Released on Bonds.

Rev. H. HI. Hayden-ROndS of Five
 Thousand Dollars.
 The Rev. MT. Hayden was liberated from durance vile yesterday afternoon at about half-past one o'clock he having been admit ted to bail in the sum of $5,Ooo, Messrs. Watrous and Hubbard becoming his sureties He had been an inmate of the county jail for about year and three months. The bond matter was fixed at the office of State Attor- ney Doolittle, the prisoner being present, af- ter which he returned to his quarters at the jail, where he made arrangements for the re- moval of such of his housekeeping effects in his cell were his own personal property, and bade adieu to the officers of the institu- tion, whom he thanked heartily and spiritedly, expressing indebtedness for many kindnesses and courtssies shown. Lighting cigar, one of quantity left for him by some friend at his quarters, he was soon on his way to the residence of Mir. and Mrs. Brownson on Wooster street, which has been the home of Mrs. Hayden during the trial. Mrs. Hayden was away at Madison, whither she went in the morning on a brief visit to some friends, hav- ing planned to return in the evening, when also her daughter Emma, who has been stop ping in Fair Haven, was to be brought over and all the members of the family were to have reunion. The bail matter was arranged one day sooner than expected, and the reunion was pretty little surprise party for her. It came of according to programme, and MT. Hayden again saw his children whom he had deprived himself of seeing while in prison, not wishing to have them recollect him in cell. The plans of MT. Hayden for the present, friends state, are seclusion and rest for few days, after which he will devote himself to arranging for the sale of his autobiography, which it is expected will be forthcoming from the press at Hartford in a short time. Also, after a short stay in this city, his plans include visit of a day or two to friends in Madison, and thence a trip to visit his father and mother at Marthas Vine yard. After disposing of his book he medi- tates engaging in some employment which will be congenial and supporting, with his future place of residence to be a matter for future decision. MT. Hayden was taken by surprise at the bail matter being effected yes- terday, not supposing thatit would be arranged until today which was the time originally fixed, but it being more convenient for the lawyers to get at the matter earlier, the busi- ness was done one day ahead of time. The opinion of the States Attorney was averse to detaining the prisoner longer in confinement, the recent trial having been so elaborate and the proof not sufficient to warrant further detention. This was agreed to, the consulta- tion being had with Messrs. Watrous and Hubbard, and the telephone was called into operation, by which the news having been communicated to the jail, the prisoner was brought down, his escort being MT. Birdsey. Mir. Hayden's mother was with him in his cell when the news came to him to come down and be released. The father chanced into MT. Hubbard's office directly after the son had been telephoned for, and happiness beamed from his honest face at the intelligence that his son would be free man in fifteen min utes. He lost no time in repairing to the State Attorneys office to witness the welcome ovant
