HAVANA, March GA proclamation dated at Mas

Gen. Dulce's Commissioner to the Insurgents" has
recently appeared The document is full of bitter in
vectives against the Spanish Governmentand against
Dulce personally placing that gentleman in the un-
enviabe position of accusing himself of the most
temptible actions. Rodriguez Correa a companion
of Commissioner Armas, publishes card to-day in
the Diario wherein he expresses the belief that the
proclamation" is forgery, and saying that if it
were genuine, the statements of Armas are false and
his conduct infamous. Tho clergy have offered
the Government One-slxth of their income to defray
the expenses of the war against the insurgents Gen.
Dulce Is recruiting another battalion of volunteers
for active service. Two hundred pounds of powder
have been found secreted in the house of Mrs.
Terry in this city. late Cienfuegos paper says
there is plenty of blockade running into the interior
at that place. Information from Puerto Principe
states that the insurgent Gen. Quesada is III with
smallpox.
Senior Roberts, the Spanish ambassador to Wash
