THE ISLAND OF ST. THoMAs-It has been
rumored at Washington for a long time that
negotiations were pending for the purchase
by our Government of ST. Thomas. and yes
terdav morning we had report by Over
land Telegraph that the bargain had been
consummared, and that the island is now
part of the United States. The West Indies
are string of islands 1600 miles long
extending from the southern point Of Florida
to the mouth of the Orinoco. About 600 mile, !,
from Florida, aud 80 miles east of Porto
Rico, in latitude lSo north, lies st. Thomas,
an iSlet 10 miles long and vide. with a
rugged surface and poor soil. The popu-
lation is 1900, of which all save 900 are
collected in the main seaport Charlotte.
Amelia The harbor of this place is excel
lent, and its situation is very favorable for
commerce ; so the town has hecom- a centre
of traffsf for ocean steamers, of which num-
Der touch there. including those plying from
Southampton. and ST Nazare to Aspinwall
The island is. therefore, a valuable posses
sion for great maritime nation. but it is
worth very lite to an insignificant power
like Denmark. We presume that if ST.
Thomas becomes the property of our Gov
ernment il will be treated as Territory and
permitted to send a delegate to Congress,
with no probability that ii will ever become
