TRADE WITH HAYTI. A letter from Port-an-PrincoOtail tria of Seß tember, agates, that the import Any noin tie Ist of January neit will be 17k per cent. instead of 16. The law of patents was expected tube promulgated in few days; sodas merchants would have to pay 300 dollars instead Of '2.000, such a reduction of charge is expected on the shipment of returns, as Will meet the additional duty of 1. per cent. The new law was looked upon kg. the repectahle establishment at Port-au-Prince as pointedly levelled at them, with the view of injuring foreign commerce. The following copy of the new re ouiatinns, respecting the qualifications of aliens to be. curve commission merchants in St. Domingo, and their liability to the payment of certain duties in that capacity, is annextd to the letter above mentioned : " DUTIES ON CONSIGNMENTS.

The FrenCh Papers, received lest night, contain a number of OrJonnances, announcing recent changes and appointments in the Administration, to which we alluJed yesterday. There is nothing new from the theatre of the war, nor is any thing new expected, at least for some time, as the Russian Generals will now ttane.mit their accounts direct to St. Petersburgh. The Monileur contains news from the French army in the Murea, dated October 20, at which time Gen. MAtauti was preparing to set out f Paves, where the Albanian gAr ism had refused to admit the French. The Moni tear also formally contradicts a rumour, which had nut only been very prevalent . among the troops in the Alorea, but was also current in Paris—namely, that General M A 180 N intended to cart y on operations beyond the Morea ; and concludes with saying. that the French army has accomplished the service it:trusted to it, and what remains to be done is to be the wen k of diplomacy, and the conjoint act of the three Allied. Powers. German Papers to the 12th inst. were received this morning; beyond some vague reports current in Vienna on the sth inst. their contents possess no interest. The following are extracts: VIENNA, Nov. 5. It is said that his Imperial Highness the Archduke Rudolph, Cardinal Archbishop of Olntuts, will spend the ensuing winter in this city. Gagers! Count Figueiment, Imperial Ambassador at Naples, will go, it is said, to St. Petersburg!), to succeed Count Ztchy,' who is in bad health. Accounts from Varna of ivth October say, teat the Emperor Nicholas, before he left that place, limited the• Prince of Hesse Beaufort to St. Petersburgh, and he will therefore follow his gluiest) , thither. It was also affirmed, that in the negoelatipos that And takes place with the Capita* Paths, his Maiesty bad aused the renewed assurance to be glAn him of his constant readiness to make peace. Another report. which has come hither from Bucharest, but which meets with very little credit, speaks of , an armistice as being negoelated between the Russian and Turkish Commanders in Bulgaria, to secure the peaceable enjoyment of winter quarters. VARNA, Oct. 11. • ram A PfaVATIL The white Dag is displayed on the telegraph. Yesterday the thunder of the artills4y still roared; to. day Turks have mingled with :heir enemies, forgot the war that had hardly ceased to sage, _and walk familiarly about our camp. The space between this and the town is filled with Turks who make their submission, and our soldiers are mixed among them. Many coloured dresses, turbans, rich costumes, shining arms, make a picturesque sight. Yesterday the Russians were preparing to force their way into the fortress with their bayonets; today Jussuff l'acha, son of the Melo ated Ismail Bey, has submitted to the Russian arms. Is has struck two o'clock ; all the bastions are occupied, and we are preparing for our solemn entry intoVarna: After we had gone ten wersta along ditches and hills,we approached the fortre-s on the side nest the Lilian. I lere we came to a deep ditch, lined with masonry. After wrhad crossed a draw-bridge, and passed through a gate, we were at length in the fortress itself. Here the Capitan Parke presented himself to us: he is a man about 50 years of age; his person is agreeable, and his manners inspire invatiuntary respect; he invited us to sit down by him on the carpet, ordered pipes and c.,ffee to be presented to us, and at last deterred to us the keys of the town. Upon this oar troops entered Varna—the 15th and 14.11 Rtiiments of Chas seurs, on foot, of the division of Uschaloff. followed by the bat talion of Sappers, and the regiment of Ismailoff of the Guard. These fine troops marched into the town, passing before Count Worunzow, in presence of the Capitan Pach.a ; while OnterVrione. from the mountain where his camp Is, at the distance of three cannon-shot, beheld the surrender of a town which he had in vain hastened to relieve. TRIESTR, Nov. 4. Letters from Corfu, of the 21st of October, say that General Mahon had caused the Greek Bsg, as well as those of the three Allied Powers, to be hoisted on the walls of the fortresses surren dered by the Tanks. Admiral Count Von ileyden was gone - to Malta, to join Admiral Iticord, and the squadron from the Baltic. It was supposed that the two Admirals would then proceed to the Archipelago, and employ part of their force io blockading the Dar danelles. The island of Samos is aid to be assigned them by the President of Greece, as a depbtlor military stores sod provisions.— Allgenseine Ziimng, Nov. 11. cl CY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

ALARM OF FIRE IN COVENT GARDEN TH EA TR E. ~~ We are sorry to state that this afternoon, about two o'clock, the interior of Covent Garden Theatre, owing to the explosion of the gas conductors, caught fire. Several workmen who were on the spot, we understand, have been severely burnt, and have b at conveyed to the Hospital. The different fire engines were prompt in their attendance, and by the exertions of the firemen prevented the flames from doing injury to the in terior of the Theatre.

Sunday, as a Fulham stage was drivisig rapidly through the Strand, the iron hoop of one of the hind wheels flew off in a lateral direction, and struck the shutter• of the window of Mr. Stammers, silversmith, with extraordinary force, and rebounded into the street. Luckily, although that part of the Strand is generally very much crowded with passengers, no person was passing the sp.•t at the time, or the iron, which flew as if it had been discharged from a mortar, must have produced fatal result..

CITADEL ow INvanwass, &c.—lt is not, we believe. l so generally known as it I ught to be, as it tends to illustrate the military character of Crvmwell, that this once important fort r. , ss, the ruins of which are still to be seen, was built by the Usurper. It was founded in 1652 and was completed in five >ears thereafter. Our readers will for m some idea of the extent and importance of the edifice when we state that the expense of its erection was 80,4 111. stem ling, an immense sum in those times. lmme• 'irately oy the restoration, Charles the Second, in order to petit y the wishes ot the Highland Chiefs, dismantled ihis citadel, in consequence of which it soon atter fell into a state of dilapidation. It is worthy of observation, as tending to show the progress of society and commerce, that at the time referred to, the now fl 'wishing town t f Inverness contained only one merchant of importance. A journey to Edinburgh, though now accomplished in a day, then required a whole week ; and suai were the dangers attending it, that no individual of property ever set out to tire Scuitith metropolis svitlio.it having made his will.
