THE BLACK Republic,

HAVTI'S TRAVESTY OF CONSTITUTIONAL GOVERNMENT;

Hayth, where the latest revolution has broken ast, presents the most amusing travesty of Coastitational Government that exlite ady.

where in the world. Fossessing a represents tive assembly, it is at the same time govermed autocratically, and during the course of Ita career has probably witnessed more revolutions thao, all the "Central American States put together. Similarly, it is truer in Haye than olowhere, that the crowded head wears its smblem uneasily. Although comparisons are adjons, it is of interest to disclose the fates of

the colors of Hayti dudog the last century

which period the island has been occasionally' as empire rated by as Emperor, or a lawless republic presided over by a negro president,

Since 1804, then, when Hayti proclaimed its

·independence of France, although expressly retaining the French language for official use, there have been sixteen rulars, three of whom were Europeans. In each case these monarch met violent ends, one being assassinated, an- other committing suicide, and the third ftesirg to meet his death by drowning. The remaining rulers have each possessed presidential rank, but only que died in his bed and in office. The records of the rest show that ona wAS exiled, two were murdered, three abdicated under compulsion, four fled in danger of their lives, one was deposed after four months, one died of fever, or poison, while it appears not Improbable that the existing president will be turned out of office.

A fow years ago there were, same 7,000 re- gimental officers in addition, but unpaid, and employed to look after the-8,000 men ; but with aylow to economy, the General has become his own regimental officer, so that there are now. four Generals to each private, the explanation boing that the term Geaéral, as well as the raak, is conferred as a reward for services. in frequently given to the servants of the Pre- sidential mansion, to the sentries on duty at the Presidential gates, and to a hundred other quartom.

Nominally, the pay of a General of Division is £140 per annum, but a private. `receive'ços, a year, aed that on an average of once is every three years. The existing trouble, which is of no material. importance, is merely the usual outbreak against the party in office by leaders out of office.

SNAKE WORSHIP AND HUMAN SACRIFICE,

Hayti, an independent island in the West Indies, les 150 miles from Jamaica. It in divided into the two Republics of “an Domingo and Hayti, the latter possessing a population of about one millios aegroes of African descent and a few hundred white traders. It was discovered in 1491 by Columbus, and very soon became the resort of white adventurers, who imported there their "black, birds," negro slaves from West Africa, who have now dispossessed and absorbed the aboriginal population. Hayli became a French Colony'in 1697, and an independent Sitate in 1804, after a rising of the blacks and massacre of Europeans, As a link with its French traditions of the part century, Roman Catholicism is the official religion, but snake worship and the pagan rites of Africa, including occasional human sacrifice, still have a firm bold on a great pitt of the population.

"

The present President is General Nord Alexis, an eged negro, who for years has been exterminating everybody who refused to accept his protestations of loyalty to the Republic. Every sarpect was rigorously dealt with. The result has been that nearly every year there has been a conspiracy to overthow a regime under which mobody's life or property was safe. Late last year and early this year a more serious revolution was organized by rivit negro poli- ticians General Firmic and General Jumeau
