Yesterday the President transmitted a messa ge to the Senate asking the return of the nomination of Blanchard as postmaster at New Orleans in place of Lowell, the present incumbent. Some conversation took place as to the position of the latter, who was suspenaed, in case the nomination should be with- drawn. Several similar cases are before the Senate, and in order to 1x a precedent the nomination was Tejected to-day and a resolution passed declaring In substance that under the Tenure of Office bill in casé of the rejection of a new nominee the old incum- practically dead and that the victory of the triends of the administration this morning was a barren ene. Even should the resolution pass the House, aa %s believed it will soon after the holiday recess, nothing can oe done at this session by way of negotialing a treaty for the purchase of St. Domingo, and Mr, Sumner thinks a joint resolution axunexing it could not bo got through both houses, It is stated that the plan of the friends of the St. Domingo project is to convene ‘the Forty-second Congress on the 4th of March, and Keep it in session long enough to negotiate and ratify a treaty for the purchase of the island. To this end there will probably be .a determined effort to prevent the repeal of the act, whicn provides that the new Cong shall organize on the 4th of March. In the meantime the ‘speech which Sumner #elivered yesterday 1s to have an extensive circala- | on, it has already been largely subscribed | for by the democrats and the republicans who oppose the St. Domingo project. About Balf a million copies of it in pamphiet form will be Beatiered throughout the country. Mr, Sumner had mo intention, at first, of putting it in pamphiet form, Dut the opponents of the St. Domingo scheme urged Bim and he yielded to their request. Mr. Sumner | Jaughs very heartily at the idea of Zach Chandler end Mr. Conkling attompting to read him out of the repablican party, Te regards it asa od joke, but he says he proposes to “stick” and to support | the administration in everyting that he considers right. When the St. Domingo resolution Reaches the House it will be cnampioned by Ben Butler, and the opposition to it will be led by Generals farnsworth ° Logan. A spicy debate 16 bent remains without filing a new bond.

There is some speculation as to'who the President will appoint upou the commission. The | original idea of the President and Senator Morton was to appuipt members of gress, twe from the House and one from the Sonal It was the iaton+ tion to have two gentlemen who favored the project and one who opposed it, so as to give the nifnority a representation on te commission. It may be, how- ever, that the President wili appoint three cit outside of politics and public life. At all the end of the business is not yet, for Suamer is de- termined to oppose it at every step. vue President was visited to-day by many Sena- iors and Representatives, who congratulated him upon the passage ef the St. Domingo resolution by she Senate. He said, in reply, he believed the an- Bexation policy wise end prulent and thought it would gain strength as the facts became known. Bumoer an Early Friead to tho St. Domingo Treaty. There seems to be much difference of opimion among th? parties most concerned about the result of the interview between tue President, Secretary Boutwell, General Babcock, Colonel Forney and Mr, Sener, wt Mr. Sumner’s house last winter, with reirence to the Si. Domingo treaty, The im- pression \eft upon the minds of all save Sumner, as Btated tm these despatches yesterday, was that Sumner had promised to sapport the treaty. Senator Ohandler, last night, in defending the Prestdent and his Secretary, alluded to certain letters of General Babcock and Colonel Forney, in which they stated that Mr. Summer did so promt Mr. Sum- ner, in his reply to Seuator Chandler, repeated the precise words of his reply to the President, which, he said, were mediiated during the conversa | tion and were fixed green in his memory. ‘Mr. President, I am an administration man, and whatever you do Will always find in me a most care- fol aud considerate attention.” Mr. Sumner then distinctly dented that no had even wid anything to justify the idea that he would support the administration in this measure. The other partles present at the interview were of the épiuion that Mr. Sumuer did assert chat he would support the measare, in June last Gen- eral Babcock addressed a lotier to Colunel Forney asking him te give hts recollection of the conversa- tion at the time above alluded to, In reply, Mr, Forney addressed General Babcock a letter, which had been kept secret until yesterday, but a copy of which was placed in the hands of Senator Chan- dier to be used in the President's defence, The follow'ng is the letter:— WASHINGTON, June 6, 1879, My Dpar Generar-—1 was present at Mr. Sum- ner’s residence when President Grant called and @. eo the Dominican treaty to the senator, and, ough I cannot recall the exact words of the fatter, I undetstood lum to ~~ that he would oheertully support the treaty, At. the ‘ogy nated Tequest | remained to hear his explanations, and { am free to add that such is my deep regard for Mr, Bamner that his endorsement of tne treaty went Very far to stimulate me in giving it wy wn sup- por J have already sata this much to Mr. Bumner, ho, however, replies that ober mformatign, since Obtained, has shaped his present action. “‘Yraly yours, J.

Shipping Notes. The engine and boilers of the new steamboat Americus, owned by Mr R Cornell White, and designed to be run on the route hence to Stamford and Greenwich, are progressing finely at the machine works of Messrs Hubbard & Whitta- ker, foot of Adams street, Brooklyn. It is proposed to have this boat in readiness by the early opring. ‘The Staten Island ferryboats Westfield and Northfield have recently been thoroughly overhanled in engines and boilers at the tron works of Mess: thune street, North river. The Northfield took her place on the route yesterday and looked exceedingly pleasunt in ite dress of fresh paint. ‘The residents of Mott Haven and vicinity a few days ninco concluded to have apleasaut mote of communication with New.York by water, and to this end subsembed the sum of 75,000 for the purpose of building two fast-going and sub- stantial steamboats to be run from the Westchesterside of the Harlem river to a slip near the Fulton feray. It is 9 venture that wi!l undoubtedly prove very remunerative, Notwithstanding the cold snép of the past two or three days the improvement of the Battery goes steadily forward mutch to the satisfaction of all down town residents. It isa luxury even now to ramblo about the upper portion of if, contrasting the hard, smooth pavements, the neat posts and general plan in which it has been remodelled to the unsightly heaps of dirt and scores of miserable “bumracra” that a few months since made {t the meanest and most disgusting spot in the exty. The boatmen aro well cared for as the work is going on, a basin being built for them, that their boata, when not tn use, may be put therein, and not lable to being stoashed by passing vessels. ‘This was a compliment due by the Department to a hard-working class of men, who, though not w'thont their fanits, are deserving n the extreme, Act- ing upon advice, it is caid that, in addition to the many ad- mirable improvements on the Battery, suitable landing places of atone will be constructed for the convenience of naval men, sl{pmasters and mariners generally, Such places are greatly needed, and if built will greatly add to the usefulness of this—to be in the future—pleasant down town breathing place of the city. Collector Murphy yesterday received information through the State Department that the civil governor of Barcelona, Spain, had sent official notice to Henry Ruggles, U S Consul at that port, that the yellow fever had ceased ,to be an ept- demic there, and that the port is deciared to be open to the vessels of all nations coming from disinfected ports, ‘The recent improvements in Washington Market have been the means of making that part of the North river look the least bit more attractive, The lessees of the stands pro- pose other improvements, which it is hoped thoy will speed- Aly put in force. Navigation of the Hudson to Albany and Troy, and, in fact, to places further down the river, may be considered suspended for the season. The steamboats of the Feople'’s Line were withdrawn and sent into winter quarters several duysaince, The withdrawal of the boats was not so much on account of the obstructions the ice presented, but owing to unusual low water and but few passcngers and less freight to carry. The steamboat Connecticut has attempted to keep navigation open as the boats of this line did last winter, finding business enough to encourage them to per- severe, but the cold snap of yesterday cloned the river at Coxsackte, and it is feared that this will end the matter until the warm days of spring. ‘The last tows, comprising barges and canal boats, were taken up Friday last, Not in years ‘bas the water in the Hudson been so low as at the present ime. ‘The new 18 inch fog whistle, weighing 460 pounds, built at the Portland Co's works, and also a new fog yung, wero tried at Portland 20th inst by Gen Duane, Both are of brass. The fog gongis about the size of a 10-inch whistle, and differs from the whiatle in that a gong plate of brass is directly in under what would be the mouth of the bell of a whistle.

The trial was quite satisfactory, welearn, There is but one of the fog gongs in use, Marine Disasters, Sreamswe San FRANOISCO, Higgins, ne baving struck ona reef going into the ton, Bermmda, nnd while in change of a pilot, in consequence of which she ‘sunk down to hei was successfully Boot jarde, d ont ido the wharf at ed gat and Naled alongel ‘atone Hamilton Suiv QuIDING BTAR, Freeman, from Hong.
