Latest from Hay TIA Spec1men OF
Negro Supremacy.

A special telegram in yesterdays Herald
reports, as the latest news from Hayti, that
general Leon Monies was killed by the
iailer put over him by President Salnave.
He was first poisoned. and then despatched
by blow on the head from a bar. A
brother of Monies. confined in the same
dungeon with the General at Cape Haytien,
was compelled to passively witness the
scene of horror" Many families have fled
to Jamaica, terrified at the reign of ar
barism in Hayti. The completely of Presi-
dent Salnave in the murder of Monies ap-
pears to be taken for granted. Salnave was
condemned by contumacy little more than
three years ago to the penalty of death ''for
rebellion and assassination" and 1t is thus
that the assassin of General Phillipeau
low takes bis trevenge, while strutting his
'wn brief hour of authority. His prede-
.essor, Geffrard, was too highly cultivated,
90 good. too mild and too nearly white to
suit the tastes of the violent party in Hayti.
\ full blooded, coal black negro, Salnave
seems to have the ferocious instincts of his
race in its savage state. He represents the
party of barbarism-the same party which
the Emperor Soulouque represented when.
after four presidences of one year
each, the latter succeeded to the supreme
power and establish black mans govern
ment; unfortunately" says even the
Radio r dpath, ''he represented the bar
oarisn rat 'er than the good qualities OF
the ne, lo.' Redpath has a>pired to write
the his ory of Hayti. He speaks of 1.-THE
brief anu bloody reign of the Emperor
Dessalines; he tells how the founder OF
Haytien nationality, who had become &" a
very cruel and remorseless despot," tell dead
beneath the daggers of band of assassins,
one of them the grandfather of ex- Presi-
dent Geffrard and he gives this portrait OF
General Joseph: "a pure black, man of
great brutal force, of barbarous energy,
with all his instincts antagonistic to liberal
ideas and high civilization" Let Red
path now add Salnave to his list of mon
sters lifted to the surface of the seething
cauldron OF Haytien revolution. King
Theodore of Abyssinia has been more mer-
ciful to his British captives, who, according
to news received in London ON the 14th
instant, are, happily, "alive and well.'-
And the King OF Dahomey himself must
be Incapable of committing a more brutal
murder than this of Monies, helpless
prisoner, is described to have been. What
a shocking specimen it is of negro suprem-
acy IN. Y. Herald.

If, as the Radicals say, the Democracy
is the whisky party, the Republicans are
imbibing the spirit freely. The following
from the Ne'ebmgport (Mass.) Herald tells
tale of conversion more miraculous than
that which Negro Suffrage caused in Ohio.
New Bedford is one of the Radical strong
holds:
New Bedford, on Monday, elected An
drew G.. Pierce Mayor, by a majority of
300 in a vote OF 3 900, the largest ever cast
in that city. He was license candidate. In

and it is announced that commission of
staff officers is hard at work on scheme
for increasing the efficiency of the army,
and another commission has been charged
with the duty of selecting the sites of new

citing that the President, in his annual
message, had seen fit, in utter disregard of
the popular will as expressed in the elec-
ton of members of the Fortieth Congress,
to recommend the repeal of the reconstruct
ton laws, the effect of which would be to
remit the government of the late rebel
lious States to rebel hands, and abandon
the loyal element thereof to the will of
