More on Samaná BayMás sobre Bahía de Samaná

SummaryResumen

Writing from Havana on December 18, the correspondent describes Samana Bay after the Stars and Stripes were raised over it, having entered the bay aboard the United States steamer Albany, whose Captain Balch planted the flag. He surveys the bay's deep sheltered coves, among them Cacao and the Carenero, the inner inlet General McClellan had selected for a United States naval station, and the town of Santa Barbara, the capital of the peninsula, with its cottages set among fruit trees along the shore.

Escribiendo desde La Habana el 18 de diciembre, el corresponsal describe la bahía de Samaná después de que se izó sobre ella la bandera de los Estados Unidos, tras entrar en la bahía a bordo del vapor americano Albany, cuyo capitán Balch plantó la bandera. Recorre las ensenadas profundas y abrigadas de la bahía, entre ellas Cacao y el Carenero, la ensenada interior que el general McClellan había escogido para una estación naval de los Estados Unidos, y el pueblo de Santa Bárbara, la capital de la península, con sus casas entre árboles frutales a lo largo de la costa.
