FROM HAYTI.-Mr. Benjamin Lundy has just arrived from his second visit to Hayti, having proceeded to that Island in part to ascertain the condition of the colored emigrants who were removed from the United States three or four years since, at the expense of the Haytien government, and partly to take out twelve other emigrants who have been liberated by Joseph Leonard Smith, Esq. of Maryland. The whole number removed at the expense of the Haytien government was about 6,000. Of these, some have become discontented and returned; and some who remain are dissatisfied with the system of working on shares, while others are doing remarkably well, and could not easily be persuaded to exchange their condition for a residence in the U. S. Mr. Lundy informs us that he procured such situa→ tions for the new emigrants as were abundantly satisfactory, and that there is a prospect of the adoption of a plan in regard to the rest, which will remove every symptom of discontent. The whole number of colored persons now on the Island, who have emigrated from the United States within the past eight or nine years, Mr. L. estimated at 8,000: some of whom are among the most influential and respectable inhabitants.

N. Y. Jour. of Commerce.

It is stated that the late Gov. Ridgely, of Maryland, has, by his will, emancipated all his slaves, to the number of upwards of four hundred. Those who have attained the age of 28 years are to be free immediately; such as are over forty-five, to have some provision made for their support, out of his estate; and those of the younger class are to be free, the males at twenty-eight years of age, and the females at twenty-five.

CINCINNATI, JULY 6.

Coloured People in Ohio.-The Supreme Court, at their late sitting in this county, decided that the law of this State, regulating the settlement of coloured people among us, is constitutional. In consequence of that decision the Trustees of this township have notified them, that they must leave in thirty days, or the law, which requires that they shall individually give bonds to the amount of $500, will be put in force against them.-They in their turn, have assembled to the amount of two thousand, as they have represented, and chosen their delegates, to make arrangements for their final removal, and ask for three months to effect that object. We think their request reasonable, and that it ought to be granted. We consider this class of people as a serious evil among us, but this evil has been brought upon us by the whites, with great injustice to them. The only remedy afforded is, to colonize them in their mother country. Now is the time for Colonization Societies "to be up and doing."

Fernando Po.-The latest arrival from this new settlement in the Bight of Biafra, on the western coast of Africa, informs us that a great number of

A number of the native re

mechanics have lately arrived with other settlers, from Sierra Leone, together with a quantity of building materials. giment had also arrived, and were garrisoned on the out-skirts of the town, where their services had already proved a valuable acquisition to the laborers employed in building and clearing away the trees and vegetation, in shielding them from the annoyance of the innumerable bodies of natives. The King had not yet returned from the mountain, whither he had gone and had secreted himself, with a Spaniard and a number of his subjects, soon after the landing of Captain Owen. The natives were providing themselves with spears and other warlike implements, by means of bartering their fine growth of yams for pieces of iron hoops. They are a treacherous set, and are most likely only waiting for an opportunity to make a bold incursion. Much praise appears to be due to that indefatigable officer, Captain Owen, governor and commander on the first and favourable formation of this settlement, for his endeavor to establish civilization and the most friendly disposition among the natives and the new settlers, for his strict attention to the welfare of those under his command, and for the generous feeling of humanity evinced in the capture of so many slave-vessels, the cargoes of which have been sent to Sierra Leone for adjudication, after which they are received at the new settlement and kindly treated. The Europeans were greatly annoyed by the sting of a species of fly which infested the island; and several through sickness, had been sent home. The seamen were not allowed to land without a sufficient clothing, and the Arab fashion had been again introduced (as upon capt. Owen's late survey of Africa,) and the beard and mustachio had already grown to an enormous length, which, when washed, tends greatly to refresh and keep cool the upper story, for the remainder of the day. It is generally thought that this settlement will not answer present expectations, especially while the Portugese government have so extensive a slave factory (in St. Paul de Leondo) a few degrees southward. However, we have reason to believe that a fuller explanation will shortly be published of this interesting part of Africa, by one of the officers belonging to the squadron, together with other interesting parts of the eastern and western coasts of Africa, from the Persian Gulf to the river Gambia, collected during the late nautical survey, and now nearly brought to a close.-[From the London Literary Gazette.

THE EFFECTS OF SLAVE LABOUR.-John Nichols offers for sale that valua ble property called the James river slate mines, sixty miles above Richmond, Va. He says his object is to relieve himself as far as possible from a dependence on Slave labour. How many of our industrious and enterprising citizens, being disgusted with the idea of rearing a family of children in a land so rapidly peopling with slaves, have sold their possessions and removed themselves to Ohio, where the increasing prosperity of the people so strikingly demonstrates the superior advantage of free labour!

Plan of Gerrit Smith, Esq.

In our last number, we had the pleasure of announcing four new subscribers on this Gentleman's plan for augmenting the funds of the Society. The Rev. Dr. Meade of Frederick County, Va. writes, "our collection on the fourth of July, amounted to one hundred and fifty-five dollars, one hundred of which, was the first annual subscription of an association of twenty members of my congregation on the plan of Mr. Smith. It appears to me, that with a little exertion on the part of the Ministers and leading members, many congregational associations might be formed. I am happy to be able to add to your list, a member of my congregation, Mr. George Burwell, who will follow Mr. Smith's example, and pay a thousand dollars." We have since the above was received, been favoured with an interview with Dr. Meade, and learnt that the second association in his congregation was nearly if not quite complete, and that the Society might therefore confidently expect at least 300 dollars annually from the Episcopal Society in Frederick. Let it not be forgotten, that it was in this county, and through the efforts of Dr. Meade, that, at the origin of the Society, subscriptions were obtained for its support, of nearly seven thousand dollars; seventeen hundred of which were given by Dr. Meade himself and his most estimable family, two members of which, now in heaven, bequeathed to the same sacred cause the whole of their property, amounting (if we mistake not) to about $5000. Surely facts like these should excite a spirit of holy emulation in the minds of other Christians, and to every Church, every Minister, and every disciple of the Saviour, we would say, you are urged by all the motives which can influence a virtuous heart, to imitate so bright an example.
