WASHINGTON. President Grant’s Message on the Dominican Treaty. The Senate Considering the Sandwich Islands Reciprocity Treaty. The Bill to Encourage American Navi- gation Interests Killed. Discussion of the Bill to Reduce Internal Taxes, The New York Custom House Quarrel. WASHINGTON, May 31, 187! The St. Domingo Treaty Agnin Before ihe Senate—Presidenvs Message on the Treaty. ‘The additional article to tie Dominican treaty, ex- tending the time for the ratification to the 1st of July, Was submitted to the Senate to-day. Accowi- panying the document was a message from the President. ‘The first point treated is the Monroe do = trine, With reference to the West Indies Islands, ie Spanish American rejbics particularly, ana generally tle whole subje tf of American domin- fon on tiis hemisphere. The message char- acterizes the annexation of St. Domingo :s the fiyst movement in the mauguration of the Monroe doctrine, Muca hay bees said on this sub- Sec It his bee agitate’ for years, and particu. larly in late years, since this government has taken @ more conspicuous attiiude before the world, ‘Opportunity oifered by the express desire of St. Domingo to become part of the United States, it is urged, should not be lost, for tt gives at once a peaceable and practfca! solution of the Monroe dy trine and makes it a Axed policy. The me-sa,ce continues by declaring that having the acquisition of St. Domingo open before the government, shouia the Senate refuse to ratify the Monroe doctrine ve- ‘comes a dead letter, and tt would be 4 piece of un. exampled presumtion to say that no other nation ‘shall come in and take possession of or establisi a protectorate over any of the small mdependent ‘States, should they so wish. ‘The government of the Fepublic of St, Domingo is weak and unable to sup- Port itself any longer. It is a fact beyond ques Mon that souve nation wii have to give ita hetping hand, If the United States government reject the offers of the Dominicans the message takes the ground thar we have no right to interfere in any- thing the Domtiuicans might do to transfer their allegiance elsewhere, The message, in this position, clearly sets forth the doctrine and leaves it ty the Senate to decide whether we shall be retrogressive abd retract all that has been said officially and ‘otherwise on the subject of the Monroe doctrine, or Fatify the treaty and take a stand In the maten of events and the realizaiion of 2 great destiny, ‘The message also sets forth the vuine or the isiand im a military and naval aspect. ‘the objections that the island Will be a source of weak- ness ‘1s urged to be without any force from a stra- getic point of view. It fs shown that this wouid be the Key to those two inland waters, the Gulf of Mex- ico and the Caribbean Sea. By guarding these waters ft is explained that instead of waiting for an enemy to come pounding at our very doors he is kept ata distance. Its central position also gives the island a control over all those adjacent, and the presence of the American flag, it 13 also added, wou!d go far towards assuring American citizens of protection in all the petty States, free and dependent, which are ‘to be met with inthe American tropics, Ina com- ‘mer¢ial point of view the message calls atteniion to this important interest. . The message closes by urging the ratification of the treaty, and calls in re- ‘View tne incalcnlable advantages that will inevitably accrue from such a desirable step, The message algo authorizes such amendments to the treaty as it is supposed will cover the principal objections that have hitherto been brought agamst it. The fol'ow- ing is sald to be the additional article of the treaty went In to-day:— Additional article to thb treaty between the Do- minican republic and the United States, of the 29ih of November, 1869, for the annexation of tint re- public to the United Siates;— . pe Whereas, pursuant to the ninth &rticle of the treaty . between the Dominican republic and the United States, of the 29th day of November, 1809, for the annexation of that republic to the United states, it was stipulated that the ratifications of that instrument should be exchanged with- in four months from its date, or sooner, 1f possible; and whereas the said time has ood. er \sut the parties being still desirous tnat the id treaty should be carried into full etfect have determined to extend the time for the exchange of the ratifications aforesaid. For this purpose the President of the United States has conferred full powers on Mumilton Fish, Secretary of gState, and e President’ @f the Domintean re} ublie as con- ferred like powers on Joseph Warren Fabens; nd the sid plenipotentiaries having ex- Changed their f powers, which were found to be in Que form, have agreed upon the following’ additional article:—The ime for exchanging eS ratifications of the treaty be- tween the Dom\nican republic and the Uni Btates, of the 29cm of November, 1869, 18 hereby ex- tended to the 1st \day of July next. In witness ‘whereof. the respec\ tve Plenipotentiaries have signed the present article 49 duplicate and have xed ‘thereto thefr seals, Done at eshington, the 14th day of May, 18; YAMILTON FISH, e “pase JOSEPH WARREN FABENS. As to what will be do ne with the treaty, now that At is urged upon the Se nate again by the President, St is not easy to ascertain’. Careful inquiry does not #how that a.change of on inion has been experienced by any of the Senators \who formerly opposea it, aud yet some of its friends, claim that it has ‘gained strength” and will ultimate 'y be @ success. It seems probable that so soon as the Sandwich Isisnds treaty ls got out of the way m 0 effort will be made to consider St. Domingo. The Sandwich Islands Re ciprocity Treaty— Annexation of the Haw: tlian Kingdom in Prospect. The Senate went into executin ‘session to-day, un- mediately after tne morning hon ', aud took up the reciprocity treaty with the Sand» ‘ich Islands. Mr. Sumner, who is its special champ. 02 in the Senate, proceeded to make an argument i1 ‘ its behalf. He urged that the United States has 1 OW # stronger foothold and a larger interest in the iq lands than any other Power. It should be the policy of the govern- ment Lo cultivate this interest and stre, 1then tt. In his judgment tne effect of the treaty wi ud be to do. this, The Sandwich Istands were the ha '!way house betweon the United States and China; and as the Pacific Ocean was to be our great sea li would be important to nave them as a naval station and as a sort of marine rendezvous. He thowsht the time was. not far distant when these islands would be under the flag of the Unitea States. The only thing that prevented annexation now was the fact that the King of thoge islands wanted? them to remain under hfs government qhile ho lived. His death, which could not be very far distant, wouh’ be the signal for their annexation to the United Staves, The ratification of this treaty would serve to encour- age the good feeliog which already prevatis on the part of the Hawailans towards our government. it ould not, in his judgment, be any injury to our eommerce. The advantages of the treaty were all on avs side. The only production of the islands that could possibly coute into competition with our pro- ductions was sugar, and he did not think that com- petition wouid be of a character to hurt the sugar growing States of the South. Mr. Sumner latd great™..stress on the annexation features of the casd 412d pointed out the fact that the Britishers were anxio,18 to get possession of the islands to strengthen thelr commerce in the Pacific. He also Gescribed at fex'gth the prospective greatness of the trade between t.¢ United States and China, and stiowoed that for tS alone the possession of the Sandwich Islands wold be invaluable tous, The treaty was also advoca'ed by Senators from the Pacific coast.

For the first time since the adoption of the new Tules several Indian treaties were to-day coasiteret Jn open and not in secret session, as heretofore. ‘These included the Miami treaty of 1869, which re lated to an adjustment and not @ cession of anda, ‘They were all rejected, Mr. Lynch’s Bill for the Revival of American Commerce Killed. ‘The main cause of the deteat of Lyncl's bill for the rev.val of American commerce was Lynch him- self, His management of the measure all along was marked by great weakness and bad temper; but to- day he displayed those two defects in a stronger de- gree, if possible, thanever, When the matier came ‘up in the House (nis morning there was a preity fate prospect of success, bat Manager Lynoh jot a severe attack of his tamirums and launched off into petty ittie quarrels with Tom, Dick and Harry, aunost every five minutes, couveriing some friend of the vill Into @ vitter eneoy by ms display of bad temper and Jack ot Judgment.

As I informed yon weeks ago Judge Pier. epout desires to retire trom the District Attor- neysiup, and Congressinan Noah Davis is as likely to get the place a8 anybody else mentioned; but the big pium of al, that which really would constitate a great change—the Collecturstap—appears to be in no immediate danger of chaogicg hauds. Efforts are, of course, being constantly made by influential partiea to compass Mr. Grinnell’s removal, but, as my information goes to-night, they have not yet anovntcd to anything. Mr. Grinnell is reported to be here so'ely to colfer with the President and Secretary Boutwell regarding tne business of his office, and not on any mission of begging to be re- tained in office, as some of the quidnungs repors, The latest in‘ormation, and from very high autho- rity, uk regard to the rumors afioat concerning the New York Collectorship confirm the despatch already sent. Mr. Grinnell comes here simply on matters of business connecied with the Oustom House. There seems to be no truth what- ever in the story that he was calied here because of a contemplated removal by the Prest- dent, and he langhs ct the absurd statement that he ja to be Invited to accept the Naval OMce vice the Cnstom Hou-e, Your correspondent cailed upon the Collector to-night, had a pleasant talk and found the gentleman serene and happy, undisiurbed, ap- parently, by @ single apprehension of 1mpeading evil, Expected Hetirement of Commissioner Wells, Itis stated on ‘high authority that Mr. Commia- sioner Wells, whose term expires on the 30th proximo, will not be reappvinted by the President.

Encouraging re- ports were read from Arkansas, California, Fiori- da, Kansas, Kentucky, Georgia, Maryland, Michi- gan, Missouri, New Jersey and Texas. The report from Texas was especially important, showing that the league was rapidly concentrating the Union men and anticipating important resuits at the coming August election. The financial condition of the League was reported tobe of an encouraging character. The national secretary was instructed to Proceed at once to Kentucky and other parts of the South and Sonthwest on an important political mis- sion. Mr. J.

THE CONGRESSIONAL DEFICIENCY BILL, Mr. MORRILL, (rep.) of Me., Called up the bill for supplying the deficiencies in the appropriations for cowpensation and mileage of the members of the House of Representa.tves, Amendments by the Committee on Appropria- tions appropriating $1,490,000 fur deficiencies in the appropriaiion lor collecting customs duties, and ,ov0 to enable the Secretary of the Treasury to pay special counsel, weie debated. Mr. TRUMBULL, (rep.) of Ill, remarked that the bringing in of dedciency bills mdicated that the show of ecouomy in cutting dowa the appropriation bilis Dad been @ meregpretence. He argued that this deti- cleacy of almost a million and @ half was enormous. The figures showed that the collection of the surplus: revenue for tbe first haif of tho present fiscal year coat seven per cent more than ils collection m the first six montis of the preceding year, The excess of the appro riation asked for t> collect customs revenue for the present year was nearly a million dollars greater than the umount asked for last year. He de-ired to know the reason of the extraor- dinary lacrease, Mr. MORRILL, (rep.) of Vt., sald the Secretary of the Treasury certaimly would not spend one dollar beyond the amount authorized by law. He depre- cated the apparent impeachment of ihe Secretary by the Senator from Illinois, ‘Mr. TRUMBULL said he had the utmost confidence in the Secretary, but desired a satisfactory explana- lion for the large deficieacy to which the attention of the Senate had been called. Mr. MORRILL, (rep.) of Me., stated as a reason assigned by the Secretary of the Treasury for the in- creased expense in collecting the customs that there had been an increase of thirteen or fourteen mill.ons. in the revenue from this source. He had not asked the Secretary to go into details, as he supposed hun to be an honest man. Mr. CassERLY, (Jom.) of Qal., argued that the promises of the Secretary & show increased collec- tions and reduced expenditures nad not been ful- filled. instead of a saving of one million, as ae sented, there was an excess of expenditure of halt a million in the coliection of customs. The amendments of the Committee on Avpropria- ‘Uons Were agreed to and the bill then pas! BILL PASSED OVER THE PRESIDENI’S VETO. The bill for the rellef of Rollin White, returned by the President with his objections, was debated, Mr. SAULSBURY remarking that the message of the President in returning the bill waa in no sense a yeio in the sense intended by the constitution, Mr. CARPENTER, (vep.) of Wis., stated that the veto was based upon the misapprehension that the bill granted a new patent, whereas it only provided for @ new trial. The patent was fora pistol invention. The bill was finally passed over the President’s beers Th by the constituitonal two-thirds vote—yeas . ba Mr. Stewart, (rep.) of Nev., called up the House Joint resolution in relation tu the suspension of the ‘sale of certain lands tn California.

The amendment was rejected—yeas 10, nays 90, ‘The bill then passed. At half-past ten o’clock the Senate adjourned, HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. WaAsHINGTON, May 31, 1870, REVIVAL OF AMERICAN COMMERCE. The House proceeded to the consideration in the morning hour of the bill to revive the navigation and commercial interests of the United States, Mr. L¥NCH, (rep.) of Me., moved the previous ques- tion on the bill, and pending amendments The previous question was seconded and the main question ordered. 4 Mr. LyNo# proceeded to explain the substitute re- ported by the committee and to discuss the amend- ments and some of the objections made to the bill. He dented that the bill was conceived in the inter- est of any class or section. The first meeting of the committce had been held at the Custom House tn New York where slipowners, merchants and ship- builders were,not only permitted, but invited, to be ss and give opinions and make suggestions. ‘ne brgovedings were reported and sent broad- cast over e@ county, The same rule has been followed in Portland. On the facts thus obtained the conclusions in the re- port were based. The oxpoalion to the bill came principally from New York merchants who, during the war, had placed their ships under the Britisn flag; from men who were interested in foreign jeamship lines and from the subsidized agents of the de ship builders. . Woop, (dem.) of N. ¥., in reply to a remark of Mr. Lynch reierring to him, said that he was quite satistied with the substitute, except as to the pro- Viso to the firstsection, which allowed iron manu- facturers to fo, directly to the podite treasury and take money from it and put {ft in their pockets, Heretofore the protectionists had laid the consumers under cantribution for their s; benefit, bi Was an improvement on that Dare!

Mr. SCHENCK threw upon the low tariff men, in- cluding Mr. Cullom, the responsibility for the failure of the Tarttf bill, aud said that if the majority of those desiring to tower the tariff! had siuck by the Com- mittee of Ways and Mean, that bill would have had before this time the sanction of the House, and would have gone to the Seuate. Mr. BUTLER (Of Mass.) said that he had not voted to lay the Tariff till aside uutil the gentleman (Mr. Schenck) had told the House and the country that he had no hope of passing it this session, and he had hoped that the gentleman would then bring ina short bill making a reduction of the tarlit. He had also hoped to have a short internal revenne bitl reported. He would now tell that gentleman that he could not get through the House the pend: long bill any more than the Tarlif bill au its consideration was only 40 much time thrown away. He had hoped to see the income tax abol- ished. He intended to ask the House to tnatract the Committee on Ways and Means to report a short bill for tue reduction oi internal taxes und of tax gath- erers and ofMicials, and for the abolition of inquisi- tions into men’s business. The people did not care so much about the amount they paid as about the manuer in which they bad to pay it, They did not want to be inquired of as to what they had for breakfast and for dinner and what they were going ‘to have for supper. Mr, Scugnck said he had often heard this talk about small bills, but no man could spend any con- siderable time ing the revenue system with- out finding out that it was contradictory and incon- gruous, and that if any of it was interfered with, provision must be made for other parts in con- sequence of th0se changes. This bill was desired by the Department, It was true that there were some eighty-six pi in it, but the delay had not been oc- castoned half as much by the ieee of the bill aa by speeches and interruptions, Rei ‘ing to apn allu- sion by Mr. Butler to Senator Sherman's bill, Mr, Schenck sald that the gentleman spoke unad- visedly about it. The chairman of the Senate Finance Committee had introduced @ bill indicating what taxes he wished crop neat including much of what the pending biil provided, and having had it printed and made @ speech upon it wound up by hte that he did not desire any action upon it until the House bill was disposed of; so that instead of ant mize ing with the House the Senate was waiting for the House bill. Mr, CULLO¥—Does not the gentleman know that the chairman of the Senate Finance Commitiee pro- poses to substitute his bill for this? Mr. ScHENCK-—I do not so understand It, Mr. OULLOM—I do. Mr, SCHRNCK—Then you are mistaken. Mr. MYERS, (rep.) of Pa., declared himseif opposed to the income tax aud in favor of taxing distilleries according to their capacity, but admitted that the pending bill did not admit amendments for those pur to ve offered, r further discussion by Messrs. Judd, Myers and Adams, Mr. Schenck moved the previous ques- don on the first section, The previous question was seconded, cutting off all further amendments, and the House proceeded to consider the second section, whitch permits the purchase by, or for the use of, the United states of any articles free of tax, On motion of Mr. INGERSOLL, and after argument, the section was siricken out, The third and fourth sections, tu reference to special taxes, were passed with a few verbal amend. ments. The Afth section makes provision for the punish- ment of persona subject to special taxes who refuse to exhibit the receipt for the payment of the tax. On motion of Mr, ped (rep.) of Mass., these pro- visions were stricken out and the following subssi- tuted:—"Shall be subject to the same ity as if the tax were unpaid,” ‘The sixth section was passed without amendment, The seventh section was, on motion of Mr. Exa, amended by inserting the 1ollowing:—‘‘And any per- son who shall sell out his spectal business may trans- fer his special tax receipt to his successor, who may oe business without payment of an addi- Sections 8, 9, and 10 were with a few verbal amendments, spin Mr. Cox moved to strike out section 11, taxing passports, which was negatived. The House progressed with the bill as far as sec- tion 16, 41, without adopting any important amendment, The SPRAKER appointed, as a committee to visit West Point, Messrs.

The other for fhe alleged shooting. ‘Long before the trial commenced people from White. stone and the neighboring Villages of Flushing and College Paint begag to arrive and the large hall wag crowded, The first witness called vas Minnie Weaver. The substance of her testimony was the hearing of the cries of Sarah Brush, both on the evening of the alleged shooting and on the previous evening, and the scolding of Sarah, both by Mr. i Mrs, Baliara, on the evening in question and especially hearing Mrs. Baliard catl Saran @ iar.

The cross-ex- amination elicited the fact that Mr. Ballard had punished the child in tne afternoon, but the witness ‘was particular that the punishment was light, and did not hurt the child; ulso said her sitting up stairs i the room with Sarah Brush was unusual. She further staved (which counsel for defence tried strenuously to have overruled) that during the three years Sarah Brush had resided with them she had never been sent to school. The testimony of Mr, Bal- lard was simply a denial of all, except the whipping, which, he said, was a light punishment, ral Brush, the child, who, it is Was cruelly treated, testified, She is a girl about fifteen years of age, very thin and cadaverons, with @ half-frightened look, and evidently was in great fear of Mr. Ballard, She denied tn toto the testimony of Mra, Weaver.
