A luU fi^ht of a novel kind took p'aca at Tarragona recently, the performeis being women clothed in the male ti/rara suit. The balls were aU young an 1 full uf tire. Tae first one let in'o the arena made straight lor o je of (be toreras, aud seat her spioniog in tbe saud several yards off. A second tor- era rttshed to the rescue with her oapa. waich sue waved before the ball to draw off its attention from her discomfited oolleagae, Tae bull accepted tbe challange at oace,and witharapd tiriit of the neck caaght the bandsrilltt and sent her flying. Sae ftll on her face, and followed the previous toreri in ber retirement^ bleeding from several scratches. The third torera then advsnced; but no sooner had the boll oaugbt sight of bar than he ' oinded toward bcr and tOMed her. AHer tiiis the bull took a qaiet wa^k aroand tbe arena, waiting for fresh spore No furthir competitor entering the l.st, the crowd began to show signs of impltience, which grew at every momsnt, ontil they finally began breaking np the seats and throwmg brickbats into tbe arena, yelling anathemas at the cowardice of tne to'eri company. The stewards then aimojnced that tae money would be returned. This was done p irtiatly; but the cashier's ofSca suddenly closed, tbat official having boltad witb tbe rest of tbe takings. A scena of indescribable aprpar ocsurred wnen tbe fact became known, and the work of di molition was porsued with increased fury. Tae gendarmes w ra called in to re- store order, but only succeeded madding to the general coumaion. in which they were roogbly ba idled. Tne arrival of tbrae com- psniea of infantry enabled the managers to clear the amphitheatre. Tae mjst excraw- dinary part of the affair is cb ^t, undeterred by tbe fate of the first company cf toreras and their manager, who were marched off to prison besides, the workwcmen ol the to- bacco faetories of Mvlrid are preparing to give an exhibition of their p owes4, and a troupe is organizi g to do the round of the arenas in au the print ipal towns of Spun.
