An arrival from Hayti at Philadelphia brings intelligence to the 9th instant. In political affairs all was quiet. The Constituent Assembly had been dissolved. The project of dividing the Island into States was abandoned, and the Government is now in all respects as it was prior to the late revolution, with the exception that there are no municipalities, Port Republican (or Port au Prince) being the capital of the North, South, and West. At Port au Platt they still sustain the Dominican flag, and the authorities there have arranged the basis of a treaty with the French, by which the latter are to have a patent for the mines at Samana for a term of years, but it is thought it will not go into effect, as the majority of the population are opposed to it; meaning the partisans of Baez, who went to France to obtain a foothold on the Island. President Guerrier and suite were on a tour through the Island, and were daily expected at Cape Haytien.
