~TI",nAINT LOUVERTURE, almost without corn-
with the Government,. and not having

even the means of knowing its intentions, may) in
some instance's, have deceived himself ; but he has
always done great services. The Civil War has at
length ceased, The Colony is tranquil, and the French
People cannot forget that it is in part to him that
they owe the preservation of this beautiful and im-
portant Colony;
It is possible that many Articles of the Constitu-
tion which he has proposed may not be adopted in
France ; but the alterations which the interest of the
Mother Country may .command, will be for the:ad-
vantage of the commerce, the agriculture, and, the
prosperity of Sr. Domingo.

TOUSSAINT LOUVERTURE, COMMANDER IN CHIEF
OF THE ARMY OF ST. DOMINGO, TO BONAPARTE,
CHIEF CONSUL GE THE FRENCH REPUBLIC,
IZTH FEBRUARY.

CITIZEN CONSVL,

" After having answered the different Letters
which you desired the Minister of Marine to send
to me, and which were brought by the Advice Boat
I,lEllj:int Prodigui, and after having given full
details for the purpose of enabling him to give you
full satisladion, it now becomes my duty to write
to you myself, to acquaint you, that the Colony is
now tranquil, and to demand your approbation for
the nomination which I have made of several Ge-
neral Officers ; they are brave men, who have Le-
conded my arduous exertions with all the zeal of
Officers attached to their-duty. Therare all Offi.
cers of merit, fiithful to their Country, and wor-
thy of your confidence and of national reward.
The first is General MERSE, who has performed
the most important services, hut whose nomination
I have kept secret till this day. The second is
General DESSALINES ; I have also promised the
rank of General of Brigade, to the Chief of Bri-
gade, Motu/is,
.to whose skill and courage the
preservation of Port au Paix is to be attributed ;,
to the Chief of Brigade, HENRY CHRISTOPHE,
who distinguished himself upon the same 'service ;
to the Chief of Brigade, PAUL LOUVERTURE, who
commanded the right column of the Army ; to the
Chief, of Brigade, CHARLES BELAIX, who, though
young, has always displayed the greatest abilities,
and, finally, to Adjutant-General HABECOUR.T.
" The French Government, Citizen Consul,
owes this recompence to these brave Soldiers, who,
since the commencement of the 'Revolution, have
constantly seconded my .operations, and. have al-
ways conduded themselves with the most distin-•
guished talents. But situated as I am, at such a
distance from France, I thought I ought to give
them this encouragement, now when there is no
longer any enemy to contend against, to augment
their zeal in assisting me .to effect the restoration of
this beautiful Colony, and in bringing back once
more its ancient splendour. Trusting in the equity
of your sentiments, I have given them reason to
expert your sanlion, as I myself hope yOu will
approve of this measure. It is also my duty, Citi-
zen Consul, to acquaint you that the Soldiers of
the Army of St. Domingo arc entitled to the grati-
tude.of the French Government. You may repose
an entire confidence in them. If properly direded,
they are capable of the greatest anions. In this •
last campaign, which, though it has not been at-
tended with slaughter, yet has not been less labori-
ous they have convinced me that in a march they
are unequalled. I have often been obliged to halt
them on a march; to give the Cavalry time to:over-
take them. I trust that, when they are better dis-
ciplined, tlpey will not be inferior to any Troops of
Europe.
." Health and profound respe6t,
" TOUSSAINT LOUVERTURE."

REPUBLIC, DATED FEB. 12.

" CITIZEN CONSUL)

cc When the intention of ceding the Spanish part
of St. Domingo to the Republic .was known, every
effort that malevolence could suggest was employed
to throw obstacles in the way of it. That which
succeeded the best was the making Citizen ROUNIE,
Agent, return by its decree of the 23d January,
and thereby enabling him to take measures to pre-
vent possession being taken of the Spanish part of
the Island, notwithstanding the decree of Govern-
ment. Being determined to obtain possession by
force of arms, I thought it right in the first in-
stance to request Citizen ROUNIE to discontinue
the exercise of his functions, and to retire to Don-
den, until he should receive further orders ; because .
there, intrigue and malignity could not so easily
operate upon him. He is there waiting your or-
ders : ,when you desire it, I will send him to you.
Whatever calumnies my enemies may have written
to you against me, I shall abstain from, justifying
myself; but while my delicacy prescribes silence
to me, my duty enjoins me to prevent him from
acting improperly,
The necessity of carrying on a strift corre-
spondence with my Government, and the few op-
portunities that presrnt themselves for that pur-
pose., induce me to request, Citizen Consul, that
you, will appropriate L'Enfernt Prodzgue Corvette
to that object only, and that you will dispatch it
to St. Domingo once at least every three months, in
order that 1 may be enabled to transmit to you re-
gularly, at the periods of its return, the precise
state of this fine Colony, for the prosperity of which
you may be assured I shall continue on all occasions
to exert myself.
" Health and profound respel,
" TOUSSAINT LOUVERTURE."

" CITIZEN CONSUL,

" The Minister of the Marine, in the account that
he has of course given you, of the political situa-
tion of this Colony, and which I transmitted to him
by the dispatches sent. by the Corvette
have
-Prodigue,, on her return to France, must have sub-
mitted to you my Prochima tion of the stli February.
It announces a convocation of a Central Assembly,
which (at the instant in which an union of the

French inci Spanisil parts r_47 Pln:l7,gv made them
but one country.; stlbjed tO the sane legishiive
S.ystem), was to establish their ibture condition by
wnolesonie laws, founded on the thanners and posi-
tion of the inhabitants..

" I have this day the satislaftion to inform you,
that the finishing hand has been put to this work,
and that a Constitution has bee:, formed, which
promises happiness fo the longsuffering inhabitants
of this Colony, and which I transmit to you for your
appiobation, and
_that of my Government. For
this purpose I have dispatched to you Citizen VIN-
CENT, ChielDiredor of the Fortifications at St.
Domingo, to whom I entrusted this precious charge.
The Central Assembly having required of me (on
account of the non-existence of all law, and the
necessity that there is for the suppression of anarchy)
to put this Constitution in finer., as a means of
sooner producing its future prosperity, I .have
acquiesced in their demand. It has been received
by all classes of persons with transports of joy,
which no doubt will be reiterated as soon as it
shall be returned to them with the sanction of Go
vernment. _Health and resped,

TOUSSAINT LOUVERTURgo"

Bttßsr, OCT. 9.—The Galliot the Hind was
dispatched ou the 4th inst to announce to Admiral
CoRNWAt,Lis the telegraphic account of Peace being
signed at London. It is said the Sailors broke out
into the most extravagant demonstrations of joy.—
The Officers received ours with the greatest cordi- ,
ality, and trelted them with punch, as a proof of
reconciliation.

VIENNA. SEPT. 30.—The English Minister,
Lord MINTo, and the Spanish Minister, the Mar_

ence of introduaion. The Marquis del CAmPo
sets off for Kser, where he will remain until cer-
tain differences between the two Courts, relative to
the recognition of the King of EraxitzA, shall
be terminated. The- French Ambassador, CRAM-
PAGNY, Occupies, in the mean time, the Hotel of
the Spanish Legation. He has not yet been pre-
sented to his rvlajesty.

The removal -of 'Count COLLOREDO from the

tion as Cabinet Minister.

Consul ; who, upon that occasion, presented three
snuff boxes, mounted with diamonds, to the Pleni-
potentiaries of the Holy Pontiff, namely, Cardinal
GoNSALVI, Monsignor SPINA, and Father CA-
SELL!. It is generally supposed that at the next
Consistory the Pope will. cominunicatethese Ratifi-
cations to- the Sacred College, and. that the Articles
of the Convention will be afterwards made public.
It is not true that the Pope, before giving his Rati-
fication, proposed. any modification or alteration
whatever.

On Saturday the loth instant Trevenson House,
near Redruth, the seat of THOMAS KEVILL E, Esq.
was struck and considerably, damaged by lightning.
The flash entered at the front windows, proceed-
ed through the bed-rooms, from thence to the
garrets and through the, roof of the house, where
it made a considerable fracture. The family be-
ing at breakfast at the time, were dashed from
their seats by the shock, and every thing on the
-table broken to pieces about them, but fortunately
they received no material injury. A servant maid
who was in one of the bed rooms,. was immediately
after the accident fotind "senseless at the bottom
of the stairs ; she soon recovered, but could give
no account of what had happened. upon ex-
amination above stairs one of the rooms was
found to be an fire (winch was soon extinguished),
the walls, Btc. scorched in several places, and a
bed-tye Singed and thrown from the bed into a cor-
ner of the chamber. Excepting two windows there
was not a pane `of glass left standing. in the front
of the houe, and the whole-damage is estimated at
2001. The accident is attributed to the window-
frames, which are upon a 'new construEtion, and
bung together with an unusual quantity of iron,
which is supposed to have attraacd the lightning,
