UNITED STATES FRIGATE TENNESSEE, Orr Por? AU PRINCE, Hayti, March 9, 1871. Sti de!ay—incomprehensible delay! Kept atan- ‘hor in this delectable harbor, where filth and stench, Doth in the streets and in the miserable government, alike breed rottenness and disease, At three clock yesterday the steamer Nantasket steamed tnto this harbor, having left Puerto Plata the morn- tug before. Professor White determined not to await ‘he arrival of the Tybee, which might not reach there for several (ays, 80, collecting together all the scat- tered parties who had been traversing the country @nd who rendezvoused at Puerto Plata, they sped round to jointhe Tennessee, Her arrival caused the greatest delight among our party, who bad be- come heartily tired of this unsocial ayd unsightly town; and as we have ouly beon waiting for her to come we looked forward to our guickly leaving for ome with certainty. The Haytiens, who have fooked with great suspicion upon the Tennessee— @eeming ler object to be hostile to their petty government—are now no doubt doubdly @iarmed at the presence in their harbor of another American man-o/-war. Dr. Howe, Secre- tary Burton, Fred Douglass and son, with several others, were taking dinner at Minister Bassett’s ‘when she arrived, and from his residence, which 1s located on the mountain side, about a mile and 4 halt distant from the city, she could b> distinetly Seen coming into tie harbor. Our momentary joy at the thought of our speedy feturn to the United States was increased upon the ‘@rrival of Professor White, who, upon his arrival, ‘greed with Ben Wade at the outset upon the policy of making the most direct course home; the ‘Whole thing seemed to be tully arranged, and Captain Temple was instructed to make preparations for a start, But Oh, the perversity and instability of those erratic minds of the dyspep'ic Howe and the pedantic White! What is decided upon one hour is Wery apt to be changed the next, and although they ©annot agree upon any line of policy themselves they both unite tn defeating, by outvoting, the good fommon-sense propositions ef Mr. Wade, who sees wleariy that, having now accomplished the business for which Congress sent them out here, and having thelr report almost completed, they should re- ‘urn witheut delay, and stop any further expenditure of time and money, which can result in nothing of any importance to the subject. They {ct as though they were disposed to cater to their ‘Own enjoyment for a while, until the weather mode- fates in the North, There is a general sentiment of @issatisfaciion by everybody on board at their child. tsh actions, and many expressions of disgust aro amanifested. Ben Wade is thoroughly displeased at their dilatory and wavering course, and ts determined not to remain here any fonger himself, whatever the others may do, During the whole trip the personal feelings aud dispositions of the three Commissioners have been antagonistic, and, although they will undoubt- ree upon the general result of their mission, y a Separate Course of reasoning and uiferent points of view by each. Ido ble to settle upon apy report, Dr. Howe being already engaged ‘ug Out a voluminous docament, in which rts with erratic rapidity from the questions at 88 it In a humanitarian point of x theoretuc and dogmatic, it Wil doubiless indicate the manner by which he @rrives at nis conclusions; but it would render any ordinury mind insane to Tollow out his ratiocina- fions. Proressor White being a young man of much @mbition and great literary attainments, and presid- ing over so prominent an institution of learning a3 the Cornell University, and being instigated and aided by his still more youthful friend and ambitious compecr, Professor Crane, naturally desires fo ventilate in his report’ the proper amount of college erudition, which may-—give them both a distinct . prominence before the country at large and serve as an immense adver- Gsement for their beloved university, These things do not suit ihe tastes of Ben Wade, who is thoroughly straightforward, and believes in stating those things Wluch he jeels, and writing words with proper and well understood meaning. He also has been en- poze 1n writing @ report, Which 1s now completed, Which the facts are stated with clearness and dis- from enurely mot think they will even be jount Sinctness, Without fourish or sentiment; but 4 ao not doubt that the country at large will appreciate it as a document of worth ‘8s well as weignt. He is now nearly ready for the ®ther two Commissioners to sign it, and if they Would do 80 it could be presented to Congress Within two weeks from this date. Judge Burton has been treated with a coldness ana want ef con- fidence by Commissioners Howe and white which, ‘while evincing a great want of courtesy to his po- sition as Secretary Of the Commission, snows also & reat lack of Judgment on their part in ignoring his unsel and assistance, which would be of it service to them on account of his well known legal g@ccomplishments and his famillarity with dipio- Matic adairs, as well as from the fact that he was specially selected by the President for the position he holds. THE NEWS FROM HOME. As we read the various statements aneienea fo the papers of the United States, regarding our re- ported loss, there was much indignation felt and maniiested that the orig:nators of them coula act in Bo cold-blooded @ manner, and General Banks re- celved many back-handed compliments for utteriug in the House of Representatives his ominous and Btartling remarks about the worthlessness of as safe & ship as ever started from the harbor of New York.

CABRAL, Arrival at Kingston—Continuation of the Little Dificalty Among the Commissiourre— Sights on Shore—Coaling a Steamer— Hingston—An Operatic Performance—Prac- tical Amalgamation—The Audience Half White and Halt Black—A Like Scene at Church. Orr Kinasroy, March 11, 1871, We left Port au Prince at half-past two o’clock yesterday morning for Kingston, having the Nan- tasket in our company, and arrived here to-day at three P.M. This movement is the result of a sort of compromise wetween Ben Wade and the two other Commissioners, he flatly refusing to stay any longor at Port ou Drinne. and stating his datarmina tion to go homo by the first opportunity, leaving whem to summer it out there if they choose to stay. In order to appease the wrath ef the old veteran they decided to go to Kingston and telegraph to Washington for instructions, If the repiy was for them to go home, then home they would go; but if no such mandate was received, then they wouid return to Port au Prince or wher- ever their inclinations might lead them, and enjoy themselves for another month or iwo, until the snow and ice shoud have passed away in ihe North, and they could return without purchasing new over- coats nor shiver with the cold. Old Ken Wade sug- gested thut they had better sai directly for Key | Sceue of enjoyment and excitement, West, there take in coal, and from thence proceea straightway home. But no; that could not be Key West direct, where we could coal at one-laif theexpense. The trip here, including the coaling of the Nantasket, will cost not mach less than $3,000 In addition to what was actually neces- sary; for wé shall have to purchase at least four hundred tons of bituminous coal at Kingston at fifteen dollars per ton, making $6,000, while at Key West the same amount of anthracite coal can be purehased at about eight dollars per ton, maktlag only $3,200 dollars. Econ- omy is one of the hobbies of Commissioner Howe; yet I fear thai all the old shoes and hats which he ‘wants to have turned in for sale for the beneft of the government will hardly compensate for this un- necessary outlay of money. Wiule writing I am just informed that the Commissioners have deter- mined to simply telegraph to Washington that the Tennessee is bound home and is coaling here. This shows that they have again changed thelr minds, True, tis was to have been expected, as they have nyt adhered to any fixed line of action for two whole days ata time since our arrival at Samana, yet this is brougat about la such @ manner that it is worth relating. Upon reaching Kingston a meet- ing was called for the Commissioners and they all ‘went into their private cabin, The proposition was then made to Mr. Wade to send a telegram to Washington, to the effect that if the President desired their immediate return to the United States that would go, but that they desired to remain a couple of weeks longer. Mr. Wa‘lo refused to have anything to do with such a telegram, stating that uf it was sent, the only reply that the President would or could make would be that he had nothing to say in the matter, they beng supposed to know when their business was finished and what their du- ties were. ‘Turning, then, 1n an indignant manner upon them he informed them that it was their duty, aud the requirements of thelr resolution and of commen sense to retarn home without delay aud make their report to Congress, as they had nothing more to attend to, He said that he was | going home by the first opportunity, and they might send their telegrams and do as they chose. Finding that the old man was thoroughly determined they then asked him to write suchh despatch as would sult himself; wher geized a pen and wrote the following:—' bound home by way of Key West. All well. Coal- | ing were.” Much to ts astonishimeut they agreed to have ft sent, and thus the farce was concluded, | The result, however, is four or five days’ lost tune aud a heavy expense cutirely unnecessary. Sunpay, March 12, 18 Immediately upon our arrival at this place a num. ber of correspondents went for the telegraph office | to supply their respective papers with the principal | items of news. The Associated Press des; of course concurred in, but there were certain mat- ters of local interest which would require attention | various papers of the large cities.

FREE NEGROES’ WORK. Almost the sight which greeted me upon landing Was one as novelas anything I had ever seed, Ali Uhgiish mail sieamer was lying at @ coal wharf receiving coal, which was carried on board in baskets, borne on the ends of an indiscriminate mixture Of negro men and women. Neither sex had on any more clothing than was necessary, in most cases & single garment was the extent, the men With pautaioons which were rolled up to thelr npon he | Tennessee | | permitted, and so for Kingston we started. | Of course, we all felt enjoy ao visit to this well known fertile island; but, as a matter of time | People. would willingly favor annexation. and expense, it is at present absurd and wrong. | cluse of this feeling 1s that the present govern- It will considerably delay our return home, as it | ment would only take acouple of days longer to run to | i | thelr African greatest rivalry manifested, not only between the Sexes, but between Individuals, to do the most work, and, consequently, get the most pay, for I understood they were paid by the basketful.

We nave been told that here the ne- groes had been freed and left to govern Hhempelves, and what was the result? A condition of abjec' poreray and a return to thelr original savage cond) jon.

The theatre building is a rude structure, of medium size, capable of nolding about 600 people, It is sel- dom used, I was told, whether on account of a ir attendance or the objection of the citizens to have such immoral things in their midst Ido not know. If their performances were no better generally than the one we heard, I admire ther wisdem in not baving many such iuficuions. The dress circle was comfortably filled with well dressed people, among Whom were a large proportion with a Jewish cast of countevance. Some of the female faces were quite tine looking, and the red-coated British oficers devoted to the pretty faces much more at- tention than to the music. Quite prominent among the audience also were the blue uniforms and bras3 butions of our American oficers, who were present in force, and whose fine lithe appearance compared favorably with the burly and more solidly-bulit Eng- lshmen, One great novelty to us was the thorough interniingling of colors. Side by side would sit the beautiful and stylishly-dressed white belle and her darker skinned aud curiy-haired rival Ex- President Geffrard, of Hayti, with his black face and short, curling white hair, was sitting sur- rounded by a bevy of white beauties, who were pay- ing him the most devoted attentions, I think the audience were about half white and half colored, Tanging through all the various shades of com- plexion. This may sound strange to American ears, and it really looked strange to our eyes, yet it 1s, nevertheless, an undisputed fact, that here the prejudice against color, while it may exist among the aristocratic class, does not show itseli among the business peopie, and the surface of their social and political estab- lishinent does not seem to be very violently agitated in consequence. 1 observed this singular commin, lng of colors more particularly at the parish churei on Sunday evening. Perbaps if there is any one place more than another where soclal prejudice js apt to exist it is where men and women meet to worship God, and to projess those penrinenhs of universal love and fellowsnip which they are 100 apt to show exists only in name and not in practice, Here, hewever, at tms high- voned English church, one could see sitting in the same peW, and perhaps reading out of the same prayer book, the white and black brethers and sisters of the flock, with at least no outward mant festations of disgust toward each other. The minis- ter was white, but aid not address nur point his morality at one class more than another. I think that even here the proportion was about even be- + long, revived to @ certain extent, He had discovered four men and four women at one time engaged in the delectable pastime of eating human flesh, and they being caught im tho act, he had shot them. This reiigion—It it can be so termed—was en- couraged by the whives in the days of slavery, tt uickly elevated on the heads of the | bemg their policy to keep up everything like super- stitions and iguorance, a3 it made them more easily managed, Getfrard spoke in gioomy terms of the present condition of Hayt, and seemed to think the | that aubitious persons there would ultimately ruin the country, Atte’ partaking of some wine with him, during which he proposed @ toast to the great republic, we took our departure, A SUGAR PEN, Continuing now 1n a northeasterly direction in a short time we came to the pen of @ colored man Db; the name of Louis Verley. ‘This word pen is in Jamaica to de ate & country seat, farm or Plantation, and with such a meaning It is uni- versaily used. The pen we now visited comprised several hundred acres, of which 260 acres were planted in cane, which was Cats foely, ‘Tne mangion was delightfully situated near the cenwe of & Senet valley, which extended for several miles, with a high background of mountains, whose sides were ridged in & confused and pic- turesque manner. ‘The grounds immediately surrounding the house were ornamented, and the approach. was by 8 broaa carriage way ext dinghy well kept, le were w the evidences of comfort and Juxury to be found in any gentieman’s house.

It comprised everything the heart could wish, and our enjoyment was much increased by the artistic vocal and instrumental music of bis accom- plished daughters. On our way back to the city we stop at the dwelling, and were introduced to the family of Mr. Pearne, the American Consul, who was acting as our chaperone. During our stay here we have indeed been under many obligations to this gentle- man for his attentions and kind assistance, On Tuesday morning Mr. Fulton and myself, by invitation, accompanied Mr. James Gall and his ‘Wife to Stony Mill, which 1s situated on the summit of & mountain, about nine miles from Ki We drove along a J ~macadaimized road ina northerly direction, which was crowded with black people, mostly women, walking coward the town, each carrying on her head an immense load ol fruits aud yegetables for the market, The loads consisted princpally of yams, sweet potatoes, oranges and bananas. In the centre of each load was an empty bottle, which was to be filled with rum for home consumption, after their markeung was disposed of. Some of ‘these people, I was 1n- formed, had travelled thus about thirty miles; bat they showed very liitle signs of fatigue, and all wore smiling faces and were (to all appearance) a strong and healthy class. The women all had their frocks 100} up @ strong cord ing around them, twereby allowing perfect freedom to their limbs 10 walking. We also met a number of coolies, wno were readily distinguished =by their straight, coal black hair.” Many of them wore ornaments in the nose and apout their fect. All along the roads the fields were pro- tecied by fences of cac.us, of which there were several varieties, the most common being & long ciub-shaped stem, which was ‘trimmed with muc! regularity, A number of convicts from the pent- tentlary were Rh im mending the reads and keeping them in order; they wore @ coarse cotton sub, each stamped with @ number and the word “penitentiary” upon it, About four miles from the city we entered the parish of St. Andre and pald a hurried visit toa church about 200 years old, which nad some curious old tombstones, From one tablet tween the colors, and every shade of complexion bie visible.

KINGSTON, March 16, 1871, We have now been five days at this place, and have received the kindest possible reception from the authorities and people of the place. We have been regaled with balls and ocher entertainments, have been taken around to visit the noteworthy ob- Jects of interest, and nave received parties of ladies and gentlemen on our vessel, where, to the excellent music of our band they, with the young ofMlcers of the ship, have enjoyed the pleasure of the dance, making up a continual We have talked ireely of our annexation mission, and have unexpectedly found a strong feeling on the part of the inhabitants of Jamatca to also unite their desti- periectly willing to | mies with the United States government. I have ana | been repeatedly told that at least four-fifths of the The in Jamaica 1s a perfect The Governor, Sir John Peter Sepoy-destroying notoriety, has oflicially de- clared himself to be the law, and while there 1s no doubt that the istand is prospering at present under his administration, yet it is galling to the people to be subjected to the whims and orders of one man. This manifestation of their desire to be united with us was, however, voluntary on the Part of the people; and, while we did not deny the probability of such an event taking place, we of- fered them no particular encouragement. It was merely an evidence} of the furor that will undoubt- edly pervade the whole West Indies in case our gov- ernment should decide to annex Dominica, AN INTERVIEW WITH GEFFRARD, On Monday morning party, composed of Com- missioners Wade and White, Fred Douglass, Mr. Hitt, Mr. Fulton and your correspondent, took a drive under the auspices and at the invitation of the American Consul, Mr. Pearne. After first driv- ing through various streets, in order to obtain a look at the town, we went out a well kept road some distance from the bullt up portion, and called upon ex-President Goffrard, ot Hayti. We entered his house aud were introduced to himself, his wife and daughter, Geffrard ig a shade or two darker than Mr. Dougiass, with white hair, a courteously commanding manner, and a contented appearance gencrally. His eye 1s rather piercing, yet pleasant. His age I shouid judge to be about htly, He was neatly dressed and acted the part of host In an exceedingly graceful manner. His wile ds almost white, rather portly, with thin black hair, periectiy straight, Sie was dressed in white, with an exceedingly rich purple silk shawl, having a deep border of heavy lace, thrown around her shoulders, The daughter was a graceful girl of avout eighteen, With a light complexion and pleas. ant countenance. We were shown into a room Which would vie in elegance of furniture and luxu- rious adornments with any private estavlisnment Iwaseverin, The floors, in accordance with the universal custom here, were waxed and polished to such a degree that they looked like varnished ma- hogany. Massive mirrors, large and well executed oll paintings, mosuy Pte ng ornamented the walls. Rich lace curtains were hung at the win- dows, a beautiful inlaid table in the centre of the roow sustained handsomely bound books aud a va- vieiy Of arucles of vertu. The furniiure was oi te richest possible description, and the general effect indicated the ighest luxury and retuned tastes. The conversation was in French, and was trans ed Professor While, Without any formal sree king a general conversatiun was entered nto.

We were shown through his garden, where we saw quite a variety of our Northern vegetables growimg finely: Among them were onions, turnips, radishes, potatoes, cab- bage, caulifower, lettuce, artichokes and tomatoes, Some of the tomatoes, which were mpe, were quite large and fine looking.

UNITED STATES CIRCUIT COURT—IN EQUITY. The Will of Commodore Balubridge, Before Judge Blatchford. Mary T. B. Jandon vs, The Nattonal City Bank, Wultam B, Duncan, Charles B. Jandon and ‘Samuel Jandon.—The complainant is the daughter of Com- modore Bainbridge, who died in 1833, leaving a will. The testator, by this will, after bequeathing certain legacies, appointed Wullam Lynch and Hugh Cal- houn as trastees of the residue of his estate. Amon, other things he directed them to invest a portion 0! the residue in truss, the interest to be paid 2 ie ge Mary T. cents. for her sole use and benefit auring her natural life, and at her death the amount Invested to be divided equally among her children. The trustees, on their own “mcg y: were discharged from their trust, and, 3 ay, 1835, Samuel Jandon was appointed truste ‘under the will, and still acts in that capacity. During the ‘years 1867 and 1868, for his own use and benefit, dud without authority, it 1s alleged that he obtained money from the National City Bank and from Duncan, Sherman & Co., giving as security therefor shares of the stock of the Raritan Canal Company, of the value of over hehe These shares he held in trust for the plaintiff, and he sold during the same years $5,600 worth of the five- twenty United States bonds, attached, of the value of which he Sppropriaied to his ewn use. Tho petition of the plaintiff was that the National City Bank and Dunean, Sherman & Co. be compelled to return to the trust the shares of stock recelved by them as se- eurity, and that Jandon be removed from his trustee- ship and be required to account for the property dis- posed of by him. The defence on the ae of Dun- can, Sherman & Co. aud the National City Bank is that when they received these shares as security they did not know that Jandon held them as trustee. The latter was not represented by counsel. The Judge took the papers and reserved his decision. The Erie Railway Litigation—The Motion for an Injunction to Restrain the Issue of New Shares.

Controversy Between Banks as to the Pay- * ment ef Forged Checks. Before Judge Sutherland, Stuyvesant Bank vs, National Binking Associa- tion.—The fundamenia! facts upon which this action is brought have been published, and will be renem- bered as a striking instance of au adroit and suc cessful mancuvre in getting money upon forged checks. In June, 1867, 8 very gentlemanly appearlug man cailed atthe Stuyvesant Bank, gave his name as L. De Figiniere, of 596 Broadway, and said he would like to open an account in the bank. He signed his naine in the signature book, was given a deposit book and checkbook, and shortly after a young man, representing himself to be his clerk, depcsited a check claiming to be drawn by White, Morris & Co., of Wail street, to his order and en- dorsed by him. This check was sent to the de- fendants’ bank, and by them passed through the Clearance House. There were four suca checks de- ited, amounting to $10,546 63, and checks dul rawn on them amounting to $10,042 25, and paid by the Stuyvesant Bank. The checks deposited in the bank proved to be forgeries, and the man presenting them proved to be one James De Moru and not the De Figiniere then doing business at No. Broadway. The present sult is brougnt to recover from the defendafts the amount of these checks. It is claimed by the plaintiffs that it was the defendants’ business to ascertain the genuineness or otherwise of the names signed tothe checks. Itis insisied by the defendants that they are in no way to be held accountable for the payment of the forged checks, Tne case is still on, and promises to con- tinue threugh several days, SUPREME COURT—SPECIAL TEAM. The Assessments for Extension of Madison Avenue. Before Judge Ingraham. Lee etal, vs, The Mayor, &c.—A decision in this case, referring to assessments for the extension of Madison avenue, thg leading facts regarding which and the arguments upon which have been published in the HERALD, was given yesterday. It will bo re- membered that by the acc of the Legislature of 1813 assessments for opening streets and avenues were allowed to cover both blocks adjoining such opening. In 1816 another act was passed enlarging such area of assessment so as to embrace all the lots on strects or avenues extended along the whole line of the street or avenue. On the old.map of the city Madi- sop avenue was only laid out as far up as Elghty- sixth street. In 1867 the extension of this avenue to 120th street was authorized by a special act of the Legisiature. ‘he plaintiffs, who are owners of lots below Elghty-sixth street on adison avenue, — havin, been assessed for such further cXtension, brought suit to have the same vacated. The lea on their behalf was that the act of 1816 did not apply to the opening of any streets jor which provision was not made in the original way. A demurrer was made to this, and upon this demurrer the Judge rendered his decision, The opinion ts very bricf, and |s as foliows:—The provision making this part of Madl- son avenue one of the streets of the city in like manner if the same had been laid out by the commissioners makes it subject to the same rules in Met as are applied to streets laid out on the map. The limitation as to assessments on lots beyond half the block I understand as applicable only to streets adjoining the portion of the avenue opened. Where the avenue kas been partiy Opened lots on the aves nue and the Atala streets so opened are not ex- eluded from liability to assessment. The plaintif’s lots come within the lattet class, If so, the asses3- ment is not illegal.

Forging Richmond County Bonds—Twe Hun, dred Fcrms with Coupons Seized=A Lucky Arrest for the Supervisors. \ A singular case of bond forging was brought un- der the notice of Justice Dowling at the Tombs Po Age Court yeaterday, Robert B. Minturn, of 78 South street, a membe of the Board of Supervisors for Richmond county, stated that some time ago they issued a considerar ble number of bonds in New York and elsewhere, in order to meet cértain expenses in the county, A few days since his atcention was called to a blank form of bond, with coupons attached, » RESEMBLING IN EVERY RESPECT THE BONDS they had issued, and purporting to be, in fact, the original bouds, only that the forms were drawn up in blank and could be filled up for any amount, But these fictitious forms were so well gotten up that they would deceive a person who had taken any of the original stock bonds. The prime mover in this business 18 Thomas Booth, a frequenter of Wall street. On the 28th of February Jast he went to W.. H. Murphy, 65 Fulton street, and stated that he had @ “particular Pd job’ to be done and asked if lurphy could do it, He received the assurancé hat the latter could do it well, and on the following day another man visited ‘Murphy, bringing witn him: @ sample blank form of THE ORIGINAL RICHMOND COUNTY BONDS, and gave an order for 200 of the bonds, at the same: time leaving ninety dollars with Murphy, as a de- josit on the cost and ag an assurance of good faith the transaction.
