Yesterday the Bull-fights began in the Amphi-
theatre before the gate •of Alcala. They began at
ten o'clock in the morning, and lasted till one, and
again a second time at five, and continued till four-
teen bulls were killed. The concourse of people
was prodigious, as no entertainment of the kind had
been known for several years ; aod the fondness of
the Spaniards for these fights approaches almost to
madness. Next Saturday these bull-fights will be

repeated. •

Court Martial on those who signed the Copenhagen
Capitulation, adjudges some to be shot, some to be

however, it is expeaed,- will be mitigated.
The English have now entirely left the Island of
Sprogoe, but not till they had ruined every thing
in it. They demolished the walls of the houses, and
carried away the doors and windows.
