BosroN, Feb. l4.-Captain Hopkins, of the
bark Mary Baker from Miragoane, Hayti, re-
ports that on Jan. 18th, off st. Nicholas Mole,
northwest end of Hayt he saw an American
man-ofwar When first seen she was under
steam alone, but she Immediately made sail and
steered for the east end Of Cuba, under both
steam and sail. The steamer WAS very long
and ship rugged The weather was fine at the
time From the description of the steamer she
might have been the Tennessee, but as her
course would have been in the opposite diree-
ton, it is concluded the vessel was some other
man-ofwar cruising in these waters.

the law positively requires; the property hold
ers are heavily taxed, and it is necessary that
those who avail themselves of the benefit of the
schools should pay their part promptly. lfal
the taxes are promptly paid it is thought that
there will be funds to open more Schools so as
to accommodate those who are now waiting for
