Dom;Nic03aos ::

subyugada, comprimida la patria
: bajo el peso de los tormentos one no
me eran indiferentes sin Cons titu-
cion, sin leyes; diezmados sus he
roes, encarcelados, proscriptos mu-
chos dc los preclaros hijos de la Ma
cion ardiendo po: todos los extre
mas de la Repdblica la incendiaria
tea de la guerra civil; la tilanla, en-
fin, cerni6ndose, solazandose y lie
nando de luto y de desolacion nuestros
lares el 25 de noviembre de 1873,
epoca tausta que con expansion re-
cuerdo, cediendo a los impulses de
mi corazon, correspond al grito de
libertad que desde las faldas de elsa
bel de Tore clamaron nuestros pue-
bios.
No me arrepiento de haber abra-
zado la noble causa de la redencion
de mi pals; y me enorguliezco since
ramente cada vez que recuereto haber
promovido y lleyado a cabo en- este
suelo desgraciado, hoy mas feliz que
aver, la grande idea de la fusion, ter
mino de nuestras discordias, destello
de lisonjeras esperanzas.
Hombre de principles, en- el curse
de mi administration no me he des-
mentido, y la libertad que prometi
al pueblo dom:nicano no ha perecido
nj perecera va Gu la Repdblica: Ge-
fe del Estado, he administrado con
unprecedented la cosa pdblica, y con-
secuente con mis- ideas he llamado,
empleado y favorecido a los buenos de
todos los partjdos: asi pues, tengo
la satisfaction de declarar, que no
tengo un 50 o cargo qne p Sc sobre mi
conciencia.
81 os he dado Ia paz que necesita-
bais ; la libertad porque habes sus-
plrado tanto tempo; la union que es
la base de yuestro porvenir; acepto
en- cambio gustoSo y por toda recon-
peDsa ia dIcha de haber hecho el
bien.
Las aberraciones de la politica que
no pretendo inyesijgar; los caprichoS
{ impaciencias 1ue no qu;ero colnba-
tir; las asplraciones todas que yo
respeto; la tranqullidad de mi espi-
ritu; y sobre todo ell sosiego de la
Nacion; me impulSan, me aconscjan
deponer hoy ell maudo. 70 10 depon-
go, dominicanos, y os abrazo a todos
en- nombre lie la Patria.
