The passengers announce that they are emigrants, but no one puts any faith in this, and it was pretty generally understood that they were filibus- ters. They all have the appearance of being Spaniards, and from all that we can learn, their destination ‘was undoubtedly Cuba. What the names of those fellows are, who are their comrades, or what has become of them, I cannot ascertain. Should the Ariel, which ‘carries this, delay her departure, I will again address you, and probably explain the whole matter. We are all much interested in this affair, but the Spanish Consulate the most 80, and the members of the same are evidently of opinion that they will have work on their hands. In addition to the thirty or more emigrants, largo quantity of arms have been found on board the African, and no description of them on the manifest, so that I fear that the Captain of the African, who appears to be a first rate fellow, will get himself and vessel into some aimculty. From several captains with whom I have conversed I vbtained accounts of this matter; but each statement that Thave recelyed differs so much from the other, I think it idle to send you any of them, but will write you again in a few days by the brig Helen. We learn by wa} New York—let me confess it, with some sui the success of Monsieur Deselunes in the Southwestern States in inducing a large body of blacks to emigrate to our island. It is said two or three hundred are on their way, and that others will follow. If they are prepared to work, then, in the name of the nation, welcome—and if they bring any knowledze of the useful or ornamental trades, J can almost promise them abundant success, and often wealth; but if they come ee, the luxury of idleness, and content to live on what they may gather growing wild on the moun- tains, they are better at bome, and we are contsnt without such an addition to our population. Lot them come as I have heard that the German emigrants come to your country, with sufficient money to support themselves a few weeks while they look about for labor that suits them.

The native bas broader shoulders and stronger arm: than the northern black. It is only bya knowledge gained by living in the midst of civilization that the im- ported negro can vie successfully with the native. The Revue de Commerce says:— The empire, with its tyranny,#0 demoralized the psopie of the country that every branch of industry was stifled to such @ point even that wood is imported for the conmon joinery of houses; workmen no longer educate apprentices, for the young men were forced into the army—that school of crime and immorality. All this is past: the army is being rapidly reduced, ana the service is limited to nine years to natives, and all promises well for the future.» Before the blacks of the United States emigrate to Hayti let President Geffrard give them security from the army.

Mr, Seward replied as follows:— MR. SEWARD’S SPEECH. Mr, CHARMAN AND GENTLEMEN—I need not say to you that I have the feelings of aman, and amongst them that gratitude which is oppressed by every act of kindness which is bestowed upon me. Since this is so, it can hard- ly be me that I should explain that I would gladly ave avoided even this demonstration of kindnegs on your part. I would have done so, and I endeavored with my best ability to do #0, because I was not wilting to allow any personal consideration of my own to enter into the discussion of the great questions which agitated the American people. But, gentlemen, you have overruled me. You find me now not in the part of a par. tisan. My iples and sentiments remain unchanged— they never have changed—and it is not likely, at my ad- vanced age, that they ever will ; but you find me about Jeaving my native land for reasons which, to myself, at least, are sufficient. I would forget, during my absence, even my political relations. I would remember no. thing, of those things which would cheor me in my absence—nothing which could produce or leave any ¢: Me tice which bind me to my country are strong. They are the ties of kindred; they are the bonds of affection; and I think they are the wishes and hopes of patriotism. These ties may be stretched—they are to be stretched—with how much of tension we cannot now foresee. But I know they are elastic and will bring me home again, And when I return can only say, if it may be the pleasure of the good Providence who has thus far me, that I find my friends un- diminished and kindred still alive, happy and pros- Perous, and country rich, strong, united and free, I- shall be gratefully content. (Applause.) The company were then invited to partake of refresh- ments, and several toasts were drank. Mr. L, the host, was called upon, and although not a political friend of Mr. Seward, said nobody wished him greater success. Hoe hoped when he returned he would find his friends undiminished either in zeal or numbers. Ex Governor Kiva was next upon. He gaid:—I am bound to acknowledge, at any rate, gentlemen, the generous sentiment you have expressed towards myself. I have done my duty according to my best ability, and I believe not enly republicans but others are willing to concede that, upon the whole, I conducted myself like an honest magistrate. As to the distinguished gentleman you have met to honor, I will say that I want bim to return that I may assist in ae te him an act of kindness, and not only to him but to this country—an act which will honor us all—I mean to elevate bim to the highest post which this country can confer. (Loud cheers.) Mr. Kiva closed by wishing Mr. Seward a safe voyage, and a speedy, glorious and honorable return. Several other speeches were made, and the company separated at a late hour.

It appears she was a cook in the house, and was a malicious character; indeed, the Clerk, on referring to tho record after the court adjourned, dis- covered that she had served a term in the State prison for another offence. She preferred not to run the riak of atrial on the indictment, having been informed that if convicted she would have to suffer the penalty attache to a capital offence, and by advice of her counsel pleaded guilty to an attempt at arson in the first degree, which plea was accepted by the prosecuting officer.
