The question now presents itself Who is the
masterpower of all this turbulence3 In whose IN
tercst is IT done, and at whose prOmptlngs T. Clr-
cumstances all incline to the full conviction that
they are the manifestations of Bourbon conspiracy,
the effects OF which will soon be felt III the mother
country.
PS.-It is reported on very good authority, by
parties who have arrived IN this city tins morning
from the interior, that body of insurgents number
ing some 800 more, made their appearance on the
Sd inst in the evening at gagiiey Grande.
HOW THE MoNARcHIsTs PLoTTED-CLAIMs OF
THE INSURGENTS.
IRON AN OCCASIONAL CORRESPONDENT
MARIANAo Cuba June S.-The active enemies OF
the Spanish revolution have had but one object in
view, that of committing Cuba to the cause of mo-
narchcal reaction, and they have improved every
opportunity to stir up the volunteers against Dulco,
who personifed the Provisional Government, and
against all the Generals in the field who shared those
principles and especially such as had been odious to
Lersund They found greedy ears, for the Span
iards cannot realize that their quondam slaves
should hold at bay the thousands OF veterans sent
out to insure their determination. Accustomed TO
see no other quality in their Generals ana men, ngn
or low in office, than corruption they argue that
the traitors have always been at hand, ana that
their price has now been paid by the Cubans Let
teTs from seeming friends have been received from
Spain charging that Seuano, Prim, Iopete, ana Duce
the four married to American ladies, are the planners
of the Cuban Instruction well as OF that when
triumphed at AlcOea, in completely with wealthy
Cubans who advanced the necessary funds Tor the
latter and that the progress of the former, and the
IaueRcy used toward the Cubans, were clear lndlca
tiOnS Of their CRIMINAL completely. The agtatOls IN
Cuba have easily persuaded them that the Generals
i'm the field were busted only III making their 1Or-
tunes by the sale of safe conducts to SUBJECTED Gu
bans and even of munitions OF war; III which the IN
surgents are SO signaly deficient.
Anarchy, which has relgned during the last three
months has now thrown of all disguise, and am
assured that the Secret Comite OF Havana, may be
publicly proclaimed, under the guse OF an auNlIlaIy
Junta 10 the Government: that zen. Esplhal, on
whose talents reliance is placed, will be Shglied
off, as soon the well beloved Bamaseda shaii ar
rive from Bayamo: that Caballaro de Rodas, the
nominee of the Provisional Government will be re-
fused Abundance and finally that they w!ll hold
Cuba, Spanish but independent OF SPAN until suCh
time as monarchy that suits them shall be estaD-
lished in the mother country

the army, which is sacrificing its blood for their
salvationg When those eglOus shall return, IN

have ever breathed IN freedom conceive the dlthcu

UNAVOIDABLE NEays FROM PrERro PRINCIPE
COMMISSIONERS TO CEsPEDEs.
The Yascongade Volunteers left for CienfueeOs
very reluctantly, they claiming that the Havana
volunteers should accompany them. They promised.
however, TO garrison Villa Clara. A meeting Of
Spaniars was held TO consider the subject of a com
mission to Gen. Cespcdes for the purpose of csab-
fishing mutual preservation of the lives and prop
erty of both parties.
The recognition of the insurgents as belligerents
by the Peruvian Government causes dependency.
The order sending emp Dyes to Puerto Principe has
been revoked, in consequence of unfavorabe news
from that quarter. Gen. Quesada was concentrating
his forces closer for the siege Of the place and had
captured a convoy of provisions. Spanish soldier
who had lately returned from the Interior says the
insurgents Kill an average Of 1900 persons monthly,
and that disease Is making havoc among them.
