Mr. Eviror—We sailed from New York on the 25th of June, and arrived off San Domingo on the evening of the 16th of July, having had remark- able fine weather during the entire passage out The arrival of an American man-of-war caused some surprise among the natives, there having been no American national vessel there since the visit of the Colorado more than 18 months ago. On the IMth. out Consul, Mr. Elliott, came on board and was received with the usual saute. He was accompanied by Gen. Cazenove, who isa See agent of our Government; he is sanguine an early settlement of the difficuities which The principal canse of delay being the confused state of affairs following the long sickness and fiua! death of the Minister of Instructions, whose burial took place the day ptevious to our arrival. Of the city itself 1 will say little, as ali are doubtless aware of the historical’ facts connected with it; and like most of the cities founded by the Spaniards in Ameri- ca, is fast going to decay. with nothing left but the tottering walls of its once splendid buildings. Our Government is the only one represented there at ent, the English and Frencl Consuls having batletl down their colors sometiine since and left. The positive cause I could not learn, though there are hints of an attempted speculation in Dominican currency, which failing, caused dissutisfaction, and finally retirement; the course zdopted by them is a source of general condem- nation. In the river, directly oppesite the city. there is one of John Bull’s ‘eruisers lying at an- chor, the commander of which paid us a visit immediately upon dropping anchor. She is called the Skipjack, and carries four guns. On the 20th of July an American brig, the Helen Jane. twenty days out from New York. eaie in with a cargo of flour and liquors. Col.

The Colonel is the agent of certain partics ‘capitalista) of New York for the purchase of a arge tract of land located in the southern portion of the island, said to contain that much-coveted article—gold. The price agreed upon {x consid- erable; and when negotiations are concluded it is his intention to transport from the United States a jarge number of workmen. 1 wish them great suecess in their undertaking. I ain sure the Colonel will keep an eye upon matters in general. We left San Domingo on the 3ist for Aspinwall. arriving onthe morning of the Sth of August. ‘There we found, besides the Roanoke, the sloop- of-war St. Louis; also, an English steamer, which sailed on the 1ith for Carthagenia, and on the 13th the St. Louis left for the same place Almost at thesame time the Preble was signalized off the harbor, and the next day came to sachor near us. It is not known -how leng we will remain bere. 28 orders have not yet been received in regard to our future destination. Weere anxiously waiting the coming of the steamer with dispatches for us; for there is not much pleasure here at this sengon of the year, when we have rain every day jn the week and Sunday. too.
