LATER FROM HAYTI-ADDRESS OF VICTOR
HUGO TO THE PEOPLE OF HAYTI.
By the arrival of the brig j. Beurmann, from
Fort au Prince. are placed in possession of our
Hayti files to February 10Th.
Victor Hugo has addressed to the people of Hayti
lettor of friendship and admiration. 1t is osten
siby response to letter addressed to Nj. Hugo
by three citizens of Hayti, now in Paris.
"HAUTEvILLE HOUSE, ISLE OF GUERNSEY,
December %, 49,
"Citizens of the Republic: thank you for the
eloquent terms in which you have addressed me.
Your words reach my heart.
ga white and black Republic are sisters, the
same a white and black man are brothers,
There is only one humanity, because there is only
one God.
''The French Republic had negroes among the
representatives of its people; and that is the
thing that made it above all glorious.
81 have been sadly deceived in that fraternity of
races, the Southern States of the American Union.
In killing Brown they have committed crime
which will take place among the calamties OF his
tory. The rupture of the Union will fatally follow
the assassination of Brown.
"What an event! What disaster
81 afflicted at heart in thinking of this crime
and this fault.
GAS to John Brown, he an apostle and
hero. The gibbet has only increased his glory and
made him martyr.
"Black and white, all brothers, all equal, let us
rally more and more around that principle of all
principles-Liberty.
"Your friend, VIcroR HUGO.
~ love your Republic. Let your people know
it"
The John Brown excitement has not yet subsidized
in Hayti. In Cape Haytien, Cages, Jacme, and
Gonaives, well as at Port Prince, religious
services in commemoration of John Brown have
been held with all possible pomp and solemnity,
and all the island subscriptions in behalf of
the widow of John Brown have been started.
A resolution in the School Board of Cleveland,
Ohio, to separate white and black pupils, has been
negatived by vote of six to four.
The price Of gas in Boston is to be reduced 10
ner Cent to all CONSUMERS

once had with Mexico, would be diverted from
England, who has succeeded by her liberal policy
in securing almost monopoly of it, and restored
to its natural channel If the moderate subsidy
required, as preliminary to putting the line into
operation, were granted by Congress, the extern
sion which would thus be given to Southern COM
merce would speedily impress upon those who
were benefited by it the necessity of adopting
means for establishing that direct trade with
Europe which they now hesitate to undertake.

the cav and gallant Chevalier WikoH waited upon
PRYOR and proposed sham duel between him and Mr.
James G. Bennett IT, and that Pryor Indignantly re-
;ected the proposition, kicked Wiko out of his apart
mspts. and the next day had him expelled from the
hall of tie House of Representatives, into
which be had been introduced by some
other member. According to this story, miKon
waited on Pryor quite early in the morning and iouhd
