LONDON, WEDNESDAY. AUGUST 17, 1823.

The Paris Papers of Sunday arrived list night. At
Hayti we are informed President BOY r R was preparing to
have the Royal Ordinance registered by the Senate with
becoming solemnity. The Haytians are represented to
have received the concession of their independence with,
transports of joy, and it was reported, that so great
was their eagerness to avail themselves of the terms
of the Ordinance, that the Bearnaise, by which the de-
spatches were brought from Port-au-Prince, was tilhe
beater also of 13 millions of francs in cash, and 19 millions
in letters of credit and bills of exchange, remitted by the
Haytian Government, as a first Instalment of the indem-
nity payable to the old French colonists. This report is
however evidently unworthy of belief. The Harlan Go-
verntuent has been too long independent, in spite of Pumice,
to rush into such blind and absurd excesses, because at hat
it happens to suit the policy of the French Cabinet to issue
an equivocal instrument agreeing in form to that which all
its power could not veleta in fact. There would necessa-
rily be some time consumed in the deliberations of the Hay-,
lien legislature. Boren is not, like Cants-roma or DESIPA.
trees, an arbitrary monarch. lie is hut the chief officer
of the executive departmmt. Until we have the details of
the proceedings of the Haytians, we can know little of the
true character of the recent trsisactions that: have taken
place in their island. Meanwhile, the Nliniaterial Journals
of Paris are publishing commentaries on the Kt NG'S Ordi•
DIME, which are calculated to locate serious difficulties,
should they reach the eyes of the Haytlans before the ne-
gotiation be concluded in all its parts. The Drapeav
Itr,,r, a paper principally belonging.to M. De VILLEI.E,
ar:l understood, therefore, peculiarly to speak his senti-
mlts, states, that " the officer who was the bearer of the
Ordinance gave the people of St. Dmainp 'the alternative
to accept it within fifteel days cr to ceillwasce

their Rentes, in case their inscriptions were not already
converted; that the Minister was obliged to comply with
,their demands, and that these inscriptions, to the amount
of ten millions, were accordingly delivered back to them."
The Journal de Paris of Sunday denies this story in these
words:—
" This is entirely false. The state of the transfers, which will be
immediately published, will show the truth. People will then be
akole.wjudge of the good faith of the Quotidicnne."
Ws have as yet no official confirmation of the capture of
lIIRAHIM PACH ; neither is there any intelligence in the
rl slightest degree inconsistent with the fact. It is stated that
usettr4 Bay, with S or 4,000 men, has landed at Neut-
rino. We trust that this statement is without foundation.
roinforeement to such an amount would at this critical
moment be highly dangerous to the cause of Greece.
The Mouiteur of Sunday, Aug. 14, contains, in the official part,
a very long Ordinance relative to the schools of Hydrography, and

the eeteeption of Captains of merchantmen. Three other Ordt.
nanceslx the number of these schools, the pay, and the uniform of
the professors and examiners. To each Ordinance is subjoined an
injunction, by the Dauphin as Admiral of France, loth, Command.
ants, Civil and Military Officers of the Marine, and all 'bons it con.

The despatches beciaght by La Bear:tale confirm the news an-
nounced by the telegraph.
The intentions of the King have been completely fulfilled—lSO
millions are secured to the ancient colonists of St. Domingo, and
our commerce will enjoy in that island advantages double those
granted to the most favoured nations. In a word, the ordinance of
the King has been accepted with respect and gratitude.
Preakleot Boyer was making the necessary preparations that the
ordinance might be registered in the senate with suitable so-
lemnity.
In the evening cf the 13th July, the day on which M. Denville,
Captain of La Bearnaise, quitted Port-au-Prince, he discovered the
French squadron, composed of two ships of the line, seven frigates,
and three corvettes. M. de 3lakar had been detached from this
squadron, in the Circe frigate, to carry the Ordinance to Port-au.
Pr nee. lie is daily.expected at Brest.
Telegraphic despatches from Toulon announce that the Oalathee
sailed front that port the 9th of this month, having en board Sidi
blahmood, to carry him back to Tunis.

PARIS, AUGUST 13.
It seems that the heat has been excessive at Guadeloupe, and
favoured the developement of the yellow fever. A letter from
Point-a-Petre, of 25th June, says that disorder rages with great
violence, and almost ell the Europeans sunk under it. The mor-
tality is said to be greater than in 1816.
