Beautiat Steam Frigate Niagara At Anchor Near City

The Niagara with 380 seamen aboard will gain 300 more to complete her crew and depart for Gloucester in a day or two.

Constitution Sails With Passengers and Treasure for New York and Panama

The steamer Constitution departed for Panama with 100 passengers and 408000 dollars for New York and 515000 dollars for Panama. The Panama funds, handled by a Rothschild agent, are linked to financing French troops in Mexico. In Rio de Janeiro and Valparaiso, California bound ships face delays and losses, with four clippers captured and the Donohi lost off Cape Horn, squeezing Atlantic-sourced staples from markets. Prices remain well supported amid stock shortages and rising scarcity.
