The k , llowing interesting letter from a person of high situation in the New Kingdom of Hayti, will give our readers the satisfaction of wing that that Veo;.le, r; deemed by the Revolution from the hor rible slavery to which they were subjected, prove themselves to 1)e veta.ited by the most political inaNinis, to give strength and stability to tl.e Go % eminent, and !tunniess to the people. The King his taken the priaicnt coma of securing the at tachnient of his troops, by conceding to them grants of land, and ::,is miring to them the means of cultivating them; while they are still within the reach of a summons to military duty. Con scious of his strength, King Henry rejects all over tures (tom France.that shall not conic to him with the recognition of his independence, as from one brother King to another. _ Pape Henry, this ?..1 Sept. I‘l9—Year 16. Sir—Since my last letter, the Government has seen it in it power, to put in exmution several parts of its zreat plan, such as the concession of land to the officers, under o!ti::•rs, a:td soldiers of the guard and army—a plan which has already shewn all the advantage which ought reasonably to be expected. The lands granted to the gstArd, which amounts to right thousand men, are given in the environs of citadel Henry, in such manner, at the stroke of a drain to rally that force to the point required: and to farilitatc the culture to which these brave fellows are going to turn themselves, ltovernment has resolved to make the arqui,ition of a considerable quantity of furrowing to,)1- , , and her cultivating uten sils, whi,ll have alrea.!y ;wen ordered from our friends in London. His Mejesty does more—he assists them in their establishments: he gives rewards to those who marry, either in cettle Jr any other encourage ment; or money, so that they may enrich themselves, and enable them to buy other portioros of land when they have large families. Orders h e re likewise hero given by the Uovernmew, to mace contracts for twenty-live thousand barrels of dour, a thonsan I barrels of beef, and as many of pork ; and contracts have been male for rovisions with severe] American merrhants; the • upplies will arrive in twenty ileys, and the rest at it y;,,, of fifteen days. I estimate tha: the iiovern mkot will expend from three to brie hundred thousand (Jolters to assist these new inhahitauts in their establish ments. It will be seen whet it is to have ample means in hand, and to know how to :o Ike use of it fur the ge neral good and common happiness ; and it may be judged what a like Borer eat can do, when it deter mines itself upon a thing Atb desire to accomplish It. We hare received many overtures from Jamaica and' front Martiniqrse, to treat with France.' In truth I do not kuow whet to think of thefts proposals; what et e• they he caned but iesignificant ? for it is not with Mar tinique nor Jamaica that 411,einess can be done; it is directly with the French tiovernment, and to do that, it must declare itself openly, ail without shuffling upon the independence of Hayti and t!.e Government ; it is iu vain to euloiz • the thing, to nuke ns declare before laying down the basis of the imp) dation ; we will never du it; and the more it shall persist, the more it will pot us upon our guard, and perhaps it will oblige ns to souse steps elsewhere, which will break for ever the hope of arriving at a .ree-onable arrangement. If that Govern ment knew better our situation, or mth! bring them selves to what instrurtell persons advance, it would see that it loses a favourabl.• opportunity to run after a chimera. You hive often con; ersell with me upon many important points which occupy the Government, now you have it in your power to see them develope themselves daily ; do not believe all the follies which they circulate at Paris, upon this part here, with the other part of the south west ; believe that neither the one nor the other can attempt any thing to hurt us ; do not believe a single word of what they tell, that Boyer has intention to march spinet ns, or us against 1 • ; Boyer's plan is to keep himself quiet. The war he has 111ustained with Gowan, who has but a handful of men, badly armed, and without ammunition, fir n ine months past, gives you the measure of what he can du and un- 1 dertako in that respect. 41 honked intriguers, issued' bleak limn all coantries, are assembled at fort-au-Prince.' and lie all they can to prevent the communication of that people with this. They have more to fear for their lives, and the little busty which they 1/111:1AS wi:11 ditTrulty, than to attempt hJetil.• proceedings ageiast ns: To preserve their influence, they are obliged to abandon the people to licentiousness and barbarism, without hieing able to repress it. They cannot impose their falsehoods on the public het et te o thousand leagues from them, by thr:r miserable Gazettes, w hich the Haytians do not reed, and which are printed but to send to Europe.

Sir, even in cirmnstances so discouraging - , it wind I ill become the descendants of men idol purchased with their blood the rita.hts and liberties by m biro Eng.." land became a Nall of freedom, to forget that onrs is a Government, not of privilege, Lut of law! And, bearing in mind the great Finelples of the Constitotion, we ask. if "se one osegla it fro!!te im his torn eo , -.e," with what proprlAy the !louse of Commons. professing to b.. the guardiaNs of our right-, when they accuse au Eng lishman of " scandalous libel," can presume al.o to de termine that be is gniity c We ask, it ",.o um, sioithr imprisoned ;tot bji fonynljnagose.st of his peers, or by thr lair of fLe loud," how he can lawfitily i.e ettitsigned to gaol by the vote, the divided vote too, of twit assem iiiy ?

If there be dignity in conifiniming a man to liziprisonment without bearing hios, without observing any of the essential forms, and in otter vio lation of the sacred spirit of I.iw, a despotism may be Om most dignified of Governments! But, in our con ception, dignity is best maintained by a regular and up right diseliarge of appointed duties; and we are con vinjavd, ti o at when the Members of the ;louse of Com mons shad shoe" themseltres the servants. nut the mas ters of the people ; when They shall listen to our just complaints, redress onr manifold grievances, and pro tect us from the oppression of corrupt and audacious Ministers, they will find abet no libel, however scanda lous, east shade O.:- lustre of that true dignity, which would repose, in undisturbed serenity, on national re .pert and gratitude! ri 'merely regret the personal inconvenience.

[FrOM Tile OURLIN EVENING rosy.] It has biog. been the custom, and we hope it will con tinue to be tue castum of the Irish periodical press, not to publish ou Christmas-day. We sl.all, willingly, leave a violation of this, the almost only remaining holiday. to the .tb:nking and religious folk who conduct tlik newspapers of England. From peculiar circumstances. The L'aritiag Nat and l'he Patriot (with the exeeption of the Weekly Papers) were the only Journals which. for the purpose of not violating a custom held -.acred so long amongst u% printed on the preceding Friday. doing so, we believe we did not displease the public, nor any anthoritv, civil or religions. Nay, we believe we not violate the provisions of any Act of Parliament. A Joitrnal, however, printed in this city, which would be a disgrace to the press of Jagganaut, if they bad a press there, and which, as far as its influence got:s, is a dis grace to the Irish Government, withobt whose aid it could not for one week—has invoked tile assis once of informer, for the purpose of visiting us with penal tie% tar the alleged violation of the provisions of a Slam) Art. -As this rug is likely to get into the hands of few, even of that respectable order of the a otuniunity, we shall cony a part of the paragraph. reconiniending it r their ptofouiti eons:iteration. &Arr a tine portion preliwiti.l: . y !rash, The Hibernian Journal thus winds tti • i•s aetion-lian:ing paragraph e shall conclude by stating what is well known, that skinlil ally printer publish his newspaper on a day for wli;ell lie is not registered to do so, any inforwat giving information of such a fact, is by law entitled t half the amount of the penalty, which is considerable, and wisich penalty the Commissioners cannot refuse inflict or abate.'
