SummaryResumen
Herald correspondence from Samana reports that the United States Commission, with its geologists, botanists, naturalists and press correspondents, has been at work since arriving, sending parties out to explore the country bordering the bay up to the mouth of the Yuna river and into the interior. The commissioners go ashore daily to talk with the villagers and examine their small cleared plantations, while the correspondent cautions that newcomers, dazzled by the warm climate and lush growth, are viewing everything in rose color, though the soil is rich, vegetation grows rapidly, and palms, oranges and coconuts abound.
Una correspondencia del Herald desde Samaná informa que la Comisión de los Estados Unidos, con sus geólogos, botánicos, naturalistas y corresponsales de prensa, ha estado trabajando desde su llegada, enviando grupos a explorar el territorio que bordea la bahía hasta la desembocadura del río Yuna y hacia el interior. Los comisionados desembarcan a diario para hablar con los aldeanos y examinar sus pequeñas plantaciones despejadas, mientras el corresponsal advierte que los recién llegados, deslumbrados por el clima cálido y la vegetación exuberante, lo ven todo de color de rosa, aunque el suelo es rico, la vegetación crece con rapidez y abundan las palmas, las naranjas y los cocos.

THE PARTY AT WORK.
The Commission, with its corps of geologists,
botanists, and naturalists, and the press correspon
dents, have been earnestly at work since we' arri
ved at Samana. Several parties have been sent out
from the. Cominisiou to explore the country border
ing the bay, up to the mouths of the Yttua river
and in the interior. Every day the Commissioners
and others have been ashore to talk with the people
of the village and to examine the so-called planta
tions, which are merely little cleared spots, imper
fectly cultivated, and ascertain what are the nat
ural products of the soil.
COULKCK PE ROSE.
Almost everything has a rose-colored hue to these
gentlemen. Most of them have never seen a trop
ical country before, and this looks like a paradise
to them. The sudden transition from cold and
dreary winter at home to this warm climate and
luxuriant verdure has made them very enthusias
tic. Even the naked or half-dad, la/.y natives ap
pear to them a charming sort of people. 11 is amus
I ing to hear them as they return to the ship exclaim
in glowing language about the beauty and richness
of the island. The Englsli language is strained to
the utmost to find superlative adjectives with which
to express their impressions. One man reports
that he found a mahogany tree in the almost ini
