\ letter from Cadi/ of the 23d January
««-¦ .. an order has just been received from
[uarantine of vessels
from the Irbrthern states of America to fif-
teen days, and those from the southern
states to twenty days.
Capt. Sp.encer, of" ship Grace, arrived here,
informs, that'orders from England were re-
ceived at peSnerara, prohibiting without re-
serve, the landing of any goods in American
bottoms, excepting Fish, floor, and Lumber,
and also prohibiting; absolutely the exporta-
tion of susai' and cofi'-e. Repeated remon-
stances were rnatle against this order by the
planters and merchants, and every effort
made to obtain permits to ship sugar and
coffee, but rtfased on the ground mat tiie
governor had no right, without permission
from home. Markets were glutted with A-
merican produce."

ADDRESS
OF
HENRY CHRISTOPHE,
President and Generalissimo of the land and
sen forces of the Mate of Ilayti, to the army
and people.
Light has iust burst cat amidst us, and
thanks to a beneficent constitution, the plots
and conspiracies of which you were going
to be the victims, have miscarried. At last
a wise collection of laws suitable to our
manners, climate, usages, has, if I may be
allowed the expression, come out of ike
chaos, to fix once more .the destinies of'
Hayti.
In vain had my solicitude endeavored for
a'long time to offer von this precious gift ;
in vain had I convoked the commons to give
you a constitution : my cafes,' far from be-
in :>; crowned with the wished-for success,
bad been but an .additional food to factions,
to. try to mislead public opinion, and frame
a constitution calculated for their interests
.and those of their proselytes, at the expence
of the liberty of the people, and of sound
reason.
All of you have been witnesses, O rr.y
countrymen, of the purity of my designs
¦and the sincerity of my intentions ; but have
nplthe villai I to a wicked use this
same sincerity, by fomenting rebellion, and
kindling a civil war. I was not the one
that could be intimidated by their ma
tions, or misled a single moment oh. the
welfare of our country. I have never ceased
day or night to meditate upon the safety of
the country. What have I left undone to
obtain this end ? What have I not done to
baftle the secret plots and conspiracies of
factions :
I have been always amidst you, and you
may certify if ever ambition has influenced
my conduct, of,-sullied my honor. Placed
this day by the wishes of my countrymen
and brediren-of arms on the summit of
power, I have yielded to (heir desires, and
accepted of that heavy'and honorable bur-
then, because they wished to trust it into
my hands, and that I might once more
serve our country. Happy will I be, if my
efforts be crowned with success, and enable
me to secure the happiness of my country-
men !
But to obtain that end, my efforts alone
arc not sufficient .; the observance of the
lavs and of this constitution is also neces-
sary. Your rights are strictly preserved,
and every citizen will find therein securities
for bis person, property, and that __of his
family.
The fatal consequences of the wars we
have sukairiea, and still more the bad ex-
ample of the French, had thrown religion
¦mi;) a forlorn situation ; morals were des-
pised, and a profligate youth gave way,
(withont remorse, to all the licentiousness
of their age ; public education was disgrac-
ee', and iejft io mercenary teachers. It has
been necessary to restore religion to its dig-
nity, to fr'ive support to morals, bring it into
repute, inculcate in the minds of young peo-
ple, the sacred principles of good man
•and of religion, and convince the people
t that, without religion and morals, np human
society can exist.
Tribunals are also going to insure your
interests i euc.ity and justice will hereafter
p eside over the dec'iiotis uicbreel by its
ministers. It is, above all, by probity and
uprightness, that it is reserved to the peo-
ple ot Ilayti to make themselves be known.
Essentially a trading people by their situa-
tion and the nature of their commolt.es,
their equity as well as the objects of their
commerce must attract to their shares the
merchants of all. nations of the earth.
As commerce is for us the source of all
kinds of riches, it is therefore essential to
grant to foreigfn merchants who come to seek
their fortune in our ports, the same protec-
tion whicit is enjoyed by our own country,
men, and offer them that hospitality which
those necessary men merit to receive.
To.maintain that commerce, and-give it
a great activity, the perseverance and efforts
of agriculture ought to increase. Placed
under the finest climate of the earth, pro-
fusely favored with tiie most precious gifts
of nature, the cultivators have not to strug-
gle against the severe weather of frozen cli-
mates, nor to inure themselves to the rigors
and ine'emency of seasons. An easy work
enriches them, without any privations, puts
them upon the level of manufacturing nati-
ons. Therefore hasten, industrious cultiva-
tors, to fill your stores with all the produce
of our fruitfuly scVl ; spread out to the eyes of
the European merchants, all that can tempt
their covetousness, and you will see your
commerce flourishing beyond yimr hopes.
After having given support to religion,
refined morals, re-established good manners
and encouraged agriculture and. commerce,
great works will remain yet to be done.—
We ought not to neglect the exercise of
arms. The enemy watches our motions and
observes our steps. The affection of our
friends is still without .my wawarrtfy ! Trea-
ties ought to bind the latter, and our armies
be ready to fight the former.
Abandoned to ourselves we have in the
midst of ourselves our own resources ; they
are among yon, soldiers, who are ready to
shed generously your blood, rather than yield
to a proud enemy your liberty, the reward
of your courage ! they are amidst you, in-
habitants and industrious cultivators, from
whom the state expects its riches. "Your
union, yout Mibmisson to laws ought to be
the strongest bond of your independence,
The policy of foreign governments has
not yet been openly manifested towards us.
Whatever it be, without daring them, !«*
us put ourselves in a situation to have no-
thing to dread from such as would bear us
any hostile intention. Let those who will
be disposed to keep political relations, or
enjoy the advantage- of our commerce find
an equitable tseciprortitj'. Let us offer to
other., nothing but death and battles.
Whilst we meditate upon those ideas, let
us never forget that amis alone are the war-
rantry of a free people. If culture requires
a part of our countrymen, we ought to con-
sider that we are all - idlers, and that war-
like nations only have been able to preserve
their liberty. Let ua call to our remembrance,
that a handful of Greeks devoted to their
country, confounded the rage of a million
of barbarians who came to wrets from them
tin ir h'ocrty !
L"t us swear to imitate their example, to
observe and cruise our holy constitution to
be observed, ami to perish rather than to
suffer that any violation should be .made
upon it.

Extract of a letter from Havana, dated
Feb. 25.
" An additional duty has been laid on
in ports of 1 1-2 per cent, and the same 011
export, with aa augmentation in the valua-
tion on sugars, as some say, of two reals
the artoba, and also of two reals addition
to the militia duty. It will now stand thus,
34 per cent, on imports, and 10 1-2 per cent,
on exports. This arrangement takes effect
this day, and on all vessels not entered at
the custom house, and those which were
not cleared out previous to this morning.
The order only arrived from Spain yester-
day, but it is dated 2 years ago, and the
present copy is the only one that has reach-
ed here."

PROCLAMATION BY
The Chief of the government of Hayti.
The numerous abuses which have taken
place in the different branches ol the govern-
ment, particularly in the custom-house de-
partment, have obliged me to take rigorous
measures to repress them. The notices
which I have given to these hardened and
faithless officers, have not brought them to
their duty ; and .my kindness towards for-
eigners, who came to trade in pur ports, has
only served as an incentive to their fraud.
It is therefore necessary to adopt severe
measures, in order to remedy these abuses,
which have deprived government of its re-
sources.
Consequently, to put a stop to such dilapi-
dations, I do order as follows :
1. Every Haytian or foreigner, convicted
of having fraudulently endeayored to land or
take on board any goods, with a view to
avoid j, payment of duties, shall be con-
demned to be hung, and his effects confis-
cated to the use of the state.
2. Every officer, convicted of having
lent a hand to such fraud, shall be con-
demned to be hung, and his effects confis-
cated to the use of the government.
