WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-The treaty for the an
nexaton OF San Domingo TO the United States was
negotiated by President Baez and our commercial
agent, Mr. Perry, In the city Of San Domingo. This
treaty, with secret message Of the President OF the
United States, will be sent 10 the Senate On Monday.
The lease Of samana was effected, and the juris.
dicton Of the United States established over that
part OF the territory OF San Domingo as q prelim-
nary. Several Senators privately assert that the
acquisition Of San Domingo will easily lead TO
the possession Of the island OF Cuba. 1t is certain
that the President OF the United States has stated
his reasons for the negotiations to some OF his
most Intimate political friends, among whom are
these Senators.
The text Of the treaty undoubtedly contains the
following propositions namely:
Frst-The United states stipulate TO pay the sum OF
one million nye hundred thousand dollars

Yesterday morning. about 10 o'clock, an elder
ly. serious looking individual. well protected from

overcoats and comiortcrs entered the Office Of the
clerk OF the Supreme Court in a methodcal man
ner and after spending about ten minutes in un-
wrapping himself to sufficient uegree to be able 10
artculate, expended about the same reriod OF time
in slowly looking around him. Amer carefully in
vesgating the surroundings OF the highly ornament

bland features OF one Of the most Gentlemanly and
benevolent Of living deputy clerks.
Leaning toward him. he seriously enunciated the

The reply to this intcrrogatory was Of a somewhat
afirmatory character, wlIereupon the questioner
his wife had not deserted hm-neither had she been
guilty OF adultery cruelty, drunkenness, or any OF

The old woman, Cap quoth he, don't get

kindly, "sec ye yonder desk 7"
Tne stranger responded In the anrmative.

And silently and sorrowfully the disappointed one
