of witnesses of every profession, trade and
calling, have testified TO its efficacy as n
tonic and regulating medicine. The names
and statements OF these witnesses have
been published in the public prints. Many

San Doansa6ss.-aAlpSosa


In Lis late annual message. the Presi-
dent expresses his official opinion that
the mon acquisition Of San Domingo
would worlSan early public calamity"
and that the negotiation which ripened
into a treaty "needs only to be inivesti-
gated to besapproyei." We have iuves
tigatcd it, and we cannot approve iite=
Upon the data before us. and before
President Grant also, let US deliberately
characterize the subject in hand.
IT is conspiracy to make money, by
procuring an International treaty with
the ai'l Of fraud and force, Tie con-
spirators are Dominican. English, and
American. The Donicans, who are the
heads of that Government, expected to
receive from the United States, and ap-
propriate tothemselves,the price of their
country and people; the Enelishmen ex-
pected to get the United States subroga,
te0 to the Dominican Republic for. the
satisfaction Of enormous and spurious
claims; snd the Americans, procuring
from their Dominican ce,conspirators
the necessary show of concessions, ex-
pected for their pay general monopoly
of franchises, lands, mines, and other
grants in an annexed territory of the
| Unitel States. One individual, indeed,
an, old acquaintance of Gen Grants
man named Fabens-is common to all
parties. The members of the Domini-
can Government had another incentive
namely, that, unless they could get the
armed protection OF the United States
they would all lose their heads, Presi
dent Baez said this distinctly. Presi
dent Grant, too, has incentives. HI
thinks the Monroe doctrine" or some
sort Of thing, is involved. Probably
Fabens told him so. 80
