The EFaytien Difficulty.

THE AMERICAN MINISTER THREATENED FOR nAR-
ADJUSTED.
Special Dispatch to the Ne,O York Times
WARRINGTON, Sept 20.-Secretary Fish states
that no trouble is apprehended with the Gov
ernment of Hayti, in consequence of the hostile
demonstration recently made by mob in front
of the residence of the American Minister The
trouble arose because Gen. Cannale, the leader
of the revolution, and few of his followers,
sought refuge i'll the house of Minister Bassett,
who declined to surrender the refugees. The
action of Minister Bassett was dictated by feel
ings of humanity rather than policy, it being GER
tain that the refugees would have been summar
lily executed had he surrendered them
In the Central and South American States,
where revolutions are OF frequent occurrence,
the right OF asylum hae long been recognized
by foreign Governments as well as the States
themselves. Secretary Fish thinks this doubt
full policy, and long ago instructed the American
representative not to give it encouragement. In
this instance Caunae and his followers sought
refuge under the American Legation because it
was most convenient, aud having gained it, Min
lister Bassett was reluctantly compelled to shel
ter them.
Secretary Fish has succeeded in persuading
the Haytien Government to grant amnesty to
Cannale and his followers, provided they leave
the country, and the United States steamer Pow
hatan has been ordered to Hayti to take them off.
Cannale is still lodged at the American Lcga-
