THE WAR IN PARAGUAY.

DEFEAT OF THE PARAGUAYANS.
(Per the Guienne.)
Rio DE JANEIRO, May 24.
The news from the seat of war is up to the 10th
instant.

Another battle has been fought in Paraguayan
territory, and another victory has been gained by
the allies, being the third in less than a month.
General Flores, who commands the vanguard,
had planned an attack on the enemy's camp, and
having on the morning of the 2d sent out reconnoi-
tering parties, the ground was declared quite clear.
At about midday, however, a column of about
6,000 Paraguayans,
with eight guns and 1,200
cavalry, emerged from a small wood in front of the
camp of the vanguard, and, driving in the outposts,
opened a heavy fire, followed up by bayonet
charges, for which the allies were quite unprepared,
as the men were receiving their dinner rations. Two
Brazilian and two Montevidean battalions of volun-
teers, composed exclusively iof recruits, and unable
to form in time, were driven back. The Brazilian
battalions, however, the 7th of the line and the Ist
Volunteers, being well drilled, formed square, and
for some time resisted alone and with great firmness
the deadly fire and charges of large masses of
Paraguayans, which caused heavy losses.
Victory appeared to frown on the allies, and they
would have lost the day but that General Ozorio,
who was in his tent with Admiral Tamandure, hear-
ing the firing,immediately ordered two battalions of
volunteers of the 6th Brigade, who were under
arms, to the front in double quick time, galloping
himself to the scene of action. The volunteers
arrived almost at the same time as the General.
They formed in line of attack, the charge was
sounded, and, as described by an Englishman who
was an eye-witness, this Brazilian band of heroes
cut through a solid square of Parguayans, and thus
saved Flores. From that moment the Paraguayans
turned. It the meantime the other battalions, which
had been driven back at the.biginning Of the action,
had been able to reform, and; dashing forward, com-
pletely routed the Paraguayans, who were driven
back at the point of the bayonet for nearly a league,
with enormous losses in men, besides three guns,
two flags, and a large quantity of small arms cap-
tured by the victors, who proceeded to occupy the
Paraguayan camp. _

The Paraguayan losses exceed 1,000 killed, be-
sides a large number of wounded and prisoners.
The Brazilians left 148 killed, about 500
wounded, and a few missing. The Montevideans
lost 40 killed and 200 wounded.
Whilst this was taking place in the front, Gene-
ral Mitre's camp had also been attacked, but he
drove back the Paraguayans with some loss. The
Argentines lost 10 killed and a few wounded, and
captured a flag.
At the first dash the Paraguayans managed to
seize four pieces, which Gen. Ozorio had lent Flores
for his proposed expedition, and which had im-
prudently been placed within 300 yards of the wood.
Ozorio had the previous evening made a remark
about the position of those same guns, fearing a
surprise, but his opinion had been overruled by
Mitre and Flores, the consequence being the loss
of those field pieces, which the Paraguayans har-
nessed to their cavalry and fairly ran away with.
This battle took place about 80 miles inland
from the banks of the Parana, at a place called
Estero Belaco (Treacherous Swamp). Ozorio's
horse was killed under him. Flores lost two of his
aide-de-camps, who fell dead at his side, and also
had two horses killed.

The gallantry of the lst.and 7th battalions has
been much praised, even by the Argentines and
Orientals. _ _

Lopez is supposed to have retired to Curupaity,
a strong fort a little below liumaita, which the fleet
was preparing to attack, and from which it is said
liumaita may be shelled.

The leader of the Conservatives in the Brazilian
Senate, Viscount Itaborahy, on the second reading
of the resolution which authorises for this year
the budget of the last year, proposed an amendment
which passed by six votes, and if it pass the third
reading a fusion will be the consequence, and
ministers will gain the day, as they have a majority
of 26 or 27 votes in the deputies.
