We ha read, in various American
loufna's, containing letters and accounts
from Port au Prince, that when the Her.
aid containing this article, reached Port
nu Prince, the black Emperor, Faustin
the First, got terribly frightened, and
was very good looking white man-all
but the wool-for nearly twenty-four
hours. He called his Dukes, ministers
and army officers, about him at the pal.
ace, had the Herald's article translated
and read to them, and several private
councils were called. One curious result
followed. Three days afterwards, he
granted the full privileges of consuls to
all Americans sent to the ports of his EN-.
pire, as such, by this government.

Nothing \, has been more gratifoing to me.
than to see that democracy, for a while.
driven from the haunts of men, like an
cient Justice, is returning again, wbip in
hand visiting condign punishment on the.
heads OF the present administration and
its supporters.
Finally, taking into consideration the
iaborlousness of mining, the great heat.
OF the weather during the mining season.
the thermometer frequently rising to 1870
deg Fahrenheitin the shade, and the nu-
merous diseases thus brought on the
white laborers, it seems to me a field is
opened for slave labor exec edinp the
most chimerical fancies of the imaeina-
ton, Indeed the slave owners of the
South would actually realize fortunes bv-
sending, as the Northerners have done

FROM HAVANA.

The Charleston Mercury has the fol-
lowing intelligence, brought by the Isa-
bel, respecting the trial of the American
prisoners at Havana:
The officers, crews, and passengers of
the American vessels still remain in close
confinement. Efforts have been made by
torture to ex.ort confessions from the
captains of the Goergiana anc Susan
Loud, but in vain. They declared re-
Peatedly that they regularly cleared from
New Orleans for Chagres, as was con-
firmed by their papers, that they had no
knowledge of the character or objects of
their passengers until the steamer Creole
came alongside, when number of them
went on boaId of that vessel, and that
they were proceeding on their way to
Chagies when they were captured by the
Spanish steamer.
The captains were then suspended in
the air by cords attached to their thumbs;
but. despite the torture, tbey persisted
in their statement.
Among the prisoners was young law
yer from one of the Western States.
whose symptoms of trepidation gave ex-
pectation that by working on his fears con-
LESSONS might be obtained that would
tend to criminate his companions. A
halter was accordingly placed round his
neck, and cannon balls attached to his
feet, and with the threat of immediate
death hanging over him, under promise
of pardon for himself and for SOME of his
companions whom he named, he made
certain disclosures upon which the author
tiles based their further proceedings.
The American Consul was perempto-
rily refused all access TO or cotnmunica.
ton with the prisoners. To give color,
however, to the proceedings Of the court,
the presence of the British Consul was
invited. A strong disposition was mani
tested to dispose of the two American
captains by summary execution; but
against this course the British consul re-
monstrated warmly, and warned them
that such step would inevitably involve
them in serious difficulties with the
American Government. In consequence
OF these remonstrances the decision of
the court upon their case was postponed.
Inc chlef engineer OF the Matanzas
and Savanilla Railroad died suddenly at
Havana, and it was supposed by poison;
but there is no doubt that his death was
occasioned by over excitement and per-
plexity consequent upon the invasion at
Cardenas.
We have been informed by highly in
telligent gentlemen that the excitement
and terror at Matanzas Havana, and
throughout the island, upon the spread
of the Intelligence of the elanding at Car
denas, was extreme, and in many in
stances the authorities seemed perfectly
.paalyzed. 1t Is their opinion that il q
thousand brave men, well.appolnted and
well ofiiccred, had pushed on promptly
from Cardenas, they could have placed
themselves in the centre of the city of
Havana without serious resistance.
