As / am one Of the only two Amerl-
can merchants residing at Porto Plata,
and being temporarily in this place,
find myself in the midst of a great
revolution against President Baez. /
give you now history of the affair as
received from General Garcia, COM
mander of this place. The revolution
is led by the best men of the country,
many OF them of position aud wealth.
General Crespo, the commander-in-
chief, is large woodcutter, man of
great influence and use, much esteem
ed by the people of this section of the
republic, the present. movement hav>
ing been started by him. To within a
Jew months he has been strong friend
of the BaeS government, and to with
IN few days, quietly ut his home
but has become displeased with Presi
dent Baez. This is the general case
throughout the country, to-day-dis
pleased ON account of the dishonesty
and bad faith of the government. Al.
though but few Dominicans can read,
and the few papers that we have are
only allowed to publish such articles as
are pleasing to the government, yet the
people are well posted on everything
that takes place in the government, even
TO the most recent transactions. Let
me state here that tins movement is "a
child of the revolution started by Gen.
Juan PolancO, four months ago The
cry then was that the SANTANA Bay
Company was simply pretense, but
that really President Baez was to sell
the country TO the Americans and place
the leash in his pocket. Gen. Juan
Polanco has had but few men for the
last few months, but they have
been able to hold the country
between the Yaku River and
the Haytien line, the Gov
eminent not being able to drive him
away. These troops have not been
paid even their support has not been
attended to-. For the weeks that they
have been in camp only biscuit and a
salt mackerel has been allowed each
man daily. As the receipts of the gov
eminent have been very large for the
last two years, the people want to know
what has been done with the money,
the amount of which has been rs fol-
lows From the United States, 1900,
600, SANTANA Bay Company, $50, 1000 ;
duties, about 81, 100, 600; a grand total
of about 81, 100000. As Baea will not
account (fOr all the money goes into
his handsl, and it is well known that
he has just purchased a fine estate in
France worth 500, 900 francs, with rea-
son the people believe that he has
stolen the country's money.

Origin Of the Word schooner.

A writer in the Boston Advertiser.
referring to the story told by Webster
and Worcester in regard to the origin
of the word schooner, corrects that
photographer as follows:
1.-THE happy thought of Cape Ann
ship-master, which century and a
half ago designed new and successful
rig for vessels, and gave new word to
our language, is certainly deserving of
special notice and of permanent
record-anG the story, if told at all.
should be told rightly. Fifty years
ago | used often to meet Mr.. Gorham
Parsons, then a well-known citizen of
Brighton, and a nephew of the great
lawyer and judge, Theophilus Parsons.
Mr.. Parsons was born, | think, in
Gloucester-certainly his father, Eben
Parsons, began there his mercantile
career More than once | heard Mr..
Parsons, who was a man Of intelligence
and of retentive memory, tell the
story of Robinson's schooner. His
account, which was very circum-
stantial, with names and details that |
have forgotten, was substantially this.
After the new vessel was fully rugged
ami ready for use, day was fixed for
the first trial. Much interest had
been excited 10y the innovation, and
all were curious TO see how she would
act, but Captain Robinson and his
family, who could watch her motions
from their own windows, were more
than curious. As the vessel tackled it
was at once evident that she could run
remarkably near the wind. In the
nautical dialect of the time and the
place, schOoning was the term gener
ally used TO designate that feat, aud the
slang word was familiar to all. As the
little vessel shot ahead almost in the
teeth of a strong breeze, the Captains
daughter exclaimed. "Oh, father, see
how she schoonsl" "Schoon il she
does, was the answer, "and schooner
she shall be called !"
