Las Tunas is the second city of the • interior of this island. It is walled after the manner of all Spanish-American cities. an d its popular tion numbers 15,000 souls. "Although it is situated on a tract of level ground, there are cerros, or low hills, which surround it, in closing the town in a sort of amphitheatrical inclosnre. Against an army possessing any adequate amount of artillery, Las Tunas would be decided indefeasible. • 'THE BEGINNING OF THE BATTLE. At 3 A. 31. of the 16th ultimo, Col. Enrique de Bottiche, commanding the garrison of Las Tunas, sent out a picked battalion of mounted, regulars to learn the movements of the revo lutionary. forceswhich he was aware were marching from different points on "the' roads to Las Tunas. , The conamander at the head of these reconnoiters was Col. Jose Vicente Valero. Be had not ventured half a mile be fore he met a considerable bod y of Cubans al ready 1,4 p and on the march:towards Las Tunas.

They wanted to whip the Spaniards, but they much more wanted the coveted stores of materials for clothingwithin the Walls of Las Tunas for their well-nigh naked- wives, mothers, sisters and children.

Col. Valera, second in command, endeavored to break the lines of Quesada's forces on the Santiago de Cuba road, so as to . gain their rear with cavalry and artillery. HO was driven back after aAiliarp and disastrous engagement. Meantime the Cubans pressed forward. Their few pieces of artillery, re ported to be Parrott guns, were %veil served, - and opened the four gates leading to the city. Before reaching the gates, Quesada, had to carry air outside line of - intrenchments, which entirely surrounded the city.

Quesada's artillery first opened from the Mereade%bills upon the Church of Jesus, where a company of Spanish riflemen were stationed upon towers and on the roof.--The two towers Were utterly riddled, the riflemen were dislodged, and nuniediat,ely following Quesada in person led'a, column of his army through the southern gate into the city. This -waa a signal for a hasty retreat of the whole Spanish garrison into the Plaza, or grand square.

During all these hours the:.Spaniards fought like regulara, butwere repulsed at every point from which they undertook to break the lines of.the Cubans., ' WATCHING THE 'iONTEST.

He would have continued the battle after securing the' desired stores until he - had compelled' the Spaniards to surrender but his scouts from tho.lftiyaziftk roads 'came",in porting 1,000 Spaniardscoming from either of these towns to reinforce lioniche.
