as well as those of my wife- and
my oHildren'i fpr hav.ing'gtven
:•• ,ry i to ,'vcrv one of those un-
•ia:l repaired thither to
avoid prescription and death ? Have they
not beeij insolently massacred under my
¦windows ? These men have been known by
utility to the country, and those re-
rj services which they have rendered to
lytians in the most unhappy times.
A!! the world knows tha, in the two di-
visions of the South ind the second of the
the ra^en of colorhad.threatened the
eurjperor to withdraw from his authority if
even the women and children of the whites
were not e'xtej minated.
Has it not been seen, in the South, that
they ha/e exclaimed against the emperor
and the minister oi Financis, in order to
procure titles to the property which they had
seized; saying, That they had cut the throats
of their superiors) and that they hada right to
remain -masters of thir goods. The whole
universe knows the perversity and sanguina-
ry disposition of these violent men, who
have exercised indifferently, and in turn,
upon the whites sad blacks, their barbarous
fury whenever their revoking policy has con-
vinced them of the necessity of so do-
iri:'.
Have they not for a long time sought
the destruction of foreign traders ? No one
is ignorant that Domaicq caused to be pub-
lished wish this design a memoir at St.
Marc, against the Americans.
Is it not this same Domaicq, seconded by
Langlade, who, during the sojournment of
the emperor in the South, had persuaded
the merchant Broc.ard and the physician
Dauranson, established at'St. Marc, that
Dessalines would cause them to be put (o
death ; that the only means to avoid des-
truction was to fly ; and who, confiding
to him their secret, he caused to be arrest-
ed at the mornent of their flight, had them
assassinated, and seized on their fortunes.
Francisco Stella and Joanis Jordanis, Ita-
lians, who had been established at Aux
Cayes, is it not upon the denunciation of
Charles Vire, the father, that they ha*e
been prosecuted as agents of the English
and French, protected by gen. Gefrard ?
Has not this conduct been repeated until
you cannot find a white merchant among
us I
The cause of the civil war with Rigaud,
was it nut because gen. Toussaint had been
opposed to the massacre of the whites at Jc-
remje, whilst Rigaud was desir.ms that they
should be destroyed after the evacuation of
that quarter by the English '? And in the
£outh have they not reproached general
Toussaint with the potection which he had
given to the whites, accusing him of favor-
ing the emigrants.
Confiding in these preyerse men and be-
lieving them still succeptable of remorse,
I had convoked tl« assembly of Hayti at Port
au-Prince ; 1 wish to give a proof to our fel-
.; that I have no desire to influ-
ence their will ; but these rebels have found
in my loyalty itself the means of coining
"better at their objsct, coercing by force and
art, the votes of that assembly ; they envi-
roned with bayonets and terrified those de-
puties, whom their insedious caresses could
not gain.
They had, by a bad faith of which they
alone are capable, triblcd the number of
deputies from ihe two divisions of the south
and of the second of the west, and obtain-
ed by that means a majority of numbers,
independent of the terror inspired by their
armed force.
The first division of the south contains
^he parishes of Aquin, Saint Louis, Cavail-
lon, Cayes, Turbec, Port Salut, Couteaux,
and. Tiburon.
The second division includes l'Anse-a-
"Veau, Petit Trou des Baradaires, Corail,
Jcrernie, Abrecots, Dame Marie, 1' Anse
d'Ainhanlt, and St. Michael de Miragoane.
The second divisionof thewestis compos-
cdof the Croix-des-Bouquets, Port-au-Prince,
Leogane, of Grand Goave, Petit Goave,
Jackmel, Bay net, and Manigot.
These, which make in all 24 parishes
for these three divisions ought to be the to-
tal number of deputies nominated, for this
was the mode of election followed in the
two divisions of the North and the first of
the west. Far from having observed this
equitable regulation, they have tribled the
•number of deputies and have employed,
besides all that intrigue could suggest, to cir-
cumvent the deputies cf the North, and se-
cure their su'rrapes.
It is therefore clearly proved, that these
last have not only been intimidated by the
force of arms, but have also been influenc-
t'd by the number of illegal deputies fiom
the two divisions of the South and the se-
cond of the West.
It it be hoped to make them sign, against
the admonitions of theft conscience, these
acts contrary to the commands of their con-
stituents, is it imagined that their constitu-
ents, will consent to submit to it 1 No ;
never ! after combatting sixteen years for
,their liberty, and for that independence
which they this day possess, they will not
sacrifice ,tho.-e precious treasures to become
the subjects of Petion and his band of up-
starts. These unworthy men have compel-
led me to draw the sword from its scabbard
to reduce them to reason. I have marched
against Petion; I have cut his army in pieces;
a sentiment of pity arrested me at the gates of
Port-au-Prince, which I was about to enter,
when I reflected on the evils to which that
rebel city had l.-en already devoted ; that
city, where has been shed the blood of so
many true friends of liberty ; and where,
particularly, had-been concerted the niasa-
crp of (he hundred Swiss. I iccdled
v.-ith horror at the sight of the Haytian
JiTood with winch if had. beeri stained.—
Notwiihst.iuding the cr.iir.es without ;u»a-'
ber, with which these rebels have inundated
0 ir country, I have been willing to leave
them for a Kiomeut to repentance, of which
they may profit whilst they have yet time!
All their efforts shall not enable them'to
escape from the just chastisement which I
intend. I have the sword in hand, and
will preserve the freedom of our country,
in spile of Petion and his adherents; I will
re-establish tranquility and the power of
the law, and I will not take to myjelf a
moment's repose until I have seen happiness
established in the midst of our fellow-citi-
zens.

Dessalines, the 14th of January, 1807, the
fourth year of independence.
