EMIGRATION or FREE BLACKS TO
HAYII.
From The n. o. Data, June q.

y
Large parties OF free persons Of color have lately at
iuter, as erngraied to Pot Prince, in Hayt for
the purpose OF there settling. They carry out with
them farming implements, goods, good quantity Of
the "rbino' and all the necessary articles to consti
tuie q settlement. II seems that the GOyemment Of
Hat holds forth great inducements to persons OF color
giving them tract Of land to settle on and also pay
ing their passage thther, which two things are, per-
baps, the main cause Of this preciptate rush for Hsyt
though bot altogether he sole cause a. the stringent
laws made short time since by the Legislature OF
Louisiana In regard 10 free persons Of color remaining
in the State, may be, with jusness assigned as par
tal motive for the emigration OF these persons we
allude to- The first party Of these emigrants number
ing 49, sailed from this place in May last 10 the
brig West Inoan chartered by Messrs, Phillips s.
Weeks, ship agents Of this city, for the occasion The
second division left here yesterday in the schooner A.
&. Brewer, likewise chartered by Messrs Philips q
Weeks. The party amounted 10 aoont i91 persons.
All that had families took them along, leaving nothing
behind. We informed by reliable authority
Messrs 7. & What this last party will be succeeded
by another in the of snosr month. We opine,
that if these emigr ants continue TO increase al this
rate, Hsyti will be shortly overrun with them, and
will have no cause to complain OF iLsofiicieney OF
population II is said that they 60 with the determn
alton of working hard and multiplying thr store at all
hazards; they will whether they sink or SWIM 1--we
or die give their heart and hand to the country We
understand that Messrs. L. 81 w. are, IN manner,
sgents for the Haytian Goverument-thst Is, they
transact business here for the party that - especial
agent Of the Hsy'ian Government. Messrs. Phillips
* Weeks are quite deserving Of the truA placed in
ihem as they are both estimsble and well qualified
buipee. men.
The Intelligence Of the departure Of these free per-
sons Of color will perhaps be quite gratifying 10 the
slaves as they the slaves well known 70 hsrbor,
and indeed evirce q deadly hstred toward that par
tcuar 'sect.' They manifested their dislke here
some few years ago when rebellion was feared and
mOmeptary anticipated by our citizens. 1, was then

they bore these free coored persors they THE slaves
ssd that the free persons would be the rst on whom
they woud level their weapons II fight should take
place Everything considered the emigration Of these
persons will be a. beneficial to US ss TO Hayt for now
we viii have ese wrsnglipg and Disagreement between
our slaves and free eolored persons. We hail their
departure with delight, their places will be filed
by imported or Otherwise procured slaves. Let
US by sn means encourage Slavery; take the
poor creatures from their miserable home where they
roam about in state Of nudity piueking and esug al
sorts Of leaves, herbs, &c. Bringing them here, We

And then. a. generous people, We willing TO re-
ceiye a. compensation for al this ths pstry pttsnce
Of their labor We vouch for t. slsves here 6sd more
comfortable accommodations than win these free per.
sons find in Hsyt however liberal the Government
may BE- But doott infer aou whstws have Just ssid,
