SummaryResumen

The *Polynesian* reported that the Dominican Republic was preparing to repel an expected invasion by Hayti under Faustin, with Santa Ana placed in chief command of the army. Additionally, a treaty with England acknowledging Dominican independence was celebrated at a public dinner attended by the British Consul—who stated England would not interfere in the contest—while no American consul or shipmasters were present. Under this new treaty, British vessels are allowed to enter Dominican ports at a fifty percent lower tonnage duty than American vessels.

El *Polynesian* reseñó que la República Dominicana se aprestaba a rechazar la temida invasión acaudillada por Faustino, habiéndosele encomendado a Santana la comandancia suprema de las tropas. Celebróse asimismo con un banquete de Estado la ratificación del tratado con Inglaterra que sancionaba la soberanía dominicana, al que asistió el cónsul británico —quien manifestó que su gobierno se abstendría de intervenir en la refriega—, registrándose la ausencia del cónsul o patrones de barcos norteamericanos. Conforme a las cláusulas estipuladas, las naves británicas gozaban de una franquicia del cincuenta por ciento en el canon de tonelaje en fondeaderos dominicanos frente a los cargueros de Estados Unidos.
