STEAMER CITY OF RIcHMoND.-Are the mer-
chants of Portland aware of tie great advan-
tases derived by them in the keeping of the
steamer City of Richmond on the route to Ma
chias during the winter season? We know of
one large trade, amounting to many thousands
of dollars. that was prevented going to Boston
simply by having this steamer on the route.
She left last night for the Eastward with a
large freight, ali from Portland merchants,
which gives great encouragement to the own
ers to keep here on the line. Let our mer-
chants do all in their power to strengthen and
Eastern section of the State and there will be
no difficulty in having steamer on the route
all the year through.

San Domingo.

SAN DOMINGO, Dec. 10, via Havana.-The
message of the President of the United States
at the assembling of Congress is anxiously
awaited here, and unless favorable to the an
nexation OF the Island general revolution is
probable. In that event the people in those
portions of the island favoring peace will place
themselves under the protection of some Eu-
ropean power; which one it shall be they are
Indifferent They would much prefer an alli-
ance with the United States however, to any
protection which an European nation could
offer. The probability Of an interference by
Hayti unless the question of annexation is soon
received, is debated. Companies have been
formed in the United States, Europe and Gen.
trail America and they are waiting the favora-
BILE action of the American Congress before
commencing operation on the island.
