SummaryResumen

A letter from Santo Domingo City dated July 4, 1868 reports a spreading insurrection against President Baez, with General Polanco in the field in the south under ex-President Cabral and General Luperon, the revolutionists' commander-in-chief, sailing from St. Thomas to take command in the north. Government troops at Azua stay on the defensive while towns desert, prisoners are taken at Higuey, and the capital lives in alarm as money runs out and Baez cannot find men willing to fight.

Las tropas del gobierno en Azua se mantienen a la defensiva mientras los pueblos quedan desiertos, se toman prisioneros en Higuey y la capital vive en alarma porque se acaba el dinero y Baez no encuentra hombres dispuestos a luchar.
