We publish below brief sketches of the leaders of the Paris insurgents whose names have been made * public. As will be seen ali belong to the old red re- publican party. General Duval. This oficer, who appears to hold the position of commander-in-chief of the insurgent forces, is a sol- ater by profession. He enterea the French army in the second quarter of the present century, and was one of the first to agree to tue overthrow of Charles X. Soon after the accession of Louls Philippe he gave evidence of holding republican sentiments, and mmediately after the overthrow of the “Citizen King” gave in his adhesion to the republic. He opposed the Presidency of Louis Napoleon, but re- tained his position in the army until after the coup Wétat, when he sert in hts resignation, From that time until the overthrow of the empire in Septem- ber last he remained tn private life, taking no part in politics, but recognized as an unswerving repub- lican. Alter the 5d of September he again took up arms, was commissioned a general and served during the siege of Paris. He seems to have been one of the leaders of the Montmartre imsurgents from the start, and iis recent proclamation, a Aynopsis of which we publis! yesterday, indicates that he is a communist. General Cremer. It 18 @ alMoult matter to state what are the politics of General Cremer. As will be se2n in our cable despatches he has been summoned to appear at Versailles for trialby court martial, for partict- pation in the insurrection. He 19 one of the mill- tary leaders of the insurrection. At the ontoreak of the war with Prussia he was a vapitaine de dlat+ major (statl officer) of the imperial army. After Gambetta went to Tours Cremer anda captain of engineers, named Bretolles, iad an interview with him, which resulted tn Rretolles’ appoint- ment to a major generalship ant to Cremer’s receiving a brigadier general's commission. It ap- pears that this sudden promotion resulted from the two young officers laying before Gambetta a plan of campaign which that fery oMcial at once adopted, and recognized in the planners oMicers of the first military genius. Cremer was placed in command of a brigade of some 7,000 nen, forming part of Bre- tolles’ division, The troops Iny near Dijon, aud one fine day Cremer, in disobedience of the orders of ns superior, marched them to Dyon, Bretolles hurried to Tours to complain to Gambeita, but before Le could reach that place Cremer had telegraphed a report of a victory he had gained over the Prus- gians, It was a trifling afat, but victories were scarce, and Gambetia at once promoted him to a major generalsitp m the army of Bourbaki. Cremer’s division did good service during the fatal campaign to relieve Belfort, and fought hard daring the retreat which it covered, After the prelammary treaty of peace Cremer went to Paris, and has since been there, He is said to be both ambitious and unscrupulous, and is altogether @ duugerous man. M. Assy. Almost every reader of the Hrranp has heard of M. Asay, one of the leaders of the Workingmen's International Socicty. He ts # native of southeast France, and was at one time an employe at the great tron works of Creuzot, belonging to M. Schneider, lave Prealdent of tho Corps Légisiatit under the empire.

NaW JERSSY LEGISLATURE. Members Eager tor Adjournmeut—Hoboken Cheated Oat of its Charter~ Another Grav Game. There was a rush of bills through both houses yes terday, and the members seemed eager to draw the session to aciose. All the big plums in the suape of ratiroad bills have been disposed of, except the Erie bill, which was postponed till Tuesday next. In the Senate the bill to increase justices’ and constables’ fees was amended aud made the special order for Monday night, The act to facorporate the South Orange Horse Railroad was passed, as was the supplement to the Newark and Paterson Railroad, Mr. N. D. Taylor introuuced a supplement to the charter of the city of Hoboken. Ju the House a resointion was offered that each member-receive $209 worth of stationery, but after @ lively debate this latest grab game proved a failure. There was honesty and independence enongh left inthe Assembly to deieat it. ‘The House then went into a night sesston for the purpose of disposing of unfinished bills. Not a werd was heard about the Hoboken charter in the Tiouse, although the Hoboken Citizens’ Committee watched and wasttea patiently for weeks and received promises in abun- dance. The Committee on Municipal Corpora- tions, through Mr. Hornblower, repeatedly made Se ee unises, not one of which was ever fulfilled, save the formal reporting of the bill ounce. There is scarcely @ possibility that it can pass now during the few days left of the session. The Hobokev Po- lice bill shares the same fate.

Inflammatory Manifesto of the Spaniards Against the Creoles, Dissatisfaction in Havana—The New King Unpopular. Rumored Landing of an Bxpodition Under Quesada. TELEGRAMS TO THE NEW YORK HERALO. Havana, March 23, 1871, The news reseived from Porto Rico by the Spanish mail steamer proves the agitated state of affairs on that island. The radical party, consisting of creoles, and the conserva- tive Spaniards, are yet only waging a war of words, but the latter threaten a recourse to arms, A committee, called ‘Comite Liberal Conservator,” with the Marquis Esperanza ag President, has been formed, and a manifesto issued, which means proscription of the people, They declare the time for speech- making past, and that the time for action has arrived, This committee, they assert, is to be the nucleus of a great conservative party, and it must have for a motto the word “action” if it is to give the home government an idea of what it wants and means, It must not allow illusions in the country where they possess wealth, and, above all, Spanish honor, to lose their statement, They say that causes for alarm are both Ingubrious and ludicrous, Our adversaries, they declare, some moved by flattering theories and others by ambition, have been for some time fencing cunningly against us with arms the government gives to all—viz., the right of assembly and freedom of the press, and these arms have been artfully and successfully used, and unless opposed by others of the same class with better temper, they will surely tri- umph by reason of our inertia, Precious time has been lost, during which our adversa- ries have excited the public credulity so mar- vellously, Though painful to confess it, they have impregnated the political atmospbere with dissolving principles, revolutionary and anti Spanish ideas, which our activity must destroy; Porto Rico wié become another Hayti or St. Domingo, if we have not re- course to the power which is ours, History will point with shame to the fact that, while our brothers in Cuba were fighting armed bands ar@l sacrificing blood and money, we were idle spectators of the beginning of a revolution in our own island. Above all, we should have a newspaper with sufficient means to defend with intelligence and valor the great interests at stake, to .combat idea with idea, meet sophism with truth and treason with foyalty. This inflammatory document is supplemented with like arguments from the Diario dela Marina of this city, which offers them assist- ance in crushing the people, and reminds the wealth of this strength of its army them of island and and navy. The Spaniards here and in Porto Rico are earnestly fanning revolution into a flame. The resignation of Captain General Baldrich was compelled, for proving friendly to the iberals, The determination to crush the creoles is very strong, and before long you may hear of bloodshed ; and all this because the Spanish party failed in the elections, The appointment by the Spanish govern- ment of General Cabolino as Segundo Cabo, in place of General Carbo, has resulted ina peculiar outburst from the Casino Espafiol de la Habana, that political body again aspiring to role the island, Ata meeting held last night it was resolved to repudiate the appointment. As General Carbo is their tool the opposition took the apparently harmless shape of desire to have things remain as they are, Valma- seda gave consent to sending telegrams to the home government expressing this desire, and the reply has not yet been received, but if un- salisfactery it will be the signal for quietly ignoring the authority of King Amadeus , per- haps, after the fashion of Captain General Dulce’s expulsion. There is much secret discontent with the new King, and the events of the past few days show that Spain is in greater danger than ever of losing her remaining American colonies, There is a rumor in Cuban circles that Gen- eral Quesada has landed an expeditiou suc- cessfully in the vicinity of Trinidad. the Surrender of Another Insurgent General— Opinions of tho Havana Press on the Vro- posed Sale of Cuba. Havana, March 23, 1871, The insurgent General Machado, with over sixty armed men surrendered to the Spaniards, Antonio Vellegas, who surrendered last week, acted as go between, This leaves two small bands of insurgents in the Cienfuegos district. Long articles are published in the journals here protesting against the reported nogotia- tions for the sale of Cuba and Porto Rico to the United States. The Diario says Cuba never will be sold, | because the Spaniards hore wilt not consent, 1 there is not enough money in tho world to pur: hase her. The pe de Cuba protests in a similar strain against the ga,'? of the island. HAYTI AND ST. DOMINGO.
