Capt.

The commander of the fort at Serapiqui, Col. Blanco was among the first that left, at 2k P. M. During the day Col. Anderson a force lost two killed and two wounded, the latter being now able to do duty, Col. Titus' command two wounded and none killed, and tbe artil lery none. The next morning, Com. de Briesot and a volunteer called "Kentuck" went over in a canoe, pulled down the Costa Rica flag, and hoisted the "Lone Star of Nicaragua," all the enemy having abandoned the point in the night. Upwards of 400 stands of English Minnie muskets were left, scattered on the ground. Col. Frank Anderson's command crossed in the steamer and took possession of tbe enemy s works, chattels, kc, finding thirteen bodies in the principal fort, probably all killed by the artillery of Gen. Wheat. Fifty men of this command were detached for burying the dead of the enemy, which amount ed to thirty-three. Prisoners taken said they had been badly treated and worse fed, living on beans and plaintains alone. Five pieces of artillery four brass 6 lb pieces and ono 9 lb piece, with corresponding ammunition were found ; also fifty thousand rounds minie rifle of cartridges m good condition and a large quantity of damaged ammunition, 250 pairs of pantaloons, forty bushels of beans and six barrels of salt, but enough kettles and pans for 2,000 men. ; The same night the steamer Rescue, or FOlibuster, as some of the boys call her, took up the forces of Col. Titus and one 4 lb gun to the island of San Carlos, which was taken without any resistance. Tbe boat returned the stores WEALTH OF MR. BUCHANAN'S CABINET.

The ship was painted blue. - THE PEBSIAN DIFFICULTIES. The arrangement of the Persian difficul ty was proceeding satisfactorily, but the treaty was not yet signed: The proposed convention specifies that: England shall en joy equal commercial privi'eges with the fa vored nations, but rersia tor bids sending English consuls to posts on the Caspian sea ; inasmuch as treaties with. Russia forbid it. ENGLAND. Parliament proceedings were interesting. The debate on Lord Derby's motion of cen sure on the Chinese war resulted in a divis ion which stood 101 for the motion and 146 against it. I Mr. Cobden brought torward a similar mo tion in the Commons, viz : That this House has heard with concern of the conflicts which . have occurred between the British and Chi nese at Canton, and without expressing any opinion as to the extent to which tbe Chinese may have offended England, this House con siders that the papers laid upon the table fail to establish satisfactory grounds for the violent measures recently resorted to at Canton ; and that a select committee be ap pointed to inquire into the commercial rela tions with China. The debate lasted during two nights and was further adjourned. Lord ralmerston, in reply to Mr. Layard, said he was authorized by the Russian minis ter for foreign affairs to say that there was no treaty in existence between Persia and Rus sia as that referred to reoently by Mr Lay ard, and that the negotiations at Paris with regard to the Persian difficulty was not yet ended. The trade and navigation returns for Jan uary show a progressive increase. Mr. Dallas attended the Queen s levee on the 26th ult. FRANCE. Paris letters state that the Council of State had rejected the credit of five millions de manded by the War Department. SPAIN. It is stated in the ministerial organ that tbe number of vessels to be sent against Mexico, inclnding transports for ten thous and men, is about thirty. AUSTRIA. Vienna letters says that tbe ministerial council are deliberating the expediency of withdrawing the Austrian troops from the Papal dominions CHINA. Telegraphic dates from Hong Kong are to January 25th, which states 'that affairs at Canton were unchanged. Private letters state that a large Chinese fleet had attacked the English squadron, subsequently retiring in good order under cover of the forts at Canton. Admiral Seymour had burnt the greater part of the suburbs of Canton. The Chinese rebel fleet had formed a junc tion with the imperialists at Whampoa. A Paris dispatch says that letters from Macao state that the Emperor had placed in a state of seige five of the European ports of the Empire. All the Europeans on board the steamer Thistle bad been treacherously murdered by native passengers and tbe steam er dismantled and abandoned. The gover nor of Hong Kong had increased the police foree and taken precautionary measures against incendiarism. i The total exports of tea to England is set down at .41,000,000 against .54,000,000 last year. FROM INDIA. Dates had reached Bombay from Bushire to the 17th of January. The British re mained unmolested. Reinforcements were being sent from Bombay. J DENMARK.

Interesting in telligence has just been received from the State survey of the Okefenokee Samp, which covers nearly a fourth of the map of Georgia. Tbe great swamp does not appear to be a swamp after all: So far from being impeded by water,, the expedition suffered severely frcm wat of it, and were compelled to sink three wells for drinking and cooking purpo ses. The underwood also was found of al most fabulous thickness, through which they were compelled to cut their way with knives, whereby they were so much delayed as to be in danger of starvation, their supplies being exhausted: Tho most erroneous opinions have been entertained of the extent and na ture of the whole region. No published map gives any idea of its geography. The survey will prove a fortnnatu venture. The sub merged portion is found to be easily drained, whereby thousands of acres of the most val uable cotton lands in the South will be re. claimed, if STATE OF NORTH rUlWMJlA.. rmiu.H Cochtt, Court f I'leasaiKl Qurter JfesU.u.
