From washington.

tion of censure was tabled, as reported at
noon, Mr.. Nelson said, although not . duel
ist, and never having fought one, he did
mean to convey the intimation that he was
responsible in any manner for what he had
said, and would claim no exemption of
any kind on account os his age
The Senators voting against tabling the
resolution concerning the chiValTie old nan
were, Messrs, Cameron. Howard, Morgan,
Morrill,, of Vermont, Pomeroy, Stewart,
Sumner, Thayer, Wilson, and Yates.
Mr.. EvaEts spoke the entire day: con-
cludes tomorrow. Mr.. EVartsy endurance
is astounding. His form indicates frailty,.
but hour after hour, without water, With
scarcely a note, his speech rolls on. Pathos, d.
invective, sarcasm, and detail artistically
following, and relieving each other wiEhoust
repetition either in matter, manner, or con-
struction. One of his sentences concludes
"If you drive the President forth, he will
be a victim Of Congress AID martyr to
the Constitution
Mr.. Brooks offered resolution calling
the managers to the bar Of the House to eT-
plain their connection with the Alta Vela
affair. The vote on the resolution will be
taken tomorrow. Intense interest attaches
to the matter.
During his speech to-day Mr.. RFartsi
caused astonishment and amusement by
quoting Radical Senators on p0ints-at issue
The most pointed was that of Mr.. Sumner
on the fugitive slave law, where the doc
trine of Jackson that the executive was the
judge of the cOnstitutlonalitY of Laws WAS
adopted by Mr.. Sumner.
Discussing the tenth article Mr.. Egarts
compared the language used by the Presi-
dent toward Congress with that used by
Congressman toward the President aud to
each other. The Senate had decided by
vote of IS to 10 that calling the President
an enemyit to his country was in order in
debate. Manager Butler had accused Man
ager Bingham of hanging on innocent
woman and Manager Bingham had alluded
to Manager Butler as 'bottled and fed with
a spoon"

From HAVANA.
| HAVANA, April 3O.-News from St. Domin-
| go is conflicting. The reason assigned by
| General Baez for not having assumed
1.-the Presidency is that the facilities author.
ized by law are insufficient to allow him to
| carry out his policy in regard to the SANTANA
bay negotiation and the Jesurun loan,
General Cormen is engaged in developing
the petroleum wealth of the Aqua.
The Samana affair preoccupies General
Baez, whose great difficulties on the subject
come from the opposition OF President Sal
nave and the umbrage of the negro chiefs.
The mission of Cabenas is to complete
President Cabrals project.
