The followityg is a copy of the Genral Orders
issued .by the President of Hayti, after_ the recent
victory 'over the troops of his riyarPetion

" I uly z, 180_9, Sixth Year.
Qt) the mth of April, the rebel ;Petion an-
nounced in a .Proclamation, that. he was. Making
`great preparations to relieve his accomplice Lainarre,
`who was closely blockaded At - the Mole. A. .levy.
en masse of all the forces . of the
.South; and part of
those in the West, in possession of khe;raels, nu-
merous requisitions of young and'old, and eveen-thoie
who filled civil employments,' were 'eStined
this enterprize. •
• " The rebels appeared withall,theirdispoSable force
towards the middle Of JUn;',before-Alirabelai-s, lik-
ing at their head their two perfidious lea'ders, Patron
and Guerin. But having made some movements as
if they intended to, attack Mirabelais, alinost -the
whole of their force defiled under the command of
the rebel David Trois. Lys, Rorirdev, and others,
were under the orders of Trois, They appeared be-
fore the quarter of Du Sour 4, 'threbtening treaut of
Grande 4iviere; and flattering themselves with no-
thing less, in, their silly expectations, than to' arrive
at.the entrance of the Cape._

The PresidentiMniediately ordered some !rook,
with two
.squadrons of his horse-guardS, to over.-
whelm the rebels. Such was their a&ivity and at:-
dour, 'that the rebelsbtkd not time ig occupy a single
position. They were briskly attack-ed, 'and thrown
into such. contusion that they had' not time to re-
. „
tnovetlieir dead-or. wounded, whorti they left on
the field. The infamotts David TroiS paid with his
life the'forfeit of his crirrie, :His 'colleague ;Boni,-
det, having lost his way in the woods, fekintd our
bands; and also a great number of 'prisoners; OUr
artily, under the command of Lieutenant-Generals '
Anmain.and Joachim, effeCted a juution with that •
of Marshal Pierre Toussaint,
,and pursued them into
the Spanish Savannas. On their arrival at Bauique,
the, rebels !mind the "river Artibonite swollen b::,7 the
rains ; and not being able to succeed, they encamped
on the banks, 'supposing they were 'out -or danger.
At this moment they were attacked by the whole
o! our troops.. The Iforse-guards then charged them,
overwhelmed and routed them a second time. The
greater part of those who attempted to crois-theri-
ver were carried away by the strength of the current.
A battalion and a half were drowned ; very few ;
reached' the opposite shore, froM Mience they eon-
prated their flight. Su soon. as • our troops were
able to pass the river, they pursued the rebels, and
arrived at Mirabelais withoUt being able to come
up with them. -
. " The,rellel Lamarre, etideaybilling to -take ad-
vantage of this attempt, made an attack on the lines
with WhiCh he-is so Closely 'TfiVested, but the
-was
driveninto his den at the point of the bayonet. :The
field was coered with (load.; his two
Camp were killed, and himself escaped in diSguise."
We have, also seen another official paper; which
states,. that the Presi.deii,l qhriSfophe bad received
from - Sanchez; the Comniander .the Spanish
troopS before the City of St. DOlrringo; authentic
proofs of The existenCe of constant connection and
understanding between the French Goveritor and Pe-
tion. They were found among the papers of Gene-
ral Barquier, and are to .be published.for the put--
pose of undeceiving the adherents.of Potion, and un-
folding the real views of this very adroit traitor.
Were it not for ,the assistance he rendered the,gar-
rison, it must. have been ill the hands of the,Spaniarth
long since. •
