hoped and believed they would be, there
was much to be done; many changes to be
made before next Tuesday, the day of elec
tion. v

not wish to delay unnecessarily. :
Mr. Alexander said they represented the
Union men of Baltimore, and the Uaion

Washington, Oct. 31.—Despatches have
been received by the Navv Department from
Bear Admiral Palmer, 'commanding the
North Atlantic Squadron, dated at flprto
Kico, Oct 22d, unnoupcinghis arrival and
departure on that day for Havana,
The Mackinaw and Florida were at Porto
Rico, all well. On inquiry at the Navy De-
E ailment, it is ascertained that no Monitors
ave been sold to any foreign governments,
nor have any foreign governments officially
intimated a desire to make such investment.
It is true, however, that private paties, all
of them American citizens, have-made a
proposition, without stating for whom they
wished to purchase, bat the Government
bss decided not to sell any of that class of
ships, whether they were built in the Govern
ment Navy Yards or outside by private
parties. -
