It Ia beloved that that gigantic sample Of
American enterprise, horalded with such a grand
flourish Of trumpots fow months apo, and
known as tho samana Dny Company, will shortly
collapBo. When It was first announced that q
company OF New York capitalists had obtained q
perpetual lease Of samana Bay, mud special
grants that would eventually Throw tho whole
Island Of San Domingo into their CONTROL
We were asked to admire Con. arant's
good Judgment, and called upon to
regret that we did not sustain his project of an
notation. Wo wore told that tho Company wero
going to set up Government of its owu, fly
epeoinl flag, take American commerce under its
wealth Of this country. a Governor was dis
patched to establish the Company's now rule
and steamers were to carry Off tho American
population faster than Europe could supply the
loss. It was to be 4 second and grandor East
India Company. But, aftor tho frat
spurt Of enthusiasm, the Samana Day
Company dropped completely out Of
sight. Tho enterprise has not boon hoard
Of for months; and now correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial. who has boen looking It
up, says that it ia oxtromoly difficult to induce
anybody to tnlk about it. stockwoIl. tho ProBi-
dent has gone down under load of apocula-
ton which would have sunk stronger man
than ho; lIussard, tho Secretary, hna gone
off to Europe evidently satisfied That it's attrac-
tions nro superior to those OF San Domingo;
Cews and Barlow havont tlmo to talk about it.;
Dr.. Howe. who had found glorions

can Eagle, thinks that ho hasn't boon

to samnna Bay as Special Commissioner, failod
to make a.favorabio report; and tho whole Gu

u1ar Church in which tho marriage ia to bo celo-
brated. One statement Ia to tho cifoot that tho
narriago will tako place in 81. poten-
burg, nccording to tho rites Of tho
Crock Church. But this, it is said,
will oxcfto tho iro Of the loyal Brtishors. It Is
wondor that tho notion has not been suggested
that they should be married in tho Greek Church
at st. Petersburg, in tho English Church at
London, in tho Presbyterian Church ut Glasgow
or Edinburgh, and In tho Catholic Church at Dub
Lin or Cork. This would satisfy all the Hr,sstas
and tho United Kingdom Of England, Irotnnd,

would be merely cumulative, tho Ito would be all
tho stronger, and tho young people ought not to

Tho suggestion, that bocauso d third torn IL not

not expressly forbid the taking Of public money
