A friend has politely furnished US with
Port au Prince Gazette dated March 4. pub
lished at tbegovernmen, press which gives
an account of the troubles at st. Marc and
Gonaives since Esd Feb. of which the
following is summary translated for our
readers.
Before the fall and death Of Cristophe
John Peter Richard, duke of MarmaIade,
general OF division and governor ofVille de
Cap, conceived the project, OF supplanting
bis master on the throne.
The confidence of Cbristophe, owing TO
Richards apparent devotion to his service,
taking good care, however, to throw upon
Cristophe the odium of all his unpopular
conduct, gave him great advantages for the
accomplishment of bis purposes.
Among those whom he associated with
himself was colonel Paulln of the 18th regi-
meDt man of great ambition and avarice.
Pauin being suddenly arrested by Christie
phe, Richard, Iearning:as well the LOGS of his
principal supporters and the disclosure OF
his conspiracy, determined to save Paulin
at every risk and TO press his movements a
gainst Christophe.
This vas the principal cause Of the dis
turbance at St. Marc OF Oct. 2, which would
have been speedily repressed if the deiec-
ton of Richard had lot paralysed all the
means which Chrostopbe had for this pur-
pose, Richards plan was to oppose the u
Mon of the north or to form seperate state
of which be was to be head. and he used
all his intrigues TO keep alive the scbism
which had divided the country; but the ra-
pidity and vigor with which the republican
troops advanced, Disconnected all his mea-
sures Richard and his associates however
were all pardoned. Richard however,
having on the fall of Christophe seized
gre al part OF the treasures; &, as is said, one
of bis crowns kept bis former design still in
view, and aspired to the command OF the
ACCOMPLISHMENT of Cape Hayden, which
would have afforded new means to his de-
signs.
The President of Hayti appointed to this
command general Magny; but wishing BY

ASSURANCE.

There is a good story Of assurance
in BeIknap's History of New Hamp-
shire. ~ certain captain, John I'm
derhill, in the days of puritanism, af.
firmed. that having long lain under a
spirit of bondage, he could get no as
surance till at length. as he was TAX
ing a pipe OF tobacco, he set home up.
on an absolute promise of free grace,
with such assurance and joy, that he
had never since doubted of his good
estate, neither should he, whatever
sins he might fall into. And he en-.
deavored to prove that as the Lord
was pleased to convert Saul while he
was prosecuting, so he might manifest
himself to him while making mode
rat use of the good creature. tobacco y
this was one of the things for which he
was questioned and Censured by the
elders at Boston,"

perhaps thirty years; that is, in other

beniit 10 attach Richard. he Confirmed him
in his rank of General of Division, and the
command of the place pf Cape haytien'
Richard was now urged on by revenge a
eainst the President as well as ambi,
ton, and the President was often warned
Of his macbinatins. He, however, did nc
more than keep strict watch on Richard:
movements.
But hardly had the President returned to
Port au~Prnce, when some ferment arising
at the Cape. which Magny was unable to
appease Richard and bis associ tes threw of
the mask. With the gold which he had
amassed by gambling and otherwise, COLO
mel Paulin attempted TO gain over the 9th
regiment, and partly succeeded. On the
25th of February he endeavored TO make
himself master of ST. Marc, hut was defea t.
ed in his object by brigader- general Marc
Jervant nd adJuiant general Constant Paul
who had some artillery at their command.
The 9Th regiment returned to its duty, aban-
doned PauIin. and delivered him up, Sc.
riously wounded to the General. Paulin
died shortly after OF his wounds. Colonel
Belzunce, and er-aid of Christophe's, who
had also been engaged in the Instruction
was seized aud delivered up.
Tranquility was restored by the submits
sion of the 9Th regiment, and has been pre-
served by general Bonnet, Marc, Jervant
and Constant.
While these things were going on at ST.
Marc, generals Joseph, Jerome and Dos
sous, by the promises of piIage. corrupted
the 25th regiment, No. 2, stationed al Co.
naives, and not doubling the success Of Pau
lin, who they expected the second time,
they attacked general Francisco, who was
obliged to get on ship board.
The commune of Gonaives was pillaged
by the rebels, who committed every act OF
excess: but deceived in their hope of sup
port, and alarmed at the consequences Of
their excuses, they have mostly dispersed,
and left the instigators Of the revolt to the
punishment which awaits them.
Richards designs being thus discovered
at the moment be was about raising the
standard OF revolt, he was arrested at Cape
Haytien on the Goth of February. Four of
his accompices, colonies Cimitiere and
Pierre Paul. captain Dominique, and lieu
tenant Lamisierre, were arrested at the same
time, and sent to Port-au.Prince, where
they arrived on the lst of March. They
were Immediately thrown into prison, and
orders for their trial issued. Richard, on
account OF his rank, will be tried by spe-
cial military council; the others by an ordi-
nary court martial
The paper from which the above account
is taken, is written with great spirit, and
in as governmental style as the readers of
the Courier, or Moniteur have been in the
habit of reading.

The Virginia State Armory. ot Richmond
has been for some time in precarious stu
alton, from the certainty and amount of lis
annual cost and the uncertainty OF ITS utlli-
ty. The Legislature of the state, at its last
session., made limited appropriation which
was made in such a vague terms that the
auditor of the state con idered 1t as being
no appropriation at all &. the Superior Court
OF Law for the city OF Richmond has sus-
tanned his decision. This institution, it is
said, has cost the state million and halt
of dollars, with vety little comparative be-
neft.
