Osorio had marched to a very exposed position on the flank of the r araguayans • Marshal Caxias, with the bulk of the allied army, was at the left of llumaita, near San Solano, while the old position of the allies at Tujuty was held by Porto Alegre with about 12,000 men. On this extreme position, now occupied by the allies, we take the following from the Buenos Ayres Standard of August 11th, which says— " The line of communications which the allies have to maintain is so much exposed that unless the Brazilian squadron force the pass of the river at Humaita, the present position of the allied army is untenable. A combined attack on the enemy is mooted, but although the public of Buenos Ayres regard victory as certain, and immense prepara tions have been going on to celebrate the long-looked-for triumph, we cannot hesitate to say that the difficulties which the allies must encounter in an assault on the enemy's position are of such a character as to inspire grave fears as to the result. Had the allies, when they effected their flank movement, pushed on with energy, and at tacked the Paraguayans before they had time to concentrate their forces in front of San Solano, it is probable they would have forced Lopez behind the very walls of Humaita. But valuable time has been lost; the fleet never attempted a passage, and - the result is that the enemy not only defends the line at all points, but has cut right down on the road leading from Itapiru to San Solano, and swept off several hundred bead of cattle, bullock carts, &c. ; and, in fact, the allies preserve their commu nications with the river only by means of a powerful cavalry force under the command of Gen. Hornos." From the foregoing will be seen that it is extremely ' doubtful that the allies, even with their change of postition, will be able to make an attack with any L I chance of success, while the fleet is still inactive and unable to move from their position is fr,int of Curupaity. In the navy as well as in the army dissatisfaction prevails, and on board the man-of. ' war, Tacuary, the men had mutinied, thrown their ' officers overboard, and kept the captain close prisoner. All these symptoms show that the war is not popular with the rnas3es in Brazil or,At Buenos Ayres, and that they are worn out from a pro ' tracted three years' struggle, in which nothing has been gained—not even a dry foothold on Para guayan soil. k At Buenos Ayres files of papers had been received from the capital of Paraguay, Asuncion, and from Humaita, giving accounts of the usual quantity of crops, and it seems the country had suffered little or nothing by the war. A large wine factory had been established at Caraguatay. Festivities and picnics had been held at the capital, and a large review of the garrison on the hospital grounds, and all the ladies and countrywomen of the capital and pro vinces are sending in jewels and finery, offering their support to the army, and not to conclude peace as long as a foreign soldier stands upon the soil, display ing fully the patriotism of this small but brave nation. The interior provinces of the Argentine Confedera tion are still in a state of anarchy and rebellion, and alarming intelligence had been received from Entre Rios that General Urquiza was arming his forces. Congress at Buenas Ayres had been dis cussing the capital question, and the bill was passed moving it to Rosario. This change will seriously injure Buenos Ayres, and may possibly again bring about the dismemberment of the Argentine Union. , Admiral Davis had arrived in the Guerriere at Rio • to relieve Admiral Godon. It was currently repc,rted that he brings important instructions from the Cabinet of Washington with regard to the media tion in the war now now pending between the allies and Paraguay, and which iutervcntion, it will be remembered, when first offered wasrejected by Brazil and k.n. allies. The commercial intelligence from Buenos Ayres and Montevideo is not very encourag ing, if we except a thriving trade that was being done in army supplies ; but it was much feared that the day army bills could not be discounted that day would see an end to the war, and both Brazil and Buenos Ayres are making home loans and treasury bids, and the former emitting paper currency to a large extent in Buenos Ayres. It was currently rumoure d that large amounts of National Bonds had been forged, and it was prob able the Government would call in these securities for iuspection. Grain was very scarce, and largo quantities in demand for the seat of war. Specie had been largely exported, and sovereigns stood at a premium, and will continue so until the wool begins to come in and the Saladeros commence working.

Gentlemen, — With the approval of the Committee of the Liberal party in your new burotigh, 1. offer myself as a can,lidate for the honour of becoming your representative in the next Par liame t. A considerable portion of my life has been passed in the service of the State in India, where for several years I have been at the head of •the Government of Weill ; but during my absence from tlds country I have ever watched closely the course of political events, and have had dcep'y at heart the triumph of Liberal principles. I rejoice in the extension of the suffrage effected by the recent Act; for I bold that the safety of our institutions lies iu admitting the people to a large share of political Power. But I consider the measure of redistribution of seats quite inadequate, and I trust that the attention of the Reformed Parliament will be early given to remove the glaring anomalies of the present scheme. Viewing with aversion the employment of any Mud of intimidation or moral pressure with the object of influ encing a man's vote, I will support the Ballot as an effec tive protection to the elector in the free exorcise of his night. For the suppression of bribery I have faith in the im proved tone of public opinion on this subject ; but I would also like to see the giving and receiving bribes made criminal offences, with the heaviest penalties to fall on the giver. Foremost among the measures that will have my hearty support are the abolition of church rates and of flogging in the army, the equalisation of poor rates, the settlement of the Irish Clawch question, the opening of the Universities to members of all religious denominations, and a compre hensive system of national unsectarian education. In foreign policy I am for non-intervention, though my sympathies as a Liberal are with the friends of constitu tional freedom in every land. I naturally take deep interest in the affairs of India, and much of my attention would be given to them. My view of our duty to the people of that country is to fit them for self-government by diffusing education and by freely ad mitting theta to officer of trust and emolument; for I hold that a foreign rule can never bo popular which excludes the natives of -a eountivirom. all share in its admi nistration. I should recognise as leader of the Liberal party - than great statesman and sincere friend of the people, Mr. Glad stone, to whom the satisfactory result of the recent mea sure of Reform is mainly due, since nearly all his demands were complied with by the Government- Should I be honoured with your choice, I hope that the habits of application to business which I have acquired in the course of my career in India may render me not incom petent to discharge to your satisfaction all the duties that solicitude in your local interests may impose on me. I hopo for an early opportunity of meeting you, when I will be ready to give any explanation that may be re quired of my views on the above and other subjects. I have the honour to remain, Gentlemen, Your most obedient servant, CHARLES WINGFIELD. 10, Groat Cumberland-street. All communications to be addressed to T. Gilbert, jun., 47, Charing-cross.

The Fenian Outrage. MANCHESTER, Saturday. Investigations, judicial and extrajudicial, are continuing to elicit very grave and startling proofs that the recent outrage near this city was the act of a wide-spread and highly organised conspiracy. An instance of the mischievous activity of the Fenian plotters against the peace of England, in England, was afforded last Thursday, and may now without risk of embarrassing the precautionary plans of the authorities, be mentioned in this place. Cer tain trustworthy information had been given to the heads of the police that bands of men, under pre tence of seeking agricultural work, were gathering round a city in which Government arms are stored. The chief of the London detective branch of police, at Scotland-yard, Inspector Williamson, is in Man chester, with another experienced officer from head quarters, Sergeant Clark ; and the two were ad vised by telegraph of all the circumstances in good time, as now appears from facts that have been dis covered. The place round which great numbers of Irishmen, hugely 61 excess of any present demand for field labaur, and suspiciously well provided with reaping implements, had congregated, is in an ad joining county, and is distant from Manchester about 40 miles. The two Loudon officers, who aro looking after Fenian affairs principally in this city, took rail for the place which I have not precisely in dicated, though there would be no fear of harm in naming it, and were back again before their absence had been noted here. The visit, brief as it was, sufficed to counterrlot a desperate enterprise, and to avert bloodshed in the midst of a very peaceable and rather dull community. The examination of prisoners before the bench of the Manchester Police-court drags tediously along, every possible obstacle to its progress being interposed by the learned gentlemen de fending the accused prisoners. The notable device for stopping the whole proceedings until Tuesday or Wednesday next was this morning broached by Mr. Roberts, within somewhat peculiar circum stances. The terms of the application which that gentleman made for an adjournment will be found in the subjoined report; but some brief account showing how this incidental matter of discussion arose may be both useful and interesting. In an early stage of the day's business Mr. Cottingham was making much of a grievance relating to the production of witnes ses for the defence , when Mr. Iliggin, the counsel fo r the prosecution , said, half jestingly and with natural signs of impatience, " IVell, there's an Act of Parliament which comes into operation in a few days from this time, and which will enable you to compel the attendance of witnesses. If you'd like to have the case adjourned I shan't offer any opposition." Mr. Co ttin g ham took the hint, and hastily communic ated to the attorney who instructs him, Mr. Roberts , the sub stance of Mr. Iliggin's remark. Th ereu p on, and positively on no more maturely considere d g round, Mr. Roberts based a grave and emotio nal a pp eal to the bench. It appeared, after all, that only one or two of the prisoners could have been affected by the magistrate's decision of the point one way or the other; so that the hastily concocted scheme which Messrs. Roberts and Cottingham had borrowed from Mr. Higgin had hardly a chance of success. After the despatch of yesterday's parcel several witnesses for the prosecution were examined. George Moorhouse, a warehouseman, identified Allen, Larkin, Gould, and William Martin, as having been present at the affray in the Hyde-road, and Thomas Barlow proved having captured Allen and witnessed the capture of Gould. Mr. Higgin stated that as the evidence against I%.l‘Williams was only very slight, he should not proceed further against him. M‘Williams was consequently discharged, and the examination was adjourned. This morning the prisoners, twenty-seven in number, were brought up under military guard. Mr. Robinson Fowler was, as before, the presiding magistrate, and was accompanied on the bench by the city justices and several of the officers of the Bth Hussars and 57th Regiment. Mr. Iliggin, deputy-recorder, conducted the prosecution ; Mr. Cottingham, barrister, and Messrs. Roberts, Ben net, and Ward, attorneys, prisoners. for the defence of the The position of the prisoners was changed, in accordance with a suggestion made on their behalf, it having been declared that some of them had reason to think the witnesses knew exactly where to look for them. Mr. Roberts, on behalf of those whom lie represented, asked for an adjournment until the Ist October, when an Act of Parliament giving power to enforce the attendance of witnesses, and making provision for the payment in certain cases of the expenses of the witnesses necessary for the defence of accused persons, will come into oper ation. He said there were at least twenty persons who had given him information, which he believed to be truthful, as to the absence of some of the pri soners from the scene of the outrage ; but they said it would be ruin to them if they were to appear in any way that would subject them to a charge of com plicity with Fenianistn. Mr. Cottingham supported Mr. Roberts's appli cation, remarking that if a committal for trial took place before the Act came into operation, there Mr. Fowler—Are you instructed to ask that, Mr. would be no means of getting certain witnesses.
