HAYn.
OPPOSITION TO ANNEXATION.

OPPOSITION TO ANNEXATION.
PORT-AU-PRINCE, HAYTI, March
THE Haytiens are bitterly opposed
to annexation. The Commissioners,
however, were received civilly. Ca
braI's strength consists almost wholly
in his Haytien supporters. The ques-
tiOus of debt and disputed boundary
are the most important raised since
the last dispatches. Mr.. Howe had
arranged for pretty thorough eX-
plOratiOn Of this section of Hayti, but
Mr.. Wade insisted that there was no
authority for il and it should not be
done. The second day after their
arrival here, Messrs. Wade and Howe
called upon the President and Cabinet
of Hayti. After the interchange of
cOurtesies, an informal conversation
occurred; when Mr.. Wade said he
greatly regretted not being able to
speak their language, because he
thought he could say a great deal to
allay the present feeling toward the
United States, by showing where the
Haytiens misunderstood the United
States. President Saget earnestly
replied that the educated class in
Hayti fully understood and appreci-
ated the condition OF the United
States, but that a large class only re-
membered the slavery which existed
there, and they had themselves been
slaves and it was impossible to intiu-
ence them. The President is not eX-
pected to visit the Commissioners, on
account of the general and popular
feeling against their presence. Wade
is anxious not to cOmplicate matters
by arming Cabral here, wishing to
avoid all appearances, while in Hayti,
OF prosecuting investigations looking
TO annexation.

EARTHQUAKE.

Property.

From the New York Herald J
HONOLULU, S. l., March AT
seven minutes past ten O'Clock on the
evening Of February 18th, a very So
we're shock of earthquake was expert
enced at these islands. With few
exceptions the walls Of all the stone OF
adobe buildings were injured. The
cottage buildings at PunahOa are
damaged extensively. Many persons
rushed into the streets from their
beds.
Three distinct motions were felt
first shaking horizontally, then per
pendicularly, and the finish was q
distinct wave motion from the south
west. The violence OF the shock
lasted twenty seconds, the whole fully
a minute.
At Lahailza much damage was done
TO buildings. The Seminary build
ings suffered most, the walls being
shaken TO pieces, though they did not
fall.
At McKee's plantation q train Of
sugar kettles was badly injured.
Other localities did not suffer much.
At MOlOkai, nearly all the stone
" ais " CAD &c E4EAAF anu AAAN II olAAN w
a building thrown down. The road
TO the Leper Asylum was destroyed.
On Lauaia, the shock was very
severe. CIefts have been opened on
different parts of the island, the val
ley being full Of masses Of earths and
rocks, shaken from the mountain
tops.
On Hawaii but little damage was
done. The HilO and Kan districts
received a slight shaking. The vOlca-
no is very active, but was evidently
innocent Of participation in the earth
quake. Parties on two different islands
state that bright light was visible in
the eastern sky. Chunnie5 on sugar
plantations suffered little. Several
shocks have been experienced since,
but they were not severe.
The labor SUestiOn will soon be set
tied. Two companies Of Chinese have
landed here, seeking WOrk-One from
China and one from Tahiti.

WASHINGTON.

DIFFERENCES or OPINION IN THE
JOINT HIGH COMMISSION.
WASHINGTON, March l6.-Sessions
Of the Joint High Commission are
held daily. Fears are prevailing in
some quarters that the recent discus
sion has developed differences Of Opin-
ion which may prevent q peaceful
settlement. In reply TO D question,
yesterday, one Of the American Com
missiOners said, In a significant man
neF, II the commission was able to
reach satisfactory conclusions at all, it
would terminate its labOrs BY the
middle of April. 1t Is believed that
the difficulty lies in the inability of
the English Commissioners to meet
the preliminary requirements for ne
gOtiatiOns stated BY the American
Commissioners as to the Alabama
liabilities.

RADICAL CAUCUS.

other caucus this afternoon to con-
slider tie question whether lt would
be advisable 10 enact a bill for the

inexpedient to take any action on the

should concur in the House resolution
for adjournment next week. Among
