HAYTL--Ihe news from this isa nd confirms
our previous reports. The revoluiionists are car.
rying nil before them. The prociamations Of their
leader are spirited enough: "The wand Of des.
po'ism no says. has too long blighted our spir-
Its. The period OF our sofferngs has terminated
with Tho establishment OF a new CONSTITUTIONS
providing for the reformation Of abuses tho abo.
lition of presidency for life. the encouragement
OF agriculture, OF industry, Of commerce and tho
arts and the founding Of new institutions

bring US news of the capture Of Por, gu Prince.
and The escape death of Boyer.
