Kingston. Jamaica, correspondent says
that the headway which the revolution
lists are making in Hayti. has been deem
ed by President Geffrard sufficiently
alarming to induce him to make prepa
rations for escape from his country A
mail steamer has therefore been charter
| ed at Kingston to proceed TO Port Arl
Prince. and there remain till the time AZ
rives for him to seek safety in fight or
| till the danger of such an event has

Owing to the severe drought of the
present summer on the Island Of Jamaica
aud the heavy taxes ana other causes,
the negro laborers there have been re-
duced to the most abject poverty and
great suffering, and thousands of them
blame the Governor and his officers as
the cause of their afflictions, and so strong
and bitter is their feeling against the
local government that an outbreak on
their part is feared in the western part of
the Island, in consequence of which two
gunboats have been dispatched TO that
locality
The Herald's Santiago correspondent
says notwithstanding the havoc and de-
struction of the Spaniards during their
invasion of San Domingo. crops are now
coming forward which promise ample
subsistence for the inhabitants, and the
sacrifices which the war has compelled
the people to endure have made them
more united aud determined to MAINTAIN
their independence. This latter state
mcnt is hardly borne ont by reports
which we have already published of
threatened hOstilities between the two
native chiefs. Generals Pimental and Ca.

1t is said that the Spaniards stole aud
destroyed large quantities of fine woods,
principally the property Of American
merchants, which had been stored at diff
ferenU places. and now Gen. Gandara, the
Spanish commander, having withdrawn
his troops from the interier, has block
AIDED the principal ports Of the republic,
because the Dominican Government will
not submit to his naughty and unreason-
able demands in the peace treaty, thus
preventing the expectation of large
stocks of tobacco belonging TO Ameri-
cans as we'll as Europeans.
To offset this blockade the Domini-
clans have determined toicpmmission pri-
vateers to prey on SpaAish coIhmerce,
and an agent, authorized - iaey1o bttersl

Letter from the Capital 81 She G5reaf
Easteruf -,
NEW YORK, Sept. l.--xThe Post pub
fishes letter from Captain Anderson, of
the Great Eastern, concerning the failure
to lay the cable He says he was at first
a doubter, but seeing the means adopted
he became hopeful; then with the actual
experience he has become sanguine. He
briefly details his experience, which has
already been stated, and earnestly urges
another trial, first in laying new cable
with additional machinery, and then
picking up the old one. He suggests
that the new cable be laid next May, be-
cause the Great Eastern and the neces-
sary machinery cannot be got ready un-
der not less than ten months, as tele-
graphed His letter shows that he is
very sanguine as to the ultimate success
ofths enterprise, and says Mr. Field and
all on board share his hopefulness.
