Passage summaryResumen del pasaje

Writing from St. Domingo City on August 8, a *New York Times* correspondent reported that President Baez's enemies assembled in Hayti are awaiting the downfall of Salnave to cross the frontier and incite a rebellion, prompting Baez to bolster his border forces and release prisoners to join the army. Baez is also awaiting a delayed European loan and pinning hopes on the sale of a tract of land to the United States for $2,000,000 through his agent, Colonel Fabeus, with the bargain reportedly already closed with Mr. Seward. Meanwhile, General Luperon has been proclaimed Commander-in-Chief of the impending rebellion to overthrow Baez.

Escribiendo desde la ciudad de Santo Domingo el 8 de agosto, un corresponsal de *The New York Times* comunicó que los adversarios del presidente Báez congregados en Haití aguardaban la caída de Salnave para cruzar la frontera y desatar una rebelión, lo que llevó a Báez a reforzar sus destacamentos fronterizos y excarcelar presidiarios para engrosar el ejército. Báez esperaba asimismo un demorado empréstito europeo y cifraba sus esperanzas en la enajenación de una franja de tierra a los Estados Unidos por 2.000.000 de dólares por mediación de su agente, el coronel Fabens, negocio presuntamente ya concertado con el secretario Seward. Entretanto, el general Luperón había sido proclamado general en jefe del inminente alzamiento armado para deponer a Báez.

The correspondent of the New York Times

writing from St. Domingo city, Aug 8, safe:

In appearance the conn ry is qmet, yet every

now and then riots occur, and it would seem

that certain elements are ouly wanting to create

a terrible rebellion. These elements, n j doubt,

are expected Irom tbe neighboring republic of

many other enemies ot President Baez are

assembled, awaiting the downfall of Salnave,

Bnez' ally, to cros the frontier ani Incite a

great revolution, aided by the near Haytien

Government. Baez, it would seem, foresees

that the triumph of tbe haytien revo

lution will prove detrimental to his

cause, for he keeps over one thousand men on

the frontiers, and iscontinually augmentingtbat

force. Even the prisoners In the different pri

sons of this (own are released, provided thy
