Al extract of letter from Port au
Prince, under date of 18th Feb. says -
''There is a rumor here that the French
governmen, is about to issue decree by
which the produce OF this country viii
henceforth, be considered as foreign pro
ductions, and pay forei.n duties even in
French bottoms. Should this be the
case, it will open fine carrying for our
vessels, for as they could then carry the
produce OF this country TO France, on
terms equally as advantageous as French
vessels, and can sail cheaper, We would
naturally get the preference.
"The same remark may be made on
the trade hence TO Great Britain, and
some OF our vessels have already been
lncratively employed in that way since

We publish this morning, the accurate
report furnished by the EdiRburg Scot,
man., OF a speech of Mr.. Jeffrey, the e.
LIBERATED editor of the Edinburg Revue =,
in which splendid tribute of praise is
offered 10 our republic. The London
Morning Chronicle observes in relation
10 it, Nat. Gaz
"We hope that due pains will be tax
en- TO circulate as extensively as posi-
BILE, this unanswerable speech, of which,
we know not whether most TO admire, 1.-The
eloqueBce, or the political wisdom
''une material benefit will be derived
from 1t. II will prove to the Americans,
ehatgt the silly abuse which is heaped on
them in this country is not countenanced
by any of those whose opinions are of
the least value 1t will counteract the
mlschevious effects which the silly and
spiteiul essays OF such men as Clifford
are calculated to produce on the minds
of cur translsntic breihern. Ahey viii
see that there are men Of sense in this
CT pntry, who can appre' late their condi-
ton and who would 30 more think Of
forming an estimate OF their character
from loose stories picked up here and
there by low travellers, than they would
think of recommending our own
Bow street reports d The Legitimate, ma.
'erials for forming an estimate of our
own. This Is 10 slight service Will h
Mr.. jeffrey has rendered at a time
