puished some time since in extract from
letter written from Hayti, by an agent de-
putcd by the Emigration Society, to ascer-
tain the condition Of the emiSrants to that
place, to his correspondent in Philadelphia.
He then represents the condition oil the eni-
igrants as very favorable; that the causes OF
their complaints originated amongst them

ticable, that the cuigrants after they reat
them, have none 70 blame but thenselve
if they complain hereafter of any grievance
which may, by the exercise of a little fore
sight and plain common sense, be so easil,
prevented. We subjoin an axtract from an
other letter, because it furnishes additional
evidence of the exalted character of Mr.
Granville, and tends to confirm the impress
