FROM ST. DOMINGO.

Dominican man-of.war schooner, belonging
merly the pilot boat Romp, arrived off here to-day
with letters from General Santa Ana to Gen
Villaneuve, informing him that he, Santa Ana
had been legally chosen by the legal Junta Pres.
ident Of the Republic, in the city of st. Domingo
Gen. Villanueve sent his son, and aid, Colonel
Toutio, on board of her to invite the Captain to
bring his vessel in, which he did. He salnted
| the town, which was returned by the fort. The
| same legal Junta that Gen. Santa Ana has rein
| stated, are the self-chosen or appointed, who
wished to, or who in fact did cede SANTANA to the
French The party that President Duarte is the
chief of are opposed to the French protection.
Since the deposition of the first named part of
the Junta, the French have been actively en-
pIoyed in Port-au- Prince, to create there diver
sion of the Black Government against the East.
The same activity in intrigue has been displayed
at Cape Hayden. 1t is not yet ascertained with
what success. M
At the time that Gen. Duarte was proclaimed
President at La Vega and on this side of the ISL
and, Gen. Santa Ana was on the frontiers with
his army. While there, he received commits
sion from Port-au-Prince, after which he COM
menced his march on st. Domingo--hs army in
creasing on the rouIe Report says he appeared
before the city with an army of 5000 men, in a
tolerable state OF discipline, and was by them
made President. He is in favor of French pro-
tection--so report says. Whether such prolec-
ton would benefit the country is hard to tell.
On the incple that powerful friend is ben
eft the protection of the French may possibly
benefit these people, provided their commerce
with other nations, and their own internal Gov
ernment, are not interfered with.
AS before informed You, Gen. Duarte is a
uhta man ahont IN voars old Con 81 Aoa ir
Spanish white, about SIS years old. The last
named has devoted all his fortune to this revou-
ton two Of the man-of-war schooners are his
private properly. The existing difficulties may
be amicably arranged but believe myself there
will be some fighting, if the two Presidents can
bring their followers up to it. TheNpeople don't
like that sort of work--N Y. Jour. IF Commerce.

DIED,

On the 18th ult after a short illness, WILLIAM
HENRY, son Of William c. +. and Frances Dulaney
Ecklof, aged 10 months and days.
When we look upon the death of those who have
passed through life's uneven way, and arrived at a
mature age, we shudder: but when we see bloom
ing infant snatched from its parents-from all who
loved and priced him as this infant has been, must
we not feel sentiment deeply painful, warning us
of the uncertainty Of death and the shortness of this
life. One consolation, however, we are blessed with
that is, the thought that he has gone to an mmorta
ty beyond the grave where reacheth not, MOI
tribuatlon entereth, for God has said suffer little
children to unto me, for such is the kingdom
Heaven"
Beauteous babe and art thou gone
Invdlous death has round thee drawn
His deep, oblivious veil.
Low in the grave thy form is laid,
Doomed like flower, TO fall aud fade,
Beneath the passing gale.
Y ct, lovely babe, we know that thou
Hast gone where saints and angels bow
Before the throne on high.
And the blest hope to meet thee there,
Shall dry the tear ofwild despair
And check the rising sigh.
Soft DER the spot where thou art now
The heavens shall ever DER thee bow,
And flowers shall round thee bloom;
Angels will guard thy happy sleep,
And oft on lowering mons keep
Their vigs DER thy '[ombs. J. +. OBJ
