Judxing from the history the past, ot convinced it would be a useless conquest, unless & fargo Furopean immigration could be coaxed to fettie there, Never while the sun shines will the Dominicans be induced to develop the resources of their country by voluntary labor.

In former letters I have endeavored to prove that if the revolution in St, Domingo was really confined to the one province of Ciboa, it had no chance of success, This Ithiuk is undeniable. But “if it should appear that it was spreading rapidly, those chances are natu- rally ipereased. That euch is the caso is now unquestionable, Not only bas it spread beyond the limits of its cradle, Cibao, where it certainly was at first confined, but, since the beginning of the prosent month, hag assumed such proportions that it may now be said the entire country is in a blaze. It is extremely difficult to get not simply details but leading facts, nor do tho newspapers as yet aamit the whole truth. We know, however, enough through such sources to warrant us in believing that the tosurrection is spreading, for we bave in the first place the pro- clamation of the Captain General, Don Felipe Rivero of Lemoyne, declaring tho blockade of the entire coast, in the preamble to which he states that “several pro vinces of the Spanish part of the Island of St. Domingo have ceclared themselves in rebellion, &e.”’ In the next place, we bave tho very important news that the town of Puerto Plata has been completely desttoyed. At first woe were told the suburbs had been burned. We now know not a single building remains. ‘Through private sources, I learn that @ day or two af- ter the Insargoints wore defeated near the town ¢f Azua, they retnrmed, attacked tho garrison unawares and gained signal advantages, even capturing some artillery. It is also asserted, on what I believe to be good authority, that St. Domingo city is ripe for revolt, with the proba. bility that by this time it has risen against the Spanieh rule. Our latest dates from the eapital are to the 9th inst. Drought to Sintiago de Cubs by the war steamer Velasco, but a titbe of the news will never be known. Jn the at tack on Puerto Plata the insurgents had thirry killed, and best six or seven in prisoners, among thom an officer. Spanish lors not rtated. to the number of twelve or fifteen hundred, are posted in an entrenched camp, fortried with twelve pieces of cannon. Consider jug that the jusurgents succeeded in their dosiga, which was tho destruction of the town, thoir loss has beea vory insignificant, while they probably inflicted equally as hea~y « one on their enemies. The new Captain General of St Domingo arrived in Pu- erto Rico from Spain on the 16th inst, whence he pro- ceeded on the 18th to take charge of his onerous office. This officer is General Don Carlos Vargas, the same who left Havana in the Spanish expedi- tion to Vera Cruz, as second in command to Gevera! Gassett, and is one of these most distinguished for their gallantry in the Moroeco war. His predecessor, General Rivero, who will not I am sure ory salt teara at his removal, is to return to Madrid to occupy a high post. ‘The insurgents had sent a flag of troce to the Spaniards at Puerto Piata, asking for medicines and provisions for the sick and wounded who fell into their bands at San tiago, and who were receiving every care and attention at their bands, This fact is additiodal proof that the to surrection is well organized and led, and gives us reason to hope that the war will be conducted humanely.

From Venezuela we loarn that the troops of Falcon at- tacked Puerto Cubello successfully and oecupied the town on the Sth iugt., the discomftted garrison taking refuge on board thoir tieet aud making off to Cudad Bolivar. This is highly important. We should now very much like to know if the escaped garrison wil! be ihe nucleus for another army opposed to Falcon, and if the civil war is to break out as bad as ever.
