The DeCilnicau Republic.
Few ot -.nr readers are aware that a new repub
lic has bren formed under this name in the Island
of St Domingo. Yet each is the fact Within
two years past K revolution has been made and suc
cessfully maintained against the negro government
of Uayti. Our purpose is to give some new of this
new Republic slid ilk resources.
The Island of St Domingo is tho most flourish
ing and fertile of tbo West India lelands. The for
merly French portion is now the liayticn Republic,
as it is railed. From this nation are exported cof
fee, cotton, mahogany, dye-wood, die. The former
ly Spanish portion of the It land, or now the Domi
nican Republic, exports mahogany, dye-wood, lig-
numvitae, cocoa, honey, hides, gum guicum and to
bacco, oqaal to the best Havana in quality. Sugar
is also raised. It unqoesticnabiy contains mineral
wealth, as gold ar.d copper mines have been discov
ered.
Tiie climate of the Island is that of the tropics,
warm uml damp. The heatspiowrver, are temper
ed by the sea breeze, which rets in about 10 o’clock,
A. M., and lasts until night, when it is followed by
the land breeze. The soil of the Island is exceed
ingly fertile.
The east end of the Island of St. Domingo, for
merly known as the Spanish Possessions, now form
the Dominican Republic. It extent is 33,000 square
leagues, of 25 to a degree. This republic has hern
formed by tho white portion of the island rising in
rebellion against the black government ot Hayti.—
For twenqr years and upwards the whites have sub
mitted to a most humiliating oppression. In Febru
ary, 1844, they successfully made a stand against
the black government, and have since gallantly and
efficiently maintained their independence. They
sent commissioners to this country during the ad
ministration of Mr. Calhoun iu the State Depart
ment, for tho purpose of having the government of
the United States take measures to acknowledge the
indcpcr.dcnc of the Republic. Mr. Calbonn at once
favored tho idea, and despatched Mr Hogan of this
State, to investigate the resources of the country.—
Mr. Hogan having faithfully executed bis important
trust, has returned and given, we hear, a most satis
factory account of the rising commonwealth.

“ Will Tticr.r. be War ?” is tile title of a pam
phlet published in this city. Tiie author, who is a
well known and experienced merchant, long a resi
dent of tills city, Likes tiie tyle of “An Adopted
Citizen.” His speculations are those of a well in
formed, and sensible man, and will well repay tho
perusal of all who interest themselves on the Ore
gon question. ,
Tho writer in considering tiie consequences of a
war between the United States and Grcat Britain,
draws a comparison between-the condition of Eng
land now and that in which she was when alio made
head against tlio arms of Napoleon. Of her condi
tion at that time, he says:
“From tho year I7J9 to 1815, at the time when
tiie British Aristocracy were waging war against
revolutionary France and against the French Em
peror, the whole of English funds and capital was
invested at homb, chiefly in manufactories; the
monopoly of manufacturing for all Europe was then
the principal clement of toe power of England;
there was not any other manufacturing nation on
the continent, and tiie people thereof could not do
without British manufactures; and although Napo
leon tried his might to exclude them, tliey were in
such request that they found their way to tho conti
nent, partly through smuggling, pertly through tiic
secret connirance of the authorities on the seaboard,
and Napoleon himsolf was coustriaed, through ab
solute necessity, to adopt too system of granting
licenses, and whenever tiie aggregate exportation of
British goods was less, tho profits were larger, Eng
land through these means was able to straggle un
til the time that tlio blunders of Napoleon enabled
her, in 1813 and 1814, to literally overstock the
whole continent with her goods, and to realize
thereby enormous profits.”
This state of tilings no longer exists; the nations
of the continent have become in n considerable do-
prcc manufacturing nations, England has become a
money lending iml.*n; and by tiic help of financial
relations'established in tills way, and special treaties
of commerce, has obtained tlio trado of various
countries of tiie New World, from Mexico to Brazil,
with the productions of whjcli she supplies various
countries of Europe Tlio effects of u war u|wh
these nuw relations of Great Britain, according to
tho author would bo these: .. i 1
Tlio revenue, interests, dividends, tribute, that
she now collects from all parts of toe world, would
fall short more or less—her maritime commerce
would lx* partly ruined by privateers—the immense
market of toe United States for the purchase of toe
raw materials, and for tiic outlet of lior fabrics,
would bo closed against her—tier manufactures
could no longer stand a competition with those of
France, of Germany, of Switzerland, and of those
of the continent in general.”
Oi tiie probability of a war, the pamphlet says:
“1st. That tbo British aristocracy will take good
care not to engage in a war with tiic United States
on too subject of Oregon, unless they have positive
assurances that it would lead, at once, to a disrup
tion of the confederacy.
“ 2nd. That the giving the year’s notice, and tiie
