SummaryResumen
The newspaper reported that after the arrival of reinforcements and a subsequent battle, General Puello was taken prisoner and a colonel reportedly killed himself to avoid the same fate, while the provisional government offered pardons to partisans of President Baez. According to the correspondence, President Baez was obliged to leave St. Domingo, and the provisional government was selecting a competent chief, though letters from Port-au-Prince also noted that the insurgents appealed to Emperor Faustin for aid and sought annexation to the empire of Hayti.
El periódico dio a conocer que, tras confluir refuerzos y librarse una refriega, el general Puello cayó prisionero y un coronel se quitó la vida para no sufrir igual suerte, en tanto el gobierno provisional extendía el indulto a los adeptos al presidente Báez. Conforme a la correspondencia, el mandatario Báez se vio obligado a desamparar Santo Domingo, abocándose el gobierno provisorio a elegir un jefe idóneo, si bien epístolas remitidas desde Puerto Príncipe advertían que los insurrectos imploraron socorro al emperador Faustino demandando la incorporación al Imperio de Haití.
