situdes, shared their suffering, and who had
lost the use of two toes by frost in their

Thus Toodes had accumulated claims on
their gratitude, and for long time they
hesitated at sacrificing him. But although

FAILURE OF THE MENACED BOMBARD-
MENT.

FAILURE OF THE MENACED BOMBARD-
MENT.
From Our Own Correspondent.
ST. DOMINGO CITY, Friday, Feb. 1e, 1855.
trust that you have received my last letter,
which sent you the day before yesterday by the
Ellen, via Baltimore, wherein gave you inform
alton of the attempt made by General Cazneau to
bully the Dominican Government into accepting
a treaty rejected by their National Represents
ton, and promised to seize the frs. opportunity
of giving you the denouemens.
| have every reason to believe that Gen. Gag
neau did threaten the Dominican Government
with all the horrors of abomb1dmen., a Ia Grey
town, in case they should refuse; but in this
odious threat he has been completely frustrated
by my friend Captain Shaw, who, not desirous to
rival the fame Of Holins, and, / believe, highly
disapproving the step taken by our Plenipoten-
tary, very properly followed his own counsel and
put to sea three hours before the expiration Of the
term assigned to the Government by NJ. Cazneau,
in order that the presence of his ship might not
have cOmpulsatOry effect upon that Government.
Gen. Cazneau must have felt particularly un-
ea,y as the Falmouth quietly dropped down the
bay; and if ever he had hoped to double the
value of the property he has purchased in the
yillsge of San Carlos by awing the Dominican
Government into the acceptance of the rejected
Treaty, be must have had, at that moment, about
the same sensations az those which fill the mind
of a speculator when he sees his favOrite fancy
stock gradually disappearing out of sight.
The answer of the Dominican Government was
dignifed They refer Gen. Cazaeau to their
communication, addressed to Mr.. Secretary
Marcy, after the rejection of the Treaty by their
National Representation, and TO that communities
ton they declare that they adhere.
Thus has osr long plenipotentary tom again
missed FIRE | expected it.

many Of the newspapers have been filed with &C.
