A part Of the crew Of the Haytien steamer
Sainave had lett that vessel in consequence of
not having. received their wages for some
months, and had started tor Jamaica. A large
number of the crew were Americans. They
had applied to the United States Consul for
aid IN recovering their dues, but were informed
that having enlisted under foreign flag they
could not claim protection from the Consulate.
The boilers of the Salnave were leaking badly,
and the vessel was at Port au Prince undergo
ing repairs.
The insurgents established in the neighbor-
hood of Gonaives had commenced to shell the
town. The commanding general had in conse-
quence of this written to the consular agents
of foreign powers at Gonaives, assuring them
that he would do all in his power to protect
the interest of their respective nationalties
leaving them free, at the same time, to adopt
such particular measures of safety as thew
might deem advisable.
Steamer Alexandra Potion was still hafora
Aux Cages, but the bombardment had not
been renewed. The previous bombardments
were directed principally against the forts
both Salnave and the American officers doing
everything they could to avoid the throwing
OF smells directly into the city, their object be-
ing to show their power and strength to de-
stroy the town. Salnave had ordered general
amnesty to every officer and functlonary OF
Aux Cages, giving Minister Hollister permis,
sion to ship away President Domnguez, ana
the commander of the British war steamer ia
son offered to convoy them fifty miles to sea,
but all had been obstnately refused.
Jacmel still held out against the government
troops. the siege being partial and ineffective.
American provisions were plentiful and were
selling at remunerative prices.
The cullivators of coffee in that part of the
island were anxiousy awaiting the establish
ment of peace to bring the produce of accumu-
lated crops to market.
AT st. Marc the insurgents were concentrat-
ing their forces preparatory to making a SIM
ultaneous attack on Port au Prince, Gonaives
ana Haytlen. Hitherto the great want has
been ammunition, of which they have lately
received large supply.
:, I1e Salnavlsts, it is said, were abandoning
the Cape as fast as they could get away.
HAVANA May 5.-News from Hayti to the
I'D ult. has been received.
The blockade of Aux Cages had been raised
The revolutionists were gaining ground in the
south. Dominguez had re-captured the towns
of Forbeck and Port Salute.
HAVANA, May 5.-Salnave bombarded Aux
Cages on the oath, without effect
ST. THOMAS.
The French steamer from st. Thomas May
1st, report that the two Peruvian monitors
were still in port The will soon sail for Mar
Unique or Barbados. Their American crews
had been discharged.
ST. DOMINGO.
engagements took place at St. Domingo on
the 18th and 23d of April, in which the forces
OF Baez were defeated by the revolutionists
and lost their generals.
Brig Macdonald, from Kingston for Phila-
delphia, with cargo of logwoOd was wrecked.
Crew saved.

Remarks-The market for fleece and pulled Wool
remains the same as noticed last week. Manufac-
turers continue to purchase wanted and desirable
lots OF fleece steady at full previous prices The
stock in the New York market is rather on the in
crease especially of pulled prices OF which are low
er There Is no encouraging feature to present in
the Philadelphia market; the manufacturers hold of
and purchase only in small lots to supply their i'm
mediate necessities. Prices of wooden fabrics con-
tnue to rule very low, and many of them are selling
below the cost of productions which must ultimately
cause many manufacturers to cease operations. In
the present condition of the goods market 1t would
be difficult to effect sales to any extent without max
ing concessions. The stock Of fine is very low but
pulled is plenty and very dull at a decline Of 1c.

LONDON, May 5.-The Chester cup was won

In the House of Commons this evening Mr..
Sullivan, the Attorney General for Ireland,
moved Tor leave to bring in bill to disable the
present Mayor of the city of Cork from acting
as magistrate. Mr.. Sullivan proceeded to give
the reason for the introduction of the bill. He
gave history of the disloyal conduct Of the
Mayor up to its elimination in the infiamma-
tory language used at the dinner recently
given in Cork to Warren and Costello, and
said that after much consideration the Govern
ment had come to the conclusion that the
present step was advisable.
Several members deprecated the course of
the government as q stretch of constitutional
power, an ordinary action at law being open
TO it for a remedy.
Sir John Gray, member for Kilkenny, and
Mr.. McGuire, for Cork, urged for giving full
against him. They complained that the action
OF the Government was based only on news
paper reports.
Mr.. Disraeli deprecated as imprudent the re-
lease of the Fenian prisoners If action for
sedtious language had been taken earlier the
present step would not have become necessary
He would not oppose the introduction of the
bill, but urged the House to consider well the
step proposed and the constitutional questions
involved.
Mr.. Fortescue, chief Secretary for Ireland
assured the House that every facility would be
given the Mayor and his friends to reply. and
the Government would take care not to give
any grOund tor complaints of injustice in the
management of Irish affairs. He intimated
that they intended to oppose the appointment
OF commissioner to investigate the conduct
Of the police in the late disturbances in Lor-
d0nderry.
After further remarks from Mr.. Gladstone
and Mr.. Gathorne Hardy in support of the
measure, leave to introduce the bill was grant
ed, and it was read for the first time. 1t was
ordered that copy of the bill and notice OF
its second reading be served ON the Mayer Of
Cork. =
