The Commissioners sent to France from Hayii.
have failed in negotiating, for acknowledging the
linden Evidence Of st. Domingo.
There are circumsta in the history of St.
Domingo and the present government, which con-
stitute powerful claims upon the friendship aud
protection of every civilized nation. IL is rare
event in the history ofuaions, TO see colorcd po-
ulation with mild and equitable form of govern
ment-with just laws, strictly enforced and gene
rally respectcd-vgith enlightened, intelligent
administration, and well organized national force
this really exists in Hayti, and while the conduct
Of that government is such as to command conf
dcnce and esteem, its claims to open uuequivosal
recognition are not to be disputed. As to any at
tempts on the part Of France to regain possession
Of the Island, we consider them all unavaiug
The Island is we'll defended, the mountains afford
ing strong retreats--the troops numerous and we'll
organized, and tropical sun and climate not very
congenia to Europeans, are obstacles not easily o.
vercome.
The Hayticns are capable Of defending them
selves; and we did believe when the negotiation
was fast opened, that France would have seen her
interest in embracing the valuable commercial pri-
viieges which were toB5oyed 70 her.

The reply of La Fayette 10 the Committee from

seem to indicate that he will take Richmond in his
way to iors-Ioton. But ii is obvious from the ar
rangcnerts which have made under different
impressions that this cannot, consistently with
the rrgnta preparation, be pursued. He has
therefore been notified, Cor will in time be notifiedA
that kork IS the spot on which he is expected to
make iIs public entry into Virginia. This intima-
tiou Will be some relief to him inas,nuch as he
may, III consequence of this alteration in the route
he had marked out for himself take rather mora
time both for enjoyment and repose, at Baltimore,
Voh"gton' and Mount bernon. than he had con-
templated We are on every account pIad ,,a,
yorktown will be the fiYst place al which he will
meet the citizens of Virginia. The spot is one which
will need phcrnalia set off the associ.
aions unavoidably produced by re-tisiting it will
be quite sufficient to give it the deepest interest
and the simplicity of the scene, after the pfofuscu

wind then blowing a gale from ENE, the bark
sprung leak. On ihe it'll. at about 5 p. m.

bar were fortunately taken OFF BY the pilot boat
Friends which quickly came 60 their assistance.
At tue time the bark Gc1. two of the sesrr1ou
