SummaryResumen
A correspondent in Samana finds the climate most agreeable and the bay breezes balmy, but the land mostly dense wood with only a few poorly cultivated acres, though the rich soil could grow sugar cane, coffee, cocoa and oranges abundantly if labor could be found. He describes an interview in which President Baez pressed the country's boundless resources and the people's wish for annexation, and he questions the enormous land grant to Fabens, said to cover a tenth of the whole republic, which Baez defended but was also said to regret.
Un corresponsal en Samana encuentra el clima muy agradable y las brisas de la bahía templadas y refrescantes, pero el territorio es en su mayor parte bosque denso con solo unos pocos acres mal cultivados, aunque el suelo rico podría producir caña de azúcar, café, cacao y naranjas en abundancia si se encontrara mano de obra. Describe una entrevista en la que el presidente Baez insistió en los recursos ilimitados del país y en el deseo de anexión del pueblo, y cuestiona la enorme concesión de tierras a Fabens, que según se dice abarca una décima parte de toda la república, la cual Baez defendió pero también, según se dijo, lamentó haber hecho.
