SummaryResumen

A correspondent writing from the City of St. Domingo on July 15, 1848, reports on the president's decree of February 22 organizing the civic guard, which required foreigners resident in the country for three months to enroll and serve alongside citizens. He says the decree caused great excitement among foreign residents, that the French representative protested and told them not to comply, that the United States commercial agent at Puerto Plata also protested on behalf of American citizens, and that the president then modified the penalties for foreigners in a supplemental decree of March 28.

Un corresponsal que escribe desde la ciudad de Santo Domingo el 15 de julio de 1848 informa sobre el decreto presidencial del 22 de febrero que organizaba la guardia cívica, el cual exigía que los extranjeros residentes en el país desde hacía tres meses se inscribieran y sirvieran junto a los ciudadanos. Dice que el decreto causó gran excitación entre los residentes extranjeros, que el representante francés protestó y les indicó no cumplirlo, que el agente comercial de los Estados Unidos en Puerto Plata también protestó en nombre de los ciudadanos estadounidenses, y que el presidente entonces modificó las penas para los extranjeros en un decreto suplementario del 28 de marzo.
