HAVANA, May 10.-There are
strong reasons for believing Secretary
Seward has ordered our Charge TO
Immediately demand redress for out
RACES on Americans at Monterey.
HAVANA, May 11.-Tnformation
has been received here that the
American Government has come to
a decisive determination regarding
the case of the brig j. NJ. A. Hoe,
and other vessels. Instructions have
been received by the steamer Eagle to
resist paying fines until the Spanish
Government enforced them, and then
to pay them under protest.
At Montizas, the American barque
Selma has been fined 5000 for 4 mis-
take in her manifest. The cargo
consisted of lumber and the entry
was correct In feet, but a clerical
error was made In reducing them to
metres. When the Captain General
Lersundi returns, matters will prob
ably be arranged.
HAVANA. May 11.-Advices from
Hayti state that Generals NisOge and
Saget have taken Fort Diomond and
the town Of st. Marie, and proclaim
ed Jeffrard President.
The northern part of Hayti is in
possession of Cacos.
President Salnave IS limited to the
town.
Genonvas is surrounded by adver-
saries, and will soon fall.
A deputation has been sent to
Kingston to request JeffIard to re-
turn.
It IS reported that the American
Minister had furnished money to in
stigate revolution, and it is stated
positively that Americans were in
command of the troops among
Caeos, who was well provided with !

speculation has been INDUCED in as'ie
the result of this vote, and a great va
riety Of opinions expressed. But it
is evident that the Senators have
maintained their own counsel and
no one has any definite information
with regard to the result The vote
will be the most important one ever
cast by any dehberative body, aud the
occasion will be one of the marked
events in the nineteenth centurg93
A correspondent who has had, per-
haps, as good opportunities for form
ing correct opinions as any others,
says, that seven of the following Sena-
tors must sustain JOHNSON if he
is acquitted: GRIMES, FOWLER,
FEssEEDEN, VAN WINKLE, An
THoNY, SPRAGUE, WILEY, TRUM-
BULL, HENDERSON, and FRELINGHUY-
SEN. Of this number, but one so far
has given, even to the Copperheads,
the slightest assurance that he
favors an aequittal. Such being the
case, tits rather a frail foundation for
the President or his friends to build
hopes upon.
