THE WAR OF SPAIN AGAINST ST. DoxrNao.-
Our advices from Port au Prince, Hayti, to the
18th Of September, show that the Spaniards
are getting into somewhat Of bad fix with
their new elephant Of ST. Domingo. II will be
remembered that revoluti on broke out among
the natives Of the island shortly after It came
into the possession Of Spain; but it was
promptly suppressed by Spanish and native
troops. Now a second revolution has been in
stalled, which promises to be more serious
Our latest advices from Havana informed us
that transports were being rapidly prepared to
embark soldiers for the revolted province, and
from all we now learn by way Of Hayti they
will have their hands full when they arrive
After the bombardment of Puerto Plata by the
Spanish feet, six DominIcans escaped in a canoe
to Hayti and reported that the insurrection was
rapidly spreading in the department Of Cibao,
and, in fact, had assumed such proportions that
the Spanish authorities had demanded imme-
date renforcements from Cuba and Porto
Rico. Two ships-ofwar had already arrived
from the former island with y thousand regular
soldiers.
at seems" says the Opinion Nationale, Of
Port nu Prince, chat, although Puerto Plats
has been bombardcd, the Dominicans have de
tcrmincd to wage partisan and bloody war In
the mountains and depths Of their forests; fol
the people are desperate and resolved 70 die

as to certain diplomatic operations in connection

ly been exciting some attention, In consequence
off memorial on the subject published lately In
the New York Times, Mr.. soward's organ, said
memorial claiming that war with France,
in consequence Of our "stone fcets,r had
only been averted by the supernatural diplc-
matte sagacty and managing talents Of Mr..
Thurlow Weed. Tho letter of our CORES
pondent places this whole matter in its
true light and furnishes admirable
ground for congratulating the administration
on It's wisdom in tho selection Of our represen.

that the threat Of war in consequence Of our
"stone aeets,n which Mr. Weed claims credit for
having caused to be elected out OF the
Emperor's message, never was In it, and that
the whole diplomatic imbrogiio had its origin

having begun their proftless battle with the
Domineans, must be content to fight 1t out 10

to leave the Spaniards and DominIcans to settle
their own disputes. This is wise on the part OF
Hayti; for If she once gets embroiled in this
fight she will be sure to be swallowed up.
