SummaryResumen

The newspaper reported that a continued outbreak and threatened force created a great panic across Santo Domingo, menacing the white population, while severe earthquakes occurred on the 11th and 12th, with a special report indicating that St. Domingo City was probably destroyed. In Haiti, an insurrection was confirmed, and a violent scene in the Legislative Chambers involved President Salnave inciting a rabble to attack the House of Assembly, during which the American Consul was fired at and the Diplomatic Corps presented a unanimous protest. Additionally, it was noted that Port au Prince was quieting a treaty with the United States, which remained in suspense.

El diario consignó que la persistencia de disturbios y la exhibición de fuerzas armadas desataron el pánico en Santo Domingo con amenazas sobre la población blanca, sumándose fuertes terremotos los días 11 y 12, con un parte extraordinario sugiriendo la probable destrucción de la ciudad de Santo Domingo. En Haití se confirmó la insurrección y una violenta trifulca en el hemiciclo legislativo donde el presidente Salnave incitó al populacho a asaltar la asamblea, disparándose contra el cónsul estadounidense y elevando el cuerpo diplomático una protesta unánime. Se refirió asimismo que en Puerto Príncipe se aplacaban los ánimos mientras el tratado con los Estados Unidos quedaba en suspenso.
