T& NEGRO MINISTER TO HAYr1 OPPOSED BY

T& NEGRO MINISTER TO HAYr1 OPPOSED BY
WHITES AND BLAcKs.-A letter from Port au
Prince to the New York Herald says:
The grand excitement here since the arrival
Of the steamer from New York is the news that
colored gentleman is to supersede the pre-
sent American minister, T. Il. Hollister. AS
there is no other minister resident here, and
as he is chief of all the foreign representatives.
in ra- k, the Charges d'Afalres from Eng land.
France and Spain. who are gentlemen OF high
social position, do not feel complimented with
the news. Tho American consuls and other
officers representing us here do not wish to
have colored man for chief. We have had,
visiting and stationed, at his port during the
last ten months, Blk American ships of war.
The commandants and the officers under them,
like the other gentlemen Of our navy. are per-
sons Of culture, and would not relish this
change. Rumor says that President Salnave
fnegro) was heard yesterday to demonstrate
with the American merchants in town against
this measure, and that the parties present all
agreed in sentiment. The president remarked
$50 the story soesJ that he already had more
black men here than he could take care OF.
He considered the black race equal to the white
race, but asked very pointedly whether our
government entertained such sentiments, and
If so, why We did not send black men to repre-
sent us in England and Fra ice? He said the
question was not what he thought about the
equality Of races, but that he did not consider
this discrimination IN favor Of Hayti to be COM
pllmentary.

The recent sad accident to the Austrian fri
gate Radelzky has sharpened the memory Of an
old Dane who was on board the Danish ship OF
the line Christian VIII, on the 5th OF April,
1919, when she exploded. Fortunately, he was
not killed, and has just given in the Vienna
Press, in all earnestness, his experience and
sensations at the time. The old sailors imag-
ination seems to be one of the best

smoke, which shut out the gun; but below me
