The centre of the city is like the palm of a
Mind. From it the long lingers stretch out :
one over the mill-dam another along the flats;
the longest of all bridges the rivtr, and then
going on and on, the straight wide street
steadily rising until it overlooks the bay sud
denly bends like the crook of a finger, until

IN SCHOOL DAYS.
I=
Still sits the school-house by the road,
A ragged beggar sunning;
Around it still the sumachs grow,
And blackberry-vines arc running.
Within, the master's desk Is seen,
Deep scarred by raps official ;
The warping floor, the battered seats,
The Jack-knife's carved initial.
The charcoal frescoes on its wall ;
Its door's worn sill betraying,
To feet that, creeping slow to school,
Went storming out to playing!
Long years ago a winter nun
Shone over It at setting;
Lit up its western window-panes,
And low eaves ley fretting.
It touched the tangled golden curls,
And brown eyes full of grieving,
Of one who still her steps delayed
When all the school were leaving.
For near her stood the little boy
Her childish favor singled ;
Ills cap pulled low upon a face
Where pride and liharne were mingled
Pushing with restless feet the snow
To right and left, he lingered:—
As restlessly her tiny hands
The blue-checked apron fingered.
Ile saw her lift her eyes ; he felt
The soft hand's light caressing
And heard the tremble of her voice, •
As if a fault confessing.
" I'm sorry that I spelt the word;
I hate to go above on,
Because—the brown eyes lower fell—
Because, you sec, I love you!"
SOB memory to a gray-haired man
That sweet child-face Is showing,
Dear girl ! the grasses on her grave
have forty years been growing!
'He lives to learn, In life's hard school,
Hose few who pass above him
Lament the trhunpu and his lost,
Like her—because they love him.

began life at Its foot, in the dingy shops and

There is an air of newness, a flavor of Jo

Is a straining after pinnacles and towers and
top knots in architecture—after effects quite
disproportioned to means in landscape gar

crowd to their utmost capacity the present
limited space and time.
This is the foundation built upon the rock
—gold. Another generation will develop the
line arts, and possibly the sciences.
In the "meantime I. will tell my little
story.
Paul Hayes was sent here to preach the
gospel, for there are churches. Some of them,
even, so soon, arc beginning to pride them
selves, not upon their sancity, but upon the
high social Position of their members ;—in
other words, upon the didoorc at which ow.,
social scale.
Fortunately, Paul's church was not among
these. If one has to deal with ignorant peo
ple, it is better to take them in the rough.
Iron in its natural state holds wonderful pos•
sibilities. But iron—spoiled in the smelting
—what can one do with it ?
Ills church was only a mission chapel, sup
ported by a richer society of the same denom
ination ; his people—the men and women to
whom one goes with ungloved hands. But
he was young and strong, and believed him
self called of God, which is the best prepara
tion for any work. He threw aside his hooks
and read men.
There are a lew exceptions to the houses I
have described in the more aristocratic part
of the town. One will suffice to prove the
rule. It stands away from the street, just he•
Iny the staring white hotel that crowns its
rise. It is of square stone, and painted white.

a mansard roof, but the tall Corinthian pillars
still remain, as well as the whole stone steps,
with 1111011 Couchant upon either side.
Vesey Welles stood upon the hearth-rug in
the long, low drawing-room, awaiting the
coming of her guests. Orilinarily she might
be a trifle pale—quiet, possibly—though with
depths quickly stirred by the dropping of a
careless stone. To-night she was flushed,
tremulous, excited.
" By the way," said lice father, pausing at
the door as he passed through the hall, I
met that young minister—Hayes, you know
—this morning, and asked him up to din
ner."
" But I don't know," responded Versey as
he passed on, her eyes growing wider and
wider in dismay " I don't know him at all.
And to-night of all nights 1" she half-sobbed,
pulling at the Bowers in the porcelain vase
before.her, until the one red rose dropped all
its petals at her feet.
It was to be the last of the pleasant evenings
that bad brightened all the winter. Darrel
Winslow and his mother were coming to dine
with them once snore before going home.
They had been boarding at the hotel just
above for two or three months. Vesey had
built so massy hopes upon this evening. But
now—
She was histening a bunch of (hipline—
sweet-scented, velvet-leafed—into her belt,
when Paul entered the room. " Pawing
fair I" he said to himself, at a glimpse of the
bent head.
"The Bev. Paul Hayes!" announced the.
servant. She turned quickly, not catching
the name, hearing only the sound of feet and
the opening of the door. But the Bush upon'
her face was not for him. The maladressa
with which she hesitated and then tunic to
meet him was something strange in Vcsey—
graceful, sell-possessed.
"I—l am Miss. Welles," with rather unne
cessary frankness. "My father will be down
in a moment. Ile was unusually late front
town to-night." The last words were uttered
with her grandest air, in her efforts to compose
herself.
" But haughty and cold," Paul added men
tally, as he turned away to meet her futher.
Then, at lust, Mrs. Winslow and Barre
MEE
"Who the—is this Rau ?" looked out of
Darrel's eyes, us Vesey, grown suddenly shy,
presented hint to Paul, and Paul to Darrel's
mother
" So glad, I'm sure'," murmured Mrs. Win
slow, effusively. "Always delighted to meet
our clergy. Hayes, did' you
. say ? And
'where—"
Veeey interposed, It would never do to
chill the air, already frigid, with theological
differences. Mrs. Winslow was a stanch
churchwoman. Paul, she knew, was of
another faith.
"Let me wheel your chair to the fire.
There—so." She seated herself in triumph.
The gentlemen gathered in a knot at a little
distance.
"And you really go home to-morrow ?"
Vesey said, sitting down beside her."
" Yes. I've done all toy shopping. My
mauve poplin came home today. There is
nothing to wait for now ; and Darrel does
not care to stay. The opera season is over,
you kuow."
So it was for the gayeties of the town he had
lingered week after week, she thought, with
a sudden sinking of the heart. Olt, how blind
she had been f Ills careless laugh came across
the room just then, as if to mock her.
" You'll not come back before another
season ?" She could not hide the pain that
quivered in her voice. But the limp little
woman crushed into the 'depths of the arm
chair by her side did not heed it.
"\o," she replied simply, "I suppose
not."
The gentlemen joined them.
" Sit down here by me," said Mrs. Wins
low • to Paul, motioning to the chair nt her
side.
"It is no use," whispered Vesey to Darrel,
with a hysterical sound but ween a laugh and
sob.
" What is of no use ?" lie followed her ne•ny
from the fire
" Trying to avert grim fate. Your mother
is determined to discuss church affairs with
Mr. i ionnyes. What will she say to find that
he is not its the succession at all ? That he
simply cares for the souls'of our butcher and
baker, and—" •
" Candlestick-maker," suggested Darrel.
" Yes, for aught I know. I have tried to
keep them apart, but—" •
" Extremes will meet. I believe there is an
attraction between the two poles. But whist
does it portend, this invasion ? Are you
Wiout to assume n stuff gown and plain bon
net? Or do yon propose to brirg him into
the true church ? Not n bad addition, I
should say," fixing his eyes upon Paul, who
hail won the respectful attention, at least,
of his rather light-minded audience in the
arm-chair.
"What , were you saying?" Vesey asked
absently. Her eyes had followed his. "How
he chanced to be here? Oh ! father has met
him occasionally, and so asked him to dinner.
I was srry he came to-night.
" Ali ?" Darrel looked down upon her with
a conscious air. She had spoken truer words
than she had intended. She went on, as
though she had not heard him—as though the
color was not flaming in her face.
" Because I knew you would have little in
common, and thought it might be awkward
for us all. It does not matter." Nothing
did or would any more. A gray wall seemed
to shut out all beyond this night.
"But I am not to be defrauded of my rights.
lam to lake you out to dinner, am I not?
You surely wont throw me over at the last
Vesey ?" Ile bent his head close to her
face.
"I don't know ; you can slt upon one side
end Mr. Hayes upon the other, if he will."
She moved away towards the others ; leanlng
over his mother's chair she pretended to his•
ten, smiling assent : to what she never knew.
She was thinking how pleasant she had hoped
it would be, with only Darrel and his mother
here—they four around the tire in the twilight,
Darrel by. her—of the words she had thought
be would speak. There was a ling hanging
ei chain. it fitted her
Ilediad tried it once in jest.
" Vesey I" called 116 r lather. And then she
knew the others were rising—that thinner was
announced
" I hope you and Mrs. Winslow hare be
come friends," she said to Paul, as they were
going out.
" One hardly gets so fax as that inn half
hour's chati" he answered pleasantly.
"And just before dinner," added Darrel,
from the other side. " That's the time to
make enemies, Miss Vesey."
" Then hasten to be served, gentlemen,
lest you quarrel."
" And the cause ?" queried Darrel in her
She turned away from him to Paul. And
yet what should she say ? What do people
say to ministers ? she asked herself helplessly.
And to young ministers above all ? Oh if he
had not come ! If he would only go ! If they
would all go, and leave her shine with her
disappointment and shame !
How she passed that lung dinner hour she
never knew. She talked of trivial things, us
we all do, though beneath the outward calm
our very souls are seething. She dared not
speak of others, lest she break this crust. Paul
Judged her. She has found her lowest depth,
he said, when she chanced to name a ribbon.
Her spirit rose ; buoyed by her light words
and laugh perhaps. When they were back in
the drawing-room, and the others fell into the
quiet, desultory chat that follows a dinner,
she - alone could 'not be still. Her cold hands
refused to lie quietly in her lap, as shapely
white hands should. Iler feet beat an impa
tient waltz under her gown. Site glanced at
Darrel. lle had thrown himself back in an
easy-chair, his hands under his head. There
was no feverish glitter in his eye. lle looked
simply bored. Ile yawned furtively. e
pushed her chair back; "flow stupid we
are IWs the tire, I think. It always dulls
everybody but itself. Will not some one sing
or play ?" And she sat down herself before
the piano.
Site struck a quick sharp cord. " I could
dance to-night !" She had forgotten the young
minister and his probable prejudices. ,

intense face. But in tin instant, with the
Minor chord that followed, it changed. Tears
rushed into her • eyes: "If I hadn't lost my
slippers," she breathed to herself. 11cr back
i was to the others. Only Paul saw the sudden
sinithming of the face, the lad of the wet eye-
lids.
"Such wonderful spirits!" exclaimed Mrs.
Winslow. "So lightMemted Vcsey always
Alt I" responded Paul. But he MI Into
a revery.
Darrel leaned over her. " What has conic
to you ?"
" How ? Why ?" She did not pause iu her
playing.
• t' You're simply glorious now. You hardly
need u crown."
11cr hands went wrong. A quick plash—a
discord—then she went on. She was growing
strong ; equal to the strife. There is nothing
so deathless as a Woman's pride. It had risen
at last. llcr hands flashed over the keys
tidowing off sparks of the wildest, gayest
music.
" Not that !" Darrel whispered. " Play ,
something soft and low. Bo you forget it is
our last evening ? You're not sorry alter all,
then!" for her face never changed. She
laughed—a low quiet ripple in her threat.
" Sorry ? Oh yes ;" lingering over the last
word. And still her hands toyed with the
keys. " But one can't cry at bidding, you
know ; I dare say .I may todnorrow." And
again the low laugh swelled up In her throat.
She looked up fearlessly. It had been all
husks she knew now. But at least he should
' not triumph in her shanie. She had worn her
heart upon her sleeve ;'but though it bled he
should not know it. She might indeed cry
tomorrow, but not now.
As for the man, ho experienced a new sen
sation—of doubt, mingled with amazement.
Ile hail read her, ns he thought, like an open
book. lie even fancied he bad cattle leaves.
"poor little t, !" he hnd a,.i 1 to himself,
"I really must go away. She is certainly
growing fond of me." lie almost wished now

a sequel to the book. Ile was tempted to fall
in love with her upon the spot. "If she is
acting, she's by for more clever titan I thought;
and if she Is really indifferent, I've been a
conceited fool,"
" Good-night ! and good. bye, it must be,"
he said, detaining her hand when they sop.
ranted. We shall take the early train.'!
The Bush had died out of her face. She
looked worn and tired. Upon the whole he
was not sorry he had decided to go.
"Good-bye," she said quietly.
" You'll come and Make us that visit in the
summer, Vesey ? Oh, my gloves and my veil I
thank you," began Mrs. Winslow, fussily.
" I don't know. Perhaps so."
" Of course you will."
"To be sure," added Darrel. "I shall
come for you myself."
They were gone at !nst. She turned away.
" But Mr, haves ! Vesey !"
•
She had forgotten his existence.
" I'm afraid I sin rude." And she put out
her hand. " Good•night ; but indeed I may
confess now that I have a wretched headache,
and—and—" That was all she said. The
play was over.
The spring and early slimmer wore away.
One letter came from Darrel. A letter such as
he might have sent to any chance acquaint
ance, full of hints of * gay doings here and there
—nothing more. One little note Vesey wrote
his mother, to any she could not niaka.the
promised visit. Darrel had said nothing in
his letter of coming for her. " And tell Dar
rel"—nt the close of her note—" that I am
saving any amount of gossip against writing
him some day." But the " some day" never
came. Absence, like a strong light, brings
out hidden defects, and Vesey knew now that
lie was a man selfish and vain, who had played
with her heart.' He had held it in his hands,
weighed and measured it and her, and had
cast both aside as worthless. :lie thought of
it w ith burning cheeks.
Among the mountains, In the summer, she
gathered strength and life again ; for both had
seemed to fall. Perhaps it was the heat. The
summer had opened like the tropics. With,
sooner winter came the Winstows. If she
had dreaded it, it she had feared for herself,
would it have been strange ? But the spell
was broken. Looking ?Lick, she wondered.
Outwardly the old intimacy was renewed.
Darrel came and went as be had come and
gone the year before. But to Vesey it was
only a shell—a hollow, heartless thing that
never had been friendship, and could never
now be love. Paul plodding along. day after
day in the round of his duties, saw—as though
a groat ways off—Vesey and Darrel flying up
and down the icy streets to the tinkle of silver
bolls.
One night, Vesey, glowing in crimson,with
chrysanthemums in her hair, passed through
the hall. The outer door was open wide.
Patti stood outside. The 'Wiad, raw and wet
with the breath of the someaught at her hair—
at the silken ruffles of her dress.
"Oh, is it you ? But you arc coming in ?"
She little knew how her words tempted him
—how the vision tempted him, as she paused
with clasped hands under the gaslight, and
with the warm, bright room beyond.
" I cannot, I ant waiting for you father

The words choked him. '. Thank you, not
to-night," he said. He had longed to meet
her again, like this—alone and face to face.
But her light manner, her dainty dress, an
gered him to night. lle had come from such
a different scene. Only a woman of the world,
after all, he thought. And yet so sweet, BO
bitterly sweet, he owned when he had turned
away and plunged into the cold and darkness.
Darrel was waiting for her in the drawing-
room.
`You're like a poem to-night, in all that
ruby-red—like an Eastern song."
"Thank you," Vesey said, dreamily.
I couldn't Imagine you in gray," he went
on, half to himself, " or in anything somber,
or worn, or poor." Ile had begun' to study
the girl in earnest now. "Yes, you are made
for the rarest and best, Vesey ; to shine in
satin and diamonds.''
Satin and diamonds! Vesey remembered
the man she ha•l left at the door. Ile was out
in the winter night among the hungry and
naked now, she knew. She had caught his
half-uttered sentence. And he was made for
satin and diamonds
"Is that alt.!" she asked wistfully.'
" All ? Is not that enough? It would sat-
isry av,,st women."
But to-night it did not satisfy her
Down at the brgiuning of the long street
was a black, low•browed house, like many
others here, with a shop in the lower story,
or, more properly, two, since one window
Was occupied by a watchmaker, and the other
displayed pins, needles, spools of cotton, and
such small wares. Above were two or three
rooms with slanting sides, where a deformed
girl—a pitiful object to look at—lived with
her mother, earning enough by sewing to put
bread into their mouths and scanty covering
upon their backs—no more. Vesey employed
tliem: from pity mostly, since her work
could be better done elsewhere. She stepped
out of the sleigh here at dusk one night, and
ran up the stairs, a roll of work in her hand.
She had to wait a moment, so she sat and
bilked with the girl, who was young like her
self, and yet not like herself at all. It made
her happier in the happy lot that had some
times wearied her. It made her thankful for
her strong, young life,. which she had never
named anion 4 her blessings, and it shot a
gleam or pleasure through the girl's dark
days.
• It was a poor room, with paper torn and
soiled, antl,4 many patterns, upon the walls ;
with the bare boards of the floor yawning,
rising and falling uneasily ; with the dim light
struggling through uncurtained windows that
peered from. limier the eaves like eyes over
hanging brows. In one of these windows, a
forlorn canary in a broken cage—a brown
little bird with ruffled, unkempt feathers-7
chirruped feebly, like a moan. A. low voice
in a continuous murmur fell upon Vesey's.
ear. It seemed to come from the next room.
" What is that ?"
, "r hat'm?" The girl's pale face grew bright.
" It's thq minister, Mr. Hayes. He comes
and prays with mother, now she's .sick."
The light died down again.
The little room became all at once like a
church, solemn and still, as the low voice
rolled on and on, like a river far away. The
girl laid down her work. Even the bird for
got its moan.
The voice ceased.
She heard his step upon the stairs. It was
but a second ; he could not have reached the
street, when a shriek came front'the room ho
had left. The girl sat like .one paralyzed.
Vesey threw open the door. A. swift line of
light ran all adown the bed. It buret Into a
flame, in the midst of which the sick woman
struggled. The overturned candle at her head
told the story. It was an instinct—there was
no [line for thought—which made Vesey drag
the square of carpet from the floor and press
It down upon the flames. Tliey shot Out Into
her face. They seemed to catch away her
breath. They licked her arm. They strove
and fought, and well nigh overcame—all in an
instant, that seemed hours to the girl, who
threw herself upon the bed, smothering the
flames with her own weight.
They were conquered at last. The silent,
breathless struggle was over.
'• If some ono would only bring a light I
Oh dear I what shall I do ? Don't," to the de
formed girl, who shrieked and called upon her
mother. Vcsey had not heard the strong
step, springing up the stairs—the opening of
the door. Borne one stood beside her in a
moment, lamp in hand. It was Paul.
"Is she dead ?" gasped 'Vesey, shrinking
from the bed.
Ile threw back the scorched blanket that
hid the motionless form. "No, not dead:
but I think she has fainted. Or the flames—
I must go for a doctor. Stay hear, if you are
not afraid. Oh hush 1 hush I" to, the fright
ened girl ;"it Is nothing, I hope. Get some
water for the lady ; and sprinkle her face," he
said to Vesey. Then ho was gone.
She did as he had told her,—walting,
watching the blackened mass, she dared not
touch. It was frightful, with that still, white
face shining out of the darkness. Was it
death ? No : there was a faint quivering of the
eyeltds—that first sign of returning conscious
ness—a feeble moan. Then Paul came. Oh
the rush of joy, of blinding tears, of sudden
faintness, that overpowered her when she
heard his step. The grim.faced doctor be
hind him walked straight to the bed.
"There are no deep burns, I think," he
said at length. "The blanket saved her.
The shock has done more than the fire. A
sponge—all, that will do. Now some cater
and some linen rags." There were none.
Vesey quietly held out her handkerchief,
" I'm
.!" lie said, and tore his own into strips.
" And now you?" He turned to Vesey.
" I have no burns." Indeed she felt no pain.
The doctor raised her hand, and held It out
to Paul. The sleeve was'eut away from her
wrist as by a jack knife with a blackened
edge. The flesh was like a flame. Paul's
teeth shut tight and quick together. Some
thing sprang into his eyes— not tears alone.
Then Vesey began to tremble; and, con
scious ut last of the cruel pain that bit and
tore her hand, she sobbed like a hurt child.
"Don't mind," sho tried to say. "Don't
look at me. It's only-- only—" The sobs
swept all her words away.
Paul bathed her hand. She remembered
afterwards how tenderer than any woman's
had been his touch.
"Let her cry," said the doctor, In a voice
that must have been given by mistake to the
grim face. " And now she'd better go home."
Ile rose from the bed. rle took the unhnrm•
ed hand in his.
"She's a brave girl." Ile looked away
rout her to Paul ; but still he held her. hand
tight in his. "God bless you, child. Now
go home and go to bed."
Paul lifted her into the sleigh and wrapped
the robes about her.
"Shall I go with you ?"
"If I can take you home."
"Oh no; I must go in here again."
"Then you need not."
It seemed suddenly as if they bad known
each other a lifetime—Ma and Paul; as if they
could never be strangers to each other again.
She held out her hand. It was the one he
bad bound up. in took it tenderly in both
his own. " The brave, strong hand !" he
said, bending over it in the darkness—" the
hand that saved a life to-night." '
the poor. It opened the next evetiini.The
winter had been hard and cruel, and charity
somewhat exhausted—needed a spur.
Vesey had promised to tend a booth.
" You must not think of going," her father
exclaimed. Darrel, too, who foresaw a quiet
hour with her alone if she remained at home.
He had something to tell—something to ask
for, and a ring to give. Alas for him I Be
had kept his words too long. A year ago they
would have been manna to her heart.
"But I am quite well," she pleaded, "ex
cept my baud, and that has ceased to pain
me." Indeed her face was radiant.
So she dressed herself with quaint sim
plicity in something soft and gray that
wrapped her like a cloud, with only the braids
of her heavy hair for ornament ; only her
shining eyes for gems. Then she went and
took her place.
The maidens from the Chinese pagodas
were all there. Before them, In their gay
attire, the Queen of Sheba, and even Solomon
the magnificent, would have shrunk away
abashed—their glory dimmed.
Vesey's nun-like dress was worse than dia
monds iu their envious eyes. More gay gal
lants than one paused to stare—to buy.
" It cools your eyes, you see, and rests you
sonic way," vouchsafed one by way of expla
nation.
The evening was half over. Darrel had
been her shadow. She was tired ; tired of
his eyes that followed her whichever way she
turned ; tired of his flattering words ; tired 'of
nim. Be moved away at last. Then, and
not until then, she saw Paul. All the maid
ens plumed their gay feathers as he walked
down the hall. But he came straight to her.
"'Are you well enough to be hero?" with
out a word of greeting, as though they had
not parted. "You frightened me with your
white face just now."
"I was tired. I wanted to go home."
" Will you go now ?" he asked quickly.
" Are you strong enough to walk ?"
"
"Then come."
It was strangely pleasant to be bidden ; to
follow , meekly.
They had reached the stairs descending to
the street when they met Darrel Winslow.
"Vesey 1 where are you going ?" Ile
scowled and nodded at Paul.
" Home."
"But it is beginning to rain, and you have
no cloak. Go back and I'll get the carriage."
He laid his hand upon the wrap over Paul's
arm. Paul looked at Vesey. What did he
read in his face? ,
"Let Miss Welles decide," lie said, in a,
hard, strange voice. Ho was trying to be
calm—to keep his bands from this man who
had suddenly come between them. He turned
to Vent/ again. His face was very pale ; his
eyes were full of pleading. "Think a mo
ment. Will you ride with him, or will you
walk with me ?"
She did not speak. She only smiled and
laid her hand within his arm.
He would have been more than human to
have kept back the triumph in his eyes.
Darrel stared ; then wheeled and left them,
with an oath upon his lips.
" But think a moment." Paul's voice grew
more gentle now. "It will be a long, long
road—n road that has no turn."
But still she smiled.
" Arough way, perhaps, and your feet aro
tender."
"I will walk with you," she said.

TILE SAN DOMINGO REPORT.
Col. McMichael foreshadows what the report
of the Commissioners will be on the subject
of annexation, from which we quote :—The
Commissioners did not, of course, express an
opinion, but their report of facts was so fa
vorable that he felt justified in asserting that
their conclusion was also. The feeling among
the journalists when he left was that the Com
missioners were all in favor of annexation.
He had conversed with Fred. Douglass just
before leaving, who authorized him to say
that he, Douglass, was in favor of annexation.
General Sigel was on an expedition when the
Tybee sailed, hut had expressed himself in
this direction. Nothing that would transpire,
the speaker believed, was likely to change the
present views of the Commissioners. They
were going to hear what Cabral and the
Ilaytiens had to say. For his part, if we
wanted to consult guerrillas, he would prefer
the views of a live American—one like Moseby,
to so feeble a Recimen as Cabral, who does
not rise to the' dignity of a good bushwhacker.
If we are going to base our opinion on what
Hayti thinks, with an assassin at its head,
why not send also to the Sandwich Islands to
know whether they would like it, or Inquire
of the mighty empire of Monaca whether the
United States has a right to elevate a feeble
people and enrich Its own. Not possessing
the profound intelect of Mark Twain, who
says he has so much mind that it sometimes
takes him a month to snake it up, he had
agreed with Senator Wade that the case was
ready for the jury, and if his friends desire,
he was, like Mr. Wade, ready to make a
preliminary report. Admitting a difference
of opinion upmkhe general question, wo all
want information upon the following points,
on which he is satisfied, after the full and
penetrating investigation to which this affair
has been subjected by the officials and cone
s mndents.
First. No United States Government official
is interested in any way in any lands, mines,
contracts; bonds of property of any kind
whatever in the republic of Santo Domingo.
Second. Its soil is at least as fertile as Cuba,
and'Cubans themselves, in view of annexation,
are bringing capital to Invest there. They
say the laud is better and fresher, and want
to live under a stable government. The mines
are rich but undeveloped.
Third. The people arc intelligent, although
uneducated ; for thty know enough to be
largely In favor of annexation. They have
no slavery to unlit them for freedom, and no
government whose advantages they can con
trast with ours after we become their rulers.
They are too shrewd to be swindled and too
bravo to be oppressed. Hour officials attempt
to plunder them they will be exposed, If they
venture to oppress they will be resisted. We
must rule Santo Domingo by the law, and
not by the sword.
Fourth. While we were there the weather
was a mild edition of the American autumn.
The hardest working and best informed man
we met is an American, who has been there
sonic years, and never been sick ; but the or
dinary settler would no doubt be exposed to
the dangers of climatic transition. An im
prudent man going west is apt to shake with
a chill, there he might be prostrated by a fever.
Fifth. The Bay of Samana is worth two.
million dollars, which would pay off the debt,
leaving the public land over. Say this is one
fourth of the republic, or 3,250,000 acres (the
whole area being 22,000 square miles), and
averaging it at fifty cents an acre, the new
concern would start with a clear capital of
$1,760,000. The population is now only 120,-
'airche[Z7 "ViTiOse . ,i , ria l ‘k t lin t erd udy zsinln
lots had better hurry, or the people of the
neighboring islands will get the start of them.
These alone will double the population. An
impoverished Frenchman, who is used to a
similar climate, would rather go to Santo Do
mingo, and make money for himself, than stay
at home to pay it in taxes to the Prussians.
Ills countrymen who are already on this island
aro writing to him about it, reminding him
bow rich were the French planters of Hayti,
whom slavery drove out, and suggesting that
if lie gets tired, in a few years he can go back
to Paris with enough to be comfortable. The
speaker left a prosperous Yankee down there,
who came down on the Tybee to look, and
stayed to speculate, who thinks that mahogany
forests, even at twenty dollars an acre, "would
pay first rate." He will risk the fever. May
be sonic more of his people might do the same,
Where there is certain wealth there will be
rapid emigration.
SEEING IS BELIEVING.—A notorious scamp
was once brought before an Onandagajustica
of the peade. He was accused of having
"come the strap game" over a native. The
portly justice, wishing to
: decide understand
ingly, asked to see a sample of his skill. "The
party" instantly produced a leather strap,
gave it a scientific whisk across the tlble, and
remarked :
"You see, judge, the quarter under the
strap ?"
" What I" interrupted the dignified func
tionary, "do you mean to say there is a quar
ter under there ?"
" Sartin I" was the reply.
"No such tiling," said the justice.
" I'll go you a dollar on it," exclaimed the
prison c r.
" Agreed I" said the justice.
With accustomed adroitness the strap was
withdrawn, when lo ! there was the quarter.
" Well," said the astonished Shallow, " I
should not have believed it if I had not neon
it with my own eyes. Nero is your dollar,
and you are fined five dollars for gambling,
contrary to the statute In such case made and
provided."
The elongated countenance of the gambler
required no additional evidence to testify his
appreciation of " the sell."
The extent to which snobbery can go in
England is shown by the fact that recently a
poor carrier, overtaken by an accident, and
likely to die, after many hours of exposure,
was refused admission to au inn because Lord
Mostyn was there, and actually did die in con•
sequence.
Captain hall has nearly completed his ar
rangements for the North Sea expedition, an.
will start as soon as spring has far enough ad
vanced. Ile will go now with scientific as
sistants, whose reports must be of great vain ,
to the world ; and w•e believe ho is also to b
accompanied by some one who will act as
hi
Secretary and historian of the expedition.
"To-Let" cards, it is said, were never
numerous In New York city than In presen.
Although thus far there has been no gre,
reduction in rents, by the first of May—"mo •
lug day" there—a very considerable dccli
is looked for. In Brooklyn, also, there a
plenty of houses to rent, and It is claimed th ,
there are five hundred tenements for sale
that city.
" Pure Orange county mtlk" is said to •
prepared for the New York market In t
way: The dealers receive forty cans of ml
a day, twenty-seved or twenty-eight cans
which they' skim, and they mix the whole
getter. This they color with a sort of tas
'less refuse from the sugar refinery,
gives the misiure a thick creamy appearrui
It Is then sent to Now York and sold for p
milk. They get six cans of cream, worth
dollars a can, from forty cans of milk.
