FROM HAYTI.-We are indebted TO Can.
tain Bartlett, Of the schooner Fawn, from
Jacmel, whence he sailed on the 22nd of
April, for note OF the state of affairs when
he left. The election of Pierrot to tie
Presidency he thinks not likely TO insure
Tranquility, as it was the work ef,he Council
Of State exclusively, and the people at large
had no part in it.
1t was not known at Jacmel, when the
Fawn left, whether Pierrot had arrived or
not at Port Republican. from Cape Hay,ien,
where he was stationed when Gurrier died
Ex-President Herard, after lowering about
the coast for some days and making several
attempts 10 land, succeeded at last in getting
on shore at small village called Grand
Gosier,' near Jacmel, where he remained
when the Fawn left, his schooner being an
chored of the village. His idea was tina,
the people of Jacmcl and of the neighboring
country would 1ock to his standard; but for.
ces were marching against him and it was
the opinion that he would be captured if he
did not save himself by timely flight.-
