HAVANA. April 2s.-By the steamer Mdis,.
which arrived yesterday, we h. ave news from st.
Domingo TO the l4th Instant A synopsis OF which
is subioined:-
The Monitor of the Gath OF March states that a
revolutionary moyemen'., which occurred lately
on the south frontier, Gas generally disapproved
of by the people, as '4as shown by the spontane-
BUSINESS with which they had come forward TO
suppress 1t at the first call OF the Government.
AS soon as the latter heard of the events on the
line, Just when the necessary measures were
taken TO face the difficulties, some outlaws had
the hardihood to surprise the towns of San Girls
tebal, Bani, ard San Jose de Ocoa, while the
inhabitants were occupied at their ordinary
labors.
All at once the cry of revolt was heard among
them, TO which no resistance could be made for
the moment The Rebels had it all their own
Way as far as from Jaina to the confines of
Ocoa. The object was to do the same mischief
in the vicinity of Azua, and, in the belief that
they would find the inhabitants uuprepared
sent small force forward, which succeeded in
reaching Charcas, and there they halted. But
the authorities of AZua, who soon observed their
movements, quickly sent some troops garrsoned
there to oppose them.
While these proceedings were being carried
forward Colonel Jose Joaquin Sanchez took
command OF an organized body OF the citizens
Of Muniel, and succeeded subsequently, in re.
storing order among the inhabitants of San jose
de Occa. At the same tune Colonel Manuel
Roman did the same thing at Bani. This seemed
to be, and no doubt II was unknown TO the
rebels, a. the same le t Azua with the intention
OF giving Ugh to the Government forces.
On their way the rebels ascertained what had
occurred AT Buni and Maniel, and flGukei these
places. Tho"e of their party who mad been
pressed into the movement now deserted IN
large numbers. The commanding officers find

theless, hoping to receive reinforCCments in the
vicinity OF San CIlstobal. They were again
doomed to reverses, az, at the same time that
tranquility was established in San Jose dc 0coa
and Bani, the proper authorities sent column,
under the command of General Antonio GuZ.

The arrival Of these troops on the bank of the
river opposite San Crlstobal, instead OF being
attended with a fierce conflict, proved great
surprise in one sense, IN that the rebels IN arms
and who formed line OF battle as If for the object
OF defense, welcomed the Government troops
and shouted UiUdS IN a highly friendly and
lively manner. General GuZman's command
crossed the river, entered San Crstobal and
received public demonstrations of welcome from
the people at large. At the same time they
showed their willingness to adhere to the ad-
minstration OF Baez, The effect was disastrous
to the reUel columns and leaders, who found
their plans completely thwarted, and themselves
without followers.
manding officer. was captured, and Colonel Mar
cos Cabral, another rebel, made his escape and
put himself under the protect N of foreign
nag. The remnant OF the rebel force now on
the frontier is the only antagonistic power the
Government has to contend with; and as il is
small, disorganiZed, and without esprit it will
soon be mastered-at least so the people and the
papers say.
The commanding general of Azua has been
reinforced with troops sent from La Provincial
del Seybo and with all needful munitions OF war.
At last accounts it was promised that the diff.
cuitles arising from party purposes would be set
tied, that compromises would be made, and that
peace would enSue
In a later number of the San Domingo Monitor
(of the 9TH ult.) we find paragraph to the effect
that the Government troops had taken perma-
nent possession Of San Juan and Neyba. The
well-disposed portions of the inhabitants of both
places, who fled to the mountains Tor safety,
were returning to their homes.
In continuation of the military operations
on the part of the Government, two columns
were sent out, one moving to the right via San
Juan, under command OF Generals Baez and
GuSman, and the other to the left via Neyba,
the latter being commanded by General Bias
Moldanado. The column which moved on the
right demonstrated against Coroso, and the
other simultaneously against Barrancas. Both
OF these places are situated on the lett bank of
the river Vague. Subsequently the columns
united and again divided and continued their
marches along the lett bank of the river. In
this movement the advance had a skirmish with
the enemy.
The Monitor of the 14th in an article contain
ing comments on the military situation of the
hour, said:-"The military operations now being
carried on in the South, if they arc not bringing
about as speedy pacidcation as could be wished
1t is only because OF the difficulties attending
in so broken a country and not
from lack OF endeavor. The rebels who were at
and in the neighborhood of Neyba have broken
off into small guerilla bands, and they will not
be paci6ed until they are either all captured or
and the Government ia ready 70

results. The column which moved to the right
from general army headquarters, now has com

and to gain this object many of them have TEN.
