fdeuce In Captain Comstock. and paid
no attention to his orders. An in
diguation meeting was held on the
Colorado, which passed resolutions
that In their opinion the wreck
of the Golden City was due to inca
pability aud gross carelessness by the
commanding officers, and much an
necessary suffering ashore can be
traced to same source. The passengers
with but few exceptions reached here
by the Colorado last night; thelrsoag-
gage and treasure was left on the
beach under proper guard.
The roll call aboard the Colorado
showed the following steerage pas
sengers missing: Alice Stller, Michael
Donavan, Alexander McP Pherson- +.
Angel, Frederick Clark, John Abel,
Walter Addison, j. s. Roach, Joseph

reported that others remained IN
camp, which leaves nine missing
TheTeqwere ninety-five names on the
steerage roll, and six or eight paid
passengers, whose names are not
added to the supposed missing
1t is reported that resolutions, con-
demning Capt. Comstock, were un-
just. Only part of those aboard the
Golden City approved them. He
should be given credit for having res
cued every passenger.
The sufferiugs Of the passengers OF
the Golden City, on the march from
the scene of disaster to Santa Maria
Bay, to take the Colorado, is described
as terrible. They had no water, and
but little hard bread. Old men. wo-
men and children walked twenty-five
hours over rocky mountains, under a
burning sun, and arrived at their des-
tination. entirely prostrated with fa-
tigue. Every passenger has his YER
, sion, but all agree to the principal in
cidents.
When all reached the land. one
boat rigged sail, and manned by six
or eight men, was sent TO sea, to look
out for the Colorado, but it is sup
posed missed that steamer IN the
night time. Accounts differ as to the
number Of passengers missing; some
say nine, and some fifteen. The latter
is considered nearest correct.

New York, March 2.--The Worlds
Port au Prince correspondence says
that Rear Admiral Porter, command
ing United States North Atlantic
Squadron, entered the harbor of Port
au-Prince On the 9Th inst, with the
flagship Severn, and the ironclad Die
tator; and upon landing he had an
interview with the Haytien authori-
ties. He announced that the United
States had formed an alliance with
President Boez, of San Domingo, and
that he had been sent there to say
that any aid given to Cabral would be
considered an act of hostility towards
the United States, and would provoke
hostilities In return, and that the Uni
ted States Government was deter
miSed to use all its power to prevent
any aid being given to Cabral, and he
had been sent 20 these waters with
sufficient force to carry this determi
nation into execution, aud that he
would carry out his instructions
where this succor was carried to Ca
bral, under the Haytien or any
other flag. This menace crea-
ted much excitement IN Hayti
and was regarded In some quarters as
an act of war. The Admiral, after
the interview, steamed of to Cape
Haytia. The Haytiens assert that the
Eugli5b vessels are conveying support
to the Cabral Islands, with concur
renee ofthe British Admiral, and that
If Admiral Porter is consistent
in warning of all spmpathizers, with
Cabral, he will necessarially come IL
conflict with the British, in those
waters.

Deweesf, GOlIOday and Mungen.

Special to Cincinnati Gazette.l
Immediately after the call of the
States and Territories for resolutions,
In the House to-day, an opportunity
to get in designations occurred, which
was embraced by Deweese, of North
Carolina. and Golladay, of Kentucky,
Both of these gentleman by this trick
escaped the Congressional gallows By
about an hour.
The facts in Golladay's case are,
that the committee, on Saturday, re-
called Haldine, the father of the cadet
who was appointed at first, He still
insisted that no money was paid
Golladay, and asked to be dis
charged, that he might GO home
to keep notes in bank from
going to protest, but the committee
replied that he would be kept six
months if need be; longer, if he did
not tell what he knew Upon this he
asked to consult with some of his
friends, and on leaving the room,
went directly to Golladay and report
ed, Thereupon, Golladay came up
and asked for a delay. This was
granted, aud at the earliest mo-
ment this morning, his resign alton
| was d0DOu1G6U dt tue OACAE 0SoA
His counsel had, previous to the de-
termination to resign, collected al
authorities bearing on the matter to
show that no Congress had power t
deal with any member for irregularl-
ties committed while the accused was
a member of previous Congress.
To day Hon. William Mungen wa
found to be implicated. The irregu
larity in his case was the smallest ye
developed, as the price involved wa
only three hundred dollars. Th'
worst feature of the case for hom
, consideration is that the boy appointe.
was the son of prominent Republi
: can. On the cross. examination
Mr.. Mungen confined himself almos
! entirely TO sseertaining whether th
= boy appointed was really son of Re
i publican. fact that Mr.. Mungen wa
: not aware of till the investigatio
brought it out.
The committee will report on d.
weese to morrow, and ask the Houl
to pass the same resolution as
