Ycur reador will upprociato cer tain information respecting tho San Do mingo question that will como in just nt this Junctuio. In fact, tho public hnvo only hs yet received tho third volumo of this interesting edition of political schem ing, and I propose to roaiedy this omission by producing volumes I. and II. A PORTRAIT OF J1AEZ. Like every other novelist, I must nsk my readers to look back a lov years, say to 1EC5 and 18C0, aud to mako tho ac quaintance of certain individuals in tho good city of Bordeaux; his habiliments denote not exactly poverty, but tho next stage to it; bis skin is brown enough to prove a decided dab of tho tar brush, but. on tin other hand, his bearing is erect, of tue racamm mgiit, ligut gray uuir, and nlout, say, fifty years of ago. This, gcntlo reader, is Scnor Baez, at that time ei-president of tho republic of Santo Do mingo, and HIS OBJECT IK VISITI.VO TRANCE That of raising n loan wherewith to drive his enemy, Cubrul, from whence ho himself had only been ousted a short time previously. For years that lovoly island, n perfect paradise by nature, hai beou turned into a species of boor gardon or stamping-ground for thoso two uieu and their uduuronts ; first one, then the other, would obtain tho ascendancy, and which ever gained tho day immediately set to work to make ull ho could by plunder in ns snort a space of time as possible, for the leauro of power never lasted long with either of them. Months passed away, and poor Baez was fast beginning to realizo the sad fact that raislni: a loan was not quito such an easy oporation as his sanguine Imagination had pictured, aud that the French government cared not ono straw whethor bo or Cubrul governed his beloved ropublic, whon ono lucky day be fell in with the true- hero of this work, one Edwurd Herzberg by nsmo. Uerzberg was but a clerk in a mercantile house iu Bordeaux, but ho was ono of these clever fellows who, out of a very lender salary, managed to live in what may bo called a very pleasant st"lo. AN ALLIANCE, Offensive and defensive, against society In general, was entered into, und as iiaez's means (never at any tlmo pluthortic) wore now beginning to wax "small, and beauti fully less," be became the guest of his newly-found friend Herzberg. Again months pastod away, and still dame fortune was as obdurate as over, un til, one morning, a ray of hope shot into poor uaez s Heart, on ttie receipt of u let ter from certain of his adherents in St. Thomas, who felt certain of ousttni; his adversary, Cabral. "Ho wont, hu saw, ho conquered," and again In his presidential chair, be and bis cabinet forwarded the necessary documents to Herzbori:. who vuu ueuuiue iuu uuiy acknowledged "COHCESSlOXERt" Of the republic of San Dominco. will. power to raise a loan on the Paris course of 8,760,000 francs. Herzberg changed tho scone of tho opor atluns to Paris, and doubtless did his level best to get the money, but tho French 2su wouldn't even nibble, so much more make a lively dain at bis hook. Hope was fast civinc wav to doanulr. ivk.n with a few of bis remaining sous, bo one day sought relief from a very annoying appetite in tbo cafo where he mot with one Simeon Webstor. an Englishman now Simoon delighted In the Imaginary title of 'financial agent," and a casual ad mission of this tact at once brought out all Hcrzberg's troubles; Simoon listened, smiled (a pitying smile), a smile that leernea to say, mo easiest thine in the world in my bands. It succeeded, and CM t a i I. unnuuu uuuaiua m uuanciai agent in re ality for tho first and only lime in his Hfo, xue ueii aay saw mom . ON TUEItt WAY TO LONDON, But strange to say. for somo roatnn llnr berg found It convenient to chango his uiu, ia .auuou iu jingisna as J'.dward iiaruiiom. Now, whatever Herzborg might havo been, certain It is, llartmont was a beggar, not a sou in bis po:ket. Simeon did the magnificent, paid bis passage, took him to his house In tne suburbs of London, fed clothed, lodged and phvsicod him for everal months, at the end of which tlmo both Simeon and tbo concoisionnre boan to And raising loans almost as difficult a game In London as In Paris. Gradually Harlmont had his oyes opened to tho disagreeable fact that Simeon knew as much about lU dutlos of a financial agent as hn did of differential calculi, so It was decided to call In tho assistance of a newly-formed friend, ono llcgloy, who, ns ho had tho privilngo of lilting his hnt on raro occasions, on 'change, to ono or twp of tho moncd world, was looked up to by the worthy pair as THE MAN "TO DO IT." Begloy strutted his short porlod, nav even succeeded so fur, strungo to my, as to tnuuco llartmont to become his part ner, and tho firm of llartmont fc Co. was duly established at No. 0 Great St. Hel ens. .London, mow, as in this country, so m London, ft is not mi uncommon tiling for two or moro parties to occupy tho same rooms in builiici, una Io. U had long been In the possession of ono John Ogle, n shlpbrokcr, (who, 1 limit not omit to say, was a very great crony of Bcgloy's). Of course, Ogle was soon as conversant with the details of tho proposed loan as nnv of mem, uiiu iiariinoni soon lounu Hint tbu only man amongst them who really under stood whut ho was about was thu wily sbipbrokcr. Oglo saw tills, and hu wont in as a sleeping nariner. and tho lot uni ted to oust noor Simeon, who. finding no other road open to satisfaction commenced A SUIT IX CHANCKUV, Which, doubtless, is in us advanced n aUto at this present dalo us cluuecry suits usually are. Ogle now look tho holm of the sinking ship and went vigorously to work. Jicsfrs, j.iv . auurp, well-known men in Ibis lino of businesr, wero iippuinted so licitors to tho company. uuU in a verv short poriod they succeeded in inducing, rETKR LAWSOX it toy. Tho eclobrated seed and cuanu inorchants of London und Edingurgn, to take hold ol the louii. Wo havo 110W arrived ut tho month of December, 18CS. The L iwsons wero in earnest. Harimout had not trolled in Vain j a fish wus on his hook. Alas I how many a slip 'twixt river and bank, us wo toon shall too. A commission of llvo woro font out to cxamino thu pectiritios offered for tho re payment of the loan, especially tho bait lutd to capturo tho worthy seedsmen, at the houd of which was Henry Lawton, one of tho partners in the firm, llurtniont. an engineer, a chomi.it, and a navid ollloor, wno arrived saiely ut their destination (tho city of Santo Domingo) in tho early purl oi January, lfcO'J. THE SECURITIES Conslstod of tho revenues of tho country, in tho first pluco; secondly, of n rich de posit Of guuuo said to exist iipjn tho island oi Altu Velu, and thirdly, of certain gold mines, etc., etc. A low duys saw nil tho party, oxcept llartmont, on their way to examine the guano deposits, und tbo moment their backs wero turned llacz nnd his agent flruw m ihn l.nwjtnns fur n irnnd rntmil uiim of monoy. Tho month of March saw . Jionry l.uwscn back in London iirmly persuaded In his own mind that all the socurltiosoffered woro worthless. Never theless, on his arrival ho found that n very largo sum had been sent to Baez on fuls.t representations made by that party, nnd ut tho earnest solicitation of the knowing shlpbroker. Thero was nothing elso for it, they wero "sucked in." To regain what they hud lost tboy must go on, und ut last thu loun was quoted on ttio stock exchange, dumuging articles in several of tho newspapers uppearud, und finally it-was withdrawn. The Lawsoiis (who really were victims) wrote several explanatory letters, but ull to no use ; tho Sua Domingo loun was voted a dwindle, uud ull who had a hand iu it suffered more or less. All this huppcued whilo Harlmont was still in San Domingo; iu the mouth of Juno lis returned us colonel in tho Douii can army, and again breathed the breath of lifo Into his half dead associates by new and still moro subtle ideas. Puna hud been tried and failed, London was no better, now lot us try the pulse of Undo Sam, says tbo lltllo Israelite (llartmont Is a German Jew), Lrwsons muku their last throw by supplying him with funds, and off ho sturts tor Now York. 18 HE COL. FA1JKXS? For two years be sticks to tho president. but finds that horso won't ride; ut lust, uftor un enormous amount of scheming, the present Samana bay achomo comes out. .Now, l would be inclined to say, what n el l, my wortny little Uol. iabons, alius Uerzberg, alias Harlmont? Before concluding this lettor I think 1 will luko tho opportunity of expressing un opinion respecting THE ISLAND OF SAN D0MIX0.O. As stated in a former portion of mv loi ter, it Is little short of an ottrlbly paradise, 1 havo, during my life, boon considerable of a truvcllor, especially In tho tropics, but naming mat ever i nave soon approaches it In beauty of scenery. Tho foliuge is magnificent, and tho mubogony cannot bo cquuueu in any pari oi uie Known world ; It also supplies moro lignam vita) to Eng. land and this country thuu can bo obtained from every otbor sourea. Fruits, especially tho orange, lomon and citron, havo not their equals under tho sun, and sufficient could bo produced iu a few years to mako them a cheap luxury on ovcry table in tbo land. I be sugar cuno grows larger thnn any I havo scon olsowhero. I havii mmn. growing in a back yard in tho city, three uuu a nun menus in uiamctcr una tilled! feet hign. Tho whole of tho eastern half of tho isl and is fiat, uud Is. iu consequence, desig nated the slanos ; it is covered with lonl; grass, and in somo places brush, but thoro is nothing to prevent its being easily brought into cultivation. fiAMAXA II J, Y Is tho third finest bay 1 havo seen, Uio do Janoiro being first, and l'ort Jackson, In Sydney harbor, being second ; nil the navies in tho world could anchor In it, and find room to awing ut their anchors, deep wator evon close to tho shoro In some places; It abounds in fish, nnd tbo slanos with wild cattlo, brought thcro bv tho Spaniards threo hundred yours ngo. Somo of the bulls iirosald to bo magnificent mil. mals, and awfully fierce. As regards tho political OUJKCT 01' THE I'L IICIIASE, Ono can Term a vory fair idea; but Hint 1 leave to other pens than mino to deal with. Certain it Is, nn onormous trade Is tu bo done by tho establishment of u froo port at Samana, for tho resourcos ol thu country nro very largo, mid, taking winds and currents into consideration, it Is splendidly situated for that purposo, be ing just ubout halfway botwoen the wind ward islands and the shores of troplril Ainerlcu, and directly in the nortlieait trudo winds, bt. nomxao Is n city In ruins, situated tit tho otitranco of tho river (Ozam) on the south coast, us shown in your accompanying map. ju w, no doubt two hunJred years ngo In Span Ish hands a protty strong place, bcnm sur rounded Oil thO SOUtll mill cnal ),.- .... Ill - ...... ... UmlI. cations, now also In n state of ruin uud useless for purposes of dofentn. Tho sea breaks on the eastern kido against rocks so high and Jaggnd as to render them urmp proachable; the north side abuts on the rlvir. The river itself is n moro dilcli, and Hll but usijlesj except for small crafis t hero being only nine fot or wator over tho bar at tho best of tlmos. A trcmondous surf is continually breaking on It, nnd a downward cuncnt renders it by no means an easy placo to onlor; onco tnsldo, nnd no lovltar spot on earth can bo found. THE CLIMATE Is different from anything I haro expe rienced in any other part of tho tropics, Inasmuch on you always havo cool nights. Toward sunset the sea breczo dies away, and by seven o'clock thero Is a cool, gen tle lund wind which, by midiiiglu, will al low of covering to tho extant of u s'leet, and sometimes to a blanket. Of THEl'EOl'LU I had rather not wrllo, for 1 nlways find myself getting angry when I think of them ; a cross botwoen a Spaniard und a negro, with tho worst features of loth brought Into strong rcllaf, Is not prepos sessing, to say tho least ol It. Lazy Is no name for thulr laziness; lutbuleiit brag garts, suporstitlous, ignorant there, thoro, I'll stop and finish iny letter by advising the new mnstors of San Domingo to oiler ull and ovcry ono of lis presont Inhabitants an inducement to quit, for soonor or later thero is bound to bo a row botween men of such opposito tendencies nnd Ideas us tho American and tho Dominican. Santo Domingo, in the hands of a mod erately thrifty race of people, would soon bo n plitco In which it would bodcslrablo to own n little real estate, especially water frontngo on Samana buy. Yours truly, St. Dominic. 111(1 ANli LITTLE "NiaOKIl" IN THE vooni'iLU. From tho Now York Herald. 20th.1 In nrtlclu ton of tUo convention, as it Is ! pompously cwiej, between tlio govern ment of Si.

So tho United States government is to bo dragged into protecting this company and Intervening lo sustain it. Who gives this assurance? Does Gen. Grant or concress know any thing about It? Or is this moro assump tion on tlio part of tho speculators in order to got oil' thoir bonds nnd stock? Then wo find tlio cunning Ilaoz looking after tho main chunco and protecting his pecuniary Intorcsts in nrticlo eleven in n innnnor that may provo cmburrasslng to tho company nnd lead to appeals to the unucuomies.
