The New Rebellion. • According to new Cuban advices Havana, the idissatisfaetion of the Spanish volunteers, which :has just resnited in;. out break, arose from a belief that Goner#lPelaez acid other chic& were making money out, of the war, instead of.fighting the itebels. ,Pelaez was accused more than a month ago Of assisting Cpbans to escape, lot a bribe; and in more recent case of escape or prieve . the charge has • been reeivett• The charge against Pelaez iii its more re cent shap • t he and his colleagues have been trying to ei rge and protract the• war in the neighborhood of Cienfuegos and Trini 'dad in order to till their poekets and obtain promotimi This plan they pursued in Santo Domingo. It was.for the purpose of' investi gating the charge that for large sums Pelaez and las - friends had been selling Ba/co-con/Judas, or safe conducts, that General Dulpe de terniined to., visit .Cienfuegos. He Shan Boned his purpoSe on account of failing health and new dangers in Havana. Another circumstance goes to' ex plain the new outbreak. The -Captain-Gen eral having saved from death Isidro Herman dez,of Santa Clara, the volunteers of the place mutinied, demanded the life of the prisoner and insulted the Governor. It was feared that, though some of then' had been put in prison, others would be able to subject the prisoner to barbarities. The same doingM have happened in various parts of the island which is now, no • donbt, completely under control of the Spanish rank and rile. The Captalln-fdeneralshilp—lts Late and New Inammilient. Major-General or • Morimil de Campo, Don Felipe Ginovez Es Pinar, formerly second in command to General Duke, will act as Cap tain-General in his place till Gen. De Rodas arrives. His appointment to command is no good augury for the Spanish came. He Was one of the Spanish leaders in the disastrous St. Domingo war, and conducted the re treat therefrom of the hungry and rag ged SpaniardS who were trapped into 'a vain striiggle by the avarice . of Santa Anna and the amliit ion of-Marshal Ser rano and Marshal O'Donnell. The St. Do . ming() war resembled in many respects the present campaign in C ba, 'and the Spaniards left the Wand after an immense-number of victories. With the retiring Captain-General., who is almost in a dying condition, and. 'anxious to set foot once more in Spain, the Cubans manifest no sympathy.. 'fhey say that as the fraudulent ,Tecker claiins brought about the Freneh intervention in Mexico, so the negroes of the Widow of the Mariplik of Santoreniathat lady being the wife of the late Captain-General—have made Thilce a traitor for the Milliken time to his ,profes.sions. - It is not true that he has eve.rof " feted to the Cubans the ternis of autonomy and liberty which Serrano lately declared he did; on the contrary, he is believed to have made resins less liberal than these a cover fot tent iorizing.

Poll tient Aspect of the Cuban Question— : Anxiety for Recognition b`• the United States.—The Peruvian Monitors Not to be Lsed in the Cuban Interest. The Washington correspondent of the New York Herald says: The State Department has no Official in formation concerning the recognition of the ( •nbaus as belligerents by the Peruvian govern ment. Conceding that it is So, however, the authorities here do not attach much irnport, awe to it beyond the mere fact that it will serve, to a vermin extent, to encourage the Cubans in their resistance to Spain it is_not thought Peru is in a condition to render the Cubans any material assistance, even if she was disposed to do so. It is probable that some of the other South American States may follow the example of Peru. What the Cubans are especially anxious for is the recognition of their rights as bellig7ents by the South Ame rican States horde ig on the Caribbean Sea. This would give t ein naval rendezvous adja cent to their own island, and enable them to issue letters of marque and fit out naval expe ditions. The best informed parties in official elreles do not believe that the Cubans seek annexation with any of the South American republics. If the latter hive them material aid, and the Cubans should Ins successful, they will pr,ll)ably establish an independent go vernment. The Cuban leaders want the protection of a strong government, and are not anxious for annexation, except to the United States. W ith regard to the monitors purchased from us by the Peruvian government, it is not thought they can he made available by Porn to aid the Cnbans. When they wire pur ,dieset I from Our goVi-iiiinent theiPertivi an 7.%Ci ii. islet here was required to give bonds that t hev Amnia not be used against any Power with which w" were at peace, prior to their arrival at Peru. The Spanish Minister was suspicious, owing - to the unfriendly relations between Peru and Spain, t that they were intended to aid the Cubans. He called the attention of SCerciary Fish to the fact that . they were slow in reaching Peru, and, at the same time, expressed his fears that they were to be used against Spain and in the in terest el the Cubans. The Secretary of State pointed to the fact that Peru had given bonds that, they would not, be so used, and expressed the opinion that the fears of the Spanish Min ister were unfeunded. Subsequently:Mr. Fish called the attention of the Peruvian Minister, Mr. (;arcia, to the slow prOgress made by the monitors in reaching Peru. Mr. Garcia ex 'planked that it would be necessary for the monitors to pass through the Straits of Magellan in winter, be cause at other seasons of the year the weatheV is extremely: Unfavorable, and there would be danger of the monitors being lost. Out this account they would temain daring the summer in the vicinity of the WeSt Indies. Aflast - accounts they were at St. Thomas, but intended proceeding to harbadoes. This was Cifinninnieated to the Spanish Minister, and to a certain extentseemed to (uiet his suspicions. He is still suspicious, however;' that they will turn up, well armed and equipped, in Cuban waters, and the late ,action of the Peruvian geyerninenthas_rather'confirmed:lllbl in iris in Italy. , The Florence cofrespondent of the Times writes; ongfellow has been passing a short ante here after his long visit to Rollie.

[From the cinema:ln Coinnierehitl • W.AsuirroTox, May 30.-Mr. Motley:had full and coniplete instruction:4 when he-sailed front New York on the 19th instant. • These instruc tions were not of a general character, but were minute 'and nniibridge,d„ They referred nut only to naturalization and .einigra tion, and all the matteis in. interest ht present between the two countries, but they were particular and specific-on the sub-. jeer of the Alabama depredations. instead of these instructions being, prepared tinder the dikeetion Of the President, the very revdrse tine. SeerOary I was asked by the Presi - dent to.' prepare menthrandit 'of his (Fish's) • ideas respecting the .Alabama subject, or to submit a rough draft of instructions to him; Which he wind(' lay before 'the Cabinet. This 'Mr. Fish did. He preparea at great, length, in , ins own hand, the instructions to Mr. Motley,,which occupied his time more than a fortnight. When he had finished 'his work, he notified Gen. Giant, who at once drove to the State Department in company' with .his Attorney- General, and Mr. Fish read the instructions aloud to the two gentlemen. They not only approved of all the positions assumed,heartily and enwhatieally,,, but they concurred en tirely in every expression and the language .'employed.' Nat . a line nor a word', was changed. In that form the: in structiem4, on the following Friday, were sub mitted to the entire. Cabinet atits. regular ses sion, and were subjected ,to the most careful Scrutiny. Mr. Fish was called upon to explain certain Matters, but so ably did he'defentilds course, and so unobjectionable were the in-: structions, that not a principle nor a word was amended, and. before Mr. Motley sailed these instructions were placed in-his hands Just as Mr. Fish prepared them. As to their contents, I can only say that they are not based upon the speech or the :opinions .of Senator Sunnier. The English Government will be made to understand that this Government is not responsible for the Speeeliewof Senator Sumner, or Anybody else; but this is not saying that the Administration Would disregard the. voice of the people as Made known by a number of their direct Rep resentatives; but the State Department is well informed of all thC phases of the Wabannt matter front the beginning, just what points to press 7 and what to - avoid, - what ground has a leeady been developed and what untouched, and all the intricacies of this most intricate subject, while Congress and the peo- Ple are ignorant of it all. The negotiations to - be effective must bc secret, and time has de veloped that nothing is secret in Congress. So the administration is better prepared to judge of the matter than the public at larg,e. The In structions to Mr. Motley are not at all of a belligerent character. Our new Minister will explain •to the English Government the relations of the Senate and Executive in the. matter of making and ratitving. treaties, and -will endeavor to show that the Senate and . Excentive are Min]] aceord, and he himself is given to understand that no such treaty as that negotiated by Iteverdy 'Johnson and. Earl Clarendon will be acceptable to either branch of the treaty-making power. The instructions will do much toward allaying the excitement and passion-in both cottinries.---engendered, on the one hand, by the speech of Mr. Sunnier, and, on the other, by: the violent and unfair tone of the. English press. While Mr. M.:Aley'S eourse will have a sooth , 'inn? filt,. . , lessen the self-respect of even such partisans as Senator Chandler or Mr. Sumner.. The Gov 'eminent will maintain its own dignity and en force respect from others. A firm, respectful, dignified attitude Will be taken and adhered to; but no efibrt will be made, to bully or in •timidate the English Government into terms. If any result is.reached it will, be favorable to the United StateS. Of that the public may rest assured. Wheri the subject wilt brought to the attention of the English Government is uiiie~riiun:lt will: . net be precipitated, but if a Sorable opportunity pre "sews itself, it will be taken advantage of, and negotiations will at no time be resisted by him Of course, the time necessary for such a work . is considerable. We receive our news by Ca ble, but the Government cannot accept in formation which readies here in an unofficia form. It Must wait for mails, sometimes long delayed, and frequently so incomplete is the information which is received officially that inquiries are necessary to be returned tithe after time. The Governuient thus gets the name of procrastinating the public business, when, in truth, it is being expedited as rapidly as the mails and the dignity of English diplo macy render possible. H. J. It. The Question, of the Regeney...lts Ap proaching Solution. AID.RID, Monday, May 17, 1869.—The puts lion of the Regency may he regarded as very nearly settled. Serrano s scruples have been overcome, and lie consents to accept the posi tion pr \i Si onallythat is to say,until after the Constitution is voted. There, are some (miens rumors afloat regarding the terms on which this compromise has been effected between the Ministers and Progressists. It is said that the former have only assented to it on the express stipulation that, if the Progressists do not succeed in finding a king who will he ac ceptable to the different parties, they are to vote in favor of the Due de Montpensier. I ant inclined to doubt the correctness of this latter statement_ ; but, if true, the pledge is of little value inpresence of the notorious bad faith of Prilu. Once he is matht 'President of the Council of Ministers, and is; unop posed directly by Serrano, his personal mins will begin to develop themselves. The etreet of the Regency will he simply to give hint greater freedom of...action, Mr the Due de la Torre will then be merely a puppet in his hands. Of course the Republicans are secretly pleased at this arrangement. NOW that they an, beaten On the monarchy clause by the vetes taken in anthipation on their amend ments, the only chance left them is their undersbuiding with Prim, fur that such a compact exists : there, can be no rea sonable doubt. The Regency will bridge over the interval which must elapse before , Prim caii complete his arrangements, and by "the flint: the constitution is voted the. impossi bility Of uniting the various parties .on the choice of a menareh will be so plainly demon-: strated, that a coup d'etat iufavor of the Re public will become a matter of easy accom plishment. it is wonderful with what facility this ambitious but enigmatical soldier gets the it ademofThe different-partiesi;to- fall'lnto his plans. Both thrienists and Republicans think they are Making, no of him; While in reality it is he who is the wires of the varioiht , political combinations. Centering, as he will shortly do under this Regency arrangement, the principal civil and military powers of the Government in his hands, there is nothing at which he may not hope to arrive. The be with him only a means to an end: He does hot believe in it any more now than he,did several months ago, when fie addressed his famous letter to the Gaii/eis; but he sees thatit can Ile made it , sate stepping•-stone 'to the greatt- obj&t of bisitinbitione With 'the exatupe of Louis Napoleon before .hini, find it Conjunction of eireuhistanceS infinitely mete favorable there is no reitsciii Poe saying that this o 'toad leis teach,, or that PtOjectifarti --Faiglttod's sailorPrittee has composed a tiralti.audlias tlie. ambitionto leti‘t ttu aret►ostra;.

It was stated- that: Mr: Pike had received tints -far- only, the, first payment of $150,000 cash, and that frequent failures on the part of Mr. Fisk to make further paymenni bad compelled him most relbetudly, to de wand the return of his preperty. We are giftd to say that the reports are unfounded: .Mr. Pike states tliat ..he has received- s3l Q,OOO on the first payment, and is not anxious , to get the house in his hands again; hisgreat mistake was in ever building it. The facts in the ease of the suddetill (dosing of the 'Opera Bouse, donbtlki much to the dis gust of the author and tranSlator of "Pattie,' and the star of the future, Mr. Fecliter, are its follOws: Mr.. Fisk's theatrical ventures have not been Suecessful; on the contrary, to use his own language, his, losses have been so heavy in his theatrical adventures elsewhere that, in spite of the. fact that the Opera Howie is - filled every night, he is compelled to close it; and Saturday night will witness the last per formance herein.

A grand rash was made for the doors. Rich trains were trampled on and torn, elegant toilettes were sadly mussed up in the litdlee. jewelry .was torn off and lost in the jam, ladies were separated from their escorts, and gay cavaliers sought vainly for their fair dharges.

Some got loatU; - but were no better. off than those who got none, as neither could get out of the crowd. Finally, a detachment of police came to the rescue, and lent their aid to bring order out of the confusion that prevailed. Then it turned out that the Smith family had gone off in Brown's coach, and Sinith's driver, still waiting for his proper load, refused to take any other.
