CUBA is virtually divided into two States
or districts, the eastern portion of the is
land being held by the insurgents and the
western portion by the Spanish authorities.
Trding engagements frequently occur,
but they are invariably without decisive

and reassert their authority in the eastern
department.

SHARP FIGHTING OUTSIDE OF PARIs-DE-
FEAT OF THE REDS.

Paris, Sunday Evening (via London,
April 3).-Fghting has been going on
since yesterday evening, at various points
in Place de la Concorde. This morning
cannonading was distinctly audible, the
sound coming from the direction of Neuil-
ly. The fortress of Mont Valerien opened
on the columns of Nationals which were
marching on Courbevoie, and kept up a
continuous fire for several hours, to pre-
vent them from establishing themselves in
position there. The Nationals were final
ly compelled to retreat, after suffering q
considerable loss in killed and wounded.
A special dispatch to the London Times
says: "The fighting at Courbevoie was
sharp. Reports are conflicting as to which
side fred the first shot. The nationals
were at first driven into Courbevoie, where
they maintained themselves some time.
protected by the houses. They were at
last shclled out by Mount Valerien, and
fell back to the bridge at Neuilly, where
they kept up hot fusilade. From this
position they were again forced to retreat,
and finally withdrew into the city aud shut
the gates. The Versailles troops did not
attempt to follow. The estimate, proba-
bly, exaggerated,puts the loss of the national
guards at 200."
