SummaryResumen

*The New York Herald* reported that members of the Dominican cabinet were actively petitioning the Queen of Spain to re-annex the Dominican Republic as a Spanish colony. The correspondent stated that ordinary Dominicans strongly opposed submission to either Spain or Haiti, but a small, corrupt ruling elite sought European titles and foreign protection. Spain reportedly hesitated to accept the colony due to French diplomatic pressure favoring Haitian interests.

*The New York Herald* informó que miembros del gabinete dominicano solicitaban activamente a la reina de España la reanexión de la República Dominicana como colonia española. El corresponsal afirmó que los dominicanos de a pie se oponían firmemente a someterse tanto a España como a Haití, pero que una reducida y corrupta élite gobernante buscaba títulos nobiliarios europeos y protección extranjera. Según el despacho, España dudaba en aceptar la colonia debido a la presión diplomática francesa que favorecía los intereses haitianos.
