Passage summaryResumen del pasaje

The newspaper reported that two gunboats were dispatched to the western part of the island due to fears of an outbreak, while crops were coming forward to provide subsistence and unite the people in maintaining their independence, despite reported hostilities between native chiefs Generals Peuisutai and Cotral. It also noted that Spanish commander Gen. Gandana blockaded the principal forts because the Dominican government refused his peace treaty demands, preventing the exportation of American and European goods, prompting Dominicans to commission privateers and send an agent to issue letters of marque to the United States and Europe.

El diario consignó que se despacharon dos cañoneros hacia el occidente de la isla ante el recelo de un estallido armado, al tiempo que las cosechas prosperaban para sustentar a la población y cohesionarla en la defensa de su independencia, no obstante los informes de rivalidad entre caudillos locales como los generales Pimentel y Cabral. Apuntó también que el jefe español general Gándara bloqueó las principales fortalezas marítimas debido a que el gobierno dominicano rehusó sus condiciones de paz, frenando la salida de efectos estadounidenses y europeos e induciendo a los dominicanos a armar buques corsarios y enviar un emisario a otorgar patentes de corso en los Estados Unidos y Europa.
