2sth Of October. The republic was greatly excited
and fresh revolutionary disturbances were hourly
dreaded. A general military enrolment IN Port
au-Prince had brought trade to 4 perfect stand,
and most Of the stores were closed. New coffee
had been broughtin, but It arrived slowly and was
lower in price. Notwithstanding Tie execution Of

true and expressed much sympathy for his recent

last named place and some lives had been lost by
the overfowing Of the rivers.
