His private con is regular manners. had brought on him the all men ; he was the hope of the good an of families. The Enterer Dessalines d find no remedy to these evi He was completely ignorant of them; he was bli his own prosperity, and by the adulatior of the around him, who concealed from bun the affihitfuns and miseries of his people; these vile flatterers engaged him in a routine of frivolity, ir. balls, parties of pleasnae, aid intrigues with females! Soon, therefore, did these conspirators prevail on Des salines to neglect his duty, and commit actions which forfeited his people's love, and enabled the traitors to in eeeeee tate him with the nicre facility. Pell:tit and his accomplices did not however deceive themselves that they had great obstacles to surineara ere t:,ey could carry their point. The Emperor destroyed, the helm of state would return by right to the General-in-Chief. But the accomplishment of this, their first step, would be effecting but little; they had every thing to fear front the people and the troops they resolved therefore on utabing use of the nano , of the General-in-Chit f to accomplish, with as little dan ger as possible, the resolution which they meditated. They fabricated a letter in the name of the General-lc- Chief, in which they called upon the people and the troops to ra volt against the Emperor. In acting thus the conspirators accomplished two ends. In case the Emperor should escape their reteltitroione, they would compromise hint with the General-in-Chief. Thus, in either nay, they could not fail tat hurl the Emperor from his throne. or the General-in-Chief front his cowman I. The conspiracy broke out on the 10th of October, ltto6, in the plain of ('ayes ; the partisans of the Em peror were sacrificed to the vengeance of the Ma r l{ R ums. The Minister of War, Geri!), who preteret:ol to be sick at L'Anse-a-Wean, put himself at the head of the insurrection of the South, and marched with his troops to Port-au-Prince. Petiou, to hold the Emper,: in treacherous security, announced to hint that an in surrection had manifested itself in the south, anal that he would set out to stop its progress. The Emperur, who placed the greatest confitl.asce In Petion, ordered him to take such measures as might appease these troubles. Petion accordinxly went to Port-au-Prince with troop, to form a junction with those of the sontit. He took with him General Germain, whose fidelity he doubted, and gave orders, both by sea and land, that no one should leave the city, that the Emperor might be hindered from knowing what was passing there. 'Petion left his troops at Grand-Gnome, and then re paired to Gerin at Petit-G , tetre, where they shut them selves up mediate. The two Nu m,' tilkarPil Wing a junction at Grand-Goave ; there 'hey arrested Gene ral Germain, marched to Port-an-Prince, and entered into that city on the Igth of October, with the Ge nerals Vayow,.llagloirr, Un wrier, and other chief in struments of the conspiracy. During this period the Emperor was at Dessalines (so named after himself). After having given some or ders previous to his departure, his intimated to the General-in-Chief the insurrection which had broken out in the south, and that he should hold himself in readi• nvss to march at the first notice he should receive. He gave the command of tsessalines and of the eastern pro • vivre to the Minister of Finance, Andrew Verart, with orders to march successively the troops of the east to juin him, in case he should need their assist ance, and be departed for Arrahetyr almost alone, fol lowed by some :tides-de-tamp, and a small escort of cavalry. 'I he General-in-Chief, at the reception of the Em peror's letter, was penetrated with the most lively in quietude. lie dispatched one of his Aides-de-Camp after the Emperor to demand of him orders to m a rel a , and recommended to him not to advents re bins. without t oups, and without being well informed of the situation of things; but, unfortunately, the Aid de-Camp did not overtake the Emperer. Arr:ranl at &mice Pl•antr, about six leagues from Port-au-Prince, he trained that the Emperorr was no more. An in conceivable fatality had led to his death. In his route to Arrant:ye, he wet one of Lis Aides-de-Camp, whom he had previously sent oil a mission into the south This officer, who had only been able to advance as far as Mirage:tine, gave an exact account to the Emperor, and advised hint not to enter Port-an-Prince without troops: but the Emperor, who had a blind confidence in Petiou, and who:. intrepid eonl was above fear, de spised the salutary advice which had been given him, and dismissed from his presence the faithful Aid-de- Camp. At Areal:nye he took for hs guard six com panies of the elite of the 3d reximent, and ordered them to march under the command of Colonel Thomas, and of Lient.-Colouel Liedeon, with injunctions to go and wait fir him at the gates of Port-au-Prince, at a place called the Pont Ronge. He himself stopped as the ancient habitation of halal-re, where he retired to rest. It was at this place that, upon oheerving the smoke in the distant mountains of the south, he said to those who were about him—" From the time of day it now is, I suppose the General Petion is amusing himself with the sports of the chase." So great was his blindness with regard to this traitor. The guard in question effected its march to Pont Rouge, where it waited the arrival of the Emperor. The greater part of the officers had seattered then-- selves among the neighbouring habitations, or had entered into the city, believing it in peace, for none of them entertained any doubt and inquietude on this head. Petion being informed of the arrival of these troops, resolved to win them over, and thereby effevt the completion of his stratagem on the Emperor. F.,y this purpose he sent General l'ayou, one of the blind est instruments in this conspiracy, who emission:Ed by caressing the officers to corrupt them, anti to lea - suede them to enter Port-au-Prince, that he might Joi e etliately replace the Emperor's guard, by one of tsar IStb carps of the troops of the south.

The want of reflection. or, more properly, the spirit of custom, had given to the General-k•C'hief of the native armies the title of Goreraor-Geteetal ; the spirit of imitation suggested that of Etrip roe. Bonaparte, the Fir,: Consul in Prance, had caused himself to be hanohrrd with this title; and the (lovernor-Veneral of'Hs,tl was equally worthy of the same denontina quo. Thu" we passed front one exerts to another; for if the title of tiovern•w-lieneral suited not an inde pendent nation, because it implied a secondary power to one MOTE elevated, the fi-titious title of Emperor was no better, because it supposed that he possessed territorial property, a population, &c. &c.—ln the wording of the act of nomination of the Emper o r, it was said, eat the apprente authority could not Ge di tided f the Enspei or was named . p,r life, with the right ,y* chitisiake• his str , ressor, kr. The constitution was confurpsable to the tenor of this art ; the three Powers of Sole—Legialatire, Exertatire, and Judicial', were waited in the sane hands: it had well been named a Coaaeil of State. The Emperor had two Ministers, one of the Finances and the Interior, the other of War and Marisa, and Secretary of State. Such a constitution Was a political monster. The empire was an elective 'republic, Atli the constitution was consecrated to principles diametrically opposite to a republic, and which could never square with it, though they were vastly in unison with a government purely despotic ; and on the other hand, by a strange confusion of ideas, the constitution consecrated principles the most demo cratic. But the Emperor Desaahttes, with the best intentions, wanted talents to govern ; and among our first misfortunes was that of his !mint surrounded by tiututoral and corrupt men, sold to Frame, and who aught his destruction with as much seal as the ex : colonists had achieved that of the brave Toussaint.

There arrived Bllochei, Dartigemtare, FatArrt, and Darid TrGit, all partisans of the French and of Petion, and cruel enemies of their country. The Emperor treated these ungrpteful men with kind ness ; he heaped favours on them ; but they had scarcely set foot on their native soil than they joined Petion, and laboured with sll their address to overturn the empire and kindle the Ilatne of civil war. *1 he object of this faction was to place Petion at the head of the (lovernment ; hut to effect this it was ne cessary to destroy the two Chiefs, Dessalines and Christophe, who had a right to govern, as well by ' sir long service, as by the ioice of the people.— rthese factious men left no stone unturned that their tlit projects might succeed. Their agents were posted in ,every• place wherein they could forward the work of "'hellion. Those of them who surrounded the Em peror's person, spurred him on to persecute men who •ere attached to him, and who would take no part in the conspiracy that had been formed. By this means the conspirators had the double advantage of removing &um the counsels of the Emperor his real friends, and of preventing the truth from reaching him. Their ac complices, scattered over the provinces, laboured se cretly to poison the public mind. Petion was the soul of this plot ; it was he who ac tuated all ; and he pretended to have the greatest re spect for the Emperor DessAlines, who, on his part, treated him with blind confidence! Potion possessed the tactics of a great conspirator ; he strove from day to day to render himself popular; he flattered the arl og :; he caressed the troops ; he authorised licen .sl and demoralization ; he affected the mask 'of Ihikoophy ; he abandoned all titles; he had the . 4 of nothing ambitious 1 honours, rank, riches, he p tended to despise. Under the dress of a Diogenes, he concealed the most immoderate desires; in a word, this hypocrite went on securely with the execution of the plot he had sketched out for his own exaltation. A general confusion had taken place in the empire ; the finances were disorganized, the troops without pay and without clothes, the verification of the titles of property pushed to an extremity, without a just exa nsinatios; the corruption of those who filled the most eminent situations ; a general discontent which showed I itself silently among the people and the troops, threa.- 'nest the State with a speedy downfal. All these ca lamities were yet more augmented by the accomplices of Petion, those partisans of the French who had ar- I rived from all parts, and had spread themselves in the east end the south, as a prelude to the grand drama which was about to take place. It is worthy of remark, that whenever the French have wished to undertake any enterprise against this island, they have invariably preceded their grand pro ject by spies and secret agents; the priests have in particular been employed to favour these projeets, as also the natives who derived the origin from the ex colonists, and these last by their principle* and cha reeMr worked all the mischief which St. Domingo has suffered these thirty years back.
