According to accountsFOß
from HaytiGN
of the Bth ult., the in-
stallation of the new President took place on the 4tb. The
French ll,nvoy Extraordinary, M. A. Barrot, Admiral de
Moges, and his officers, and the representatives of the different
States resident at Hayti, were present on the occasion. On
the 6th a new Ministry was formed. Commisssioners had
been appointed to treat with M. Barret relative to the French
claims. It was understood that the first instalment would
be paid immediately, and that one of the Commis/4one r
would be sent to France to arrange for. the other instalments.
With the exception of the ex-President Boyer mid General
Inginac, all Havtiaas who have been placed under accusation
are declared free, and those who had fled are to be permitted
to return.

On Tuesday (Mardi Gras) the Paris Bourse was al-
most totally deserted, and nothing worth mentioning lone in
the Funds, either domestic or exotic. All Paris was on
the Boulevards.

The Duke de Levis arrived at Paris on Sunday evening,
from Goritz. Of the five Legitimist Deputies who have ap-
pealed to their constituents, M. de Larcy is the only one whose
re-election seems to be doubted. _

For the last two mouths (says the Norman Times) about
200 poor English workmen, out of employment, have gene-
rously been provided at Rouen with soup, potatoes, &c„ by
MM. Mackenzie and Brassey, to preserve them from want
until a more genial season sets in, and with it a better pros-
pect of labour. Within a few days back M. Brassey has in-
terested himself to procure work for a portion of them, and he
has partially succeeded.
The Prussian Government has given its approbation to
the :project for a railroad from Frankfort-on-the-Oder to
Posen, and a great part of the capital for the undertaking has
been already subscribed.
We learn from Berlin that there is to be in that city
during the present year a public exhibition of the products
of national industry, similar to that in. Paris. It is to'remaiu
open for two months. All the States of the German Cus-
toms' Union are to send specimens.
A letter from Constantinople, in the Universal German
Gazette, says :—" It is probable that the Porte will prefer
paying Admiral Walker a round sum at once, than to allow
him half-pay. It is negotiating on the point with the Eng-
lish Ambassador."

LAW AND POLICE.
In the Vice-Chancellor's Court the case of a Welleeley v.
Wellesley" was heard. It appeared that the Bill originally
filed by the plaintiff, Mrs. Wellesley (now Lady Wellesley),
against the defendant, William Pole Tilney Long Wellesley
(now Viscount Wellesley), her husband, for the purpose of
compelling a specific performance by him of, a covenant con-
tained in articles of separation executed between them in
1834, whereby the defendant covenanted that on or before •
the Ist day of February, 1835,he would well and effectively,
by a charge on freehold estates, or by investment in the funds,
or by the best means that might be in his power, secure an an-
nuity of 1,0001. per annum, to be paid quarterly to Colonel
Paterson (Mrs. Welleeley's father), for the plaintiff's benefit.
The counsel for the prosecution took an objection to the cause
being now heard, upon the ground of the absence from the
record of the Hon. William Wellesley, the defendant's eldest
son, who, as being the tenant in tail in remainder of the
estates, was a necessary party to the suit, and ought to le
made such. The Vice-Chancellor was of opinion that the
objection was a valid one, and should prevail, but with liberty
to the plaintiff to amend the bill, by adding the necessary
party ; the cause to stand over in the meantime,
At Lambeth-street Thomas Brand and James Eccles, the
young men who had been examined at Worship-street on
the preceding day, on a charge of having caused the death of
Ellen Goodlad, an unfortunate female of eighteen years of
age, by inducing her to drink a pint of gin, surrendered to
their bail before Mr. Henry. It appeared that the Coroner's
jury had returned a verdict, " Died a natural death, caused
by taking a large quantity of spirits called gin, and accele-
rated by a fall." Harriet Sirmnonds, the other female, who
had had a drinking bout with deceased, and had a narrow
escape with her life, deposed that the gin was ordered by
deceased herself, and that she challenged witness to drink,
each swallowing a pint of gin. Under these circumstance*
the accused were discharc'ed.
At Maryleboue Alfred Davies, a boy about fifteen years of
age, was charged before Mr. Rawlinson with stealing money
from the till of Mr. Whalley, baker, Cumberland-street. ffs
was committed to Newgate for trial.
_ _

Daniel Carroll, a lad of eighteen years of age, was brought
before Mr. Cottingham, at Union-hall, charged with wound-
ing James Ferrer, a youth of the same age, during a quarrel
in a public-house. 'The case was proved, and Mr. Cotting-
ham sentenced the prisoner to pay a fine of 51., and, in de-
fault, committed him for two months to the House of Cor-
rection.

George Biggs, a middle-aged man, of respectable exterior,
was charged at Worship-street with having obtained by false
pretences the stun of 31. from William Burroughs, a rocking*
horse-manufacturer, living in Bowling-green-street, Clerken-
well. The prisoner represented himself as an attorney, and
took the money under pretence of defending the complainant's
brother, a youth, who had been committed for trial at the
sessions for some small offence, but of course made no attempt
to carry out his promise. He was committed for trial.
At the Lancaster assizes, Edward Greenhalgh, a lad of the
age of fifteen years, was indicted for attempting to administer
to one Margaret Bury a certain poison, with intent to murder
the said Margaret Bury. It appeared that there was no ade-
quate motive assigned for the heavy charge, and that all the
circumstances of the case might be accounted for on the
ground of mistake. The jury, after a short consultation, re-
turned a verdict of Not Guilty.
John Jolly was indicted for burglariously breaking and
entering the dwelling-house of Thomas Norris, at Wrighting-
ton, in this county, and stealing sundry articles therefrom.
The jury found him Guilty, recommending him to mercy oe
the ground of his good character. Sentenced to be impri-
soned and kept to hard labour for two years. This case closed
the assizes.
On Monday James Field, the master of the smack Lori
Howe, of Queenborough, and John Gooding and Phineas
Fridaywebb, his crew, were brought before Larkin Allen.
Esq., the Mayor of Rochester, charged with being found in
possession of 1264 ankers of contraband spirits on board of
that smack. The detection took place while the boat was off
Garrison Point, Sheerness. The parties were committed pre-
paratory to the unloading of the prize. She is from 30 to 40
tons burden,
