New YORK, Sept 16.-Advices from ia

report that the long protracted drought,
which had caused wide spread distress
on the Island. was over and favorable
showers had fallen.
Gen. Famorth, refugee from Hayti,
residing at Kingston, jamaica, having
been threatened with expulsion from the
Island for alleged completely in the Hay
tiar rebellion, had written to the Cover
nor of jamaica, denying that he was at
all mixed up in any recent scheme against
his country.
There does not appear to have been
any truth in tie report received by Il
previous arrival, that an insurrection was
about to break out in the western por-
ton of Jamaica.
The rebellion in Hayti is still unsuh-
dued. A letter from Port An Prince. of
the 29th of August. published in a Ja-
maica paper, says that President Gci.
frard, as already mentioned, left Port An
Prince on the 25th for the seat of war.
taking with him sixteen hundred men.
The insurgents had been repulsed in all
of their advances, and the recaptnrc
from them of the town of Cape Haytien
was daily expected. 1t was rumorcd
that fort st. Michael had already been
captrr,d hy the National troops. with 81

New YORK, Sept. l6.-The Herald,
Richmond correspondent furnishes an
interesting insight into the motives aad
feelings which governed the directors
of the Danville Railroad Company, of
Virginia, during the recent meeting.
lasting some days, in the election of a
President. The rebel Gen Joseph John
sor was the almost unanimous choice of
the board, and those active in his nomi-
nation were watched with great interest
throughout considerable portion of the
South, by those lately engaged in the re-
bellion, as the correspondent states that
if he had been allowed to bold the posi-.
ton it would have been regarded as a
concession in favor of late prominent
rebels, which would encourage the lesser
lights and the masses of the fraternity
to rally for the purpose of regaining theil
lost governmental power. 1t is said
that Northern capital was enlisted in hi:
favor, but, as we have heretofore an
nounced, the directors being suspicion.
that the authorities at Washington
would not allow johnson to perform tht
duties Of the Office, they thought it bes
not to run the risk, and so chose Mr.. A
D. Buford. a member of the Virgins
Legislature.
