The tables were very finely decorated; and, among the rBaments, we noticed representations of Shakspere’s frtbplace, the Giobe theatre, and tableaux from the Merchant of Venice,” ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream,’ ‘The Tempest,”’ and ‘Twelfth Night.” The sentiment {the occasion could not have been better carried out ban it was by the Messrs.

OUB ST. DOMINGO CORRESPONDENG'S- Sam Domurco, March 15, 1866. War Peeling in Hayti Cooling Down—The Staugha’ on the Battlefidds—Bravery of the Dominicans and Cowardics of the Baytiens—Solouque’s Forces Make a Trenchwork— They are Dislodged—Great Haul of Prisoners—Death of General La Plew—Return of the Dominican Army and General Santana—A Treaty of Commerce and Extradi tNom with the United States—Opposition of the European Powers Unavailing. The war {a over in this beautifal and rich island, and ft is the geveral optnion among persons who have been late- Jy in Hayti that in not many years from now neither So- lougue wer any other of the Emperors or Presidents of that country would be powerful enough to raise there avother army to mazeh ageinst this republic, such le the terror that prevaile among the sable Emperor’s muti- Isted army, and in the whole empire, en account of the bravery of the Dominicans aod the awful slaugh‘er they wade of the Haytiens, although being very much intertor ia number to the invaders, At Sentomé, Cambronal and Sebana Largs, places where the belligerents’ fought great battles, Soloaqn defeat was most complete, he always having ran like & veritable coward, aa ho iv, And it is strange in. deed, but true, that in those three baitles only thirty eight Domineans were billed, whilat tho enemy's army lost ebout three thousand. This astonishing difference arises, in the first place, from the Dominicans being all first rate hunters; second!y, from their trick of stooping down at the time the Hayiiens fired at them; and finally, trom their bravery {n throwing away their mus- hets after the first cischarge, and rushiog on the ene- wy with the matchete unsheathed (a kind of heavy sword) and billing them like wild hogs. This rash fash- 1on of making war produced confusion and terror among the Haytiens, so much so that soon after the Dominicans began to show their machetes, they run as fast as poasible, snd the Deminican cavairy purcued them and did great execution with their lances. The Dominicsns, no doabt, are true heroes. At the battle of Santomé they were seven hundred in number, and the Haytiens more thao three thousand, and for all that they defeated them and mate them retreat. In the night of that cay the Haytiens made a stone en- trenchbment six bundred and seventy-nine yards long by five and a half high and two and a balf wide; this gives an idea cf their superiority in num- bers over the Dominicans. But, however, they did not Ceem it enough w protect themselves, for as soon as the Dominicans began to attack them \hey flew from there —it being wortby o! notice that Santana coula catch them, only be Bot koow what to do with so many priscners. He says ‘hat to kill them would heve been saainay bis princ!ples and the international law: yt to keep them in prison would have been too expon- sive for the repubtic. In that remarkable battle the Dominican General, Jose M. Cabral, went on nis horse over to the enemy, aud with bis eword killed the Haytien General La Fleur, and wounded and pursued several other Haytiens until 9 o'clock in the night, when some of his officsrs met him on the field, and, holetbg the brid'e of his horse, compelled hig) to ecme back to his eneaw pment. Bo manyfHaytiens hve been kilied in these three battlos that the D. mizicans could not bury al of them, aad he lfelers bodies remain in lazge heaps ia the opnn fields, Thore who donbt the great slaughter made of the Empe- ror’s soldiers may see the proof which wili remain in eight for rame mcnths to come. @ entrance into this capital of the army of the South, with President Santana at its head, took place on the 6th inst. Triumphant arches were erected slong the stzeets by which they marched, and ail the heures bad flags tn their windows and balconies, from whicb the ladies threw flowers and fames to the Liberator and General Cabral. At foot of one of ‘be srches drums, hatenets Hay one late! ‘the flogs having o gilt imperial eagie, Santana and hus the cathedral! square, and ff panees over thom.

Im the night we bad good fireworks ia the fame fquare, where two bands of music were playing for more \ban an hour. But to spesk of all, Jet me something about a mi ter rather important to the Americar. It is, that a treaty of frierdebip, commerce and extradi'lon has been concloded between this republic anc the United St.tes of America. This ecnvention, | have been told, dees not coptain anything ¢ifferent from tuat made last year by Gexera) W. L. Cacneau and the Dominicsa Plen! ° lisries. It 1s alresdy in the Senado Covsultor, for its retification although the allies have intrigued a se- cord tiwe sgainet the American interest in this couatry, now they will not succeed. Om the 18th of next mouth ibe ratification of the testy will be en- corsed, without the elightest alteration. and soon sfter it will be sert for ita ratification to Weehington, oy Mr. Jonathan Kiliot, the American Pie: potentery. Segovia. the Spanish Onargé 4’ Affairs in this republic, is coing all in his power to stop the action of the Dcminican senate in this case, but in vain. The cpinion fs now stronger than it was lagt year in favor of ihe treaty smong the Senators and the Fxecu ive, as they kucw now that the meciaticn of France and England fs ‘ally nothing but humbug. and that the sable Emperor marched against this repuolic before the nose of the me- diators, doubUess with their consent, and toat would heve taken porsersion o! thia part of the island, but for Lcr'nican Ispees and oachetes. Now the people here call the machete ‘la medsacion—the mediation—and publiciy, even in the newapspers, ssy that they don’s need at all the interferense of France and England.
