The New York Times says: " Tbe Income tax teems doomed. Tbe movement in the Boose for its immediate abolition has derived strength from the statements of the new Com missioner of Internal Bevenne. And now the Senate follows with a two-thirds vote making the consideration of a bill terminating the tax the special order for Taeeday next. That vote does not absolutely determine the question of repeal, hot it indicates a decided change ot opinion where hostility to reduction ot taxation has been strongest. Mr. Kelley, we trust, will not allow the subject to sleep In tbe House. Tbe income tax, always odtoot, has become unendu rable. Public opinion is united on nothing more earnestly than in the demand for its repeal. Tbe Georgia Senator*. Tbe news lrotn Washington indicates that there will be two repots from the Judiciary Committee oi the Senate on the Georgia Senatorial ques tion—a majority report recommending Hill & Miller to be seated, aad a minority report in fa vor ot a new election. Tbe question as to Blodgett’s seat seems to be in greater doubt. His party claim that unless he be seated there will'be a vacancy when the term of Senator Miller expires, the 4th March next, as the Leg islature does aot meet until next November, ms- less specially convened by the Governor. If the Legislature should be coureoed a Democrat would certainly be elected. This will be an additional argument with them for seating Blodgett. Tax BjtntrwicK and Alb ant Rulxoad.— The Albany See* says: This great work Is now progressing wttn vigorous activity. Colonel Halbert is, with upwards of sir hundred bauds, grading and laying track. He has probably reached the Atapeba with the track laying, while a large grading force is working fifteen miles this side. Colonel Charles L Schlatter returned to oar city on Wednesday morning to place contrac tors on the line eastward from the Flint, and yesterday, with Messrs Overton and Lewis, went out on the survey. Tbe latter gentlemen, we believe, have a contract extending thirty one miles east, and we are glad to announce that nomerooi applications tor subcontractors jus tify tbe supposition that this section will be completed as early as the Alapoha section. The lion. Benjamin H. HDI, In his late ad dress to tbe people of Georgia, says: “ Add to these views the well-known fact that tbe great body of the Northern people regard the treed'.m and the civil and political equality of the net to as a great national philanthropic and religious result, and yoo most agree with me that the hope oi a change at tne North, which would obliterate liteao amendments, mast be abandoned.” Mr. Hill is entirely mistaken in the pnblic opinion ol the North on tbe negro suffrage queattou. We are safe in saying tbat seven tenths ot the people oi the North are opposed to negro suffrage In every tilale, except Iowa, it has been d. tested, whenever it has been sub mitted to the people—tt.

By a treaty B»dr hetweetr-ttese- powers- in 4785, Spain cedsd.to France her territory In and sovereign ty over'the Island.. These were subsequently restored to Spain by- tbe treaty ot the allied powers In 1814; and subsequent)^ lo 1830, by an ordinance of King Charles tho-Nlb ot France, the Independence oltho French part'of the Island wu acknowledged upon- certain con dition*,, which it seems were all afterwards com plied with. Tbo independence ol 4he Dominican Repub lic, the Spanish part ot the Island, wu declared and a constitution for its government proclaimed in 1831. It entered into treaties of commerce and navigation with various foreign powers be tween that period and 1355, when it concluded a treaty with, and its independence was ac^ know led ged by Spain. In 1845, during Resi dent Polk's administration, that government having applied to oar government tor recogni tion, a special agent wu sent to the island to Inquire into iu condition, extent, population and resources. This special agent, Mr. Hogan, ma le a highly favorable report ol the resources and of the character ot the population. Durirg the administration ot Mr. Pierce, Captain, afterwards Major General Geo.~BT McClellan, wu tent to survey the Bay and Peninsula oi Samani, and a valuable report made by him. Efforts were made under the administration of Mr. Pierce to negotiate a general treaty with that Republic, which did not result favorably, and to the satisfaction of the Department of State. Afterwards, in 1856, our Commercial Agent at Son Domingo, wrote to the department that President Santana had Informed him that the treaty would immedi ately be attended to and concluded u soon u possible. Daring that year the Bponiah govern ment, through its charge and Consul General brought to bear its Influence against the adop tion oi the American treaty; and the Consuls ot Spain, England, and France, had a secret interview with the Dominican Cabinet, the ob ject of which wu the withdrawal of the Amer ican treaty. They declared that it would uever be permitted for the people ot the United Slates to have a foot hold iu the Dominican Republic. This information wu communicated to tbe government at Washington by its Commercial Agent, and the same day he wrote that he was authorised to offer to the United Slates “not only any location in the Bay of Samana for their purposes, but the cool mines on that har bor and other commercial advantages they re quire.” This wu on the 10th September 1856. On the 30th October following, the Acting Com mercial Agent notified the department of a change in the government, unfriendly to the United Stales. Daring tie war between the Stales, Spain look advantage of our internal distentions, and attempted to repoeaess tbe por tion of the bland over which abe formally held dominion. Alter sacrificing many lives Spain abandoned the contest. In August, 1865, a provisional government wu established aad a call made for the election of delegatee to a convention to form a constitu- Uon. A strong feeling wu evinced in favor of a more intimate connection with this country, and the consular officer ot the United Slates wrote to tbe Department tbat if it was still the desire o( the Government to obtain a naval sta tion in the Bay of Samana he wu sure it could be obtained. Bat soon afterward another revo lution took place and the provisional govern ment wu superseded, and a “ Protector oi the Republic,” declared. Tha Government then underwent several changes until Cabral' went into power u president. The new government lost no time in conveying to tbe United States Government iu willingness to part with some ol its possessions in Santana. In November, 1866, secret negotiations were opened with our Government by Cabral for a loon, and in the event of the former not acceding to the prop osition tor a loan, the latter offered to lease lo the former the Islands in the Bay of Samana for a naval station. The opportunity being re garded by our Government u a favorable one for securing (be advantages it had long bad in view, the Assistant Secretary of State attended by Bear Admiral Porter, in January, 1367, pro ceeded to tbe city ol San Domingo invested with powers to conclude a convention with the Dominican Republic for the cession or lease ot the peninsula ana bay of Samana. Their mis sion tailed to secure the advantage* contempla ted. Tbe Dominican Government declined to make an absolute sale ot any territory, bat offered to lease tbe Cayes Lcvanticr., which commando] the entrance to the bty of Samana and the adjacent waters. This did hot suit the purposes ol the United States Government, and the negotiations terminated without any result. Other negotiations were afterwards opened with President Cabral but they were abruptly termi nated in March, 1868, by tbe downfall of bis ad ministration aad tbe re-inalatement of General Baez u President ot the Kepa 'lie, wbo re opened segbtiations with our Government.— These negotiations resulted in the mission of General Babcock to San Domingo, who returned to the United States and reported favorably upon the disposition ol the people and govern ment toward the annexation ot tbe territory to tbe United State*. He wu directed to retnrn and negotiate a treaty for that purpose. The result ot hi* second mission is the treaty ot an nexation which is now before the United Sia'ea Senate, and which bka been so fiercely assailed by Senator Stunner. Tbe only action the Senate bu taken upon the subject It tbe appointment ol a commission, wbicb is now oo iu way to Ban Domingo, to procare further Information in relation to the condition of IbiDgi there, u preliminary to the final action of that body. The Span ah portion of the Island ol San Domingo—the Dominican Republic—is thinly populated; tbe estimates vary from 150/00 to 300,000. Tbe soil ia represented to be ex ceedingly fertile and capable of a productive power beyond any corresponding extent of the I.land ol Cab*. The prime object of the United btales bu been to secure a naval station in the Bay ol Samana, which i* said to be the key to Mon* Channel, which i« “ the gate to the Car- rtbeaa Sea, and lb* lathma* Of Panama.” President Greet ha* brought al) hi* influence to bear in favor ot ih* adoption of Ibe pending treaty, and there is liufo doubt that bia effort* wM ha crowned with success. The enemies of the treaty have impugned bia motive* by attrib uting to him a desire to advance bts own pecu niary interest* by this measure. Be this u it may, tha prize offered to oar government i* oo* which might be well coveted by any power. t .,.,T....rr;...fr....-| Circuit 10 „ * u Washington, January 9i-InUho Boom personal explanation* an being tnado regarding Dominican corruption."

Tbe evidence against Mr. Stephens, amounted to this, that be caused the arrest ol tbe Judges ol election fur Hancock conn'y for ttceiring illegal votes, votes which the; knew, and were duly warned of the fact were illegal. Tbe defense wa«, that Mr. Stephens bad a constitutional right to prevent such illegal vot ing, and tbat bis proceedures were in no way calculated to prevent any votes being cast as a new board ot managers were at once organized and tbe election proceeded with, without delay, and tbat Mr Stepbens did not in any manner, way, shape or form, prevent or intimidate any voter trom costing bis ballot. This ia tha sub stance of tbe charge and detente. The prosecu ting Attorney, Sir. Bedford, opened tbe argu ments, and was answered on Saturday by Messrs. Anderson and De Graffenried in speech es, replete with solid learning, evincing a fall knowledge of the laws governing the cose,and sprinkled over with fi ghts ol brilliant elo- qu* nee. worthy ol the nigbesl names of tbe “ old Bar ” of Georgia.
