24th says that Soulouque’s army left the field off
battle covered with dead and wounded.
All their
artillery, munitions, and two flags fell into our:
hands. Among the dead have been recognised I
three generals, the trophies obtained from whose
bodies, and one of the flags, belonging to the 22d i
battalion of the 30th regiment, have been receiv-1
ed at St. Domingo. The report of our spies is, I
that their whole army is disorganized.”
Verbal reports state that on the 21st April the
town of Azua was recaptured, and Gen. Santa I
marched across the lines which divide the two pro- i
vinces, expressing his determination to be the ag- i
gressor, and to kill every prisoner he takes. I

tory of the Dominicans, whom he styles in his mili
tary orders as

threatens with the “might of the Government” if!
they persist in opposing his efforts to preserve in- i
tact the rights and liberties of the Haytien people. i
