Speech of general Ferrand, to the folders and
inhabitants, on the walls of Saint Domingo,
Impotence ofthe Brigands.
FRENCH SOLDIERS,
and Inhabitants Of ST. Domingo!
1T is here You mntt remain-It is here you
mutt either fight or peri1'-It is here the All
Powerful God has marked out the place for ven-
geance-It is here you ought to revenge the
names OF your fathers mothers, brothers, filters,
wives, children and friends, who all perin,ed nv
blood thirty hands-hy the monitors who fur
round us! tits here that you ought to thew what
the valor of a chofen few are able to perform a
gan(t number of afiafiins 1t is here where
the field is chalkcd out for victory
Donot be frightened at thofe cannibaIs; they
appear only here ftrong by treacherous murder
againft thofe who are not able TO defend them
feves. But what can their numerous cohort do
aealnit brave folders and place fortified by ma
ture and art Soon you will fee them difperfed
and fall at the foot of thefe ramparts.
They will perhaps tell YOU that they have con-
quered every town in Saint DOMINGO, though
they were fortified and defended by very brave
troops. Pure iuiions They TO be called con-
querors They only conquered thofe towns
which were surrendered to them BY trcacherv
and treaton-none fure was taken by tr,Ie force
except st. Jago; which. though i'll fortified and
defended by handful of inhabitants, has fhewn
what valor could do againft fuch enemies Eich-
teen hundred of thofe barbarians have bit the
duff, and we fhall foon give good account of
the remainder of their army.
Inhabitants of ST. Domingo: do not know,
If your mlsfortunes can bear companion to- the
direfu neceiIity which forces us to give battle
having no Mace f,,r \ retreat nm one eide E,-
rounded by brgands-on the other the fea: ha-
wing not one Jingle vel1el either to fly or to ef-
cape to--no other alternative offers but victory
alone.-l repeat it again, it is here you muft pc
rIfh or conquer Have courage now, let us fight
and victory will be our lot.

does not lofe its efficacy, even when the opera

We apprifed you in our lat, of the blockade
of our port by the Britifh commander on this
fation. He, however, afterwards announced,
that veiiels laden with provilions would not be
prevented from coming in, and accordingly a
number Of cargoes Of wheat and -four from diff
ferent quarters have fince arrived here. Snch,
however, has been the urgent demand for both
thcie articles that the laft cargo of 5000 barrels
Of -four for fae in our bay, has been difpofed of
at the noble price of % 2 dollars per barrel on
board, for the uie of our navy, and at ready mo-
ney. The above price will clearly fl,ow how
great our wants rnuf he, and to which we NUT
add, that at prefent there is not a Jingle fanega
Of wheat or barrel of -four for flle here. There
fore he hrlt importation of either article will
undoubtedly command very high prices. We
muG further add, that we do moi expect any
material decline in our prices until the coleGti-
on ofour enfuing crop takes place, which ac-
corcIHg 70 every appearance, by no means pro-
miles 20 he very abundant. Our government
actually permits the produce of wheat and
