The War in Spain. HOW TIE IMS FIGHT. A Battle Between the Car- lists and Regulars. THAT THUNDERING, WILD CHARGE OF CAVALRY. The Flashing Zouaves, the “Corps d’Elite,” and howjtJjejJiive. 8XETCHES OF NOTED LEABEES. Cucala, Saballs and Costells. Special correspondence N. Y. Herald. A correspondent of the New York Herald forward* to that paper a very interesting letter on the war in Spain, extracts from which we publish to-day. He says, describing a battle in which 1,200 Carlists met 4,000 Republicans: It will be seen, therefore, that the country between San Felin and Prats is a difficult one to traverse. The latter town is visible from the height which, it has been said, the Car- lists had just gained. Not many minutes after the crest had been reached THE ENEMY was signalled approaching from San Felin directly in our path. We afterwards learned that he did not expect to meet us there, and the surprise thus caused explained the hesi tation manifest in his ranks. The Carlist commanders dashed nervously here and there, rapidly taking possession of advantageous positions. The cavalry, about seventy horses, was posted out of sight of the enemy, behind a knob on the crest of the mountain and facing west. The Prince and Princess took up their position at some distance from and to the left of the cavalry, two companies of Zoaaves remaining with them as a personal escort. In one of these companies oat gallant friend from Wicklow appeared, shouldering a Chassepot. More than half an hour passed before the en emy ventured to stir. At length, however, he was observed cautiously ascending the southern declivity of the mountain and form ing as well as the nature of the ground would permit Those that formed advanced at once, firing and shouting. But the Carlists, having arrived first on the ground, had had time to rest, and were cooler in delivering their fire, which was effective, and checked the enemy’s advance. .Company after com pany rose from the ground and advanced in their turn upon the enemy, who showed no great heart for the fight His men dropping in considerable disproportion those who lefl on the Cailist side. For more than en hour both sides skirmished without any material advantage having been gained by either; bnt the enemy had in the meantime been getting his artillery up the mountain, and presently opened with four pieces. A shell borst close to the cavalry and another right over the head of the Prince. Then it was that Cucala announced to his men that he was going to take the ene my's artillery. He ordered them to advance without firing, and charge when they got close to the guns. The cavalry was sent forward at the same time to support the attack and charge when possible. It will be remembered that many of the cavalry were old soldierp, and knew their business; nevertheless the idea of a cavalry charge on the top of a mountain, over rock3, gullies, fallen trees and other senous impediments, had something in it between the sublime and ridiculous difficult to reconcile with our notions of scientific war. One thing, how ever, was very certain--the guns must be captured or the battle lost. This Cacala saw, and therefore determined to lead his hardy mountaineers of the Maestrazzo where lay the point of danger. THE CHARGE. For a short distance the ground was tolerably practicable for the cavalry, who rushed for ward fearlessly, passing Cncula’s men. This was too much for that justly renowned chief. Leaving his men, he joined the cavalry, rid ing fall in front and dashing, one may almost say, alone upon the enemy’s ranks. The men followed him in the most heroic manner, hew ing down all before them, and passing the guns, which they did not stop to take, bnt pressed on, pursuing the enemy, who broke and fled on every side in the utmost conster nation and confusion. There never was a madder or more magnificent and decisive charge of cavalry, aud its success was against all calculation and in the teeth of all proba bility. Before Gncala’s men arrived the ene my had time to save one gun, a second was rolled down the mountain into the ravine, and the remaining two were captured—one with equipment complete, the other without any. CUCALA. Picture a man about five feet seven, and at least four feet between the shoulders. He may be fifty-five or sixty-five years old; it is impossible to determine from his appearance. They say he has but one eye; but this also can not be determined by looking in his face, which is almost as brown as the rough jacket of homespun upon his back. Upon his head is a white boma and by his side trails a sabre, which is more properly a falchion; possibly a weapon carried by an ancestor who went to Jerusalem with Cceur de Lion or Godfrey de Boullion. Bat one other such is to be seen in the Carlist army, and that, as it should be, is carried by his chief of staff, ai unpretending countryman, wearing the same coarse homespun, with the addi tional luxury ol a blue blouse. There are no braver men living than these two. Oar re markable chief rkles a huge black horse, al together unfit, one would suppose, for trav ersing the mountains; but then his operations are carried on mostly in the comparatively flat territory of Lerida. In the charge at Orista he received a ball through the left arm, and another which cut his shoulder. He did not stop an instant, tup, with the blood streaming from his wounds, dashed on furiously, waving his gigantic sabre, which, wherever it flashed and descended, left a vic tim. A FRESH ENEMY. Fire minutes after the capture of the ene my's guns, the head of another column ap peared on the crest of the mountain, imme diately south of the battlefield. This was the column of Brigadier General Camps, who ar rived jnst in time to witness the ront of his friend, Col. Alvarez. At the same time scouts reported the advance of another column of the enemy, etfst of Orista. This last was a portion of Alvarez’s corps, which that officer detached from Ban Felin, in order to recon noitre the country around Orista. It now became necessary for the victorious Carlists to cease the pursuit of their flying enemy, and abandon the field of battle. Camps made no attempt to renew the fig ht and, when he followed, was in no horry to overtake his triumphant adversaries. Again, he mentions what we can hardly believe: At tha risk once more of being suspected of exaggeration, I must mention a circum stance which is as true as the battle itself, and shows the HORRIBLE BARBARITY to which men will sometimes suffer them selves to descend. The fact in question is that certain individuals of either Alvarez’s or Camp's column appeared in Pruts with THE EARS OF CARLIST DEAD OR WOUNDED worn as trophic.*. Comment is quite unnec essary. I very sure, however, that no Carlist voiunter vwonld dare exhibit such tro phies to hi* chief, iiowever well disposed he might be to indulge in the lnxnry. Bnt in what was once tbe^army of Spain there is now neither discipline?, decency, conrage nor virtue of any kind. All that it once had of good has been drained .oat of it by what is fiddly, slanderously or ignorantly called “re- puwHcanism.” AT ALIENtt. and every one carries upon his breast the handsome badge of the Sacred Heart of Our Redeemer or lk8 Papal arms. Many of them served under the Charrette daring fhe war between France and Prussia, and carry French decorations. One of these heroes has as many as six medals strong along his breast. It is needless to say they are well armed— some with Chassepot, others with Reming tons, the latter weapon being preferred by most. The entire force of these brave volun teers is rarely, if ever, present, the fatiguing marches of the Prince obliging all in turn to drop out of the ranks and rest in some retir ed country house. The number usually pres ent, therefore, will not exceed one hundred and twenty. Anxious as they naturally are to see their numbers increase, they are, nev ertheless, remarkably exclusive. All nation alities are admitted, but the candidate must possess certain moral as well as physical qualities. A young man -presenting himself without high recommendations in regard to morality, stands no chance of admission. I know of more than one instance where ad mission was refused. And if a member should show the white feather on the field he would have his discharge in half an hour. THIS CORPS D’ELITE is commanded by a young Hollander, Ignatius Mary Will, of Rotterdam. One may be sure that he deserves his post, if devoted courage and fervent piety can make a man deserve anything on earth. Apparently not more than twenty-five years old, he is already a veteran He fought at Rome, served through the late war in France, has been many months in Catalonia, and bears the scars of no less than thirty bullet wounds. His uniform is a curi osity, being riddled and cut by balls which have passed through it in all directions with out even scratching him. In short Command ant Will has a pretty good record. In a fight he is as much as possible on horseback, and exposes himself in the most reckless manner, not at all through a spirit of senseless brdvado but through a profound and pious faith in the divine protection. He says he has asked God not to spare him wonnds and suffering, but to spare his life, that he may see home once more. The Guides are about as numerous as the Zouaves, and, with two or three exceptions, are ail Spaniards. Their uniform is showy- scarlet jacket, light blue pants, white boma, and red leggings. By the way, all the Car- lists in Catalonia wear red cloth leggings— polainas, in the language of the country. Like the other Carlist corps, the Guides are not uniformly armed; for it must be remem bered that the Remington’s, Berdans, and other good weapons now so numerous in the Carlist ranks, have, with few exceptions, been all taken from the enemy. The Guides have behaved well on several occasions, and are re garded as quite a crack corps. Their com mandant was severely wounded at Puycerda, and is still at the hospital in Prats, slowly re covering. Among the officers and men of both Zoaaves and Guides the opinion prevails that it would be better to incorporate the lat ter in the former; but the Prince has thus far refused to listen to the proposition. Soon er or later, however, the two corps will be united. He then touches in a graphic manner as to how the troops live on the line of match. HOW THEY LIVE ON THE MARCH. It often becomes necessary to avoid the towns, even the most friendly, and the next best thing to do is to pass the night in one of the large country houses, fortunately very nu merous in Catalonia. But fancy eight, ten, twelve hundred men arriving, tired and fam ished, at even the largest and most commodi ous of those houses. Fancy the confusion of the servants, the despair of the cook, the anxiety of the master and mistress, the run ning hither and thither in breathless haste, amid the darkness and deafening noise of so many tongues wagging at once. Here comes a servant girl, with two or three huge loaves of olack bn ad on her head, and of course she falls with a scream over a dozen rifles carelessly placed in her way, to the great delight of the men, who pick her np and applaud with their hands as she darts away in confusion. Nearby an officer is scoldiug a group of men with astonishing energy of language and gesture, and endeavoring to make himself heard above the laughter, the talk, the snatches of song, coming to drown his voice from every side. Scores have thrown themselves on the floor, tables and benches to rest while awaiting supper, which is being got ready by some of their comrades, the family cook being engaged in providing some thing for the Prince and Princess. Luckily the cooking utensils are on a vast scale in those houses, aDd* supper for one thousand men can be prepared in an hour. How long that hour has appeared ! Speaking for my-: self, it has always appeared three instead of lone. ■ Let us visit the kitchens. In each of tka two or three there are twenty or thirty men hard at work, beating np eggs for an omelet, frying thick slices of fat bacon, stirring up huge pots of beans, slicing bread for the in evitable soap, without which no Catalan can sleep; washing cabbages, peeling potatoes, cr preparing a salad. Each cooking place is nearly as wide as the whole side of the house, and there is room for all who wish to warm or dry themselves. In due course of time the soup is an nounced. It consists of boiling water, slices of bread, a little oil, and a seasoning of young, green garlic. It is invariably consumed to the last drop, and in the midst of the most profound silence. It is the Catalan dish,par ex cellence, and brings with it thoughts ot home. Then comes the omelets, the beans (munge- tas), the bacon, and so on, and conversa tion is resumed. The officers, and those who can spend a little money on extras, club to- L gether, and have one of the men attend to their wants. He buys what he thinks proper, cooks and serves, and is so far a luxary iu himself. I have never found poor wine in j Catalonia except near the frontier. Else- j where it is excellent, very cheap, and the most j useful article we had, more especially to such of us as were unaccustomed to long marches. A porro of wine, holding more than a quart, can be had anywhere for six cents. This ves sel has a long spont, terminating m quite a small point, and you true Catalan drinks by inverting it a foot or so above his head, and dexterousty catching the w ine as it flows in a thin, strong stream from the narrow’ extremity of tbe spout into his half open mouth. SABALLS AND HIS MEN. Before General Tristan y (pronounced Tris tan) left the Prince, we were joined by Gen. Seballs, at the head of about four hundred men. We had halted in a field on the edge of a wood to await him, word having been previously received that he was coming. After waiting at least an hour I observed two horsemen, in flaming red uniforms, gallop np to the spot where the Prince and Princess were standing. There they immediately dis mounted and saluted their highnesses with extreme politeness. They were Saballs and OFFICE AND SALES ROOM No. 9 E. ALABAMA STREET.

When tbe ill-mannered enemy interrupted me I was engaged in as attempt to deacribe what I bare seen, and now, in this qniet re treat, which I must leate to-morrow or next day, I will try to resume tbe thread of my narrative. It has already been elated that Don Alfonso’* personal command is composed chiefly of the Zouaves and Guides. The for mer area eplendid body of Tonne rr*D, most of whom were in the Frpnl service prior to September, 1870. Th<jr,re*t toe uuuorm worn by them in Rome, with scarlet homes, his chief of staff, a eon of the Marquis de Sa- bater, for whom, as it happened, I had a let ter. The General had come on in advance of bis men, who came np half an hoar after wards. I was somewhat disappointed at the appear ance and manner of the celebrated leader. He has not at all the fierce look his photographs give him, but quite a jovial, pleasant expres sion, notwithstanding his lean, brown face and long white moustache combed across his sunken cheeks, with, one might mali ciously imagine, an evident desire to look as terrible os possible. His eyes are blue, or light gray, and their pleasant twinkle im pressed me at once with tho idea that he was not sQcb a bad fellow, after all. The first good chance I got I walked up and sa inted him in French, which he speaks like a native, without a particle of foreign accent that I could discover. He shook me warmly by the hand, and inquired if I could give him any news of hiH family. I was happy to he able to do so, having the honor of knowing Mdme. Saballs and his daughters at Perpig nan. He remarked that he had had no news j from his wife for months, and had been much distressed on hearing that she bad been expelled from Pernignan. He laughed and said, with an emphatic nod or two, “ I believe my wife knows I have no time to write letters; bnt .if yon see her, do me the favor to say you fouD<l me and my son (pointing to a youth who sat near him on horseback, listeniug attentively) quite well, thank God !" In personal appearance Saballs is a man of abont fifty-five, tall and thin,with a peculiarly wiry, hardy air about him. He dresses en tirely in scarlet, and wears long riding boots, with heavy spars. On bis breast are ten or dozen crosses and medals, and one very large, handsome decoration, about as big ss a saucer. His chief of staff, Don Felipe da Be- bater, and his son, wear the same showy style of uniform, bnt the decorations have not as yet been hung upon their youthful breasts.
