party. Col. Gears majority Mr. Brcnham, (vhig)

Owing TO the number OF crossed and split tickets the

on the flowers like other happier dew drops, that
live the whole night through, and sparkle in the
moonlight, aud through the morning onward to
monday. The SUM- said the child, has chased
them away with his hear, or swallowed them up

Advices from Teremie, Hayti, to the 18th OF DC
tober, state that hostilities have actually COM
menced between the Haytiens and Dominicans
On the 9th inst, as the vanguard of Soouque's
army was descending the Pass of Bonica, they
were attacked by about 500 Dominican troops,
who drove back the Haytiens with terrible slaush-
ter. The announcement of this defle skirmish
caused much uneasiness to the Emperor, who
marched on the 18th from Petit Goaye, the head
of his staff and 400 of his Guards take the field
in person against the Dominicans. In addition to
the above defeat Hayten brig of war, with $50
men on board, was captured off SCOTS Bay'by
two Dominican schooners of war, or gun boats,
and carried as trophy into Macao Roadstead.
These hostilites have had very disastrous effect
on the trade OF the island There was no coffee
to be had and the cutting Of logwood and ma
hogany was under restriction.
