HIsroKoM RErEIBUroNs--Jeckert the banker,
who was one Of the hostages murdered by the
Commune savagss during the assault on Paris,
was the man whose Mexican claims Napoleon
made one Of his excuses for invading Mexico
Retribution for that great crime has singularly
oyertaken its authors and nam instruments.
Spain engaged in it with General Prim as her
leader. Spain has since been revolutionized and
Prim assassinaied. The sad fate Of Macmillan
and CarIotta the world is familiar with. Austria
upheld it, and she has been terribly punished.
One Of its excuses was the revival Of the power
of the Jesuites and the hrmer establishment of
the Catholic religion on the American continent.
The Pope favored it, and his power began TO
wane then, and is now in ruins Napoleon may
date the beginning Of his fall from that istarred
expedition. Every French General engaged in
Mexico, yet living, has since been beaten on the
battlefield and disgraced in the opinion Of his
own countrymen And now Jecker has died By
the hand of violence. The British statesmen
that excused it are either dead or out Of power.
The retributions of history are often stranger
than so-ealled poetic justice.

SAN DOMINGO.
COMMISSIONERS INTERVIEW BAEz.
Reports Of Their work.


SAN DOMINGO CRY, Feb. 13.-The Com
mission arrived here from Samana Bay
yesterday. Every one connected with
the party is in good health. The want OF
coaling facilisies detained the ship six days
at Samana. The Commission found thatthe
inhabitants of that peninsula generally fa-
vor annexation. A full Investigation made
into the ownership of land around the
harbor, showed that no United States Of
flcia1 was involved in any private transac-
ton there whatsoever. Fabens and his as
sociates and O'Sullivan have a perpetual
lease, at nominal price, of nearly all the
available water front for large vessels
around the harbor Of Sanana. There are
ne valuable minerals in that section.
The Commission landed here this morn
ing, and were formally received by Baez.
Wade explained the character of the
visit. Baez and Cabinet gave them cor
dial welcome.
Baez said that peace and stable govern
ment would follow uuion with the
United States. The people were anxious
for union. Cabral had no Dominicans
with him. The force he was supposed
to command were Haytiens and Hayti was
the real mover in the whole matter. He
had information that an incursion was to
be made while the Commission was here,
agents he had learned the whole move
ment. He expressed the hope that the
Commissioners would examine all classes,
and promised to extend every facility.
Five of the party came across the island
from Samana to this place.
The Commission find no appearance of
public disturbances or dissensions.
The season is very healthy. The officers
and crews of the United States steamers
Tennessee, Nantucket and Yontic now in
this harbor, are all welt.
The Commission will be here one week
longer, and will probably visit Azua next
week. The stories of trouble there are un-
true.
The Commission intend to start home in
about four weeks.
Baez agIeed to give safe conduct to Ca
bral or any Of his officers to come here and
meet the Commissioo, and messengers will
be dispatched at once.

roads, where passengers have carelessly
| thrown their peach stones from the car
windows, may be found great numbers of
thrifty trees bearing fruit. Our people
have never paid much attention to raising
the finer varieties of this fruit, but in every
instance where they have, the result has
been in the highest degree satisfactory. If
we had markets where fruits could be sold
in quantity, East Tennessee would soon
become the most productive fruit district
on the continent. The completion of our
Cincinnati and Louisville Railroad will
open up to us fine fruit market.
Our people have recently turned their
attention to preserving fruits by canning,
and large quantities of peaches have been
put up in East Tennessee in that way
within the past few years.
There are few fine vineyards in East
Tennessee, especially in the county of
Morgan and along the Cumberland table
lands. The universal testimony of all who
have engaged in it, and they are principal
~ men who have had experience, is that
grape raising can be made success. There
can be no doubt but that much of our soil
is admirably adapted to this business.
Much attention has been recently given
to strawberries, particularly in the neigh
borhood of Knoxville. They ripen from
the middle of May to the first of June, and
are really very delicious. Blackberries
have not been cultivated, or at least very
slightly, yet they are found to grow spon-
taneously all over the country, growing in
a wild state.
This berry grows to be very large and
luscious without cultivation, and is almost
equal in flavor and size to the cultivated
Lawton of colder climates. The season for
them is so long that we have them fresh
every day for several months. They grow
SO abundantly that they can be bought for
trifling sum-in quantities for one dollar
bushel. We do not see why money could
not be made canning blackberries at this
price. We have often called attention to
the price, quantity and quality of the ber-
ry, and suggested that wine and jam could
be made for trifle and sold readily. Will
not some one think of this?
Currants, gooseberries, &C., are found in
nearly all of our gardens. There are many
varieties of the smaller fruits which our
space forbids us mentioning in detail. We
have no hesitation in saying that East
Tennessee is first-class fruit-growing
country. Much Of our high lands is pecu-
liarly adapted to it.
In our next We will give other products
not here noticed, and in connection
Herewith an account of the manner
in which our soil is titled, so that it
may be seen under what circumstances
such articles are produced. Immigrants
who come from localities where the
soil is in high state of cultivation can
then judge of what they can accomplish
by an improved mode of cultivation here.

Consumption Cared.

1t is but rarely that this dread destroy is ever
successfully cured. Indeed, SO very seldom is
it done that the cures that are effected are not
always believed. We saw and convsrsed yes
terday, with Mr. Wilson Burchfsld, a citizen
of Jefferson county, who assured US of the sue
cessful treatment Of his daughter, young girl
of nineteen, who for two years had been severely
afflicted, but under the treatment of DR.. r. T.
Hamilton, of New York, has entirely recovered
and is fast regaining her former strength. The
treatment was entirely by correspondence and
prescriptions, the Doctor never having seen his
patient, and is the more remarkable on this &C,
count, in our opinion. If any doubt it they
can easily satisfy themselves by inquiring O.
Mr.. Burchfeld or his neighbors.
