HAYTI.

We have received a mass of newspapers, procla.
mations, laws, handbill., &c. of various kinds up to
the Bth of January last, from Hayti. Onthe Ist of
that month the anniversary of the intleyentience of
the republic was celebrated. ;Ile official Report of
the festivities of the day at Porf-nu-Prince, together
with the patriotic speeches of the Presidcnts• of the,
Senate at.d Republic, remind the reader strongly of
the days of the French' Republic. Some Extracts
from the oration of the President of the Senate will
serve to give an idt:a of the 'spirit, real or afte6ltxl, of
the Government :
" CITIZENS !

" The anniversary of our independence, which We
celebrate to-day, yecalls mom bosoms the efforts we.
have made U conquer liberty, and the enterprises of
tyranny to overthrow it.
" Scarcely were we delivered from the French
yoke, when the most frightful slavery succeeded to
liberty, and DESSALINES, raised to the Stlitlinit of
greatness, forgot that he owed his power to the peo-
ple he oppressed. The patience of the people was
put to a severe trial, but the excess of crime pro-
duced despair,
,and the 17th of 06tober 'saw tit*
throne fall with the head of the tyrant.
" This memorable epoch reinstated you in your.
rights, and you consecrated them by giving your-
selves a free Constitution, founded on the principles
oljtistice and humanity. Such a Conslitmion was
not desired by lieNitY CHHISTOOAK, the friend and
worthy emulator of DHSS [Nos, The title of 6on-
stitutional Chief oil the State did not suit him; he
resolved to stifle the Republic in it' hirth,, and he
chose the Ist of January to commence and Complete
his crime. The genius of liberty saved once more
our Country, and the phalanxes of tyranny were
vanquished and crushed.

•' In vain new conspirators wished to replifilst
you in despotism; i vakn the infamous YAYON Me-
ditated the overthrow of the Republic ; in vain the
perfiduous MAGLOLIIE wished to destroy libetty and
hiS country. It is on you, brave soldiers, that the
safety of the State reposes. It is on youl laborious
crultivatorsoirg our hopes are founded; it is from
all,good citizens that we,'exped the example of
those virtues Which chars lerise a people truly
free, &c."

In the evening a grand supper was given by the
Government, at winch the tbreign melch.w;s and
traders were present. The following tkr.ists were
