HE DEFEAT OF THE EMPEROR SoLoUoUB.-
Ne,o YORK., Jan. 26.-Tne Times has private
letters from Port au Prince to the Both of De-
cember, giving full particulars of the Emper-
or's defeat and flight. His army consisted of
about 80 000 men, which were divided into
three detaehments. The army of the north
under the command of Paul Ducayete, of
1000 men; another of 1000 men, which took
southern route, and the main body of the
army under the Emperor, which took south
ern route. Nothing is known except that af-
ter crossing the line they were met by body
OF Dominicans, and the Jacmel regiment,
which was in advance, broke their lines at the
first fire, preciPitated themselves upon the
real, and produced a general rout of the whole
regiment. The force under the immediate
command of the Emperor amounted to about
$4,000 men. When near Las Caholas, in an
open plain bordered by piece of woods, they
came upon body of Dominicans, about 400
in number, with a cannon. The advance
guard continued to move Forward until with
in gun-shot of the Domincans, when con-
Hict occurred, and the Haytens made a pre-
cipitate retreat, throwing themselves upon the
main body of the army, which was simultane-
ously charged by the Dominicans. A gem
eral retreat of the Haytens now ensued ,leav-
ing the Emperor and his staff almost alone -
They took to by. path through the woods,
and escaped, but by tire narrowest chance
Irhe enemy wereat one time within few feet
Of him, and he was only saved by the loyal
exertions of his staff officers, several of whom
lost their lives in defence Of him.
The Emperor is said to have reached place
about SIXTY miles from Cape Haytien with but
1000 men. The Southern troops who desert
ed him so faithlessly to the number of 900,
succeeded in reaching Las Cahobas. The
Emperor sent orders for them to JON him, but
they refused TO do So Where the rest of the
grand army had gone was not known at Port
au Prince.
The Emperor's pecuniary loss must have
been very great. He had with him over
5000, 900 in money, which was taken, and
with it most of the arms, ammunition, and
provisions of his troops, for most of them
threw away their arms when they took to their
hpels

How TO WASH FLANNEL.-Some women
possess quite knack in washing flannel so as
to prevent its fulling. 1t is not the soapsuds
nor rinsing waters that thick up flannel in
washing, but the rubbing of it. Cloth is full
ed by being "pounced and jounced" in the
stocks of the fulling mill with soapsuds. The
action of rubbing flannel on wash board is
just the same as that of the fulling mill. Elan
mel, therefore, should always be washed
in strong hot soapsuds, which will remove
the dirt and grease by squeezing better than
hard rubbing will IN weak soapsuds. 1t
should also be rinsed out of the soap in very
warm water, and never in cold, as the fbres
of the wool do not shrink up as much in warm
as in cold after after coming out of warm soap
suds. Great care should be taken to rinse
the soap completely out of the flannel The
advice will apply to the washing of blankets
the same as 1t does of flannel. Scientific
american.
