INFAMOUS.

A private correspondence between prominent
members Of the democratic party and the late col
lector Of the port Of New York Mr.. Jesse Hoy,,
has recently been published by w. L. Mackenzie,
the Canadian refugee, and until recently an officer
of the New York customs. These letters are pub
lished in pamphlet form; and Mackenzie, in his pre-
face alleges that they seized by the Pondcxter
committee as part of the papers of Mr. Collector
Hoyt, though it now appears that this statement is
untrue. Hon. they were obtained, is therefore a
mystery.
Such fragrant violation of the sanctty of private
correspondence has never before to our knowl-
edge during editorial experience of thirty years;
and we are pleased to notice that our own views on
this subject the views Of the great majority OF
the press, without distinction of party. The man
who would be guilty, TO crafty his personal and
malignant feelings Of such baseness, deserves, as he
will receive, the of every honorable person.
Never, within our recollection, has case of this
kind before occurred. We believe it to be unprece-
dented in the political history Of our own any
other country.
We are not among the number who believe that
good result from violation of the honorable
ations existing between man and man. Let the
character of private correspondence be what il may,
there are no circumstances which justify either
party in giving it publicity, and certainly none which
should screen the purioner Of such correspondence
from the obloquy which he 30 richly merits.

IMPORTANT FROM CARE HAYTIEN.-The Pha-
delphia papers contain advices from Cape Hayiien
to the 10th inst. The Hayiien feet, consisting of
barque, a topsal and two other schooners, had a
slight brush with the Dominicans on the I'd inst nj
Montecristo, after which the latter ran their vessels
on shore, and abandoned them. They were subse-
quently gotten off by the Haytiens, and one burned
the other was sent to Cape Haytien as prize.
She is American built, and said to belong to an
American merchant at Port-au-Plate. The Hayden
navy consists of seven sail, all Baltimore clippers
but one. A letter from Cape Hayden says:
"On the 25th ult. an 'arreie' was published here
by the President, declaring all the Dominican ports
blockadcd, and that any foreign merchant who
should, directly indirectly, expedite vessel to
ony of these ports should forfeit his patent, and be
driven from the island.
"This regulation bears particularly hard on some
Of the foreign merchants in this part Of the island
as, at the commencement of the revolution, they
had large outstandings in the Spanish ports, the
most Of which are still uncolected; and their only
means Of late for realizing any part Of these, has
been to order homeward. bound vessels to touch at
Port-au- Platte.
at is also declared that all vessels and merchan-
disc known to have come from the Spanish port,
shall be confscated. This is important as it
respects American vessels as they sometimes touch
at Port-auPlate to try the market, and then enter
here, or further westward; and although, in such
cases. the penalty might not be enforced they would
still be subjected 10 difficulty"

A letter from General Taylor to a citizen of New

"As yet, we have met with no enemy, nor do
expect we shall do soat any rate for some time, as
our chief magistrate cannot declare war; and from

nv DEAR FRIEND; Since my return from Swtzer-

spirits which gained in climbing the rugged noun

What shall | tell you about The Queen Of Eng

nausenn long before this reaches you. The Eng
fish papers represent everything couie de rose COR
nected with her Majestys tour; while the cores
pondents sent by the Paris papers to watch her
progress, racking their wits to find out some de-
feet, something ridiculous about her or her ar
engagements. Jules Janin, the representative ofthe
Journal des Debats, is filling the columns of that
paper with ecstac accounts of the musical proceed
ings in which List is made TO eclipse Prince Az
bert, and Jenny Lind TO draw all eyes as well as
all ears away from Queen Vic Indeed, according
TO Jann the Inauguration Of the statue OF Beethoven
at Bonn, is the great attractions; and the royal per-
sonages present are merely spectators, like the cor
respondent of the Debats.
As a counterbalance TO the Queen of England n
progress, we have that Of the Duke and Duchess de
Nemours through the southern departments, which
seems to have been lugubrous enough. No fe,es,
