Interesting from Ha) tt, TERMINATION OF THE WAE-—ABAND NMENT BY THE EMPEROR OF ANY FURTHER PROJH T OF INVASION THE KEY TO THE LATE MOVEMENT AGAINST THE DOMINICANS—ITS DISASTROUS KESULTS TO THR TRADE OF THE ISLAND—IMPERIAL PROOLAMATION. By the bark Clara Windsor, Captain Button, which ar- rived at this port yesterday, from Port au Prince, Hayti, February 25, we have received the following interesting intelligence:— His Imperial Mejesty, Anding his opponenta too atrong for him, bas abandoned his ma:ch end retreated to the Cape, whore he is now enjoying the repose of quict life, surrounded by bis ministers, officers and some ten thou- sand of bis eoldiers, ‘This campaiga seems to have beon undertaken by the Emaperor jess with the ites of coaque:ing vhe eastern part by force ot arms, than by bribery and corruption, as it is well known that long before the first movement @ troops lazge sums Cf Spanish money had been sent to cer tain Dominicans for the encoursgement and maimtenancs of @ party eald to exist among them favorable to Hsytien rule. Report says one hundred thousand Spanish dollars had been sent for dis‘ribution, and it is kaown that bix Mojesty bad with him when he left the capital some fifty thousand doliars in gold, and ordered additional sums to ‘be vent forward 10 meet him on the fr: nore. The Dominicans, however, co far from baving employed these funds ia hia favor, set th-mseives vigorously to work to prepare for a desperate resinvance, their troops this time being more numerous and better armed and equipped than ever before, and they have made ned havoc with the poor Raytiens, cutting up whole regiments of them with \heir minie rifles. Whatelse could have beewn expected bat their destracticn, whon they were pusbed forward utterly without arms capable of defence; their muskets bursting on the first fire, b yone's breaking or benaing doubie on meeting with the slightest resistance, and not leat important of all, entire'y without tood? Mon: can- not fight af:er having been enfeealed by long and paiafal warebec, and deprived of the commonest recessaries. Beniées all this, ‘he soldiers themselves were oppoved to the march, and entire regiments of them, when in pre- tence cf the enemy, threw down their arms and relusei to fight. By the Empercr’s firet procismation the troops were led to believe they were on a tour of pleasure, and were to meet wiih no opposition, but quistly taze possession of eacountry, the people of which were ready to receive them with open arms. They #oon, however, found out their mistake when the balls began to whistie about their ears, and the Domixicans were upon them, cutting them down right and lett. ‘The Haytiens have avffered greatly, and besides the enormous lore of life, the Dominicans took from them three pieces cf canncn. The loss of these seems to have made rove {mpreseion cn his Majesty than that of his men. ‘The Miitary Hospital at the Cape is filled with the weanded, vast numbers of whom atijl remain about the field of tho Iaat battlo, incapable cf being removed; their umber, however, is dsily diminishirg trom want of medteal care and ouitadle nourishment, the dysentery having carried cif mavy of them already, Speaking of hespitals, it ceems that the pubdtication last year in one of the New York papers about the threatened closing of the Private Seamon’s Hospital at the Cape, however erroneous some of its cl may have been, has had a goodeffect. His Mojeasy has given orcers peimittirg their ostablishment in ali the ports of the island. This ia ag it should be, and cannot fail to be productive of great pub le good. Buelness ali orer the isiand is fn a most wretched state, owing, ina measure, to the removal of so large a portion of the male population from their homes, this Jaat will uxdoudtedly, have @ serivus influence on the export of coffee of the prevent crop, and greatly dimicish its alreacy email quactity. Some montha since the Emperor published an crcer prohibiung the cutting of sny more mahi gany crotobes. As this article was quite # valuable une in the list of exports, ita prohibition will te eeriously felt, particularly under existing eircum- *tances. The greater portion of these crotohes were fe- Jepiourly cut<n government lands, and the abuse could only Le stopped by torbidding any farther exportations. PROCLAMATION, eet I, Emperor of Hayu, to the People and the riry:— Hi di ns! when rome weeks rince, at the head of my ar- my, I qviited the capital, I believed it necessary t> ac- it you with my determinativa. rythirg ob iged me, as+oon as possible to under- the caw peign of the Fast. My obedience to the oath ich I hed taxen to maintain our cons'itution; my cer titude of numercus sympathies in the Kast, above all, imminence of a foreign invaricn of this port—these wi the preceing motives which guided me. No sacrifices would I have spared to insure the well- doing ot wy coldiers and the success of that campniga but I had counted without tresson. Altvdy at Manuel Rrvo the Imperial aolciers had receiv- ed'the couble beptism of blood and fire, Already at Las Damar, Baile ce Lami'e, our enemies, driting everything before them, bad penetrated mto the town ot Saint Jean ce Negre, when some traitor from the ranks of the army paralyved my efforts, and caused us to loee the fruits of our firet successes. Thecowards! Toey did not perceive in their blinévesa, ttat they trampled under foot thet coretitution which they hed sworn todefend’ have not felt—these unworthy descendon's of the founders of our ind '—that repudiating the inheritege of our fatbers, they delivered to foreigners tne soll of their coan , yet warm with tbe blood of their ancestors! Jnder there circumstances. I retrace my ateps, putting off for w time the accomplivhment of the oata J have taken to maintain the integrity cf our territory. Haytiavsa, be calm! Your emperor watches over you. Ibave given you tranquilty; I shall know how to preserve it. Already the traitors have paid with their lives their in'emous conduc’ ! Officers and soldiers who have remained faithful to your cath, Lem eatisfied with you. But for these traitors our mission bad been eccompliched. So return to your homes with your heads high, for you have done your duty. Leng live the {ndepencence!

George Wilson.— The decisicn of the Court on the demurrer to the indict- ment ip this case was Colivered by Judge Bexts. Tae pi socer, as will be recollected, was the cork of the schooner Eudora Imegene, whose captain and mate ho is eapposed to Rave murdered, and which was ¢unk by him. For this latter cflence he was indicted under the uct of Con- Gress of Match 46, 1804, which enaetn that any person, not belrg au owner, who shail on the high seas wilfally and covuptly cast any, burn or otherwive destroy any vessel to which be belovgs, being tae property of any citizen of the United States shall euffer death. Tae pri- tourr demcrred to the indictment, thus admithng the ‘eet charged. It waa covosded by the United States that the vessel was destreyed at a a point between City Islaad and Hart Island in the East river, within tho territ rial umite ot the county o: Weechestor oud torn of Pethan, aud thus witbin the jurisdiction of the State of New York. The question raised by the demurrer is whet | the place where the act waa dose is within tne cruninal Jarisdietion of the Court. Held by the Coet—Tner it is aseumed aa a notzriouy gecgraphical fact that the breadth of water there is not more (ban two wiles. That ihe civil jurisdiction of the Cni ed Staten Courle, under the oon-titution, embracee tide waters within the bays, inlets aud bardors along tae coast an® in ravigable rivers. That { ts, however, a fundamental decuine in respect to the federal Ovacts ot tute: ior juriadiction, tha: they cannot take ooguizance of crimingt uffenees o* any grads without the express ap- pot ment or Cirection of a positive law, Chat unter tha act in quertion the place where the offence is committed becomes an escemtial element io the description of the offence, thay the accured is not subjected to punishment. uncer the act unless the vessel was ‘on the high gas,” and unless tne plsce srecified in the indic:zent is ‘‘on the high eeas,”’ this Court has no jurisdiction over tha offence, ‘That Congress, before and eursequent to this enactment, hea in its’ criminal legulati n seduloualy evinced the intention to use the term high seas in its pepular end natural sense, and in contradis*inction trom that of mere tidewaters flowing in ports, hav-ns and ba- tina, (Crimes Ast cf 1790, see. 8; and act 0! 1825, sections 4, 5. 6, 7, 8, 11;) aud the adjudications of the Cvurts have shown tat cometruction to be in conscnance with the principles of genera) jurisprudence, (4 Mason, 307; 5 ib.. 260; 1 Storey, 251; 25unp., 1.)

Singular Marine Court Martial in Charles town, Mass, Captain Jabez C. Rich was recently tried by a Court Martial at Charlestown, Mass., the proceedings com- mercirg on the 26th and ending upon the 20th uit. The Court was compored of the following officers of the Marino Corps:—Lieut. Col. John Harris, President; Capt. Henry B. Tyler, Brevet Major G. H. Terrett, Brevet Major Jacob Zeilio, Brevet Captain Wm. A.T, Maddox, Brovet Captain Robert Tapsill and First Lieut, Israel Green, The Judgo Advocate waa first Liout. John C.

The ficding of the Court will he inter- esting to our military readers, to show how far a supe- nor military officer can control the private quarters of an inforior officer. Brevet Lieut. Colonel Pulany. com- manding the barracks at Charlestown, who complained to the Secretary ot the Navy, and upon whore complaint these charges were preferred, claimed the right to ox- civde a particular washerwoman, in tne employ of Capt. Rich, from not ooly the barracks, but from his own pri. vate quarters. Upon this point this Court waa convened. Jt appears that Mra. Livor, wife ofa marine, ths wo- jan alluded to, was, by an order of Lieut. Col. Dulany, Gated Fob. 5, 1856, excladed trom coming within the precineta of the barracss, in consequence of her indecent and citgrace‘ul language. ‘The defence held that the first charge of disobedience of a lawful command ts disproved.

The Times declares the honer ond dignity of England must be maintained, and warns the government not t accept pence that public opinion will not apprcve. Lord Palmerston would certainly prefer reriguing to doing so, fr he would infallbly be tarowa, out with a ruined reputation, if he were to attempt @ compromise that would be humisisting to John Bull.

I may venture to predict: th'smash, without laying claim to powere of second sight, We have had another amusing epissde in connection with the war in the Crimea, Abcut a year ego Lord Cardigan and several other officers of high grade came home covered with newspaper giory, and were received with ehouts ot applause by the people, and promoted and decorated by the sovereign. It now turns out, by the report of a Commissioner appciated to examine inte the miamansgement that took place in the Crimes, thet the very officers in question, so ¢iaed and adored, are amongst the most culpable of all those accused of neg- lect and iccapscity. fhis bas brought great ridicule om there officers and upcn the Court who was #0 ready to advance them. To get rid of this awkward matter for the present, Lord Valmerston has done something more original than rational. He hss appolnted a new commissicn of indtviduals, warraned “ never to have been in the Lrimen” to report on the report of th commission of distinguished persons sent out to the Cet mea to investigate facts and evidence on the spot. Such solemn absurdities as these will neither benefit the Court or the aristocracy; at least the Times anys so—Detter au- thority than mine. ‘The Houre of Lords haa mansged for once to attract rcrve small share of pudiic at‘en jon lately, by attem irg to oppose the creation of a peerage for life.
