“CUBA: THE REVOLUTION IN HAVANA. Dulce Declares it the End of Spanish Rule. A Separate Nationality Contemplated by : the Volunteers. Patriot Supplies Safe in the interior. - The steamshtp Columbia, Captain Van Sice, arrived yesterday from Havana, bringing the im- it mtelligence of the consummation of the ish volunteer fevolution in Havana and the pre- liminary discussions among them as to the next step to be taken. Full details will be found in the interesting correspondence we publish below. ®he Volunteer Revolution in Havana—Second Day’s Proceedinge=Dulee Resigns—Madame Duico Yasulted=Thoy Return to Spain— Doubts of the Voluntcers—A Massacre of Oubans Threatencd—Proposed Triumvirate Vivas for Isabella=Probable Division of the (sland. Havana, June 4, 1869. Within a few hours grave events have occurred in this olty, and the island Is at tais moment without a legal government. During the past Weck various meetings have taken place with a view of compelling Dulce to relinquish his command. Following thesd several officials callea upon him and endeavored to convince him that he ought not to continue, on ac- count of his health, At first he resisted, but Sdally gave way and sent a telegram to Madrid giving ip is resignation, at the same time stating thal hé was locood 16 do so. The provisional government at once appointed Caballero de Rodas, which was tele- graphed and officially announced here, it being understood that Dulce was to remain until the arrival of his successor, as 1s customary. A day or two later an order was communicated to Don Gonzalo Castaiion, editor of La Voz de Cuba, to leave the island by the first steamer, as alxo to the curate of Monserrate and others. This was vers displeasing to the volunteers, and a committee of the Fifth battalion, which Dulce had treated with great Kindness, presented itself to the palacé and stated that they would not leave until the order was re- voked, as they were determmed to resist it by force if necessary. Their demands were granted; and Castafon, supported by Duran Cuervo, both very hostile to Dulce, found themselves stronger than ever. Just at this time arrived from the fleld of operations in the interior General Pelaez, who is ac- cused of “making money” enough within a few months to enable him to send $40,000 to Spain, and considered by the volunteers as @ traitor to his coun- try. Meanwhile Pelaez had taken refuge on board tlie tron-clad Victoria, The following day the volunteers determined to serenade Lesca, but the Governor objected, fearing disorders. They weré very much incensed at this, and determined, in their wratn, to demand the head of Pelaez, and, failing in. this, to com) Duice to relinguish the command. Large cae Oe em gathered in the plaza, and Duice what was going on sent jor the cavalry, the and guarala civil @ guard of marines for his personal safety. Findlt that the mob increased in numbers ‘and Gem stra tion, he ordered the cavalry to scatter it; but the officer 19 command would not obey. Dulce called him a coward, and stated that he would order him shot; but all to no purpose, After consultation it ‘was Gnally determined to call all the volunteers together, and buglers were sent through the city summon them, Such a thing bad never happen here before, and it caused great alarin among the citizens. After the volunteers had been formed the colonel and one soldier from each battalion were appointed a commitiee to wait on Dulce and demand that he either deliver up Pelaez or surrender the command, He unequivocally refused to accede to the first, and as to the other endeavored to persuade them to withdraw it, but to no parpose. He finally told thom that because he was a Spaniard and de- sired to avoid fooding the streets with blood he ‘would resign, at the same time telling them that yy would «ieeply regret their action, as, along with the command, he surrendered up (he last possession of Spain in America, and that they were the first ‘who refused to recognize the government of the metropolis; that they had practically declared themselves independent and had broken the ties of union with the mother country. On delivering up the command to the Segunda Cubo he did 60 under protest, - stating that his action resulted from force, that the authority which existed was illegitl- mate and the offsp! ofa riot. The coach of Lad, Dulce, who left the palace at daybreak, was detaine and she was made to alight and be examined, but, aiter many insults, was allowed to oS . At the time of the above incidents the Cadiz mall steamer Guipuzcoa appeared with the Vasque Volun- teers on board. She was ordered to keep ontside for a time to prevent further disturbances, but she aiterwards entered and the new comers were re- ceived and entertained with great enthusiasm. The cable telegraph waa suspended for a time to prevent the news reaching Spain. ‘The more sensible of the volunteers confess that bE) made & great blunder, but they express willingness to suifer the consequences, ‘The Governor of Matanzas, his Secre' and the Chef of Police have also been removed by the vol- unteers there, The matter was inaugurated and carried mop by the Committee of Mutual Safety, be took the matter in hand. The Governor of lenas has since been removed, as also he of Colon.

Domingo... ‘The Havana Revolution Consummated—Its Origin and Probable Resulta—A Triumvirate Proposed with Separate Government trom Spain—Rosignations of High Ofiiciala—The Attitude of the Navy=Press Commonts, HAVANA, June 5, 1869, A euccessful revolution has been accomplished here, bioodiess, as yor, but likely to be of the gravest fmportance, changing the position of the parties engaged in the suicidal struggle going on in this island, and the relations which other Powers, and Particularly the United States, hold towards it, Im considering it, it should be borne in mind that it was the work of the Spanish element tn this city, claiming allegiance to Spain (at least to outward soeming), and representing the great commercial and property interest, and ren- dered effective for aggressive movement from being embodied in armed organizations called “the Yol- unteers.” The act resulted trom entire unanimity among all of that class, the good and the bad, in- @luding those who, from interest and principle, are lovers of order, and it was passively acquicsced in, if ng supported by the few regular troops in the city. ‘While vorious theories (some of them wild and fook NEW YORK HERALD, THURSDAY, JUNE 10, 1869.—TRIPLE SHEET. far dénongh) as {0 fe ifééption are rife, the fact patent that it followed upon the genera) jon growing out of the prac- tical failure of all military operations against the insurgents. For reasons which the readers of the HERALD appreciate, for want of men, supplies, and, above all, of money, Dulce has been able to ac- complish nothing of late towards re-establishing the authority of the government ip the island. Posatbly @ younger apd more energetic man, under the same circumstances, would have accomplisned more; but it may well be doubted if any man, with so many disadvantages, could have made any material change. The Spaniards, however, constantly in- formed of government successes and assured that the insurrection was already conquered, naturally enough could not understand the fact that the insurgents wero constantly imcreasing im numbers and efficiency, Originally with no great love for Dulce, who nad @ Cuban and was accused of Cu- ban sympathies, it gratified both their prejudices and pride % attribute the thing to the weakness of his admin! Of late, as pefore intimated in these despatches, a feeling of distrust has become very prevalent, and this has been materially added to by the late successful landings, it being fully real- ized that if no headway could be made against the with their machetes none was likely against ericans with Remington rifles. While the deposition of Duice, in view of these circumstances, had been no doubt seriously dis- cussed, though with great secrecy, by the Spaniards, it would not seem that any dispassionate determina- tion had been arrived at But advantage was taken of the excitement ansing from the avrival of Pelaez to carry out what all desired though none had been bold enough to take the initlative, and he was compelled to tender his resignation and turo over the command to the second in command, Gen- eral Espifiar, This document, which appeared in the oficial Gazette of the 24, is as follows:— SUPERIOR POLITICAL GOVERNMENT OF TOE PROVINCE OF CUBA. laving rovince t Having r by command of this 9 the Gefinds of t ¢ Sane, Don Feilpe Ginoves spinar, me re ie takes charge of the Capl- tania Gen e Superior Political goveru- Ment tne DOMINGO DULCE, Havana, June 2, 1869, When signing this ne stated that he dia so by force, and that with the act ended Spanish domination in hé details of the movement have for the most Part already appeared in the HERALD. It is.stated, on good authority, that Dulce ordered the guardia civil, stationed about the palace, to fire into the mob of riotous volunteers Who were crying out for his “abdication and ae blood. They, however, refused to do so, stating that they would protect the Captain General’s life and person, but ee not fire mto thelr companions and brothers. The night—that ot Tuesday, t ye a siecpless one in the long time residence of vice royalty. The noise m the Plaza de Armas was continuous and oft the ominous cry of “Death to Dulce!” pealed forth on the air to the ears of the terror-stricken familv and atcendants within, During the discussion and nego- tations which followed upon the demand of the commission from the volunteers the Spanish Ces ral informed Duice that he would stand by him in preservation of his authority with all his force, “How mahy men have you?” inquired the Captain General. “Two thousand,” sald the other. “Can you depend upon them ¢” “As to that I cannot say.” It was weil understood that the mares and anil had fraternized with the volunteers, and that in any pial ied which might arise they could not be depended upon against them. Convinced of nig utter Beers and satisfied that he would be removed by force if necessary, he ‘eceded to relinquishing the command.

True, the captain General, Tmner the law, If pei) hye Reais up his tein iad — v ap successor, turn it over to the Segunda Cabo, and this has ostensibly been done. Still the fact remains the same that there is no authority here save what lies in an armed mob, actuated Sy controiled by caprice, as mobs always are, and the grave question 81 itself to Amer cans whether the relations which exist between the United States and Spain compel the former to AS this mob as the imate representative ota friendly Power and entitled to all the advan- tages of beiligerency, of uninterrupted trade and commerce, W! they are at the same time denied to @ people Struggling upan their rative goil for that self-government wuaich it is admitted should be at the base of all political fabrics.

That with this latter end in view they are tending; = unwittingly, toward some arrangement with the insurgents inde- pendent Ci or, fauling that, toward annexation to the United States. In opposition to this, which, it must be con: has some show of reason, stands the Spaniard’s love of country, his bitter, unreason- able prejudices mm her favor, which preciudes any correct JuGgment in matters aifocting her, his in- tense of Cubans, more than reciprocated, and his jealousy and wl-feeling toward the United States, During yesterday romors of a triumvirate, of a directory, @ convention or what not, filled the air. Indeed, the authority that something of the kind 18 in contemplation is not altogether contemptibie, it being no less than an official of the government. ‘The names of those to compose the convention are given, viz.:—Don Gonzalo Custatron, formeriy cen- sor of the Havana press, now proprietor of La Voz de Cuba; Don Francisco Duran y Cuervo, a Spanish lawyer, a contributor to La Voz, formerly one of the judges of the High Conrt of Justice and rector of the University, Don Julian Zualusta, formerly a slave trader, now a planter and colonel of the Second battalion of volunteers.

Atthe same time the chief of police gave In his resiguation, aa did the government secretary. In the Viclnity of te public prison two shots were apparently aimed at the sentinel, without hurting hun.

DOMINGO DE LEON, ANTIAGO DX CUBA, The Landing at Mayari—Safe in the Iaterior— Bombastic Spanish Accounts. SANTIAGO DE CuDA, May 27, 1869. Mayari, in connection with the recent landing of filibusters in that vicinity, still takes up public atten- tion, On Sunday, the 23d, the steamer Pelayo re- ceived on board large quantities of military stores for that place, and yesterday the Guantanamo arrived from there bringing five or six boxes of ammuni- tion and four sick soldiers, The expeditionists had left the estate Ramon, on the peninsula, between the Bay of Nipe and Banes, where they were en- encamped, and gone safely inland with the mass of their stores and munitions, though compelled to abandon a considerable quantity of both, probably from want of transportation. The finding of these abandoned materials was quite suMcient to start the usual spanish canards and the loyal public of this city in the evening were startled and delighted at the issue of a flaming Hetio, which aunounced that the brave Colonel a leo ha oo = enemy’s ape! set at " @ bavone' pturing it, together foud otha Waa tates cuanto Storen ammunition, with but aight loss to himself, It was further stated that upon turning a hill he was much surpt to find some 400 corpses, Pee an he or @ result of the = and former action.

The trath is t the insurgents and their foreign friends left their camp for much the same reason that that the New York burglar left te house he had robbed—viz., because he couldn't carry it with him—and when Colonel Hidalgo’s column entered, at the point of the bayonet, it found no one to oppose.

On the departure of the convoy from Puerto Padre for Tuias a ight took piace between thd Fifth kat | tatton of mobilized volunteers and a body of rebels, numbering more than 8.009 men, It was @ very ow stinate action and lasted seven hours; but the con-/ voy managed to proceed, although it consisted of thirty ox cacts with provisions, Our loss amounted toseventy, but the enemy suffered by far more, not- withstanding their being armed with Remington and Peabody rifies. The moment the news arrived here @ column, under Colonel Ferrer, was sent there, composed of the Reina and Union battalions, numbering more than 2,000 men. These arrived at Puerto Padre on the 25th, and were going by forced marches to Tuflas, ‘The railroad to Puerto Principe is protected by the troops, from point to point, which service was done until recently by the column of artillery and the bat- talion of colored mobilized volunteers of light in- fantry—the first to a locality somewhat beyond Las Minas, and the second trom that place to Puerto Principe, It is said that, although the colored vol- unieers have never been in action before, they fought with oe coolness in a recent action. and although the my was far superior in numbers they lost some seven Killed, while the blacks had only one wounded severely, The artillery column left subse- quently for Gibara, being rellevéd- on the line by the Catalan mobilized volunteers. The war steamer Vasco Nuiiez and armed steamer Marsella having gone to Nipe with some troops, there were uo rebels there on val.

Governor Lesca’s proposal to the municipality to employ the negroes of the netgnboring estates on a space of ground sufficient to raise all the vegetables and ground provisions that may be required to sup- ply the market has been much lauded.

The enthusiasm and joy ciat prevailed defles de- scription. Soon after the arrival of the train Brigadier Fer- 4 rer, with the cavairy, and Colonei Goyeneche, with the Secoud baitaiion of the Reina, arrived. The three companies which took the stronghold of Oeata belong to this corps. ‘Two hundred negroes have presented themselves to General Leiona at Minas. The heat has been excessive, sometimes the ther- mometer standing at ninety degrees Fahreabeit and more. During the tive or six months of non-communica- tton and siege suffered by this city the following rices huve ruled:—A barrel of flour, $100 to $120. 100 weight of rice, $32; 100 cars of corn, $30; 103 welght of yams, $12, and other articies of prime ne- ceasity Ip proportion.

Third Dny’s Proceedings—The Expelled Dele- gates Readmitted by Courtesy—Petition of the Women’s Union—Appointment of Come mittece—Banquet at Stanwix Hall. ALpany, N, Y., June 9, 1969. The National Typographical Union reassembled this morning, in their third day’s session, at the Capitol, the newly elected President, Isaac D. George, of Nashville, in the chair. After the calling of the ro} the minutes of the pro- ceedings of the preceding day and evening's session were read and approved. Mr. BARFIELD, of Louisville, moved that inasmuch as telegraphic information had been received from Montgomery, Ala., certifying to the endorsement of the appointment of Mr. Cornelius Halloran as a dele- gate to this Convention from the Montgomery Union, and his credentials having been rejected yesterday, that so much of the resolution of rejection as re- ferred to him be stricken out and rescinded, and that Mr. Halloran be admitted to a seat as a delegate. Mr, Beasuey, of Cincinnatl, offered an amend- ment that ali the delegates excluded under the reso- lution of yesterday be readmitted. The whole subject was laid on the table by a vote of 45 to 33, Mr. McKrcunte, of New York, protested against the action of the Convention as unconstitutional and unjust. Mr. Halloran, having produced evidence of his election, was properly entitled to admission, Mr. Dovaury, of Indlanapoils, moved to recon- sider.the vote. Mr. Brirron, of South Carolina, rose to 4 question of privilege, and stated that he desired to enter his protest against this proceeding. He had voted ail through against ‘proxy delegation, but when a case such as this, as clear as daylight, was presented, he felt that the Convention should be bound to follow it. Mr. Halloran was as clearly entitled to hfs seat in this body as any member now present. The motion to reconsider was carried by a vote of 41 to 82. Mr. Brrrron moved that the gentleman from Montgomery be admitted to his seat, and called for the previous question, Mr. MCKECHNIE rose and said that 4 number of these credentials bad beén received and referred to the appropriate commitiee. Among other creden- tials presented were the Elmira credentials, which were rejected because the word “E£linira’ was omitted, although the number of the Union was given. “They were all revered to a special commit. tee, who examined and reported 1n favor of the dele- gates presenting them, but a member of this body moved for the exclusion of eight wembers, which was carried.

He desired to see them ail telezraph to their Unions end show whether they Were properiy here. He was opposed to this proxy representation as a aystom, but 10 View of the fact that it bad been so largely followed and recognized at other previous sessions he thought it should be allowed to pas’ at this session, and that the constitution should be so amended a3 to prevent or regmate it ia the Intute. ‘There were imbdértant measures coming before thus body, which was tié sole reason why the admission of (hose delegates was so severely op- posed: but if these Unions were rejected upon these — which they desired to be heard upon, it fWonld prove a matter of serious injury to this Nationa: umiwn: Mr. ConkKLIN, of New York, opposed the recon- sideration, mr.
