FROM HAyTI.-Port Republican papers of the
a7t uitirno state that ex1President HERAnD, after
lowering about the coast for some days and making
several attempts to land succeeded at last in getting
on shore at small village called g Grand-Gosier,"
near Jacmel. His idea was that the people OF JAG
mel and of the neighboring country would flock to
his standard but forces were marching against him,
and it was the opinion that he would be captured if
he did not save himself by timely fight

Itseems by the following paragraph from the
Houston Morning Star (of Texas) that the erection
Of lighthouses at Galveston and Matagorda is to be
postponed until annexation takes place:
We have been authorized by the Secretary Of the Irea-
su mention that he has determined not to conclude any
contract for the erection of the lighthouse at Galveston
that at Matagoa He considers it certain the coun
try will be soon the United States that he deems
advisable to husband the limited Of the country to
deay the expenses Of the Congress and the Convention that
win be convened and he considers that the United
States having ample will erect lighthouses at these
points early PERIOD far better adapted to the of
vgaors than any that could be erected with the small
priations made by our Congress.

HEALTH OF New ORLEANS. The Bee OF the
18th inst. says, eve have no change to report
in the sanitary condition of the city. We made
inquiries last night as extensively as we have
for severa! nights past, ard have been told at
every place We visited, including the hospitals,
that the yellow fever has not yet made its ap-
pearance. IN conversation with medical gen.
sloman las. night, he informed US that he has
never known the city to be moro free from the
inyarabc torerunners of the epidemic, viz
malignant congestive, bilious and intermittent
leyers. With this fact in view, and the ad-
yanced period of the season, he is of opinion
that no apprehensions need now be entertained
Of discontinuanco Of the present unprecedent-
ed good health enjoyed by our citizens"

CITY lNTGiLiGENCE.

PoJbel7I. \ man calling himself Watkins,
entered the book store of Mr.. G.. iIanzche, in
Baltimore street, yesterday afternoon during
the temporary absence Of the proprietor and
robbed the drawer Of all its contents. The
thief was promptly arrested by officer Graham
aud taken before Justice Sehaetter, who fully
committed him for trial at the approaching
term of the city court:-S5 of the money found
upon his person was identified by MIR. Han2-
che.
Murder most tOul! Yesterday morning a
shocking murder was committed at the corner
of Pratt and Douglas streets. The person who
pcrpetrated this terrible deed, did it by taking
the object of his vengeance and deliberately
dashing its brains out against the curb stone.
The deceased was an unfortunate little pig,
which had ieIoniously trespassed upon premis-
es where he had no right to 90.
Fined. Conrad Bra I'd, for throwing stones
in the public streets, was yesterday arrested by
officer Swick and fined 81 and costs by Justice
McAlistcr.
In Jail Darlton Williams, for threatening
and abusing the family of James Hamilton was
arrested yesterday by officer Barnard, and, in

committed yesterday by Justice Wright, to ap-
pear at Court.

per, was arrested yesterday by officer Snyder,
and committed TO Jail by Walton Gray, Esq,

We nope that there will be a general rally Of

The MgrrtNG OF THE JuDGEs. five un-
derstana the proceedings at the meeting held
BY the Judges of election on Wednesday even
ing last, they amount to nothlng-that is, there
vas no decision whether the law of the State
a.iaII or shall not be carried into effect We
eouess .ha: we were surprised at the doctrine
advanced uy some of the Judges, who assumed
the ex.rao.dnary position, that they tthe judg-
l-s.4 possessed the right to decide as to the con-
saitutouaIi.y of the law which required that
certificates Of naturalization shall be stamped
when voted. This idea is not only novel, but
al variance with common sense; and, If carried
out, would destroy the structure of civil socle-
ly. Where would be the use Of having Court
Of Appeals 10 determine the conslituLonality Of
laws, il, Judges Of election or private lndiVIdu-
ais, can righiulIy nulIiy those laws! 1t is an
absurd ana autcnlbc position As we'll might

having sworn to discharge their duties in con-

disregard any provision las which they might

Improved FIRE ENGINE. MIR. Earnest Mars,
cabinet maker, Of Now York, has invented a
mode Of propclling the fire engine, by which it
can be worked by a less number of men and
with much greater case than by the brake, the
present mode BY means Of a screw, turned
in a moment by crank attached, the machine
is lifted from the ground when required to be
Sc. in motion, and the hind wheels made to
serve as fly wheels. With the aid of Il rope
attached to the fly wheels, the machine can be
any persons at a fire disposed TO lend hand
have only to lay mold Of the rope and assist to

!
in some cases by Imprisonment, in Others by a
fine of from e5 to $3.50. The whole number
of indictments found, will be between $50 and

DmrIsH MILITARY MOVEMENTS. We per-
ceive by the Canada and West India newspa-
pers, that the whole Of the regiments of the
Canada Militia, with considerable additions,
are to be put in complete order-vacancies Of
officers in the more practical posts, to be filled
by officers of the line. The same activity ex-
lists in the British West India Islands, especial
ly among the colored regiments, which are to
be increased and filled up to full compliments,
and chiefly otficered from the line.
