X had nothing to do with the parties. Mr. Harvard. deliveied tno one of the fifty dol lar bills on the Georgia Railroad * Banking Co^at August ta, that Imight test its genuineness at the counter of the Bank- He made the proposition to settle the matter, and after it was settled, lie voluntarily remarked., to Mr* Covey, that he thought he was a scoundrel, . and may have treated him harshly, but he now considered that lie acted tho gentleman. If Mr. Harvard, in his communication, intended to cast a reflection on me,'I know of nothing thac will .equal his Ignorance of the duty, of a “State’s Attorney,” save the falsity of the imputation.he has thought proper to in corporate in his article Very respectfully, yourob’t. sr’t.

The principal features ore, a free transit across tbe idthmus, with equal right of enjoysnent in both countries of such eommnhioatron fis may be established; a free pert at.each terminus, and a right in the .United States, to protect, by military foroe', all^ .persons and prop erty passing over tbe different routes, in the event aPfailara ftf Nicaragua to sffdrd proteofiqn.

The New York Commerical says: From the accounts before us it appears that tho revo lution leader, and now President* of tbo Haytien Repub lic, entered Port-au-Prince, the capital of Hayti, on tho afternoon of January 15, without any opposition; his forces surrounded the Emperor’s bouse, which contained himself, femily and staff, whom Geffrard made prisoners; but immediately and magnanimously transferred to tho protection either French legation, lest- they should softer from tbe violences of the' revolntionists. The capital was illuminated that evening in honor orthe event, and Gen. Geffrard addressed tho people from thp Exchange. The revolution has been accomplished in about throe, weeks; and was commenced under apparently most inaus picious circumstances, Gen. Geffrard being at first joined only by his son and t\ro others, one. of whom was not a Haytien but a Frenchman. Wc taavo no authentic evi dence that even one life has been lost In conflict, the re volutionary general seeming to have relied mninly upon the Emperors unpopularity and. the general; dissatisiac- I tion for success in his movement; and in that he has not been disappointed. Intelligence of the formal installa tion of the President .has not yet reached ns, bat it will .follow as & matter of course. ■ Let us hope that this time the, Haytiens. will adhere to a republican form of govern ment. . General Geffrard had been solemnly proclaimed Presi dent of.the Republic of. Hay ti, and General Solouque condemned to be judged before the High Court of Jus tice, onseveralaccusations, as follows: . The departmental committee, flitting at Gonoives, con sidering that General Solouque had -abased, the power which had "been conferred upon him—shedding innocent blood profusely. Considering that General Solonqne hag perjured the national fitith. in upsetting tbe institutions by which he was invested with the authority, ho is in consequence deprived of his privileges, for having: ■- 1.
