numerous class of inhabitants, the descendants

Government to adopt its usual mode ofsilencing tbi

be productive of incalculable reielts; and we have Ad "

It seems Sir Home Pommes judicial,* conduct ht•rt
treating with civility the Mission sent by BOY ea to
anuouuce his accession to the Presidency of Hayti,
which polite and politic behaviour on the part of Sir .
Home, had made an impression on the new •
President highly favourable to the interests- of
British merchants residing in his territory, ham
excited some displeasure -and jealousy in Jamaimi.
'The Jamaica Journalists, it appears,' view the trans.
action in a very different light; arid the gallant Ad-
aiiral, for having permitted the Hayti Negroes to 7,
partake of the hospitality of his table,in the midst of 4",
his own family, is inveighed against with as muck
"sperity as If he had been guilty of high treason.--
The Admiral, however, may console himself for these
)nvectives, with the reflection that, in respecting the
dignity of human natnre, he, at the same time, best ,
consulted the interests of the British Public. Had he
acted othewise, it was pretty geeerally understood,
that our Merchants would have bees instantly or.
dered off, and their property, amounting to a mil..
lion and a hairs would mile probably have been
sequestrated.

French Papers to the 7th have arrived. ThOegh •

letters from Paris, however, continue to awed the
fact, and impute it entirely to the Ultra-Royalists.

the Vendean Marshal-de.Camp CHAPDELEIREE ; M.
DE Rom LLY, Chief of the Staff to General Cststisr.,
when at Lyons ; and M. DC Sortnes,
Camp to the same General, who, it is said, has .fled.
—The negotiations between Spain and Portugal have,
Wig said, again assumed a turn which is far from fa-
vourable. The Cabinet of Madrid consents to sub-
mit to the mediation of the five Allied Courts, but no
such conditions that Count PALMELLA, it is said, has
declared them to be inadmissible. As in this state of
things the negotiations must necessarily be protracted,
it is thought that the Duke of WELLIMOTOM wilt
soon return to Cambray.
