We take great pleasure in republishing from the
n. 0. Delta tho following able and very interesting
article which is natural off.shoot of the valuable
communications, headed "Sin.mark of CAIN that
have appeared in the Enquirer. In regard to one OF
the most striking and momentous views of the com
munication below, it may not be amiss to supply q
few facts, based upon unquestionabe authority. we
have had true history of Hayti II Is geher'
ally thought that the negroes rebcled against their
masters and cut their throats. So far from H. there
are now, or were short timo since negroes Ill the
city of New Orleans, who have on their persons
wounds received in ST. Domingo in defending theil
masters ana mistresses. The truth is, that the mu
lattoes, and their negroes fight against the whites
and their negroes. SauthonaI, the Generai OF 'he
French army, took the part Of the former-So dd the
British The object of the British was to transfer
the indigo culture to Inda. In l7S9, Hayt' made
Gve.sixhs of tho indigo OF the world. In few years
nfter British India made tve-sxths OF the indigo o.
the world and continues to do to the present day
Th<two hundred negrocs, who fought under Gen
Jacksnn on the famous ODD December and S!h Janu
arv, were nearly all IIayti negroes, who fed with
the;r masters to this country. The two regiments o
Jamaica negroes, whom the British brought with
them. were the most cowarlly dogs OH tho field o
battle because they had no nusters; whereas the Hay
ii NEGROES, in Jacksons army, fought like tigers, un
der the eve of their old masters. For instance, VIC
learn from, most reliable source, Col. Chotard, q
native of Hayti three times boat OIL, with his Hayt
nc,roos. the assaults of the British tho artillery
on the night of the 23l December. What complete
e,oppel are these facts to the arrogant and malignant
boustings of the aholitionists
P.S. Since writing the above we have received
Saturdays Union which says:
W. havo now = cali the attention of the reader 10
very remarkable communication, tskcn from Inc
New Orleans Delta, on the subject OF tho rcr'rW 81
the african STARE tr0de-an alternative which, now
over strongly and vehcmcnty rejected by the patri-
otjc statesmen of the South, begins 10 acquire
signficance from the savage violence and lnlumall
threats of the fanatics Of the free States. This arti-
Gle il from the prolific pcn of the venerable Dr. Cart
wright of New Orleans, whose name alone Is sufficient
guarantee that the subject has been well and faithful
" treated DIR. Cartwright, when he wrote tins com
nluuication rusticn,ing on the banks Oh Lnkc
B,rrue the last Amcricuu soil that hostile loot
ever trod, and in full view of the harbor Ill which
the British feet luv i'll lSl4-'l5. From the spot
where he wrote the remnant of the British army was
seen hvinc in terror to its shipping before the
ayepriir sword of Andrew Jackson. That army
was nothing to the army of British hirelinSs and
deluded fanatics stealthily introduced into this couD-
try. They have already conquered C0nnecticnt'
Vermont aud Massachusetts, and drc, rs NC have seen,
preparing to extend their aggressive policy all over
the North in order tho more ccctuay TO subdue and
to degrade the South. The argument OF DR.. Cart
wright is so full clear and convincing that we give 1t
to our readers without another word.
