IN DISTRACTED HAYW.
THE PRESENT REBELLION ETI-
IDENTIFY NEAR Frs END.

Hyppolite and His Army of Rebels Sit
Near Port au Prince and Ready to
Pounce Upon the City at Given
Signal-Legitime's Forlorn Condition,
Surrounded by Traitors and Human
Vampires.
New YORK, June 27.-The first authentic
news from Hayti in two months came yes
terday. The steamer Prince Wilhelm which
left Port au Prince June 20, arrived yester.
day and brought twenty-five merchants
who say it is only a question OF time when
Hyppolite's army will drive Legitime and
his friends from Port au Prince.
The reason they left Port au Prince was
that affairs in Hayti have reached such
point that business is out of the question.
Everything is stagnant, and the town is
over.run with rufians. There is almost no
money, and those who can in any way get
hold OF little. are leaving the country.
Provisions are high. Flour is selling for
$40 a barrel, and the poorer classes suffer
for the necessaries of life, and are on the
verge OF an insurrection.
In the hills behind Port au Prince the
armies OF Hyppolite lie encamped, and the
city is in a state OF siege.
STATEMENT OF A NEW YORKER.
Among the passengers on the steamship
Wilhelm was c. B. Nileson, resident of
this city. who, four months ago, went to
Hayti to enter the employ Of Legitime as
engineer OF man-of-war. He said he
because he found the
situation there too warm for
him. Legtime stood but little
chance against Hyppolite, whose army was
well equipped, and numbered 10000
stronger. When the speaker left, Hyppo-
lite's troops were within four miles Of Port
au Prince by land. and fourteen miles by
sea. He said the reason for Hyppolite
not rushing on Port au Prince Immediately
was because he was awaiting a signal from
friends in the city. Legitime's former
commander.in-chief, General Piquant,
evacuated Grand Salien for a considera-
ton of $3.50, 900, and succeeded in leaving
the island with the money.
THREE MINISTER'S OF WAR
had held sway within as many months,
and one of these, General Anselm Pro-
port, appropriated $35O,OOO OF the gov
money and resigned.
As to the Clyde steamer Ozams being
captured by Haytien gunboats, the truth
of the, matter was, said Wilson, that the
vessel was only held q little over three
hours and was released when Captain Kel.
logg, OF the United States steamer Ossippee,
made demand upon Legitime. At first
the demand was refused except under
condition that Ozama would not 60 to
Gonaives. Captain kellogg wrote on the
back of Legitime's note that il the vessel
was not released within five hours and
Sc, 900 paid over by Legitime he would
lombard the city. The demand was i'm
complied with and the 1000
paid to Captain Kellogg.
