THE CUBAN REVOLUTION.
WASHINGTON, June 2.-Letters re-
ceived here this morning from Cuba
state that the forces under Gen. Jol-
dan had succeeded in joining the Or
ban forces, after several fights, in al
of which the Spaniards were repulsed
with serious loss.
Gen. Jordanfs loss was slight, not
over 45 in killed and wounded. He
also saved his artillery, arms and
ammunition. He had with him. sew
enteen thousand new rifles, of the
most approved pattern.
The agitation in Havana was par
TALLY abated.
Dulce has resigned, and Don Espi-
mar is acting Captain-Ganeral rRtil
the arrival of DeRoada.
The city was tranquil, but disorder
threatens to break out at any mo-
ment, as the volunteers are incensed
greatly against Gen. Pelang, who
has disappeared, and whose where
abouts are unknown.
WASHINGTON, June 3.--AdviceS
from Havan, via Key West, say that
Gen. Pilnez, whose life was threat
ened by the volunteers, went to Glen
fiIgOs, where the volunteers there re-
fused to allow him to land: He re-
turned to Havana where the volun-
teers demanded his life, alledging
that he had sold his country, and had
received one hundred and twenty
thousand dollars to allow the rebels
TO escape. A compromise was ulti
mately effected yesterday evening.
The volunteers are greatly excited,
and have assembled in front of Dull
ce's palace, shouting death to Pilnez.
This morning the commander of the
volunteers entered the palace and
demanded Dulce's immediate resig=
nation, declaring that he was allied
with traitors. His resi- gnati0n was
soon after promulgated. No violence
was committed. The volunteers now
have full control of the force, and are
really the governing power of the
| Island.
Several military and civil officers
of high rank are accused of cOmiv-
ance with the rebels and will be i'm
mediately relieved. The insurgents
in several recent engagements gained
a slight advantage over the troops.
WASHINGTON; June 4.--Advices
from Havana Of the Sd say that the
landing of the filfbustefs causes q
depression in business. The steamer
Montezuma met d schooner which
had just landed munitions of war in
the ueighbOrhOod of Bay Missile.
A fight had occurred hear Villa
Clara between twelve hundred insur-
gents and troop Of Spaniards. A
passenger reports that only three of
the latter escaped!
FilibusterS who recently landed at
the Bay of Missile reached the interior
abandoning fonr guns for want of
transportation.
THE ALABAMA CLAIMS.
LONDON; jane 3.--The Alabama
diplomatic correspondence is publish
ed, commenting on which the Times
SAYS: "When we compare the exact
ing and critical spirit Of America
with the conceding temper of Eng
land, and consider that all that was
yielded was insufficient to prevent
the rejection of the treaty, we despair
of the success of any negotiation i'll
which England maintains due regard
for her own rights and honor"
LONDON. June 4-NewSpaperS are
still discussing the relations existing
, between England and the United
States. The Standard says the con
: duet OF the United States in the mat
ter of the late treaty, in laIse of tim,
3 may be forgotten, but at present vii
: hardly fail to be linked to feelings o
l Just Indignation and resentment,
: The Post says no attempt for set
+ tlement of the Alabama claims mus
| come from the United States, ant
/ hopes due precaution will be tal>el
4 to secure England against ace, ,pt.n:
e a treaty almost with humility, whiel
S will be rejected at last with contu
e mely.
