PEACOCK, FETHERSTON & CO. Nliredaesday, May 11, 1870. TIME SAN DOMINGO SWINDLE. We learn that an attempt is to be made (hiring the- present week to press the scheme for the annexation of San Domingo both upon the. Senate and the House. We hope to record itfr final defeat in both directions; although the fact= that: strangely enough, given it his hearty support, makes this result - somewhat - doubtful. If there ever was any sin -- cere belief-in the authority of President Baez Lb sell the island, it should have beeq dissipated by the facts which have been brought to light since the details of this scheme were pub lished. It is known• that the election by which 'a majority of the - Voters under the Baez juris -diction were made to sanction - the - salei was forced by cunning use of - popular ignorance and scandalous exercise of power which' surpassed any of Napoleon's exploits in _ the same direction. And it 1 is remembered, also, that when a - similar vote was cast in favor of annexation to Spain, the confiding Spaniards were driven from the island after fighting for three mouths and spending thousands of lives and twenty millions of money to secure their tenure. But over a large portion of the territory , included in the present treSty, 'Baez has no control whatever. The whole of the southern part — ofthe - island, - -with - many - of_the - _ - largest - towns,—_ and a vast number of inhabitants, is ruled by Cabral, who is Opposed to annexation and who is sustained in that opposition by his people. In proof of this, Cabral' has sent to Washington a remonstrance against the Baez scheme signed-by twelve thousand.of the lead ing men - of theisland: --- SoTwithout taking-into- • consideration the very important facts that we cannot afford to - buy any territory or to pay the debts of any other country at this time; and the still more, serious truth that absorption into our body polities of „strange community, of another race,. speaking another language, and entertaining opposite political opinions, *ill be attended with great danger, -we may condemn this undertaking merely because it his_not the approbation of those deeply interested. Baez has no more right to sell to the United States the island, over apart of whicb he happens to rule, than Mayor Fos lias to sell the...gity of Philanelphia to the State of New Jersey; and we warn Congress that the bargain will be re pudiated by the Dominicans if it is consum mated, and we shall have to make good our elairrs by a contest, the cost of which will be vastly greater than the amount of the purchase money. GENERAL HOWARD • The ASSociated Press has combined with a number of its dependent newspapers to preju dice the people of the country against General Howarffin advance of the verdict of the Com mission which is now engaged in investigating the charges against him.. ,Garbled extracts frdm the evidence, including only that portion of - the testimony which seems to be unfavora ble to General Howard, are sent all over the country, and they serve as texts for severe con demnation, and sometimes infamous abuse Of the accused. When this venomous disposition is displayed by Democratic newspapers we cats easily find a reason for it in General Howard's devotion to the cause of the oppressed negro, and also in that force of habit which makes unfairness in treatment of a politicalopponent inevitable. But the efforts of certain Republi can newspapers to blacken the reputation of this man are simply unpardonable, and must be attributed to some other 'motive than a de sire to have justice. done. Whatever General Howard's offences in the management of the Freedman's Bureau, it cannot be denied that during the war he proved himself a brave and accomplished soldier ; that he did good service in the cause of the Union,and that thote who knew him intimately regarded him as a consistent Christian gentleman. If he has foully betrayed the trust since reposed in him, these facts should not prevent libcpunishment. But at least they should insure the silence of decent — newspapers until his guilt is proved beyond question. This is all his friends ask for him ; if the charges advanced by that black . guard politician,Fernando Wood, are sustained by the investigation, every honest man will agree that General Howard deserves the shame of being classed among such men as his ac cuser ; but it is simply unkind, unfair and dis bonorable to seize upon fragments of evidence, and to endeavor from them to prove MS guilt, before the verdict is given. COVRIS AND 'ACOVN Cs.. Justice is said to be blind ; but it ought not to be deaf. The new Court .I.louse,=that thrOnic abomination in the eyes of the people of Philadelphia,—in its best estate, is in geniously contrived, not only to shock the eye by its external ugliness,, burto vex the ear by„ i. its internal acoustics. Lately, an ingenious at tempt has been made to ascertain whether it is possible to make the court-room worse, than it is in its original shape. The witness-box, the reporters' table, the seats for counsel, the jury box,bave all been twisted around, with a result which may be said to be perfectly successful. Thus, the prisoner in the dock is removed so far from the 'witness on the stand, that not only is the latter perfectly secure from any possible vi_olence from the latter, • • , •9 a y ea e rom eing offended by 'anything which the witness may Bay, as he cann6t hear a word of the evidence. Then the jury is ingeniously arranged- so that they can be ;approached by anybody, while they cannot see the prisoner, nor can the - • • . prisoner see the jury, • beyond an oetwiieual glimpse of .the-backs.of their heads. Then the ;reporters are placed behitul the witnesses, 60 Are ag to avoid accuracy in their reports of witat• 18 'aidd. 'And finally a gland effect of MMM! muddled indistinctness pervades the court room, so that judge, jury, prisoner and coun sel are kept wide awake in the painful effort' to catch stratch stray words of what is being said. — - Happening in at, this miracle of bad architec ture and worse arrangement, yesterday, NO wit nessed a practical illustration of the farce to Wbiel justice is reduce - d under this - ingenious cumbination of circumstances. A case was on trial, and bad progressed to the end of the Commonwealth's testimony, when the prisoner rose in the .dock and. stated to the Court that he had not been, able to hear what was going on 1 The witnesses were recalled, and by placing the prisoner in the extreme front of the dock, standing, and, urging the witnesses to raise their voices, the prisoner was gradually made acquainted with the character of the evidence against him . The case was not one of life and death, but it would have been the same if it had been. This practical commentary on the utter failure of this Court-room to fulfil the ends of justice seemed to strike the spectators very: forcibly. Whether it will result in any fresh attempts to make the apartment available as a Court-room remains to' be seen. If the sacred-soillsts would only riselti their majesty andindlthe wrecched' structure down, there might be some Wipe of an improvement, for it would not be in human ingenuity to 'construct anothsr building as tigly or as useless. • . . The itiquirer'givns - .the - confession-of-a -mur derer, this morning; but says that - little -confi dence is to be given to the statements of the prisoner," who• Writes poetry and shows Other signs : of weakness of mind ." What.a dreadful state of society there will be when this rule of judgment-becomes-general ! Time. . was when the writing of poetry was regarded as a mark of high intellect. Several persons, in different, ages of the world, have made considerable local reputations by their poems. Shakespeare and Mrs. Leo Hunter, and Byron and the Bard of Tow ernall, and Dante and Mrs: BroWning,and Anonymous of the Public -Ledger and many. =others Have-soul; - their sands, and have never been accused of any weakness of mind. But the times are changing, and we shall soon have .eloquent defences of murderers, based upOn their poems. Then the nn4ecution will show that poets are often dreadful-murderers; ,and-the, -counsel- -who- can quote poetry witlilli#llnest effeet — wi, 11 carry the jury with him. Imagine our immortal " Dan." .doing justisii to a client's poetry, or "taking_off "_ the_productfons of the other . side ! The - .MCFarlandlrial, Which has disgraced the Yorkbench and. bar for weekS past, . „......„ „ terminated _yesterday, as everybody knew that it-would, in an-acquittal. It is a pity that this miserable scandal could not drop here, and. its various actors pass quickly into kindly -ob scurity. But this is not to be allowed. Mc,_ Farland, broken and ruined by the misconduct 'of his wife and the immoral conspiracy of her false friends, is now to be-hunted by the Tri bune's merciless pack, - just-as the_ Tribune- has been hunted by the equally unscrupu lous counsel who have defended the. outraged husband. Mrs. McFafland, soi-disant Richardson, takes her first innings to-day, in the columns of the Tribune, probably , the joint prOduction of the whole intellect of the estab lishment. It is only to .be hoped that, with the dreadful example of Mrs. Stowe before us, nobody will answer Mrs. McFarland. Ou the slightest provocation, she will write a book about her real or fancied grievances, and so the last end of this wretched tragedy will be worse than the first.

May 11.--The Standard of. this morning publishes an interesting-interview - with McFarland last night, in which, he laid the whole blame of his troubles upou Mrs. Calhoun. and Mrs—Sinclair.: He Hays be in tends to question the-validity of the '.tudiatta divorce. He spoke affectionately of his wife, and intimated his present love for her in burn ing words. He stated that he would receive her back and be delighted at the chance. As he dwelt on his love for his wife, his brother • looked saddened, and.following the reporter to the door, iaid : " You' see he is crazy, and we have to watch him." Sworn lltatemeut of Mrs. McFarland-- Her Account, of Her Ilitudnitad's Con duct. The standard also publishes Mrs. McFar land'a Sworn statement and affidavit, giving in full the story of her married life and her rola+ tions to Richardson from first to last. In less than three Months after her marriage she discovered that she had linked herself to a drunkard, which was during the fall of .1.858, She was oppressed always by a want of Money-, and with greatdiffictilty got a scanty wardrobe for her baby. although McFarland professed to he making good bargains in real estate. On Cbristma.sll4;2, he pawned all of her jewels. He was unspeakably cruel to her. He threatened to puur prussic acid down her throat and to let his heart's blood out before her. He said be kept loaded pistols with which to shoot her at any moment. One mornitig,after a drunkeu orgie, he struck her a blow across the face, which caused her to reel backward, and which she; could never forget. After this she always caught his eye when he was in a passion, trincying lie could do her no mortal violence while she preserved a silent self-control. She believes her life was dm+ saved. Sometinitfs he approached her with his arms extended and his lingers bent like claws, as if to clutch at her tbroat,sayin : " How I would like to strangle you! Your life is bound some time to end in a tragedy'. Your blood will be on Your own head!' He became bitterly enraged at times, Mid drank heavily. He used expression+ in Rich ardson's bearing that I could not, endure. At last he decided that he wjei willing that we should separate, and that I {night go hack to my father's house. At midnight lie bade her an eternal-fare well,_say i rig he ViLL.4 _certainly_ going to destroy himself. He then took another notion, - and begged her forgiveness. She then placed herself under the protection of Mr. Sinclair's roof, and never afterwards saw Mr. McFarland except in the presence of others. Mr. -Richardson 's treatment of her was always most respectTul and most reserved. Her boy, seven years old, was always present during his visits. He simply pitied her.- Mrs. McFarland speaks other accidental in troduction to Mrs. Sinclair. who treated her with much kindness and real charity, and se cured for her husband a situation —Mr. Sin clair giving her house-rent free. On New Year's Day, 1867,MeFfirland drew two weeks' salary due her at the theatre, and went "on a drunk," leaving her to pay her board bill. For the first time she complained to Mrs. Calhoun that her burden seemed too heavy .to bear. She then relates her accidental meeting with Mr. Richardson, who came-to the same house -to . lodge. McFarland _saw her in his working room, getting her some manuscripts. Subse quently, ho saw her struggling throrigh the world with her children, separated from her husband, aud he loved her. This love was re . turned by her. The separation from McFarland, in which he seemed to release her from the bondage in which he held her, had to her the moral effect of - divorce. Regarding the intercepted-letter, she says it was a mixture of jest and sentiment. Anyone, - knowing Richardson would understand the allusion to the love of her as the growth of years was simply sentimental, as' he had known her only a few . months, .She - r egrets her parting with Percy. Regarding her divorce in Indiana, she says she knew McFarlaud had committed adultery while she lived with him, and had been offered proof of his committing that crime since she left him, but she preferred to obtain the divorce on the ground of drunkenness, extreme cruelty and failure to support her. She believes McFarland was born to do mur der. She married Richardson becatise she . was free and he desired her to do so. . She pities McFarland. • She complains that Judge Davis was not al lowed to sumwp, to dO•justice - to Richardson's memory, and her honor and reputation—her best frienda. " In . conclusion, Mrs: McFarland says : " It is nown_.thal.Lbtakebeen pn. trial before a New — Dark Court as well as .Mr. McFarland, and for a crime more- heinous, more bitterly punished in woman - than murder committed by map. It is clearly seen, by all who see did- passionately, that wherever a loop-hole opened for any truth about my-conduct or • Richard • son's, it , . was. • immediately stopped. •I, haVe tasted to its.drege the cup of justice which in . tb e ,nineteenth .century men born,. ot•woman nnete,out to one whose worst crime was the mistake of marrying'a man Who was a halt' madman from natural inheritande, and 'half brute from natural proclivities. • Of the jus- lice I hive .rece4;ed let :those 00 refill' my 1 story be wittiesoes." 'To this letter is appenden a atatentent of Richardt•on'A brother, his adininstrayor ,Shovi ing that his estate was not worth more than S2b,feo, and Mrs. Richardson has refused to receive any part of it, except that required to rear and educate hersarphan children. • Also, Itichardson's will and Ins statement to Junius 11.

Be would refuse to.defend himself from at tack,- as he did not want the blood of any man on his hands. ' "It would be too horrible for the children. who are hers and bear his name —too -horrible for my. children. Indeed, -I- hardly know which would be worst, under any dretimstances, to kill him or have'him kill me," He 'gives thirteen reasons to show the pu rity of his motives and Mrs. Mararland's con= duct, embracing mostly the same points as thot.e given in the above letter written by Mrs. Richardson. i'ENNSYLVANIA.
