NEW YORK, March 22.-Ben. Wade
in his report on san Domingo, take
/ the ground that BaeZ is de fIctO Pres
/ ident Of the republic, and in full anC
! peaceful possession of the government
| Cabr8l is a mere bandit, living in the
mountain districts, where he is sUs
tanned by Hayti. The people of Sau
Domingo, Wade says, is Overwhelm.
iDgly in favor Of annexation. They
/ are "a quiet, orderly, industrious race
The charges Of corruption against
United States officers in negotiating
the treaty Of 1863, are branded as
villainOUs ISLANDERS, without a shadow
of foundation. The report is favOra.
ble to annexation in every particular,
and closes with the remark: "TO
embrace the opportunity to plant re-
publican institutions, and establish
civil liberty and American civiliza-
ton upon that beautiful and prOduc.
tive island, thus laying the ground,
work Of a great, free and prosperous
State, would add another to the
achievements Of our republic worthy
to rank with the great events of our
history, and would be equally beneti-
cial to the people of both countries. "
DR.. Howe indOrse5 Wade's report in
every essential particular. At various
meetings held the subject has been
thoroughly discussed. White objects
to the closing paragraph of the report,
but Wade is firm in his determination
that it shall not be stricken out.
Howe fully agrees with him, and will
sign il. White is writing some ideas
Of his Own-prinCipally historical -
which be wishes to insert in the re.
port, and which If inserted viii not
materially change it. The prObabili-
ties are that White will finally agree
to the latber clause. The report Will
be unanimous. The report as it stanus
now is about four columns in length.
Wade calls CabTal a chicken thief,
and says il was unnecessary to see
him; that it makes no difference if he
is opposed to annexation. Howe was
in favor Of delaying the expedition at
Port-au-Priuce until Cabrai could be
seen.
General Baez filed a claim with the
Commission, for personal indemnity,
for nearly 100000, for the destruction
Of property, ETC., which he insists
must be paid. IL annexation occurs,
he is willing to accept the old treaty.
The Commissioners will all visit
Washington as soon as they return.
The expenses Of the expedition thus
far are about $4,000, exclusive Of the
ships expenses.
WADE HURRTING UP THINGS.
KEY WEST, FLA, March 22.-The
Tennessee, with the San Domingo
Commissioners, will leave for New
York tomorrow, and il is expected
a tug will meet the Tennessee off
Charleston bar on Saturday and take
on board a portion of the Commission
ers and attaches, so they may go to
Washington with their report by rail.

Msanigg tf these Letters.

NEW ALBANY, MISS, March lG. 1871.
Editors ApDeaJ-PIease allow me
space in your valuable columns for
a few words on the Selma, Marion
and Memphis railroad, and the vote
to be taken on the 2jth, just by the
city of Memphis and county of Shelby,
to raise a tax to aid in the COnstruc-
tiOn Ol.that great enterprise; AMI may
! say in the outset that the voter and
Taxpayer cannot certainly fail to see
the great importance of having the
road completed at an early day, that
the city of Memphis may be fortified
against her railroad and commerce
rivals on the Mississippi, Ohio, Mis-
souri, and other great rivers of the
West and Northwest. Then surely, the
vote will be almost unanimous in
fav9r of the tax. 1t is not for the
voter TO consider at present whether
the road shall pass through Holly
Springs, ChulhOma or any other pro-
posed or contemplated route, but shall
the road come to Memphis, or shall
we neglect TO give the aid needed and
allow the road to Cross at Helena or
some other point or place, and there
1It bttl- luE IL III several GlIecLlODBs
VIII the merchants of Memphis part
with the trade Of people along the
line Of the road TO a great extent or
distance on each side of Memphis to
Selma? lfnOt, then assist and use your
influence for the early construction of
the road. II Memphis fails TO get the
road, she loses this trade, and if the
tax should not be voted, then the
chances are that Memphis and Shelby
county lose this great road, which Is
really to be a connection between the
Atlantic and Pacific waters, becoming
one Of the most useful and profitable
thOrOughlares around the globe We
desire TO trade with Memphis and give
such assistance as we are able to do,
but If Memphis and Shelby county re-
fuse to vote the tax and open this
channel of trade, freight and pas.
SAGE, we must look to other friends
and other places Of trade however re-
luclant it may be to do so.
Respectfully, q. i. BOND.

LITTLE Rock, March 22.-The feel
ing of indignation and contempt in
spired by the conduct of the Legisla-
ture in the matter of the impeachment
OF Mcclure grows hourly stronger aud
deeper. Mcclure has the whole mat
ter in his own hands. The buncombe
speeches before the Senate, sitting as
a 'high old court, " were the himsiest,
most transparent bOsh, and the YER
dict and decision of the Court were all
pre-arranged. It will be used by the
Radicals as a campaign document in
1872. He is acquitted by his associates
in villainy, and the people OF Arkan-
sas, irrespective Of partisan afilia-
tions, pronounce him guilty of even
greater crimes than those embodied in
the Indictment preferred against him.

Saturday is set for the adjournment

From the Jackson ClsriOn.l
Sometime ago the Sheriff OF LeaEe
county was " robbed" with a facility
which led many persons to believe
that he himself was a party to the
transaction. The strange proceeding
was followed up by the cool impu-
dence Of an application to the Legis-
Iature for relief; and the worst part Of
IL is that it was readily granted by the
ninnyhammeTs who comprise the
msiOrity OF that body, and are so
generous with other peoples money.
Luckily foF the taxpayers, the Gov
ernor nipped the scheme in the bud
by a very able veto.

PARRTCIDE.
The Brandin Republican says: 'tWe
learn from our friend Hugh Mcleod.
Sheriff OF OOvingtOn county, that an
old negro man, named BUrrell Magee,
was killed by his son, a lad Of sixteen
or seventeen years Of age, on the 9th
ult., in the upper edge of COvingtOn
county. The old man and his three
boys were making shingles i'm the
woods, when a quarrel arose between
him and the oldest boy, and as the
old man stopped down 70 his work the
boy struck him in the head with his
AK, killing him instantly. The bOy
and his two little brothers then
dragged the dead body of their father
about a half mile, to a thicket, and
covered il up with leaves. They were
all three arrested, and confined in
Jail, but the two small ones have been
turned loose, as they are to small and
ignorant to be considered accountable
beings"
HURRICANE.
On the 4th inst, says the Brandon
Republican, a small hurricane passed
over this county north Of Brandon,
blowing down the gin-hOuse Of An
drew Harper, and a large amount of
timber and fencing. On Wednesday
Of last week another passed through
the southern portion Of this county,
tearing down every house, barn, tree
and fence in its track. We have been
unable to learn many particulars, but
q friend informs US that it crossed |
Strong river at Williams bridge, /
below Westville, utterly destroying
the bridge, and taking anOrtheasterly
course, demolished the residence of
John Mcintyre, and several others
whose names we fail to remember.
