Tho Country in n state Of Revolution
The Cleaner, OF July "a, publishes the follow
ing:-
1.-The news from s.. Domingo is to the 10th
inst. That country is now in complete state
OF revolution. At various points strong forces
under well accredited chiefs, are gathered for
the purpose of overthro wing the Gov
ernment. In central position stands Gene
eral Manzueta, in command of a column;
he is one of the most implacable enemies of
President BaeZ. On the frontiers of the South,
On the frontiers of the North General Polanco
had also taken up arms There is no doubt that
Baez will fall very soon, for public opinion is
very uniavorable to him, and he is detested on
Spaniards or Americans. A general revolution
is imminent, land 1t is veryprobable that General
Luperon, who 10 the chief Of the present move
ment in the dominican Republic, will assume
the power. General Luperon Is now 10 this

Ths Brigands Arming for Battle.

From the Independence of Jacmel, of the 14th
OF July, we quote the following:--
'For the lasttwo days the brigade who infested
the neighborhood have assembled at a given
point, provided with ammunitions of war. Yes
terday, at IL o'clock A. NJ, Gen. Verneset, whose
valor is well known, left the city at the head of
a detachment. After all hours march the troops
reached the neighborhood of Caste and Mon
balm. There they met the enemy, superior
III numbers, and strongly entrenched. The
combat was protracted and bloody. In about
On hours time our ammunition failed us, and
the General gave an order to retreat j. Domi-
nique, however charged and carried the en-
trenchments at the head of fifteen brave Jacme-
lians, and took from the enemy arms and am
munition. General j. P. Hector, who had re:
turned to Jacmel for the purpose of protecting
that place from the attacks of the Piquets, had
issued decree proclaiming Thomas Christi an
outlaw, and offering 5000 Haytien dollars
reward for his head. Thomas Christi is at the
head of the Piquets, a lawless set, represented
as proclaiming no political principle whatever,
but whose object is said to be robbery and as
sassination.
An attack had been made by the Dominicqns
on the territory of Hayti. Les Anses Petre
had been taken, General Toussaint Boyer and
his son murdered, Grand Gosier sacked, and
Saltrou burned down.
The traitor Baez, President of 81. Domingo,
after negotiating the sale of a portion of the
territory OF st. Domingo, wishes to encroach on
our frontiers, but we shall soon show these
monsters that we prefer to make the sacrifice of
our liberty before submitting ourselves and our
families TO their outrages.
An Official Visit by the American
Minister.
The latest accounts furnish the following
through a correspondents
"Mr. Hollister, the American Charge d AfdjreS,
at Port.au- Prince, after having obliged the
Haytiens who had taken refuge under his flag,
to leave the Consulate on June 20, took his de-
parture on the Penobscot for Gonaives on an
official visit. On his arrival there he was
received by tVictorin Chevalier, salnave's
General with unusual honors, O salute being
fired from the forts of the town. Mr.. Hollister
in company with Victorin Chevalier visited the
forts of the town and dined with Victorin, the
American flag flying during the whole time.
The next morning Mr.. Hollister left Gonaives
and proceeded to Mole st, Nicholas, which place,
it is openly asserted, he designs making the
headquarters of the United States in the West
Indies.
The revolution must and will succeed, NUM-
tions of all sorts having been provided to the
army of 1000 men before Port-au-Prlnce. No
mercy, writes the General-in-Chief, will be
shown to the murderers who attempted to assas
sinate Gefrard and his family on the 23d of
February 1868.
Later news from Jacmel, dated July "a, gives
us intelligence of moment.

THE METROPOLITAN FIRE DEPARTMENT.
Another Rem0nstrance from the Citizens
Association.

Another Remonstrance from the Citizens
Association.
The Citizens Association have again addressed
the Senate Committee on Municipal Affairs, protest.
ing against the increase OF the pay OF the rank and
file OF the Fire Department over $1,000 per annum
for which sum, they assert, as many good men
can be obtained as are required. The pay IN
1886 Is put ut $780, expenses $600000 in 1866 $780,
expenses of department 500 900; in 1867 81 O00 ex
1893 0OO n the increase is allowed the expenses
will be 600 0O0 or at least 100000 more than
necessary. The committee recommend the establish
men OF different grades with such rates allowed the
maximum as will best subserve the public interest,
thus offering incentive for the display OF courage
and skill, the maximum limit OF the highest grade
not to exceed 81 900 per annum.
The association state that Is understood that the
Fire Commissioners propose to reOrganizc the de-
partment above Twenty-third street upon q basis
which will allow to each company two men at the
full pay OF remen, and who perform continuous duty
and also eight auxiliary men, who to receive $500
a year and who are to sleep at the engine houses,
and to attend all fires but are to possess the prv
lege OF pursuing their avOcatiOns at points cOnvc-
nient to the houses The association is Of the opinion
that this plan which will reduce the expenses OF tie
department, ana which could in n more limited de-
gree, be applied to the whole department without
impairng its efficiency will be materially nterfered
with should the Legislature pass the bill allowing the
above increase OF salaries. The committee conclude
by warning the Legislature that they win have to
bear the whole responsibility OF the increase OF pay
no matter who may petition for it, and also that it
will ultimately be put forward as another instance
OF legislative increase Of the expenses OF local
government.
