Rep i Boston , Feb 24. ( FROM ST. DOMINGO. ] A friend who lias just arrived 1 from the Kingdom of Hayti, has furnished us vvi;h ihe U>.y;d Ga zette of that state, a variety off printed documents, proclamations j ike f’um the Royal press at Cape 5 Henry (Francois,) and verbal in* \ telligcnce of the state of the coun-! try. King H enry . (Chi istophe) [ was at peace with Ft lion and j the world, regulating the civil [ policy of his extensive territories j and encouraging the progress oil cultivation and the arts and sci j ences- His residence is at the j Palace of Sans Souei, in a town} built by h m under a mountain 30 Mules from the cape, highly cu.hi-j vated. and defended by works : covered with 500 pieces of can ion. The population of his sub - j ;iecu increases rapidly, and it is , supposed he has 150,000 men a-1 ’vie to bear arms. fPetion is said \ ;o have 200,000 ) The crown f king Henry had lately been re ceived from London, where it ;ost 28,000 dollars, exclusive cf j he demands which his sable ma j j .sty furnished himself. Ilisl uate coach had also arrived, and! s a-superb c image’built at ari expense of 13,000 dollars in Eng- * land. Schools and academies are patronised by him, and he is about commencing the erection 1 )f a college:, for which he has sent to Europe for 20 professors or ! instructors. —A contract for three. cargoes of lumber from this coun-; ry for the completion of the col legate buildings we have seen.— Commerce and the culture of the oil was improving in his domin ons; strangers on mercantile bu rners are treated honorably, and he kingdom rising in power and espcciability. Ihe Ist and 2d 1 anu;ry, the 13 th a rin i vers ary o f he liberty and independence oi layu, were celebrated with th:.- reatest solemnity and magnifi ence at the city of Sans Souri, >y a procession review, mase. vee, addresses, feasts, iiiumma .nts, he. A roll of the knights the royal and military order of aint Henry, is given in one of , ie napers ; and a list cf 50 foV v vasCii Whtvii Svti*vd Henry from tbe*ist of July : > the 9thx>f November last. A :atalog ie of the princes, dukes; counts and barons, digra?writes pf Re empire, is found in some of -he pubUcations. N atvriihsland* ingthe cession of arms, a p iper war seems to be directed from Christopher press against Pe* don—and the pamphlets, jour nals, &e are written aud primed in a respectable style. flj* It is ft subject on which our astonishment is equalled oik ly by our regret, that live militia of this state, who performed near the close of the war arduous ser-* - vices, are yet unpaid. The re gular troops at For;-Hawkins, if we are correctly informed, have still greater cause of complaint--* arrears cf pay for two years back ire due them. Knowing these facts, our regret was not dim in* 2sbed at hearing, that the Fey* master was on his way from Charleston to Fort-Hawkins v/tth lands, but entirely inadequate to p:n- oif the troops there. In the mean time th y are desert ng in, squads ; and no wonder—-they perhaps consider that the en gagement between them and the Government imposes a reciprocal obligation—and that in a con tract, when one party fails, the ci ther is no longer bound. Alter so long delay, we trust the pit tance of these men, both mTuia and regulars, will be paid in cur rent money of the Southern i States, and not in Northern bills, | which are a; a discount of from five to ten per cent. We mike this remark, %ecause precedent may be supposed to have sanO timed such a practice. Thai good policy as well as justice re quires that Government to fifUl her engagements with prompt* Iness. partici lnrly towards those I who fight her battles, will net be ! disputed. When we sh dl be en gaged in another war, it will be discovered perhaps when too l?ue # that punctuality in paying suii'iers, iis ihe surest m thod of getting re* I a tuts, j[Geo. Joan.ah ! C3* It is a curious fact, that Daniel D. Tompkins , lias been ‘nominated by the Republicans of New York for the Presidency £4 ?t the same time for Governor of .that state. It is supposed lie will be started at Washington for the Vice-Presidency—in which case lie will be in nomination for three high Gbices, one of whie h on:y he can hold. (Ib.
