We have advices from Port au Prince to the 14th and from St. Domingo City to the 5th ult. Our correspondent at the first named place gives a retrospective summary of the governors who ruled and the policy which prevailed on the island anterior and subsequent to the servile revolution. He states that the Emperor in engaging in the late contest depended too much on the interested representations of disaffected Dominicans; but, although defeated, he was not disposed to listen to dictation from a foreign Power as to his future action in the affairs of his government. It was suspected that the late hostile movement by the British and French officials towards Faustin I. proceeded solely from jealousy of the progress and influence of the United States both in the Congress and Cabinet. The Dominican authorities had ratified a treaty with the United States. It is believed that the Dominican President, President Santana had proclaimed death to all outlaws or filibusters landing on the island. The decree is mainly directed against ex-President Baez, as it was reported that he was encouraged by France, England and Spain, to attempt a revolutionary demonstration from St. Thomas.
