NF.W YORK, NOVEMBER 4.

Captain Mason, of the Weymouth, in 22 days from
Port-au-Prince, has furnished some particulars of the
disasters by the gale at that place, on the 29th of
September; three American vessels were entirely lost
outside the harbour, and great damage was done to
the coffee plantations in the neighbourhood. He also
informs us, that the Emperor Christophe died on the
sth July last, and that the circumstance had been
kept secret till this time by his family, with a view,
it is said, of placing his son on the Throne. A re-
volt, however, had taken place among the troops,
and the secret was let out.

A body of 6,000 troops, * St. Marc's, had sent a
Deputation to Port-au-Prince, asking protection of
the President (Boyer), who was astonished at the in-
' telligence, and would not believe it till he had sent
one of his Aides to ascertain the fact.
The Officer returned with a full confirmation of
the news, and Boyer immediately set oft put himself
at the head of the revolted troops, and entered St.
Marc's at the head of 18,000 men, in triumph.
Active measures were taken to fit out all the armed
vessels at Port-au-Prince, and it was believed the
President would subjugate the territory of his old
enemy without any difficulty.

FARTHER PARTICULARS,
RECEIVED AT LLOYD'S THIS DAY.

Extract of a Letter from the Agent to Lloyd's,
dated Cape Henry, 15th October :
" On F.riday, the Gth, about ten o'clock at night,
the inhabitants of the Cape were alarmed by the
drums beating to arms; and were soon informed that
the troops had revolted, and that they were deter-
Mined no longer to have a King. ,Ou the followingl
day, the troopx.were marched out of the town,.with
the Governor of the Cape at their head, joined by a
great•purnber of the inhabitants, who were furnished
with arms: they took up a 'position on..the high road
to the King's residence. On Supday, their. Were

" On Mondat, the Prince Royal was taken, and
conveyed to his Palace, where he i-emains under ar.
rest, with the other ',finales Of the Royal ramilv.
" From the 6th to the 10th, all business was at a
stand ; but property, of all descriptions, both pabl7:
and private, was respected. They appear unanimous
in the choice of a new Ruler ; but under uhat title

" Not one drop of blood has been shed in this
Revolution, fiom either private or public revenge;
and it would really appear that they had but u:;e
enemy, and he was so great a one to thee? happiness,
that his destruction has swept away all animosity.”

County Meetings are about to be held in all quar-
ters of the Kingdom, fur the purpose of expressing a
just abhorrence of the late and intended proceedings
against the Quee:c.
At the head of the Durham list of Requiyitionis:s
is Lord DARLINGTON, the Lord-Lieutenant of tl.e
County : the other names are all of the highest res-
pectability and consequence. The High Sheriff dil
not hesitate to comply with a request so authorized,
and has appointed the 13th inst. for the day of meeting.
The most important portion of the Aristocracy of
Yorkshire, with Lord Ftrzyw...t.: -tNI at their bead,
have addressed to their High S:le:iff the following
Requisition :

" We, the undersigned, viewing the lc..e !.lings inrtitutA
against her Majesty the QuEss, as opper s,ive 4:1 unconstitu-
tional, request that you will call a Meeti::g of the Freeholders
of the County, to take into considerstioe the propriety of peti-
tioning the two Houses of l'.oliament to use their influence to
restore to her Majesty those rights and privileges which apper-
tain to her dignified station, and thus terminate proceedings
alike derogatory to the Crown, aud wjurious to the best ir.-
terests of the country."

It is more than probable, that Westmorland and
Northumberland will precede YOrldtire in getting

their Petitions and Addreiser finished, owing to the
great extent of the latter, and the consequent delay
that must intervene before the vast population of this
extensive Province can be conveniently collected: .

In the meantime, all the satellites and expectants of
the men who have brought the country into its present
state, are very active in their exertions to procure what
they call " Loyal Addresses." The distinction they
wish now to establish is, that all Addresses to the
knat, which avoid coodemning the late measures of
his Ministem are " Loyal ( but all Addresses to his
1114tiitsrV, ton deMning fink Conduct, are " Disloyal!''
The old- cant of " dacOins."- and- " Republicans" is
now discarded.—,Having not only been worn thread
bare, but absolutely into rags and tatters; unable
any longer to cover-the nakedness of those who used
them, they have, most ungratefully been-diicardedy
and the new slang of " Radicals"—" Sergamists"--
Queenists," and " Anarchists," have been sitbiti-
toted :—By whom ? By the filters ofthe (keen Bags !
By the hirers, employers, and abettgrsof a De Mont,
a Majoccla, a Rastelli, a Sacchi; a CacAi, a Garguih,
a Paturzo, and such worthies !! For Adiattpurpose ?
To get•themselves kept in some kind of tOuntettance,
by the feeders on corruption.

MIDDLESEX MEETING.-(THIS DAY).

The Meeting of the Freeholders of the County of
Middlesex is now holding at Hackney, for the pur-
pose of considering the propriety of addressing the
KING for the dismissal of his Ministers. At twelve
o'clock, the Great Room at the Mermaid Tavern,
was filled by persons of respectability in the County;
but the principal persons in attendance did not ar-
rive until one o'clock.

Among them are the Members for the County,
Mr. BYNG and Mr. WHITBREAD, together with Mr.
J. CLARKE, Major CARTWRIGHT, the Rev. Mr.
DRAPER, and a number of other Gentlemen of re.
spectability in the County. A rumour was afloat
that it was intended to oppose the object of the Meet-
ing ; but there is no appearance of any such fruit-
less attempt.

Sir FRANCIS BURDRTT is momentarny expected.
The Sheriffs are also in attendance..
The business of the Meeting is likely to go on
with unanimity.

A numerous and respectable Meeting of the Inha-
bitants of Credit= was held on Saturday last, pur-
Fuant to public notice, when it was resolved unani-
mously that an Address be presented to her MA-
JESTY, congratulating her on the abandonment of
the Bill of Pains and Penalties lately introduced into
Parliament against her. It was also resolved unani-
mously, that the Thanks of the Meeting be given to
our worthy countryman, Mr. Alderman WOOO, for
his able and zealous support of her AlAJesrir during
the late unprecedented proceedings.
The following is a Copy of a Letter from the Earl
of DARLINGTON to Mr. Alderman WooD, enclosing
Fifty Pounds : " Raby Cassie,' November 116.
" DEAR Sts—ln returning you my thanks for the favour of
your letter received yesterday‘ I must again apologise for
troubling you on the same subject, which may be consiesr.4
of trivial importance; but I feel so much anxiety to render 'of
feeble assistance in procuring for her Majesty soda a suitable : of
necessary appendage to her high station and dignity, as a Serv;,e
of Plate, that I hope I may be excised for taking the liberty of
forwarding to the Committee, through the channel of yoursel,
what I now enclose, to be added to the Subscription.
" Allow me to remain,
" Dear Sir, your obedient Servant,
(Signed) - " DARLINGTON."
