The Insurrection in San Domingo.

By the Royal Mail Company's steamship Shan-
non, which arrived at Southampton yesterday, we
have intelligence from San Domingo giving details
of the fierce struggle which, as we mentioned yes-
terday, was going on in that island between the
Spaniards and the Dominicans.

The Jamaica Guardian of Oct. 9 publishes the
following intelligence :—" By the arrival of the
Spanish schooner Monte Christo we have later
intelligence from Santo Domingo. The Domi-
nicans, after having driven the Spanish soldiers
out of Puerto Plata, with terrible slaughter,
had been attacked by reinforcements from the
capital, and compelled to retire to Santiago de
Cabelleros, a town in the interior, where they
had made a stand against the Spaniards. General
Santona has not been killed, as was reported,
but had marched at the head of 2,000 men into
the district of Cibao to operate against the
Dominicans at Santiago de Cabelleros. Of the
force sent from Cuba on the receipt of tidings
of the outbreak, several men had been
wounded in the attack on Puerta Plata. The
officer in command, a colonel of artillery, had been
killed, being the only one of the attacking party
who fell in that encounter. Subsequently a battle
was fought between Puerto Plata and Santiago de
Caballeros, in which the Dominicans were worsted.
They were preparing, however, to make a stout
defence at the latter place.
The latest intelligence from San Domingo an-
nounces that the Spanish Government are pouring
in troops from Porto Rico and Cuba. Quite 11,000
had already landed. The Spanish losses at San-
tiago exceeded 1,000. The battle of San Louis was
a serious encounter, but the Spaniards were victo-
rious.

By the schooner Rapid, with 54 refugees from
Porto Plata, we have dates to the 18th September.
The 2,000 Spanish troops that left on the 3d for
Santiago, under the comet and of General Suero,
were followed on the 10th by another force of 1,600
but both divisions have been defeated. The latter,
on reaching Perez, a place about 18 miles from
Porto Plata, ware attacked by the Dominicans.
and obliged to retire with the loss of several killed
and many wounded. They returned to Porto Plata
at midnight, which caused the greatest uneasiness
among the people, as everybody fancied that the
rebels had entered the town. The men under Suero
succeeded in entering Santiago, and in uniting with
the garrison commanded by Brigadier-General
Buceta, who had managed to retain the
fort. But Santiago having been burnt by the rebels
and there being a dearth of provisions, the
Spaniards were compelled to capitulate to a force
of 5,000 Dominicans. The terms of the capitula-
tion were, that the Spaniards should give up
the fort to the Dominicans, on condition of their
permitting them to retreat to Porto Plata un-
molested. The Dominicans, however, did not
respect these stipulations, for the Spaniards had
no sooner left the fort and began their
march to Porto Plata, followed by a large
number of the inhabitants of Santiago, than the
Dominicans pursued them, firing upon them with
deadly effect. The Spanish losses are over 1,000 in
killed and wounded. Many of the inhabitants of
Santiago, who had sided with the Spaniards, were
also killed during the burning of the town,
and many more, including women and chil-
dren, were slain during the retreat of
the troops to Porto Plata. The atrocities
committed on both sides were horrible, and are
said to have been as bad as those committed
during the Sepoy rebellion in India. The town
of San Carlos, in the neighbourhood of San
Domingo city, is said also to have been
burnt by the rebels, and it is believed
that Porto Plata will share a similar fate.
Many of the town's people, and some who
have had no share in the rebellion, except as
sufferers, have been arrested and imprisoned by
the Spaniards; others are denouncing their friends,
hoping that they will thereby shield themselves.
Bands of soldiers armed with Minie rifles, and pro-
ficient in rapine and lust, are daily roving through
the streets, breaking into houses, and destroying
their contents.

THE " LIFT" AT THE GROSVENOR HOTEL.--At
the Grosvenor the traveller steps into a room,
throws himself on a lounging. sofa, and lo I he is in a trice
on the third floor. When we consider the waste of human
muscles that a few gallons of water scientifically applied
:;an save, we wonder that these convenient ascending rooms
were not in public use long ago. One hundred and twenty
gallons of water is sufficient to work the hydraulic appara-
tus by which the room, with 'its complement of seven in.
mates, can be lifted, say 120 feet, which, at fivepence a
thousand gallons, makes the costa little more than a half.
