Heavy Battle in Hayti.

The latest news and rumors concerning TO
war in Hayti came by the steamer Caroline
Miller, Capt. Frederick Miller, which ar
rived at New York, March II, having left
Cape Haytien on March s. The captain
says that battle had taken place at Lasce-
line, village about three days march from
Cape Haytien, between the forces of Legi-
time and Hyppolite. The date of the battle
is believed to be Feb. 49, There were 700
killei and Hyppolite, who was in command
claimed the victory. 1t was stated today
by other Ulcers of the steamer that IL pris-
oners were brought in two days before the
vessel sailel and were shot As measure
of retaliation for the shooting of prisoners
taken by Legitime it had been ordered
by Hyppolite that all prisoners taken in bat
tie hereafter should be shot. 1t was rumored
that Legitime had landed 800 men at Go
naives, and that all Ct them had been killed
in an attack upon the batteries there This,
however, lacked confirmation. A son of
Hyppolite, who had been wounded in the
leg, had had an operation performed with
what result is not stated The United States
corvette Galena was at Cape Haytien when
the steamer left that port. The George w.

well that it will be of great, value to
the city. Chairman Parker says, and
truly, that every American should
visit the capital of his cOuutry-which we
may say is tie most beautiful city in the
United S.ates-and this is the particular
time when Templsrs will most appreciate
such q visit. There are 900 Templars in
