Pull Fight —A correspondent of the Montre
al Herald gives the lotlioxvin" in{erestiri<i al
though cruel account of a bull-fight, which took
p-ace at Madrid on the 2’2d ult.—“An incident
occurred a’ tip: bull-fight on Monday, which,
though not exactly in place in a political corres
pondence, exites more attention than all the di
plomatic intrigues, which are so mean in reality,
and look so formidable on paper.—The largest
and fiercest bull \\ hieii has been seen in the Plaza
this season convulsed the spectators with delight,
by k: iigg six horses within almost as mauv mi
times I'lte picador Sevilla, whose arm is like
iron and xvho has a heart of steal, after being
hrice unhorsed, attacked the enemy: and again
uniV.rtiJuatelv let the bull pass inside him—that is
to say, between him and the barrier which sur
rounds the Pinza, which the toreros leap over
wbeu noth pursued. Tiu* bull, as if aware of
ins advantage, rushed at him with ovet whelm
ing lorce, and knocked down ouri3evilla and his
horse as a child knocks down a nine-pin, and
then,alter plunging his horns twice into the poor
b ute rushed at the rnan b u»e, who was strug
gling to disengage himself from the horse. In
vain the toreros, with their scarfs threw them
in tite bull’s eyes, and practiced all artifices by
which he is usually drawn from his fallen vic
tim, as i.is fury is directed against the colored
silk, and not acainst the hand that waves it,—
the furious beast made two attempts, to toss the
man. but each time he missed iiis mark and
gored the horse. He xxas bending his neck for
a final etlbrt, which would have sent the pica-
do: to the other world, when the celebrated
Matador Montes tushed ftom the crowd of chu
rns and laid iiold of the bull’s tail, and absolute
ly, by pulling at it, and hanging on it with his
whole weight,'called off ihe bull’s attention and
enabled the other toreros to bear away their
companion without injur*.. The bull became
still more Iunous at this new assault, and turn
ed tound and round, and galloped about, en
deavonng to get rid of this strange assailant,
bat Monies, yielding to every movement, held
on till the animal was in a degree spent with ex
ertion, w hen lie let loose his grasp, and stood
facing tiie buil, as if overawing him by his eye,
while the other stood pausing and glaring on
hail, bin not during to advance. In ihe mean-
t me the ten thousand people, including every
rank in society, xvere in an agony of fear and
delight; a cry xvas heard <>n every side, when
the picador v as about to be struck, and then
the wuole audience arose, waving kerchiefs
and clapping hands, when they saw their favo
rite spring f om the ranks and execute this
during manoeuvre.
‘ A breathies-s anxiety next prevailed for the
safely 01 Montes, hut when they saw him tri-
umphant, and tile mad bull almost tamed by his
power, they grew frantic iu applause, and I
tnought tiiey would have torn up the benches
witn j..y, while Montes stood composed before
the bull, taking utf his little black cap, and ac

he drove the sword at his neck, flung the weap.

his arm with the point of one horn. Montes
did not mind it, but when he gave another

TRIAL OF RICHARD LAWRENCE, j
For an attempt to assassinate the President of j
the United Slates.
[concluded.]
Mr. Redfern sworn.
Examined by Mr. Brent.—Have known Law-}
rence for sixteen years: I married his sister; first :
obser\’ed a change in him in 1833; in the fall of (
1832 he left Washington with an intention, as !
he said, of going to England; he loft in Novem- I
bor, and returned again in December, assigning
as a reason that the weather was too cold; in j
the spring of the next year, ho started again to j
go to New York or Philadelphia; he certainly j
got no further than Philadelphia; on his return !
this rime, he said the people would not let him ]
go; that this government opposed his going; j
that 1 and others had prevented bint; that he j
should not be able to go, until he got a ship i
and captain of his own; that when he got to Phi- j
ladelphia, he found all the papers so full about j
him, that he was obliged to come back. After :
his lie remained in my house six months, but \
did nothing; said he had no occasion; that he j
lived on his people; it was very' well for men '
such as me to work, but he had no need; that |
he had large claims on this government, which
were now before congress; and he used to attend !
congress regularly; he left my house in Janua
ry, 1834, but previous to this, had got quarrel- 1
some ivith his sister; said the colored girl luugh-
edat him, and that he would kill her; he said
that other people also laughed at him; he struck j
ail his sisters on several occasions, and once i
took up a four pound weight to throw at my i
wile; I have seen him pass since this time, but
never have spoken to him since 1833; he would |
go about the house without speaking for days
ogettier; but would talk and laugh to himself
lontinually in his own chamber; it was the gen
eral impression of the neighbours that he was
insane from the beginning ot 1833; his father
died on Capitol Hill—I think about the year
1821 or 1822.
Air. Brent inquired of the witness if Law-
rence held two estates iu England? [On ask-
ing Lawrence trie names of his estates he re
plied, very gravely, “Tregear and Kinnany!”
and they were attached to the crown of Eng
land. The witness of course answered in the
negative.]
Mr. Redfern farther stated his belief that Law
rence was insane not merely on one subject; but j
was suffering under general derangement.
By Mr. Key.—On the occasion when Law
rence struck my wife, I took him before Squire
Waters: he told the magistrate'he had no pow
er over him to commit him; do not recollect if
I represented him as a madman; he has done
very little work since 1833; never knew him to
drink.
By Mr. Brent.—The prisoner is a painter by
trade; used to amuse himself by drawing land-
scapes, sometimes till 10 or 11 o’clock at night.
Samuel Drury examined.
By Air. Brent.—Have knoxvn the prisoner
twenty-five-years, for the last yearhave observed
a change in his conduct; he would talk to himself
continually in his shop; he would sometimes say,
“d—n him, he does not know his enemy; I will
put a pistol—erect a gallows;” lie conceived
himself to be king Richard the third of F.ng-
land, and likewise king of this country; this was
about the latter end ol’ last December, or begin
ning of January; after that, 1 heard him say,
“d—n General Jackson! who’s General Jack,
son?” On one occasion a black boy called to
collect a bill, and Lawrence said he would call
and pay it; but, as soon as the boy had left, he
said, *‘d—n him! he don’t know who lie’s dun
ning!” He would stand at the door for hours,
wrapt in thought; and even when I passeikhitn
took no notice of me; he was continually talk
ing to himself; and would now and then burst
out into fits of laughter; 1 noticed no particular
change in him as to dress—he was always fond
of dress—but 1 did in Ids conduct and appear
ance; I 'nave often said he was a crazy man,
and have heard others say so; have heard the
boys call him king Richard; on the morning of
his attack on the president, he came to the shop
