An r,npor,an, Battle In Cuna.

The battle recently fought at Igu
ara, near Santo Espilitu, in Cuba,
between. the Spaniards and a de-
tachment Of the Liberating army,
and which. as confessed by the Span
ish organs OF Havana, resulted in n
victory for the Cubans, is regarded
by many well.informed persons as
the commencement Of the last act of
this bloody drama
Full details Of the battle aud its
immediate rcsult-tho entrance of
the Cubans into Santo Espiiitu-are
not yot to hand; but enough is
known to induce tho belief that the
affair was n most disastrous one for
the Spanish cause.
The city of Santo Espiritu is not
only the shire town Of the jurisdic-
tion Of the same name, but it is the
capital Of the rich territory known AS
the Cinco Villas. It's population is
estimated to-day at upward OF 81 900
souls
An ambuscade was laid by the
Cubans for the Spaniards. into which
the whclc Spanish column, which il
stated to have numbered 1000 men.
fell. and were either cut to pieces or
found safety in flight. At any ratio,
up to latest dates it isnot known how
many were saved.
The capture Of arms from the
Spanish depots in Santo Espiiitu, as
we'll as the accession to the Cuban
army of not less than 500 well armed
men, will naturally strengthen the
cause Of Cuba in the Cinco Villas,
now the most important stronghold
of Spain i'm the island.
