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.

The Cubans bail all at stake. They went. into the battle with the cries of their wives and children ringing in their ears. 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. Quesada, un der other circumStances,would not have risked a battle against so large a Spanish garrison, which, in all particulars , ryas well appointed and - CADDYINO THE OUTSIDE ENTRENCHMENTS. headwa.Yatsluarter to' 5 o'clock. 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. ' ' • THE DEMOHAtIZATION OF THE GARRISON The suddenness and early hour of the at tacl,logether with the 'grand army ,which Quesada had runcsed before the city, demoral ized nearly the.whole garrison, Bomche alone seemed to.realize.the. position. Had he par taken of the momentary demoralization of the troops all therarrison would have been captured.

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. Artillery, infantry, and cavalry hast ened pelt mell into that square, • which being surrounded bylarger and stronger stone build ' ngs - thanrthasturrounding - Iroti s, formed fi • them an easily defended fortress. At noon Quesada • had pectired ; s3,o9o,ooo worth of stores of all QUESADA GATHERING SUPPLIES. Half his command kept Boniche's army en gaged, while the other halt pillaged groceries, warehouses, retail and wholesale stores alike. 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. As air eVidence of the 'significance of this action,Carlos Manuel Cespedes, his Cabinet, and narly the whole number of the members of ' the Republican Congress arrived in the neighborhood of Las Tunas at 11 A.

At a quarter past 1 o'clock, nine and a half hours after the battle was begun, Gen. Questula ordered - a retreat from the city. 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.

Shortly after this publication, the editor re. ceived the following very . pithy epistle, evi dently from one of McMullin's crowd: "Packer will be elected in spite of and maybe McMullin will be elected Secre tay of state • • , 'lf you were in this city and talk that , way about Bib, you (both) would be , strung up to a lainp post in - street, by Demol "Geary is smart, but he don't come tip to Packer, no bow. , Geary was in no war, but got his leg cut oft' in a saw-null." This shows the animus of the McMullin party. Their leader proclaims club law and , murder at the election if he is not permitted to choose the officers lathe Demoeratiewards; and his followers, imitating their great leader, proclaim death to all who treat him disrespect fully. Packer ought to be proud of this wind of his supporters. —Mr. Adam Everly, the young actor who won popularify aisd local fame last year as a prominent member of the Arch Street Thea tre Compap . y, has beenea g aged by the mat:la ger of the Varieties—the leading theatre or New Orleans—as a principal member of the company, and will enter upon his (titles when the season opens.

Equal durability and driving power with leather, belt ing:, guaranteed, except 'when used for shifted belts; none are made narrower than live inches. It does _not stretch, nor change shape, and can be made in one piece, of any desired length and width and thickness, and is uniforin in every particular. It bugs the pulley surfaces closely; g . enerates no electricity while running; is sufficiently flexible to pass over six-inch pulleys without cracking; is not injured by the heat, dust, oil or moisture inei dent to ordinary use.. It is forty per cent. cheaper than leather. •, • • Cast-iteel washers for bolts subjected to violent shocks, patented and manufactured by William Wharton, Jr., of this city, were also shown. 'These are `cup-shaped disks, Which, by reason of their shape, have enough elasti city to yield ' lightly to vitilent shocks, and thus prevent the stretching of the bolts, which would otherwise occitrand render them , loose. After a full account of, various chemical and electrical novelties, a very entertaining ac , count of the work, done during the eclipse by the Philadelphia expedition'was given,, and ill'ustrated by an extensive set of photographs thrown en the screen, and hypthers onvaper, large, small and stereoscopic, prepared by Mr. James Cremer, the, well-known phcitographer of Eighth street. Front the , professor's remarks we extract the following matters of special interest; These pi l ett it ir T e. i s AL 'h r o ll ue miE the ll v c a. l Ci ilß ous EB enn-sputs .. visible at the tfine (about six in' number) with definition, the larger ones being surrounded by a.marked fringe of faeulce; and give, also, a distinct granulation. over the general surface of the sun. solar surface, where it' is in contactwith the. edge of the moon'. This, Which*ould seem to, indicate, according, to Prof. Challis; the presence of a very .tare '• lunar atmosphere, is: unmistakably manifest on all themegatives, and confirms the: observation made by Prof. Stephen Alexander, in 1831 and 1860; when he. noticed it on the photographs that,were then taken. TOTALITY PICTURES—TILE PROMINENCES. During the totality thirteen pictures," in all,. were oaken with the three instruments., One - of the Ottumwa pictures, exposed at the very. last , instant before totality, shows a photo graphic record of the curious phenometion known as Bailly's beads, being simply the last glimpse of the sun's edge cut ' y the peaks of lunar mountains into irregular spots. One of the'objects which it was considered desirable t secure, if sec if possible, was a view Of, the corona. It Was with this intent that some of the exposures were made SO . long. Examination of the negatives shows - us tbat five seconds was more than sufficient to se cure, all the details of the protuberances, al though it gave no decided indication of ' the corona. It is a curious coincidence, that in this case, as well as in the pictures made by De la Rue, in 18438, and the English and German party lagt year, all the more interesting prominences are situated on the border of the sun furthest from the advancing moon;and are thus best shown in the pictures first exposed. The most conspicuous prominence is that which, at a hasty glance,- seems to reseinble the letter X, but, on more careful inspection, is perceived to be like an ear of corn. It con sists of a solid central mass inclined at an angle of about 45 deg. to the normal at the solar sur face, and with three branches from near its upper 'end, one sweeping backwards in a direction generally parallel tb.the solarsurtice, - another'forward, as concerns the direction of the general mass, and a third branching out a little below and running iu the same direction as this last. The ,appearance of the main body, which is of a !ipindle 'shape, and with spiral markings; is highly suggestive of a vortical motion which has 'swept. these whiffs of light matter into theirpeculitu• positions. It appears, however, beyond. doubt, that motion amid the light surrounding the sun, was observed, as there is much accordant , tes timony on the subjet. But this motion, as we shall 'presently see,. there is 'every -reason to believe existed in the corona,and not in the proininences, which, however, might easily .have the 'appearance of movement, it' seen against a background of ,'shifting light. To -this-subjectall-reftsi,-again-when-sneak ing of the corona. .Inimediately to the right of this ear of corn was seen a region of soft light, among which rise tWo similar spindle-shaped masses inclin ing towardathe corn ear. To 'the left'appears a mass of rolling cloud disposed in beautiful streams and .curls; like the smoke from a bonfire or burning meadow, swept gently toward one side by, a light wind. ,In. connection with these are some , small masses, entirely detached and floating, above the general body, as was the case in De la Rue's pictures. ' Other solid nodular masses appear at other points; but the next most notable prominence is one which --attracted: the attention of all observers, and appeared. to occupy a position. ,on.the lowermost edge-of the sun. It. is -most 7eleart'filit&wnc uTthe - 1 a..l;:etiTres _..taken...at each station; and - resembles, in 'shape, agreat whale with a body made up of' dense cumu lous cloud matter,: with 's'al 'long' tail ."clinging close to thesoTar'edge,' , . , baid.•:stretehing some 40,000 miles., along, , The length of the entire BUSS' , is 'llO,OOO - and the height of its more bulky pertignabont 28,000 while its, length .beiog'.alfopt 70,000 miles, We would , have for, its cubic capacity, assuming Oaths extent-in the re maining direCtion, is equal to its height, about 54880,000,000,000, cubic To the right ; at' this, and only slaciWing its enthrtathigth in the.last pieture of each:series, is a caterpillarlikomhss of Cloud matter, very much like the solid rolls of horizontal vapor whiehltral3ornetittie.s-seenpassingovernisheet of water: .At one end rises a projectipg head,.

Then they marched back to the Sets View House, where, through the kindness-of the residents of Athletic City, an elegant dinner was prepared for them, of which they, partook with a keen•relish. Dinner over, they were permitted to stroll on the beach and amuse themselves as they pleased until three' o'clock - , when at the tap of drura they again assembled in the immense dining-room of the Sea View House, where they sang some of their pretty songs in good style, limier the direction of .31. r.
