Special advices from St. Domingo city, of the 9th of June, informs us of the complete triumph of the revolution under General Pi- mental, and the departure of ex-President Baez, with some members of nis saite, for Thomas.

Bat for the protection of the flag, at is said, his itfe woul. bave been sacrificed. His brother, Da- mian Baez, and General Guillermo, were held for trial as incendiaries by the provisional government.

A gentie- man from Pennsylvania, who has had great experience as a rectifier and dealer in coal oil, was at Mr. Hardesty’s place a week ago, and pronounced the indications very good. He stated thatit would take about two thousand dollars, nm the hands ofan experienced opera- tor, to test the question; but whether any ar- rangements for this purpose have been made, we bave not keard. Whether this off arises always from bitumi- hous cosl, or whether nature has provided other modes of producing it, is still a question in the minds of many intelligent and well in- formed men. If it arises from con] alone, we would mention one fact bearing on the ques- tion, which might make it possible to be tound in this neighborhood.
