse or inducement, except hatred of Americans and a determination to kill and rob all thev could. Th- Panama Railroad Company suffered s<- ; verelv. All the papers of tire office not only were destroyed, but the building was riddled, and the track torn up some distance from the depot, in order to secure the cars that might run in from Aspinwall, and also to prevents train from running out. It i understood that among the killed were two of the watchmen of the company. The express matter of Wells & Fargo, corn i ing by the Illinois, u as not carried over to Pan j ama with the passengers, but started on a train ;at evening. The robbers at Panama were a ! ware of this, and waited tor its arrival, expect- I ing it to run off the track torn up by them, and thus h-corne an easy prey. Just before its arri val at Panama, one of the passenger conductors ; (Williams} was taken by the natives, while watching the arrival of the train, and threaten ed with instant death unless lie would go and i meet the train and tiring it in, which he agreed to do. Tiiev swore thev would kill every man on the train. He ran and met it just before it i canm to the broken track, an.l waved a hand i kerchief as a signal to stop, and jumping onto the enjine, begged of the engineer to hack. It was instantly done, while the negroes approach ed within a few rods. The train ran back to I Aspinwall, and was thereby saved. The treas ure brought down hv the Portes was not landed ; be flare the riot, and was saved. Tha next morning the rioters, wearied and ! manv of them drunk, lav in their huts and ; boats asleep, and order was partially restored. ] The Cortes' passengers were hurried ofl early to Aspinwall, whence they embarked on the 17th for New Y'ork via Havana, on the stea mer Philadelphia. As they left Panama some of the natives were quietly overhauling their baggage ir. and around ttie depot, and they were advised not to inter fere in any v\ ay, Kst another outbreak should ensue. The disappointments, privations and other wrongs received by the Cortes passengers at the hands of the Nicaraguan Company will form a chapter of some interest, but is not immedi ately connected with the Panama riot, which u ill long be remembered by those who were on the Isthmus at the time, and many others j whose relatives and friends were murdered j there on the eventful I oth of April, 1856. A COR PES PASSENGER. [From the Aspinwall Courier, April 17.] Another of tlie.se terrible fights between the j natives and foreigners, which have occurred on j tlie isthmus several times since the emigration j to California commenced, transpired at Panama on the night ofTuesdav, the loth inst. The result was a most horrible massacre of innocent passengers' a great destruction of passengers' laggage, and a devastation of pro peity of both the railroad company and individ ual residents, near the Panama Railroad sta tion. The difficulty originated in a dispute about one dime, between an intoxicated passenger and a native, respecting pay merit tor a pit-ce of watermelon. The story is, that the native, being much ex asperated by the conduct ol the passenger, dri w a knife, on seeing which the passenger tired at the native and severely wounded him. This brought forward another native, who stabbed the passenger,and then the combatants increased considerably oh both sides f>r some time—a number were shot, and more badly cut with machetes. Through the exertions of Mr. J. \V. Johnson, the P.mama Railroad Superintendent at the Panama Station, tlie fight was then stayed tor Uj short time. Ihit, anon, it broke out with renewed violenßß and apparent organization and evident methodf which told fearfully on the natives. About this time, it began to be evident tliat spite against the railroad company, and plunder, were the chief motives of the atrocities and de predations which had been and were to be com mitted. The first affray occurred between 6 i and 7 P. M., and but brie! intervals of tolerable quiet occurred between that hour and midnight. The most terrible assault was made between 9 and 10 o'clock. The Panama Railroad counting room (inclu ding the decks ot the Pacific Mail S'eamshipj Company,) was entirely ransacked, and every- i thing of value parried ofl". Some twenty foreigners were killed, and be-j tween thirty and forty badlv wounded. Although the number of dead and wounded known is not greater than we l ave stated, we feel confident that more were killed than have been f'uund, or of whom we have any tidings. THE MARKETS.
