We have received files of the St. Christopher Gazette to the 28th ult., containing interesting details of the revolution now in progress in the Dominican republic of St. Domingo, to remove President Baez and restore Santana. The Baez party, being hard pressed, had formed an alliance with the Emperor Soulouque, who had despatched assistance to his ally. The Royal Standard of the 22d inst. says: By the sloop Seaflower, from Port Platta, we have advices from that place to the 17th instant. From a correspondent we learn that the revolution is gaining ground, and that the Baez party are losing their influence. The revolutionary party have possession of the whole of the Cibao, and have established a Provisional Government at Santiago, of which General Jose Desiderio Valverde is President. The city of St. Domingo is closely besieged by the revolutionary party, and it is expected that it will soon be in their possession. The Baez party have called in the assistance of the Haytiens, and it is said that Soulouque has sent them 1,500 men. This has caused much indignation among the Dominicans, and many of the Baez party have, in consequence, joined the revolutionists.
