TOTSSAINT LOUVERTURI, otweam. IN CHIEF OF
THE ARMY OF ST. DOMINGO, TO HIS FELLOW-
CITIZENS OF THI, FRENCH TARTOFST.DOMINGO.
St. Domingo, February 2.
Citizens.-4 announce to you with great fatisfac-
tion that I have taken poffeffion of the Spanilli
part of St. Domingo, in the name of the French
Republic. A column commanded by the General
of Brigade, MOYSE, marched to the North againft
St. Yago ; a fecond column commanded by the
Chief of Brigade PAUL l'Ou v sax. vas, to the fouth.
weft,' sigainl Santa Domingo. Each of them
were attacked by the Spaniards, who teemed de.
termined to oppofe our taking poffeffion. The
columns, notwithfianding, purfued their rout. The
meafures of wifdom, of prudence, and of hums-
city, which I had taken, prevented the effufion of
blood; and with very little lofs, I gained polfellion
of the whole Bland. Perfuallons alone, after the
firll attack, was the only means I made ufe of.—
My enterprize was crowned by the molt brilliant
fitceeti. The General of Brigade Morse, con.
duded himfelf with that courage, that moderation,
and that bravery, which always charaderifes a
French General. He executed with precifion all
my orders. He has rendered me a clear and pre.
cife account of all his operations, and the condo&
of the officers and foldiers under his command has
given me infinite pleafure. Difcipline and fubor-
dination have been obferved with a fcrupulous at.•
tention, and perfons and property rigidly refpeded.
The Adutant-General HERECOULT, whom I fes*
to the Spanith Governor JOACIM GARCIA, MillE
my inftrudions to negotiate the taking poll-erste
of the Bland, has fulfilled his million with honour,
wifdom, and prudence.—[Here follows a particu.
ler detail of the marches of the iroops.)—ln con.
fell hence of this detail, which it gives me pleafure
to make public, becaufe it is true, declare that
the officers and foldiers compofing the arm/. of &.
Dcmingo, have deferved well of their Country.
(Signed) TOUSSAINT Louvsaruas,
General in Chief.
