ANNEXATION OF HAYTr.

ANNEXATION OF HAYTT.
The n. Y. Herald scouts the idea of an
attempt TO conqner Cuba-but is sure of
Hayti. For a long time our Government
has been seeking Hayti. If we mistake
not, Mr.. Calhoun avowed tat he had agents
there to promote insurrectou and civil war.
when he was Tyler's secretary All the cor
spiracies snd instructions that have occur.
red there, we believe were promoted by this
Government. The Herald processes to
know all about this matter. Itsays
But if there are no movements being made
towards the annexation of Cuba, there have
been some made i'll reference 10 the island
Of Hayti. His ExceIIeucy b. B. Green.
was despatched there with the view of ma
king report on its present. state, its poPula>
ton. SOIL climate, and other matters, as well
as on its social and political condition and

pairing and getting ready the result OF his

from the information which we have received
to see, before long, an expedition tl.,uI cut
in this country. with the sanction of the
government at Washington, from some of
the southern ports, for the purpos of aiding
and assisting the Dominican, or Spanish
portion of the inhabitants Of that Island, a.
gainst the blacks annex it TO the U. :. A
project of this kind could be openly advoca-
cd IN this country, and measures taken to
equip an expedition Of this character with
out obstruction from any quarter. Il would
be glorious thing TO put down that worst
of p rat3s-that worst of charcoal pirates
h. tln IF
called empire Hayt, and to reduce Faustln
the First to the condition for which nature
intended him.

We regard the adoption of Foote's rosOIu-
