Our correspondence from Paris during the three months of slaughter and agony will 8 valuable source for reference to the future torian of the Commune. The letters we hed last week give a vivid account of e affairs of the Commune on the eve of its e. They contain personal sketches of most prominent leaders, such as Bergeret, mbrowski and Delescluze. Our corres- lent was accorded the special favor of an terview with every one of the now defunct #hiefs of Paris, and now that the Commune, @ bloody and courageous resistance, has ven up the ghost, the letters acquire onal interest. These interviews were in e nick of time, giving, as it were, the world chance to hear what tho Communist com- rs had to say for themselves before their final exit from the historic scene. lowever great may have been their misdeeds, says our correspondent, there were ex- wating traite in their character and in the they defended, and now, that they have E the death they did not dread at the hands f the justly infurlated Versaillists, it be- jooves the historian to pass an unbiassed ind dispassionate judgment upon the last lead- rs of the Commune, In this he will derive ouch that will enlighten him in our Paris cor- jpondence, What more graphic and instructive, for in- jatance, than our correspondent’s conversation th Dombrowski and Delescluze, the two fore- ost men of the Commune! The mere mention the journal he represented seemed to have a tent charm ; for these leaders did not hesitate jto stop in the fever heat and hurry of their ex- citing work in order to give the desired ex- ‘planations—nay were anxious to obtain a favor- ‘able, or, as they expressed themselves, an im- sartial hearing through the New York Herat. ‘His description of the headquarters of the ‘chief commander—of the hurry, bustle and jother characteristic traits of the Communist ‘machinery—presents the whole scene most ivividly to the reader. Here is Dombrowski jhimeelf, telling his personal history, explain- jing many things which were not until then known, or known only toa few. The seem- fori trifling particulars—we say seemingly, for in reality they help to complete the picture pnd confirm its general veracity—bring to the urface the real motives and characters of ese men of the hour, How interesting, for ‘instance, is the account of the round our cor- wespondent, at the risk of his life, made in the ffeld of hostilities with General Dombrowski! Not less important is his visit to Deles- cluge, who, during a conversation, cleared Mp the doubt as to whether the fall of Fort [Issy—a most decisive acquisition to the Ver- jsaillists—was caused by treachery or its un- jtenability. Here the old martyr of Socialism lls the story of his many crosses under the empire, In the interview with Bergeret we see tthe fanaticiam of the Socialist at its worst, with ‘many suggestive and descriptive particulars fhat add to our knowledge of the causes that wendered possible the advent of the Com- jane, , Our Paris letter to-day contains so much Walaable information—is so full, vivid and hing in its description of the general tate of Paris on the eve of the crowning orror—that our readers will peruse it with t interest, Sadly suggestive of moral rot- nneas fs the part which women have played ughout the revolt, and the gay scenes then acted in the fashionable haunts of folly form_ ghastly contrast to the general desola- fion.

Police on the City Care—Recommendation of Slayor Hall. Mayor Hall has made a good point in recom- mending that the city police and detectives be permitted to ride free on the city cars, If the car companies are wise they will act favor- ably upon it an once. It will be the means of insuring the safety of all who travel by our city railroads. Ladies will then be able to use the cara without fear of being insulted. Ruf- fians will cease to give annoyance therelv, and pickpockets will shun them as places wherein the trade will be dangerous to their personal liberty, ‘The right kind of conductors and drivers will flud the police a great assistance to them in carrying on their duty in a proper manner, while those who are but litile better than the roughs and thieves will discover that in future they will be compelled to be- have themselves properly, The conviction of Foster was a great point gained in rendering the street cars safer places than they have been for a long time past; but Mayor Hall’a plan will do even more—it will clinch the matter at once, and end all the outrageous occurrences that of late we have been called upon to chronicle, The car companies owe it to themselves and the public to immediately adopt a suggestion that is sure to produce such excellent results. They will be saveda world of troable and annoyance by so doing, and in the end they will save money by it. Any number of excel- lent reasons can be offered why they should jump at the opportunity ; but we imagine that they will be wise enough to carry out Mayor Hall’s recommendation without urging the matter further upon their notice or suggest- ing again their favorable consideration of so good a plan. We hope it will not be long before the presesee of our police will give ample security to all those who are compelled to use the street cars as a means of transit, Toe Crowpep Strate of the Fulton ferry- boats last evening when Brother Beecher’s church services were over was something marvellous to the great numbers of country cousins who evidently were among the crowd. One black mass on the ferry bridge in Brooklyn met another black mass coming off the boat and another black mass met these again on the bridge in New York. The cause for such an outpouring of people at that time of night could only have been the return of the Brooklyn seekers after Sunday coolness and lager and the New York visitors to Brother Beecher. The only comment to be made upon it is that Fulton ferry must hasten with its new building and gates must be pro- vided for the bridges. PERSONAL NOTES.

You have received such constant accounts of our doings here from your regular correspondents that something from an outsider may prove interesting.

Being evidently written by an Englishman of ubiquitous prociiyities, I have deciphered and forwarded them in their unadulter- ated purity. The handwriting was a maze of at first impenetrable dificulty, the orthography in many places faulty.

The insurrection has been suppressed. The insurgent losses were enormous, and those of the government comparatively small. WASHBURNE. BELEASE OF THE CORE OF THE MADELEINE. An occasional correspondent writes:— M. Duguerry, Cure of the Madeleine, has escaped from prison in ratner a singular manner. The sum of 150f. induced the jailer to let him out of his place of confinement. On getting outside he was met by a Turkish gentleman—a M. Brotfel—who had procured @ passport from the Turkish Embassy in blank, which he filled up in his own name and handed it to M. Duguerry, who at once left Paris by the Northern Railway. This happened on the 28th ult. Sach, at least, is the story told me by M, Brotfel’s wife, who helped to plan the escape, and has given me her word that I may vouch to you for its anthenticity, and I cam have no reason to doubt her good faith, I may add that it is a matter of common notoriety that the delegu of the Commune at the Northern Railway station makes a regular trafic of passe, with a guaranteed scale of remu- neration, according to the apparent means of pay- ment of the various applicants. One was offered me the other day for fifteem francs, but I did not happen to require this open-sesame, being already provided with one legally obtained from the Citoyen Cournet. - ENGLAND.

TRIALS OF COMMUNIST LEADERS, The trials of those Communist leadera who were taken alive will commence during the present week. Their conviction is, of course, inevitable, and it is generally believed that every one will suffer death. THE LAST OONELIOT, After a desperate and bloody conflict the government forces succeeded in capturing the insurgent positions at Belleville and Pire la Chaise late last night, The firing then ceased, and this morning, on the troops advancing on the one position yet held by the forces of the Commune, the insurgents hoisted a white flag and surrendered in abody. They were immediately disarmed and the great re- bellion of Paris in 1871 bad ended. A TRIUMPHAL RETURN, The Thirty-eighth regiment of the line, be- longing to MacMahon’s army, has just returned to Versailles in triumph, the men having flowers and branches in the muzzles of their rifles, and bearing also a magnificent banner of red silk captured from the Communists, VINOY GOVERNOR OF PARIS. General Vinoy has been appointed Governor of Paris by M. Thiers. MILITARY ARRANGEMENT. It is proposed, as a temporary measure, to divide the capital into twenty military dis- tricts, each to be strongly garrisoned. This arrangement will be maintained until order has been completely restored and the passions aroused by the insurrection have disappeared, LOSSES OF THE VERSAILLISTS. Owing to the admirable plan adopted by Marshal MacMahon for storming the barricades held by the insurgents the Versailles troops did not suffer heavily during the seven days of fight- ing in the streets of Paris. The loss of the army altogother was only 2,895, while, according to the most reliable estimates, the losses of the insurgents were over fifteen times as great, NUNS MURDERED, It is stated upon good authority that among the unfortunate persons held as hostages in the prison of La Roquet, who were murdered, were ten nuns. MUTINY OF PRISONERS, Yesterday the insurgent prisoners at Sar- tory made a desperate effort to escape, They set fire to the straw which was given them to sleep upon, and in the confusion which fol- lowed the breaking out of the flames sixty- five effected their escape. Of this number twenty-four have been recaptured, EXTRADITION.

The Disagreement Between the Sultan and the Khedive—Perplexity of the Latier=The Yowou Lusurrection Dimeuity, CONSTANTINOPLE, April 28, 1871. By telegraph we learn that Nevrez Pacha haa at rived at Cairo, and we now look hourty for some tidings of the result of his journey. The peculiarity’ of his mission is that Abdui Aziz ts the sole author of it; the message which the Chamberlain bears ts from the Sultan personally, and not from the government; the Porte has not been iu any way accessory tw it, and itis atated that the Grand Vizier even hat no previous inkling of his Majesty's tntentions. Thore can by no doubt that the presence in the Hedjaz of & Turkish force of fifteen thousand troops, supported by @ naval squadron in tho Red Sea—s force whick, a8 you will remember, was sent there in Decemuce and January last to quell the Arab revolt in Yemen-« has been @ source of much disquiet and PERPLEXITY TO THR KHEDIVS, and tosuch an extent as to lead him inte the com- mission of grave indiscretions with respect to ate own armaments and defeasive works om the Sues Canal. This fact tends to confirm the impression which was current here at the time the revolt broke Out, to the effect that there was some complicity be tween the Kuedive and the rebels. It wil be re membered thas when the Insurrecuonary movemens declared Itself the Khedive proffered his assistance, offering to reduce the rebel Assyra to submission without the aid of any tmperial troopa, for obvious Teasons this offer was decline’, The guardianship of the holy places of the Hedjaz ts the very heart an@ core of the Sultan’s spiritual influence; to have dele- gated, therefore, their defence to any vassal would have been highly impolitic, and to commit #0 sacred acharge to one whose ruling passion is ambition would haye been foily. History, as we know, re peats Itself; and we also know that once upon @ time the Fatimite Calipus of Egypt were the gar dians of the holy shrines; anil, further, we have not been led to infer from lamail’s policy that there would be any reiuctance on his part—le cas échéant—— to assume the protectorate which would revive thah past age of Moslem history, THR YEMEN INSURRECTION. When the Khedive percelved that the Porte wae determined to deal alene with the Yemen ingurrea- tion he deprecated and remonstrated against the idea of sending a powerlul force against it, and Pointed out that a couple of regiments would have been ample for the object in view. The Porte, how- ever, sent elght battalions of infantry, with a due Proportion of cavalry and artillery—a force which has had the best possible effect in impressing the Arabs with the power of the Sultan, and in re-estav- lishing @ prestige, which, for lack of propor tend: ing, bad sadly drooped of late years.
