Passage summaryResumen del pasaje

The *New York Herald* reported that Spanish power in America has proven contemptible in the St. Domingo war, as Spain has been unable to overcome the resistance of the islanders after much effort. The article noted that a Madrid paper urged the Spanish government to relinquish the hopeless attempt and be content with holding only the three towns of St. Domingo, Samana, and Puerto Plata, noting the struggle has brought debt and no credit to Spain.

*The New York Herald* afirmó que el poderío de España en América ha resultado decepcionante en la guerra de Santo Domingo, pues tras ímprobos esfuerzos la metrópoli ha sido incapaz de quebrar la resistencia de los habitantes de la isla. El artículo apuntó que un diario de Madrid exhortó al gobierno español a desistir de esa empresa infructuosa y a conformarse con retener únicamente las tres plazas de Santo Domingo, Samaná y Puerto Plata, haciendo notar que la contienda solo ha traído deudas y ningún crédito a la corona española.
