MISCELLANEOUS NEWS.
We have very interesting news from Hayti
dated at Aux Cages on the 18th of May. Our cor
respondent in that city details the leading Incl
dents connected with the inception, organization
and futile explosion of the late revolutionary
movement undertaken against President Gefrard
In the South. The affair was very formidable at
one moment, in view of the great wealth and po-
pularity of some of its leaders, as we'll as the
plausible indictment against the Executive, which
they circulated among their adherents and sym
pathizers. Geffrard was accused of enriching
himself enormously at the expense of the treasu-
ry; of favoring the mulattoes (the .colored
folk of HaytD to the exclusion of the blacks,
and of taxing foreign merchants very heavily, in
order to benefit the Hayten traders, who are
mostly colored people, or muiattoes. The agita-
ton produced by the publication of these infam-
matory charges was heightened by the distribution
of an able and ingenious pamphlet, to the same
effect, written by NJ. Solomon Jr., native exile,
now resident in France, SO that the revolutionists
seemed at one time to have it all their own way.
They were emboldened by the apparent inactivity
of Geffrard. His clemency on former occasions
was mistaken for timidity. He encouraged the
idea that he was tinlid by actually sending his
family to France and thus leading the conspirators
to believe that he was preparing to fly the coun-
try. When the proper moment arrived, how
ever, he struck his blow effectually, by ordering
the arrest of the leading traitors in Aux Cages.
They fed to the plains and mountains, but being
pursued by troops marched from Port au Prince
about sixty of them have been made prisoners.
1t is supposed that they will be condemned to
death, but, as Geffrard is not cruel that some of
them will be ultimately banished and the remain
der pardoned. The Saloman party still threaten.
ed to burn down the town of Aux Cages.
The remains Of Colonel Bailey, United States
Army, were inferred at Elizabeth N. j., yester-
terday. The ceremonies at the church were very
impressive, the Rev. Mr.. Kempshall delivering an
eloquent address. The edifce was crowded to
suffocation. A procession more than q mile in
length followed the body to the cemetery.

evening, . preamble and resolution calling upon

of she proposition to give Thurlow Weed . CON-
plmentary reception, Alderman Boole moved .

vote was reconsidered, and Mr.. Boole offered .
resolution rendering the thanks Of the Board Of
Aldermen to the Archbishop for his services to the
country while abroad, which was adopted. A

senting to the city rebel flag captured at Pensa-
