BAY ARD MUM.
Regarding the Administration Toward
Hayti and the Seized Steamer

WAsHINGToN, Dec. ..
While we have reason to believe that gov I
has demanded tn. release of the steamer
Haytien Repablic, recently seized at Por. au
Prince, it is impossible to obt lin official in
formation to that effect. Secretary Bayard
declines to say anything whatever on the
subject, and when assistant Secretary Riyes
was asked he answered, Il am not at liberty
to say" Secretary Whitney said, Its
diplomatic question entirely, and | would not
have known anything about it unless the
Secretary of State had requested the use of
a Naval vessel. In this case the demand was
made for the release of the vessel in question
and it was refused we would at once have
taken steps to enforce it by sending our
7essels to that country if matters had not
reached that point, yet as we have not been
asked TO send our vessels to Hayti, some of
our vessels may go there, but SO far no
orders have been issued on the subject 3"
Commodore Walker chief of Navigation
bureau, said, "Galena, Yante and Richmond,
now at New York, could be made ready for
sea in about two weeks and Ossipee at Nor
folk in about four weeks. In case that only
one vessel was needed, the Galenn, flying
flag of Rear Admiral Luce, would proba-
bly, be selected"

ssid she visited from 100 TO ia precincts in

so, but afterwards quietly threw out the bal
lots.
She attributes freedom of the late cam

Of preachers sn Mormons and unjust treat

shonld be eourted and won, even paid for if

Notwithstanding the many thousands OF

and awaiting action on the calendars, the
members come loaded down with new meas
ares, which will make work for the govern
meai printers, ii they accomplish no other
purpose.
The nrst measure Of importance likely To
come up in the House is the Direct Tax bill,
which was defeated At the last session BY s
few nlhusters led BY Oates of Alabama.
Although there has been an impression that
the bill Was laid aside by agreement to be
taken up December and passed, this vas
not The case and Mr.. Oates and his fhbus-
ters are today talking of continuing their op-
position to the measure. As i very large
majority of the House fayors the bill it is

much longer in opposing the measure, espe-
ciAlly as it would be certain Of passage in
the next House with republican speaker.
