ar. DOMINGO TREATY AND ANNEXATION.
II does not seem to be generally known
that the Santo Domingo treaty rejected by
the Senate year ago was afterwards agreed
bv the Administration and President Baez
TO be considered pending till july LIST next.
So, with the report of the commission, the
President can send to the Senate The same
treaty, provided that new one has not
been negotiated. A letter received mere
Yesterday from ex-senator Wade, the pres
ident ofsthe commission, leaves no room TO
doubt that their report will be unanimous
in favor Of annexation, and on the follow
ing basis:
!. All classes Of the population favor an
nexation with great unanimity.
9. The public debt of the Republic Is
about million and half, as covered by the
late treaty, and is unfunded.
8. The agricultural resources are rich,
and almost unlimited.
100000
5. There are no treaty or alliances OF
Santo Domingo pending with other foreign
powers.
The commissioners, on their arrival this
week or the next, will probably submit
preliminary report, which the president
will Mt once send to Congress, il it is in ses
sion. as required by the terms of the joint
resolution authorizing the commission.
The official dispatches published yester
day, wherein Admiral Poor, acting under
orders Of the President, warned the Gov
eminent of HayG not TO interfere will
Santo Domingo while the commissioner
were there, creates very general advers
comment among Republicans, and is re
garded as positive blow to the annexation
scheme, for the extraordinary power as
sumed by the President is looked upon n
wholly unauthorized. 1t bears out the re
peated declarations Of Mr.. Sumner (whiel
the Administration has so often denied
that,a United States naval force had men
aced both Hayti and Santo Domingo

SAN DoMINGo.-Don Piatt writes to TIN
Cincinnati Commercial:
s'The Senate has been polled by Senate
SchurZ and others, and th!rty-three mem
beers counted positively, clearly, and dis
tnctly against the annexation of San DO
mingo, either through treaty or resolution
A majority cannot be obtained for the reso
luton, because the members are mol VIII
ing to give up III that way the privileges
pertaining to the Senate, and the treaty re-
quircs twothirds vote. Senators who
would vote for the treaty will not vote fol
the resolution"
s DEMOCRATIC ORGANIZATION.
The superb organization and dis
cipline Of the Democratic member
of the House attracts comment ant
praise from every quarter. They have
no quarrels among themselves, or
having them, they are settled in private, 81
