—By the brig Phil. Enquirer, Capt. King, arrived yesterday from Cape Haytien, intelligence has been received at the Merchants' Exchange as late as the 28th ult.

Tranquility was restored at Cape Haytien. Guerrier had been proclaimed President of the North, and accordingly acknowledged.

The different divisions of the Island are to be erected into States, somewhat after the plan of the United States. If the Dominicans reject this offer, another expedition will be sent against them.

There were five French brigs-of-war and a steamer off the island.

The additional duty of $10 per M. on coffee had been removed.

H. B. M. frigate Spartan, of 26 guns, Captain Elliott, arrived at the Cape on the 26th, from Port au Prince.

Port au Prince and the South was submissive to Guerrier's Government.

Ex-President Herard, and his kinsman, late President of the Assembly, had been ordered to leave the Island.

No new expedition was designed against the Dominicans, for which the government had then no means. The army had suffered from the small pox, hunger, nakedness, &c. in their retreat after the late battle by the Dominicans.

The U. S. sloop Preble was at Aux Cayes a few days before the Phil. Enquirer sailed. She was expected at Port au Prince.

While there, the 'Baltimore' was at different times a means of shelter, not only to our American Consul, Mr. Usher, but at one time to near 40 of our citizens. Their lives were in danger during the late tumults; added to which was a large amount of property, and mostly sent off to the Baltimore for safety. Even at midnight the boats were kept in motion to receive them. The prospect of returning quiet caused the disembarkation of both persons and property.
