We learn from Capt. Hathaway, of schr. L. B. Lindsey, from St. Domingo City, up to the 12th ult., that a revolution had broken out there. The troops and the navy had declared in favor of Gen. Santa Anna for President. The President, Hernannes, met the troops on the outskirts of the city, and declared that he was still their commanding officer. Gen. Santa Anna instantly withdrew from the army, and went to his plantation. The troops then disbanded. Not being satisfied, they again requested Santa Anna to head them, which he did, and immediately marched for the city. Previous to his march, and by the orders of President Hernannes, the city of Don Carlos was burnt, to prevent the army from marching into it. It was supposed that the city would eventually fall into the hands of the troops, and that Santa Anna would be declared President of the Dominican Government.—N. Y. Jour. of Com.

Still Later.
Ey Dates from St. Domingo to June Ist state, that
the city is much excited concerning the action of the
President about sacrificing the country to the Hay
tiens; he and his generals having deserted the army
and many strong posts.
The Haytiens made for the city, but Santa Ana
drove them back. On his returning to the city, he
was refused an entrance by Jimines, who had made
several arrests of men and women, and also attempted
to arrest Mr. Elliot, the American Consul.
After some parley, Santa Ana determined to lay
siege and take the town, and his ordering a surrender
being refused, he was getting ready to commence op
erations. The Foreign Consuls have gone on board
vessels of war, and the women and children and
Congress had gone outside.
