Mr.. BIRNEY has done) avow himself willing to take
an oath to support the Constitution, and yet declare
his determination to disregard certain parts OF that
instrument, should be willing to promote servle
insurrection or to deprive individuals of property
guaranteed TO them by the Constitution and Laws.
This political abolitonist aspres to be the President

We should be sorry to suppose that all abolitionsts
are SO INSCRIPTIONS ; but yet they must know that,
to wrest the slave from his owner or to overthrow
the institutions of the South, would be violation
of law and of justice.
From the publications made pending the late Pre-
sid entail election, in relation to Mr.. Brney we had
ceased to respect him as an honest but misguided
man; but we confess that we were not prepared to
suspect him Of such gross profigacy isatributed
to him in his latest letter. We could not believe
that any man of intelligence, and especially one who

President PrrHAuLr arrived here this afternoon from Port
accompanying his RETURN which has been rather
pected and precpitae his official visit the capital has
far from satisfactory. On his arrival Port Prince he is
said to have ordered the troops Of that place march upon
the Spanish frontiers, giving the command Gen. Richie
like himself old general Of the time of Christophe The
troops refused march, and the President ordered them 10 be
decmaed This order Richie refused to execute and in the
confusion which followed the President is said to have been
shot at.
II is further reported that at interview which the French
Consul General had with the President shortly after his ai-

former that the present dsunion of the and had
been brought about mainly by the Vaccinations Of the French
Government further payments would be made until the
French and Spanish parts Of the island should again be uni
ted whereupon, il is said the French Consul demanded his
passports The French claims present amount to little
short Of thirteen millions Of Spanish dollars Dsaecon to the
President has been still further increased at Port Prince by
the belief that he cheshes undue paraly for the NORTH
and the apprehension that he intends to remove the seat OF
governmental Cape Hayden
II is uncertain how much Of truth there may be in the
above reports which cannot be verified before the sailing
