Meanwhile the time expired, and the bombard

ment commenced; but the lire from the fort soon

drove them off beyond the reach of shot or shell.

No one thinks of surrendering the town, even if the

last house should be destroyed. The St. Jago gov

ernment, which has the harbors of Port au Plate

and Monte Christi, before they will yield to the

outlaw Baez, wilt call in the aid of every foreign

power; and under pressing circumstances, as the

English and French consuls favor the cause of

Baez—which is evident from the sailing of the fleet

i of liaez from St. Domingo City, against Port au

Plate and to harrass the coast—the United States

is the only government to be looked to or to be de

i pended upon.

The same correspondent, (who is not an Arneri

can citizen,) under same date, in aP. S.. adds that

ran the blockade on the 27th ult., anil got safely in

I chased by the Dominican war schooner Cleopatra,

j The success of the "Wing of the Wind" was a tine

Plate, and while the U. S. Consul at the citv of St.

house literally, as he cannot, for fear of his life, go

into the street, the United States has no ships of

war either at the city or off Port au Plate! Surely
