Citizen Granville. - We regret to learn that Citizen Granville has sailed for St. Domingo, that something unexpected demanded his presence in Hayti we have every reason to believe. It was the intention of that gentleman to have remained in this country until the session of our congress, to whom he was charged to make some communications. However, we trust that his primary object, the colonization of Hayti, has received such an impulse that it will not be essentially retarded by his absence.
