New YORK, May 3l.-Dispatches from
Caracas, May 3, state that the revolu-
tionists have triumphed. On the 9th
ult that city was taken by the revolu-
tionary forces under Gen. Guzemar
Blanco, after sanguinary conflict OF
forty-eight hours. Over five hundred
men we're killed, and much damage was
done to the city. The government is
now composed as follows: Gen. Guzemar
Blanco, Chief of Executive; A. l.. Guze-
mar, Secretary of the Interior; Jushiel
J. Guthnez. Secretary of Finance; Pr
nenbal Roth, Secretary of Public Credit;
~. T. Pnlido, Secretary of War and
Marine; d. 2. Urbanega, Secretary of
Foreign Affairs; J. Lanayeya, Secretary
Of Commerce. Part OF, Laguyria's forces
surrendered without resistance.
President Ruperto Manages appeared
before the city with 400 men from the
interior. On learning of the events
which had transpired, the city surren-
dered, and all we're released on parole.
The Dutch mail steamer Haraeuehien,
was detained by the authorities at La
guyra, having arms on board for the
fallen government
The new government has reduced by
recent decrees her import duties 20 per
cent all export duties abolished; -four
declared free Of duty.
New YORK, May 3l.-Mail advices
from Mexico contain long accounts Of
the actions Of the revolutionists, who
spring up like mushrooms In one case
band Of fifty surrendered, when forty
six of them were killed. The Govern
ment troops are actively pursuing the
Pronunciastos, defeating them in every
encounter and capturing numbers.

summers Views ON the Cuba cues
ton.

tion.
New YoRK, May 3l.-The Herald's
correspondent at Washington gives the
substance Of an interview with Senator
Sumner, for the purpose Of ascertaining
the views of the latter relative TO the
recognition Of Cuban belligerency. His
views Of opposition have undergone no
change; on the contrary, he finds oil
manner Of plausible arguments in oppo-
sition TO such action. His attention was
called to the cases Of Speakmar and
Wythe, the Americans who were muir
dered at Santiago de Cuba. He said
the circumstances surrounding this
case we're peculiar. They were
found in suspicious company. We could
not make the same demand upon the
Spanish as If they resided in Cuba and
were pursuing peaceable business. On
attention being directed TO the case Of
Consul Phillips, he adduced argument TO
show that had a parallel case occurred
in the United States during the war the
offender would have been subjected to
imprisonment or kicked out Of the cOnn-
try. He don't believe that recognition
has the slightest chance in the Senate
His objections were based upon eeonom-
ical reasons, and thinks the adminisira-
ton pursues the wisest course.
