Ls . Water for vessels ef average tonnage. cal plans. We were all soon engaged discussing the prospects of the settlement, and this wae about the first opportunity of which I avatied myself to Dave a long talk with the gentlemem concernea more or less in carrying ont the enterprise. ‘THE BITR FOR THE TOWN, _ ‘what are you all doing around here?” I asked ef Captain Samuels. “Well,” said he, “we have Jost come from laying out the site for a hotel on she eminence yonder ;” and then the Captain, 100k- ing around him with the air of one who was on na- tive and familiar soil, and to whom every square ef tand was as well known as the roome of his resi- ence, pointed with his cigar and ceutinued, ‘This Jand here we shall level for the site of a town and ran aroad right through to that cove. We will Place the town where the trade wind, land and sea Breezes will be constantly passing over it. That low land to the leit of you we pro- pose to raise and drain in some places. Sverything will be done towards securing sani- tary advantages for the settlement. The town of Santa Barbara is to be drained and guttered, and ail modern improvements introduced. Looking down the bay to your right trom the hotel runs a reef, extending one mile in an east-southeast @irection, over which there is water from one to five feet indepth. This reef is from five hundred to seven hundred feet, and there right on it you observe the Bannister islets, about fifty feet in eight, composed of red clay and gravel, which will be used as filling stuff, and im that way fotning the reef te the matniand, thereby Making @. jetty 500 feet wide, one mile (~ length and with wharf accommodation an both sides. The basin formed by this impreve- ment will be half a mile wide and a mile in depth, with a draught of water varying from fourteen to forty-three feet, giving vesseis alongside the jetty from sixteen to twenty-cight feet of water. At.one edge of the tewn of Santa Barbara is a magnificent atream of water—the Aquado—which comes down from the mountains in suficient quantity to supply the necessities of 300,000 people. Beyond the month of the basin you observe the Levaptados, having a reef extending from them across the mouth of the great bay, joining the mainland and forming a nat- urai breakwater, leaving the mouth of the entrance between the Levantados and the Peninsula three- quarters.of a mile wide, and nine iathoms of water free of all opstructions, easy of navigation night and day by the greatest atranger, WHAT MR. HALSEY PROPOSES TO DO, ‘The Captain having furnished this much informa- tion I turned to inquire what was Mr. Halsey’s par- ticular business, and that gentleman said:—“We Propose first te examine the Yuna River, which @rops into the other end of the bay, to clear it of all obstructions and give it a sufficient depth of From the head of navigation we propose to commence at once and cut a wagon road to Santiago, and in that drain the trade of the La Vega valley down to Samana, the distance from Santiago to Samana being less than from Samana to Porto Plata. We then intend to investigate ‘the Pine district, and either put up sawmills there or float the logs down and manufacture a)l the lumber we need for our own purposes. Then we intend to improve and widen the road throagh the Peninsula, making a splendid drive from east to west. We hope to have stcamboats on the Yuna in time to move the tobacce down to the bay for shipment.” GOLD FIELDS AND COAL DEPOSITS, Mr. Oley said his part of the business was to in- vestigate the gold flelds, prospect the coal deposits sald te exist, ascertain the extent of the deposits and the facilities for werking them. He should be fable to prove there was goid in the country, but of course he could not venture to say in what quan- tities. Captian Plumner’s share of work would consist in taking soundings of the bay and river and doing other engineering business. ‘These four gentlemen represented the working force of the company, and they are individually men of expe- rience and ability. We left several of our emigrants in Samana, and of course the Harlem carpenters. Then, in the early morning, we left for St. Domingo City. How the Churchmen Regard the Change—The Way the Vote Was Taken. Sr. DoMINGoO Crry, Feb. 15, 1873, On our arrival at this, one of the most ancient of tities this side of the Atlantic, we found the government of Baez had just completed the count- Ing of the vote for the ratification of the renting of Samana Bay. As I predicted, there were but few dissentient votes, just 19 ont of a total of 20,900, The Tybee takes with her copies of the deed of rental and the proclamation of tne President declaring the transfer. As I said before, there was no need for the taking of the vote, The people are decidedly in favor of the transfer, but even if they chanced to be otherwise dispesed the voting would never reveal it, for, I repeat, it is 9 farce just as much ag voting was in New York in the days of the Tam- many Ring. I called to see the oiicers of the gov- ernment at the Palace, but failed to see Baez, who, I suspect, was conveniently sick and invitatingly disposed to the HeraLp commissioner, However, Thad quite along talk with Gautier, Minister of Btate; Delmonte, Minister of War, and Curiel, Minister of Finance. At the same interview I met Padre Zamoyas, of Santiago de los Cavelleros, and as Iwas curious to ascertain what way the Cathelic priesthood were inclined im the matter of annexa- tion or the selling of territory to Americans, lasked the padre the feeling among his brethren, He said there were seven priests of his acquaintance in favor and two opposed, This, I apprehend, judg- ing from what 1 have seen and learned, is about the proportion in the ranks of the clergy. Minister Gautier looked as wise as an owl and as amiable as ® bear. He said they (the government) weie Jaboring hard for the good of the couutry; that ae Dominicans and as honest men they were not Ukely to urge forward anytiiing that would be of injury to the people or that might be likely te in- flict @ blow upom the integrity and prosperity of the country. He (Gautier) was pained to see that everything done by the government or St. Domingo was tortured so by a portion of the press of the United States as to make it appear there was nothing but intrigue and dishonesty in the af- fairs of the Dominican government. He contended they ought be allowed credit for meaning as well fer their own country as the oficial representa- tives of any other nation. “How has this vote on the ratification of the transfer been taken ?’’ I in- quired. TAKING THE SENSE OF THE NATION. ‘The Minister answered :—‘“Our system of voting is | different from yours. In this instance it has occu- pied about a month to take the sense of the na- tion, but we have a larger vote recorded in favor of the policy of the government than cver was known before. There were only 4,000 votes given for Spanish annexation in 1861, and on the question of annexation to America 16,500, In the matter of Samana Bay the vote exceeds 20,000, and if the fall returns were in would swell that number to 22,000. Esch province and distriet is subdivided into communes and communes into sections. In each section @ book is kept by the cemmandante, con- tajming the names of ail legal voters. To each ef these a notice is sent of the question to be voted Upon, and the people are requested to come up and record themselves for or against. Owing to the ‘want of communication in the islamd and other ob- vious causes, such a6 business, apathy, &o., the books have to be kept open for many weeks before the sense ofall the voters is secured. Thus you see we Cannot have a full and proper poil of the people, as you do, in a single day.” “But has not every voter to put himself on record as in favor ef the government measure, or suffer in consequence?’ PARTY TERRORISM UNKNOWN. “That is an entirely false comception. 1 will ad- mit there is a good deal of voting done without Proper appreciation of the question at issue; but you must acknowledge that the very same thing is Just as extensively committed in America. Do not igmorance and prejudice, by the exercise of the fran , Show in an equally bad light among yourselves ? The terrorism ef party is unknown to @s. We are all on one side, and it is our earnest effort to better the condition of the people and the country, We are extremely poor. We have had nothing but commotion among us for years, but our people are extremely amenable $@ good impressions, They learn the mood easily. __NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, MARCH 3, 1873—TRIPLE SHEET. ‘Their vices are small and tew. ‘They are gentle and tractable, and they beve infinitely more common senso than, they are credited with. They knew much more of this question of the renta? of Samana Bay to an American company than you might be- lieve. They understood what annexation was, and they are capable of appreciating the difference be- tween the two when it is told them. In the one instance they would lose their distinctive natton- ality; in the other they preserve it, while securing for themselves many material blessings ta the bar- gain.” “Is there any understanding tn this transaction that the island ie ulttmately to odme under the flag of the United States?” “Sone whatever, From time to time many such enterprises as this at Samana have occupied our attention, There were the Land Improvement Company, the Geological Survey and Exploration Company, the Funkhausen Concession, and tne French Mining Company of St. Demingo. None of these are now in the fiela. Tho Samana Bay Company have substituted themsel for all, bought up all previous franchises and given us cash assurances, Which we never got before, that they mean te carry out their contract.” THE GOLD OF THE COMPANY A GODSEND. What struck me most in this interview was the air of simplicity and sadness in the address of the Ministers, Of course there was no display either in the furmiture of the palace or the dress of its ‘oecupants. Aside from -the- $150,000 paid by the New York company imto the Treggury the ex- chequer of the Dominican government was below the capacity to start a corner grocery. They are @ temperate people in all things, else I should be afraki this windfall of giit- tering geld would drive them on @ spree of delirious joy. How long the gola_ will last it is difficult to say. Baez and his government are in debt fn all directions. The representative of a gunmaking concern im Maiden lane, whe came down on the Tybee, is going home with a strong box of gold, to gladden the souls of some of the despairing creditors of the Repubitc, He ‘was exceedingly lucky. Had ho waited for the next steanier his face might have returned to New York with long drawn corners around the mouth in place of, as im the present instance, being ‘wreathed in smiles and resplendent with a super- human ecstasy. .Some of us stopped at the palatial hotel of M. Auguste, the most extraordinary caravansary on the face of the earth. It looked a thousand years old, but was only 350, and was once the palace of Don Guzman de Humbuggio. I sat down to write there one evening, with all the doors, or rather gateways, of the rooms threwn open to get the cool air, which in this lovely climate comes as regularly as clock- work every morning and evening. At twelve mia- night, when every sound of living thing was hushed, Imust have heard the ghosts of long-tergotten hidalgos and buceaneers pacing threugh the Tooms, There are six er seven Americans in St, Domingo, It is intensely interesting, and when I have more time I shall return toa few words of deseription. Departure of the Tybece—Arrival of Strangers. Samana, St. Demingo, Feb, 21, 1873. The Tybee is just leaving for New York. Our Pilgrims are all gone. One has just paid $2,009 for ® plantation belonging to Burr, near this city. Many atrangers have come.. I shail go over the Place this evening and send you a full account re- garding its health and prospects at another time, VENEZUELA, RE eee Governmental Progress Under President Blanco—Interior Tolis on Industry Abolished—Civic Marriage Made Com- palsory = Parliamentary Prospects = Trade. é The Atlas Steamship Company's United States mail steamship St. Thomas, Captaln Drake‘erd, the Pioneer steamer of the company’s new Jine from New York to Venezuela, arrived from her first out trip at this port yesterday, the 2d instant. she brings a large carge of coffee and a cemplement of passengers. She left Port au Prince, the last port Of call, late on the 22d ultimo, The news repert contains items of interest as to the progress of Venezuela towards a settled govern- ment. Guzman Blanco, the Provisional President, ‘was giving free exercise to temporary unbounded power, by issuing new decrees and abrogating old laws, all calculated, however, to benefit the coun- try. His latest act was to abolish the road dues that have hitherto been collected throughout the country by “head men’ in different districts. No one could move about without paying this tax. It bears heavily upon the parish people taking their small products to market. Another of the President’s laws is the ordinance of civil marriage. Having quarrelied with the Roman Catholic prelate of Caracas, this oMcial was banished, and as a blow at his power the necessity of religious ceremony at a marriage is deme away with; but allare compelled to marry by civil con- tract, As an example to his sph ett the President himself was married to his wife civilly the day befere the present mail steamer sailed, CONGRESS was to assemble on the 20th of February, when it would doubtless confirm Guzman Blanco in the Presidency. ‘The meeting would take place in a large new capitol, which, by aint ef great personal energy and determination, he has had censtructed 1n the short space of one hundred days, CITY AMUSEMENT. Caracas was very gay, and fast recovering from all traces of its former troublous times, TRADE. The coffee crop was abeut a month late, but had commenced to come to market in large quantities, aud was raltug as high as $20 per quintal, CLASH IN THE INTERNATIONAL RANKS. Ponto A aataoasibiy All About a Woman=—Victoria Woodhull Made a Memb: of the Order—Inter- nationalism in Portugal. The Federal Council of Internationals met as usual yesterday at 129 Spring street. Dr. Keryitt was called to the chair, There was a full attend- ance of delegates. The correspondence from the various sections throughout the Union showed that a sign ef reaction against the depressing influ’ ences from which the association in this country had lately suffered (owing to the action of the Hague Congress) were making themselves apparent, and the sections leoked forward to a@ clearer and brighter future for the American federation. A deputation from a newly organize@ section in Brooklyn, headed by Citizen Hyatt, was intreducea to the Council. Citizen Hyatt said that the work- ingmen in that portion of Brooklyn where he re- sided had expressed their willingness to join the International Association, mainly because they are disgusted with the actions of the democratic and repubiican parties, and hoped to find inthe In. ternational a means of ameliorating the condition of Sniper me! bar a 4 ie Council had an: jor mo: ether than th ub! in their proclam: La seh empsneete 3 The CHATRMAN was then instructed to inform the delegates abeut the workings of Council. Me referred the Brooklynites to the us reports of the different Cengresses, and said that the Inter- nationals had no ulterior motives, as they believed in the justice of their cause, and of course the more public their principles were made the better for the association. ‘The section was then received into the associa- tion and given No. 67. Citizen CassEY proposed the woman Woodhull as @ suitable person to fill a vacancy in the Ceuncil, caused by a member who has been struck off the rolls for lack of duty. Citizen BANKS strongly oppose@ the nomination.

No sooner is it an- nounced that he is preparing a new poem than somebody asks whether it ie to be an idy), and hopes not. Respect for a great poet who has never written a line unworthy of hia fame ought to pre- vent auch unnecessary and unmanty behavior. Age olten mellows and refines the imagination, Mr. Longfellow, though his locks are white and years are begtnuing te make thetr marke plaip~ upen him, writes chaster and tonderer verses now than when he composed ‘The Spanish Student.” Mr. Bryant’s “Little Children of the Snow," written in his seventieth year, is the most imagina- tive of his poems. Mr. Tennyson gives us & poem every year, and in his latest idyl there are touches as fine aa in his “Morte d’Arthur”—the latter, by the way, being as grand as anything Shakapeare ever wrote. What we lack In this age is not poetry, but criti- elem, ‘This lack of critical acumen and power and felicity appiles to the arte as well as to literature, if Miss O'Neill were now flashing, meteor-like, across the stage she would find no Hazlitt to em- balm her memory in flowers that would bloom for- ever, ‘The opera, nowadays has ne Leigh Hunt, whose lightest word will be gathered and treasurea while sweet and pure English retains its charme | for cultivated readers. We have before us tne advance sheets of what may be called anew book, by Leigh Hunt, which is to be published in a few days by Lee & Shepard, This- collection, which was gathered from many sources, is called the ‘‘Wishing-Cap Papers,” and it 1s in no way less delightful than the delieious book published a tew ycara ago with tne title of “The Seer.” There are seme exquisite bits of de- seription of persons and places in London, not un- like those which were included in the collection called ‘The Town,’ with other bits, after the fashien of those in “Men, Women and Books.’ ‘The little essays om music and the drama are es- pecially delightful, but, then, everything that Leigh Huat wrote was charming. Mr. Longfellow, it appears, has at last a rival in telling the story of Hiawatha, We all remember how beautifully the poet told us that ——the West Wind came at evening, Walking lightly o’er the prairie, Whispering to the leaves and blossoms, Bending tow the flowers and grasses, Found beautiful Wenonah dying there among the lilies ‘coed her with his words of sweetness, Woood her with bis soft caresses, Till she bore a son in sorrow, Bore a son in love and sorrow. In comparison with this the “new poet’? very tamely tells us that his Hiawatha was Tarenyawago, from the West Wind sprung, Revered in council and in story sung. The author says that he gives the word “Iroquois” an arbitrary pronunciation, and horrifies us with @ Yankee provincialism, making it rhyme with “shore,” “wore” and “law,” from which we are to inier that we are to find Much deep instruction in the simple laws Revealed by Manitou tor Iroquois. The name o/ the new poet is not given, but the publishers of this version of the story of the Troquois sage are A. D. F, Randolph & Co. Though wecan only smile at the verses as too puerile for publication, the little volume contains a short introductory chapter which is exceedingly valua- ble. The origin of the confederacy known in his- tory as’the Fivo Nations never received amore rational explanation, and the annals of republican institations contain no greater compliment than our own Republic draws from the simple story of these confederated red men. Mr. Longfellow’s “‘Biawatha” is clearly shown to be an anachronism, and it is evident that the political polity of the Iroquois was never appreciated, The writer of this introductory chapter can give us something exceedingly valuabie in the way of a special study of the Onondagas and other New York Indians, for his prose is inflnitely better than his verse. New editions of the works of Charies Dickens seem to come from the press as @ mere matter of necessity. No international copyright interfering every American publisher, especially, seems tu think it necessary Lo have a distinctive edition—an edition marked by some exceptional excellence. Some years ago Ticknor & Fields printed their very pretty edition in the green covers, with illustra- tions by American artists, Afterward the Apple tons made a very great success with their cheap editions, The Harpers are now trying to unite American art and cheapness in their household edition, “Nicholas Nickleby,” with fifty-two illus- trations by O. 8. Reinhart, is the latest addition to the set, The pictures are all drawn from the text, and while they exhibit no startling originality they are so pleasantly interwoven with the story as to become part of it. The Harpers are also doing a good work by com- pleting their Students’ Series of abridged histories, The latest addition to this series is ‘‘Hallam’s Con- stitutional History of England.’ Brought into a form atonce so convenient and so popular, the work being almost entire, the growth of the Eng- lish people in constitutional freedom will provoke inquiry and study in many cases where otherwise they would have been everlooked. The American Tepublicam cannot know too thoroughly how the English monarchist guarded personal freedom and wrought out the constitutional prerogatives of the people, Lent has brought a number of religious books, among them a little volume entitled “God Our Father,” by the author of ‘Happiness of Heaven,” published by J. Murphy & Son. The work is a re- ligious rhapsody, bat so simply, clearly and co- gently written that it will bring delight and devo- tion into every heart where its rays happen to fail. The same publishers have issued another little book, entitled “Sister Eugenie,” which relatesin & few brief chapters the trials and devotion of a Sister of Charity. Men ofevery creed are united in commending the work of these unselfish women. How unselfish that work is it is the prov- ince of this book te relate. But, perhaps, the most important of the religtous books of the season is Archbishop Manning's Ser- mons, the second velume of the American edition of which has just been issued by the Cathelic Pub- lication Society. This volume contains the ser- mons which relate to the conflicts of the Holy See with the political movements of the last seven years, and is especially valuable for this reasen. The opiaions of a divine so eminent upon the popu- Jar movements in @ crisis s0 remarkable are well worthy of preservation, however we may differ from them, Im this regard the volume has both a present and a permanent interest, and is valuable te readers of every class. Upto the present time our publishers cannot make even an approximate estimate of their Fall issues, One thing, however, we may rely upon and that is some pencil sketches of Bermuda by Mr. George W. Carleton, similar to “Our Artist in Cuba,” and the the other quaint volumes which the well- known publisher has brought home as mementoes of his foreign travel, Mr. Carleton sails for Bermuda this week, The famous gamecock which Mr. Carleton always introduces into his sketches, and sometimes with rare humor, reminds us that even the fighting chicken has his literature. Mr. Ed. James has just brought that valiant bird to our notice and we are grateful accordingly. Mr. James is an old journalist, and he has pub- Ushed for the benefit of the sporting world a prac- tical treatise on the breeding, training and feeding ef gamecocks. The work has been prepared with great care. In addition toa thorough exposure of the many tricks resorted to by handlers in the pit, the careiul author shows his ittimacy with the diseases to which the gamecock is subject, and the accepted course of treatment for their cure. The book also contains the standard rules governing cocking throughout fhe United States, Canada and Great Britain, and much other information of value to those concerned in this enlightened sport.

The drawings for the use of the surveyors of the new Court of Justice in London are 300 in number, The falfilment of contracts (tenders of which will probably be received by March 25) will, it is likely, effect the removal of Tempie Bar. Neither the Society of Painters in Water Colors nor the Institute of Painters in Water Colors ac- cepts the invitatien of the Commissioners of the London International Exhibition to contribute to that exhibition. Fore! criticism declares that M. Massalof’s series of etchings illustrating the masterpieces in the Hermitage, St. Petersburg, are valuable as tending to cultivate public taste and show what can be done in nattonal galleries. ‘The Hotei de Ville in Paris istobe promptly re- constructed, M.

HONOLvLy, Jan. 27, 1873. Thave received'a copy of @ brochure just pub- Mshed tn Honolniu by Captain Walter M. Gibson, 80 well known to your readers from 1853 to 1857 for hie imprisonment in Java and his claim against the Dutch; also for hia scheme of emigrating the Mormons to the tslatid of New Guinea, which would have been carried out, and would have rid the United States of a troublesome question, but for the obstinacy of President Buchanan. Mr, Gibson ia @ little critical upon the new order of affairs in these islands, He claims, and his friends claim for him, the most infuential part in bringiug about the recent election of King Lunatilo; but the old religious missionary clique got the inside track after the battle was ended, THE NRW KING ig an interesting man, with a taste for literature; but has no firmness of character or political ability, There was certainly an opportunity for republican- ism or annexation when the late King died, Every intelligent foreigner feela and saye that if an American man-of-war had been here at the time, orifthe American Minister had not been hoping for a Ministeria) portfolio under the new King, a Republic would have been declared and annexa- tion would have followed, Public opinion concen- trated upon Lunalilo on account ef democratic tendencies, ROYAL HABITS AND REFORMS. It is a settled conviction in all mids here that Major General Schofield and General Alexander came to the islands, with Admiral Pennock, on board the hip California, and accompanied by the Benicia, in the hope t! they would find a state of affairs that would warrant an interference and perbaj uire @ military organization Ps in the interest of the United States. ‘They came, however, too late—only to witness the crowning of the new ine Nevertheless the an- nexationists hepe a good deal from King Lunalilo, ‘9 he 1s partial to Americans and eaatly persuaded. He was, it ts alleged, a notorious drunkard when Prince, and has wondertully reformed since his election as King; but there is net a strong hope that he will persevere in the reform. Ifne should fall into his old habits the government o/ the coun- try would be taken out of his hands. RAPID DECLINE OF THE NATIVE POPULATION, The decline of the native preihe ta very rapid. The recent census shows a@ decline of fifteen per eent in six years. The cause of the decline is net disease, but want of children, Of fortnaix couples known to the writer only eight have children. Pre- vention of offspring is a study with the women of these islands and infanticide is genoraily practised. ‘Three-fourths of the present native populdtion are julte, Mr. Gibson proposes to repeople this archi- pelago with Japanese, East India Islanders and other Asiatics, A shipload of Japanese immi- grants have proven a very desirable acquisition to the islands, THE NEW CABINET AND MINISTERS, The new Cabinct ofKing Lunalilo, composed of Messrs. Bishop, Hall, Stirling and Judd, gives some confidence on acceunt of respectability of position, but not on account of ability. Mr. Bishop, who commenced as @ clerk at $1 a day, has recently been a successful banker, but he owes his present position to a native wife. Mr. Hall has been a prudent, saving, hardware dealer all his days, and is a goed economist, and does not pretend to be @ politician or a statesman, Mr. Stirling is a Scotch builder, recently arrived in the country, and owes his position to the fact that it was considered neceasary to ‘have one Britisher in the Cabinet, and he was regarded as a quiet, easily managed man. Mr. Judd is a son of the missionary, Dr. Judd, and owes his hmoaitten to nothing else but the fact of his being a Judd. ANOTHER PROBABLE HOMICIDE, Coroner Jones, of Brooklyn, was notified yester- day to visit John Cooney, who is lying at the point of death at the Long Island College Hospital, and take his ante-mortem deposition. Cooney, it may be remembered, was feariuily beaten on Friday night last while in a drunken fight in Patrick Dai- ley’s liquor store, corner of Richard and Walcott streets, Red Hook Point. William Downey, who is said to have been the chief assailant of the dying man in the altercation alluded to, has been ar- rested and is held to await the result ef the in- juries inflicted, el MARRIAGES AND DEATHS.
