SummaryResumen
Based on the provided excerpt, the newspaper reported that the Dominican Republic, facing perpetual aggressions and an impending invasion by Hayti, proposed annexation to the United States in exchange for the assumption of its debt. Following an inquiry by a confidential agent, the President submitted an annexation treaty to the Senate. When Hayti prepared to invade the helpless Dominican Republic, the Dominican Government appealed to the United States for protection, prompting the Executive to notify Hayti that a treaty was pending and that an invasion would not be permitted while the Senate acted.
A tenor del extracto periodístico, la República Dominicana, víctima de continuos amagos y de una inminente invasión por parte de Haití, propuso su incorporación a los Estados Unidos a cambio de que estos asumieran su pasivo financiero. Tras una misión de pesquisa a cargo de un agente confidencial, el presidente elevó el tratado de anexión al Senado. Ante los aprestos haitianos para asaltar a la indefensa República Dominicana, las autoridades dominicanas solicitaron socorro a los Estados Unidos, moviendo al Ejecutivo a advertir formalmente a Haití de que existía un tratado en trámite y que no consentiría agresión alguna mientras el Senado resolviese.
