SummaryResumen
A Samana dispatch reports that the soil is rich and deep even on the hills, and that the botanists and naturalists have found interesting new specimens, though no reports from them have yet been made up. The writer calls the lease of the bay's privileges to the United States, at a large yearly rent, very much like a 'job,' and reports that Frederick Douglass spoke in the little plaza at Samana to about 130 people, talking of the glory of the United States and of freedom from slavery.
Un despacho de Samaná informa que el suelo es rico y profundo incluso en las colinas, y que los botánicos y naturalistas han encontrado especímenes nuevos e interesantes, aunque todavía no se han preparado informes de ellos. El autor dice que el arrendamiento de los privilegios de la bahía a los Estados Unidos, por una renta anual elevada, se parece mucho a un negocio turbio, e informa que Frederick Douglass habló en la pequeña plaza de Samaná ante unas 130 personas, hablando de la gloria de los Estados Unidos y de la libertad de la esclavitud.

OPINION ABOUT "JoBI.''
Though there niay be no J>Uf, as far as our fov
ernmcnt otnclals are concerned, in land speculations
at the town and Inner bay of Samana, the lease ol
the Uttie coaling Island and privilege# of tne bay to
the United States for $i?o,ojo a year looks very
much like a Job. This Is an enormous sum of money
for such property and privileges. Fifty thousan l
dollars a year would be too much, and the Domini
can government probably would Oftve been glad to
have got leaa. Other# besides B*ea, tuere la reason
to suspect, have their hands tn this job. O ne year s
reni of t^fi lsa?S ought to be enough to buy^up
pearly all the land irOufiJ tlU hSrlxJP.^*"
