HAYTI-PREsIDENTs RIcHE AND PlERRoT.
10 letter from Cape Hayden, under date Of April
8, we knd the following de:ais concerning the new
President of Hayu. Gen. Richie, and his predecessor
President Pienot President Richie arrived on the 4th
ins, and will remain at the cape about month
longs. The projected expedition against the Span
sh part Of the island has been relinquishsd and Il is
now hoped some pacific arrangement may be made
between the black population and the Domnieans
Mr.. Duprey, minister Of marine and Of foreign
lairs the most influential counsellor Of the Pres
dent. He u said TO be man Of much intelligence,
and was formerly a merchant at Port au-Prince.
Being qaAdrson, however, 1t is feared that the
jealousy OF the negro leaders may destroy his in
apenee Pierot, the ex-president Of the republic,
remains at his private residenee several miles from
the cape, attended by retinue Of abOu, 300 men.
This body guard is now allowed him, because his
military authority no longer causes any uneasnesI.
Rche, however still seems 10 dread his secret inhu-
snoe, for he refused to enter the city through the
iriumphal arch called Belle Entre, which had been
constructed in his honor, saying that Pierrot had
doubtless put Ooi in it to do him harm. For the
same reason he refused the apartments which Pier
rot had occupied in the national palace. For sew
,ra years Pierrot has passed as the chief king,
pope, Of the Vaudeux, . supersttous sect which
said to have dealings in the Obi magic, so famous
u Jamaica. The mystic rites OF this sect are pro-
Aibitsd by law; but Notwithstanding this, they are
celebrated throughout the island.
When President Richie entered the city, there
we're observed In his escort three officers, Col Des-
slns Col Boyer, and Gen. Pierot, being the sons
Of three ex-presdentS Of the republic; the first Of
whom was assassinated, the second exiled, and the
Aird dethroned.

RICHMOND HUI,

DrAs SIR Some friend has favored me with
your letters Of the 5th, 7th, and 10Th ut to Mr. A.
Lawrence. You show very clearly the fallacy Of
his reasoning. He makes a most unfair use Of a
letter Of mine, by quoting from il garbed extract
without taking the context He is too shrewd and in
elligent not 10 be aware that wheat Indian corn DC
much your natural manu- ufactures (the surpus)
for export, as long you can produce them cheaper
than other countries dry goods and hardware are
ours; and when you transmute the products Of
your soil into cotton fabrics &C. and sell them in for
eign markets 70 advantage without forcing them into
existence by unnatural means il is your interest to do
so. Products that spring up from the advantages ofc
mats, circumstances or situation, without being pro-
scted unauesonably the legitimate manu- factures
of the country, whether wheat anything else and
they do not force capital and labor into less profitable
channels. But consider ii suicidal pursuing any
that will lessen abrdse the expectation Of
those products for which your country is best fitted
and which prevents you receiving the manufactures
or products Of other nations who may happen to
have more natural advantages for their productions
than you hsye. IL Is extreme folly and unjust on
our part refusing to receive your grain, &c. which
gives our landed interest a monopoly OF our market
In both cases II is quite clear benehting class
interests at the expense Of the nation We see our
error in England, and are retrscing our steps, and
am much mistaken il your landed interest are not
| sagacious enough to know that a competition from
being confined to one customer-a home market
alone. The policy Of the manufacturers is clear
enosgh-it is to buy the farmers wheat cheap as
they can, and make them pay higher price at
their shops for clothing than other countries could
suPpiyh at.
Your protection duties check your exports and
keep down the price of your wheat, &c; for you
cannot sell without buying and getting returns
which may make Mr.. Lawrences business less
profitable. Protection puts double-edged sword
into the hands Of the monopolist class, to enable
| them to buy cheap and sell dear.
| am happy to think that the world is getting
| wiser, and will not submit 10 be plundered much
| longer. ! send you copies Of some letters have
written on these subjects. am aware that have
not made the most of my case, but have endeav-
ored to contribute my mite to sustain cause
which think ere long will override those feudal
prejudces which have too long disgraced the stat
| ute book of nations.

From our regular correspondent

PHILADELPHIA, April 30, ls46.
The contest between Messrs. Ingersoll and
Webster is one Of those events which are cacula-
ted to awaken the strongest passions of party.
Many of the scenes gave me profound pain. II was
a mortifying, not to say disgusting spectacle, to
witness grave senator--a man full of years and
honors--a man who had been distinguished the
recipient of high and honorable positions, and many
Of whose public speeches have been pronounced re-
markable specimens of eloquence in all countries,
disgracing himself as a senator, and degrading the
Senate, by display of temper and the use of Ian
guage such as would have been unworthy of n
bar-room, or common pot-house brawler. To see
the orator of Bunker bjll-he competitor of the noble
Hayne in the great discussion of lS30-the euogist
Jay and Msrshall-from whose lips some Of the
most favorite passages of rhetoric in our language
have fallen, trembling with unmanly and undg
nifed rage and bandying such bar.room epithets as
"liar, ;" "creature," "thing," was enough to make
any man. whatever his party blush with shame, and
will furnish our foes in other lands, for years.
with food for bitter and truthful satire. Such was
the course of Mr.. Webster. The department ofMr
lngersol, his opponent, was in most favorable and
refreshing contrast. Calm, gentlemanly, and brief
he repelled the accusations of his foe and restated
his own charges distinctly and authoritatively; and
question greatly whether the last rejolnder of Mr.
lngerso is not calculated to carry conviction the
popular mind. II will, at all events, require some
other means to refute it than low blackguard epi.
thets, or that system of reply which is vugarly
called making mouths" Mr. Webster and his
friends owe it to themselves to meet these charges
not by recriminations against Mr.. Ingersol with
which the principal subject is in no possible manner
connected, but by proofs and facts. Mr.. Ingerso
is one of the abest and most powerful Of our popu
lar leaders, and has contributed much to the eleva
ton of the democratic party; and although his
grave charges against Mr. Webster are regarded
sacrilege by the wings, and have been received by
them with bowling and curses, let him be well as
sured that he is looked upon with no less favor by
his political friends and the more especially as he
has borne himself like gentleman from first to
last
Il is proposed by the wings Of this city to give
Mr.. Webster great dinner in short time. IL my
recollection serves me rightly, there is somewhere
in history, chronicle Of the sayings and doings Of
"the god-liken at place called Pstchoge, at which
he threatened to maui anybody who came within

A WORD FOR PENNSYLV VANIA.

The bill granting to the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-
road Company the right Of way through Pennsyl-
vania has passed finally; but with proviso that il
y 600 900 Of the stock Of The Central Railroad be sub
ised, 100000 paid in, and 80 miles put under con-
rad on or before the 3Oh day Of July, ls47, the act
shall be null and void. We are satisied with this
result Of the controversy. II Pennsylvania, more
dull than the earth-worm, will not use the privileges
which nature has given her--let them pass into
vorther hands. But we have not doubt that,
hus stimulated, she will be just to herself and pos
srity, We have contended against the surrender
d the commerce OF the West, because zoe kneo that
he Central road would, il uncrippled by foreign
nvalry, be constructed. The legislature has taken
osd our word; and has given us the prior prvi-
| sge claimed by us. II is for Philadelphia now tc
determine whether the trade shall be ours, or be
EVen to Baltimore. Will the stock be takenl i

WEsr RoxBuRr, April q, Isit

Chas. G. Grssnt, esq, sdiisr Of the Boston Post:
DEAR SIR: | have no desire TO prolong discus
sion OF which, probably, your numerous readers
have already had enough; but having received this
morning letter from VIM. Brown, esq, Of Liver
poel, whom Mr.. Lawrence, in his second communi-
cation to Mr. Ryes, fns so justly characterized as
zone OF the most eminent merchants, as well as one
Of the best and most honorable men in England"
deem il only justice TO give the letter Of my esteem
ed friend the largest circulation In my power. My
duty in the present case appears the more obvious
as, by publishing the letters Of Mr.. Lawrence with
my own, may perhaps be considered as having aid
ed in giving currency TO what Mr. Brown informs
me he considers "an unfair use" Of his argument.
therefore send you the communication, and hope
you may be able and willing TO give il an early In
sertion in the Boston Post
remain, very truly,
Your friend and obedient servant.
