the steamer Alvo, Of the Atlas line,
which arrived from Hayti last night, re-
ports that the Alvo left st. Marc, Hayti,
July &c. and arrived at Port-au-P Prince
the same day. When the steamer came
to anchor the noise Of Hppolvte's cannon
could be distinctly heard firing at the
town. The attacking force was at the
west of the place about two miles away.
With the aid Of a powerful glass Purser
Squire and the officers distinctly saw Hip

man -of-war Ossipee lay in the harbor OF
Port-au-Prince and near her was anchored
an English and a Spanish man.

longing in the United States and of about
40 tons burden, was there too. She car
ried few heavy guns and was in Legl-
times service. During the afternoon of
july s6 the Panama was ordered around
to where she could attack Hippolyte's
bombarding party in the right flank. As
soon as the little tug got within firing
distance she began to blaze away. She
kept it up until darkness set in. The
battle by Hppolyte's force was kept up
all night. The Alvo left the next morn.

the hundreds. 1t is said the Gatlng guns
used by Hippolyte PLAYED sad havoc with
the outskirts of Port-au-P Prince. The
officers of the Ossipee said to the people
on the Alvo that they (the Ossipee officers)
had become used to the continued firing
and did not mind il a bit
