Letters Just received herefrom Mr. Seward, who is yet at Havana, state that the ex Secretary propi eea, as sewn as thesituatlou in Haytl will permit, to visit that eountry.-withaview after a short sojourn there to proceed to St. Domingo, where he intends to remain until April, and thus avoid tbe severe March weather at his home in New York State. It is believed that Mr. Seward's presence in the Dominican Republic will assisl materially iu set tling the somewhat unsatisfactory con dition of allaire that appears to pre vail in tne KepuDiic, ami which ap ,ears the result of the attempt to tarry juto effect his poMcv eoncerninir the rxssaion of that country to the United ntonu hu henith i.'mni.h roveti. . . . ........ ... uiM. .. null 1. .1 ! ., f itii.u.-aA. , int.- i.-i-s.aii .TAllllsLi errand Boris Donzas. Secretary of the Rus sian Legation, are in this city, and it ls said the Russian Government has made a demand, through Catacazy, for the Interest on the Alaska purchase money, trotu tue 'jt oi to upmw- tion of payment by treaty to the ac tual date of payment. General egrete is in Herras pre paring to sweep down on the national capital, and has registered an oath to shoot Juarez, Romero and Mjia on sight. Two battaes have been fought in the neighborhood of San Luis. The result of the first was doubtful; in the second, the Government troofrs were badly beate:n. General E-wobedo now commands the national army, and General Agrine Is generalissimo of the revolutionists. The Mexican Congress, before adjourning, iuvestd Juarez with ample powers, thus mak ing him eventually hader. A Vera Cruz correspond-mco gives a suinm try of events in Mexico till the iH-ginning of February. The insur rection against Juarez is making rapid progress. The strength of the revolu tion is in the very heart of the Repub lic. The Liberals, Conserva i en and Imperialists are united, and make a con. mon cause against Juarez. The insurgents have complett possession ot the State of Nan Luis Potosi. The; unpopularity of Juarez has been aug Mated by his extravagant ouilay in entertaining Mr. Seward, and by the j suspicion that there were some real estate transactions Involved in their meeting. It is believed in Vera Cruz that Juarez will not be able to retain power longer than four months. TELEGRAPH if; MARKETS. NEW YORK. Nw Yoke. Fehrnnry. 14.
