AnMNG MERCHANT VESSELS AGAINST PRIvATEERs.
The arrangement made between Spofford, TILES
ton. d Co., and the Navy Department, for placing
one naval officer and fifteen gunners on board each
of the New York and Havana steam packets, will
go into effect Immediately. The decision Of the
Secretary of the Navy upon the application is i'm
portant, as establishing precedent which will
doubtless be followed in the case of the California
steamships, and perhaps the larger class Of sailing
vessels traversing the Atlantic coast and the Gulf
The terms proposed By the above named New York
merchants beneficial to themselves, to the ira
ding and travelling public, and to the United States
Government-tbe latter getting. by far, the best of
the bargain. The agreement is, that Spoford
Tieston & Co, shall feed the officers and men
furnished by the Government, thus saving the
United States not only the expense of two first
class steamers fully manned, but the cost OF provi
sioniug them. Each of the steamers now carries
two rified nine-pounders, throwing eighteen pound
shots, on their main deck. 1t is presumed that the
Government will consent to treble that amount,
and thus make the Havana packets equal to the
most formidable privateers. The future attitude
of the steamers will not be merely defensive, but
offensive when occasion requires and though they

they will not hesitate to pursue them to any dis.

FROM SAN DOMINGO.

Accounts from Ssmana, Santo Domingo to the
Sd instant, state that the steam-rigate Isabella
Catolica, having on board the new Spanish Snpe-
rior Civil Governor for the Colony, anchored in
port that day, after favorable passage. His Ex-
cellency debarked amid the savos of artillery and
was received by the popuIace and local authorities
with every demonstration of enthusiasm. Cen
ers Santana was i'll, but not seriously so.
BY the arrival of the brig Echo, at this port,
we have dates from Port au Prince to the 5th inst
The Spanish difficulty had been amicably arranged,
and all but one of the Spanish vessels had left the
harbor.
The Island was again quite tranquil, and COM
mercial matters were generally quiet. The Hay
tien government paid the Spaniards 5000, 200 for
insulting their flag, but the boundary question was
left open for future adjustment. The foreign mer-
chants on the Island came to the assistance of
the government and loaned them part of the mon
ey to pay the Spanish indemnity.
Merriam, one of John Browns cnrfederates at
Harper's Ferry, had been drummed off the Island
and returned to the States. He was endeavoring
to raise money to get up an insurrection among
the slaves of the Southern States, but presi-
dent Getfrard fearing a complication with the
American Government, ordered him to leave the
Island.
