rilley regarded
.with repugnance and disdain that
system of equality which placed them,
in't!ie eye of the, law, on a level with those
they had, been accustomed to look upon
as their inferiors. In vain did the liberal and
oRu:table Governthent of the Republic over-
beltn them- with benefits ; in vain did it
a€l4,ire to them ' the enjoyment of every ad-
varrtitge not inconsistent with the Constitution .of
the itate ; personal interest and vanity prevailed
in -their hearts over every sentiment of duty and
gratitltde. From the very first moments which
succeeded the union of the North to the Republic,
the* incessantly plotted to overthrow the new

ordir of things. Their criminal machinations
succeeded in tnisleading a few feeble minds ; and
when they thought themselves in a situation to
act, they attempted the execution of their ex-
eCrable project. Their plan was extensive ; the
movement agreed upon by the conspirators was
td set fire to the tap-Haitien, the Gonaives,Saint
Mai c, and -the quarter of the Artabonite. To
create an apparent motive for the insurrection
wi.ich they wished to excite, the conspirators
adro;dy circulated reports tending to alarm the
ertiiens respecting the intentions of the Govern-
ment: and to diminish the confidence it was cal-

colated to inspire. But the fate of Tlayti was
irrevocably fixed . . . A protetting genius
watered over her, and' warned' the Government
of the dark deeds of, those whO meditated her
rdin . Their. plots have vanished before
the prudent measures which were adopted
td frustrate them. At St. Marc the courage and
presence of mind of General Marc, and Ad-
jutant-General Constant Paul, have stifled the
retbeliion in its birth. The perfidious ColOrsel
PaUlin, of the Bth regiment, part of which he
seduced, abandoned" almost immediately
by his troops, has bee-n mortally wounded, and
• Alyea tip to Gen. Marc. The General of Division

Bonnet; who during these events proceeded by
order of the Government to this place, has great-
ly.contributed, by the precision of his operations,
to tranquillize the minds of the citizens and to
quell the factious. 'At Cap-Ifartiert, General
,Mag,ny gave brilliant proofs of his patriotism,
foresight, and energy. Through his efforts,
Gene-al Richard, one of the principal leaders of
0:e. conspiracy, and_ several officers, his accom-
plices, were seized.on the 25th of February, and
t-!n.t, to Port-au Prince,•where they fell beneath
t':e.t-word of the law. Finally, at Gonaives, the
only place where the insurrection had made.any
progress, it was- quelled in a few days ; the
er,rl;ater :part :of the insurgents are dispersed .;
Gen,ral Dossons, one.of their chiefs, has been
tek.e; -it will- probably not be long ere General
Je,!-:eph Jerome fall into the hands of the troops,
who' are dispatched to pursue. him. Like the'
rock against which the howling waves break, the
ever firm- and steady, has resisted the;
shock of the factio4s. On every point the sacred
chute which- we defend has triumphed : every
%v./Tem.. the efforts. of malevolence have - been
rerAgsred 'unavailing,. and. have .servectonly to .un-
mask and expose the perturbators and enemies
of order. Ilaytians! you have witnessed the
generosity
nerosity and moderation of the government ;

elPr;:e'iits .of aea:.chy and disorder. which, have
tirreateLed our tranquillity. The wish not to
confound the ndsled man with his instigator has
hitherto. withheld, the arm. of the .goverturfent ;
intrulgeq6 further prolonged would be im-
