IS manifested with reference to the bank statement,

The Rumored San Domingo Expedition OH
clally Denied.
The New York Times has the following in its Wash
ington despatches:-
The reported sailing OF naval expedition for San
Domingo, which appears in some of to-day's New
York papers, is largely sensational, and is denied
here on official authority The Albany, which left
the West India Squadron, which she will do after
having landed General Babcock, special agent OF this
Government, at the Island OF San Domingo. General
Babcock, who was sent to that island last sunlmer
and,returned in August, left here on Tuesday last
as the bearer OF communications 70 the Govern
ments Of San Domingo and Hayti. What
the nature of his instructions is kept profound
secret here, though it is generally believed that his
mission relates to the question of the acquisition of
that island. The statement that naval expedition
is to take possession of the island IS absurd In view
of the fact that that would be an act of war, and
the report that it is to be surrendered to three
missionerS is also absurd, when it Is remembered
that such surrender could only follow regular treaty
to that effect which must have the assent OF the
Senate 1t may not be generally known, but 1t is
nevertheless fact, that direct proposition for the
February from President Baez, and now lies in the
State Department 1t came to hand just as MIR.
Seward retired, and the knowledge of this fact was
ut the bottom OF the efforts in behalf OF protecto
rate, which were made in the House at the close Of
the Forteth Congress.
Mr.. Stewards intention was to induce Baez and his
Government to run up the American flag and de-
we would send vessel of to protect them until
annexation was complete. San Domingo Is as
anxious for annexation now as ever. Hayu does not
appear 1t Is desirable to secure the whole OF the
island, II possible, and it is suggested that the nego
tiations now going OH have that purpose in view.

CALAMITIES,
Little Girl Burned to Death-A Man Gored by

The Carlisle Volunteer of yesterday says:-on
Tuesday morning last Mrs. Eaton. poor woman re-
siding on East street. went to wash at q neighbOrS
house. leaving little daughter, aged five or six
years, and younger brother at home. The little
girl was just recovering from an illness, and was
propped up In chair with pillows During the
morning the neighborbood was suddenly alarmed by
the screams OF the little one when it was found that
she was surrounded by burning mass of feathers
and bed clothes. Her face body and arms were
terribly burned and although every aid was admins
tered to her, she died the next morning. II Is
supposed the little brother had been playing with
matches and playfully threw one on the pillows sur
rounding his sister. The case forms another warn
ing to parents never to leave matches within the
reach OF children.
On Friday morning last Moses Brocht, who resides
on the north side OF the Conodoguinet creek, imme-
diatey opposite the reservoir, met with a serious
accident which terminated his life on the following
day. He was attempting to chain vicious bull,
when the animal turned upon him furiously, gorng
him in the abdomen and letting out portion OF the
bowels. Medical aid was summoned at once, but
his injuries were of such character that the physi
clans pronounced his case hopeless. He fingered
until Saturday. when he expired. MIR. Brocht was
an honest, thrifty, hard-working man, much re-
spected by all who knew him.
