Correspondence Of The .Jonrnai Of Commerce..
MosrEupEo, Aug 30, 1889.
Lavealleja and Echagne are gaining ground in
The province They are advancing towards the city
with about $500 men, some Of whom have been sent
from Buenos Ayres to Entire Rios, and have pass
ed over the Uruguay 10 this side. Rivera, the Go
vernon OF this province, is not far from them with
MS army Du mas mus lar avoided coming 10 an en-
gagement with them On The other hand, Layalle,
a Monteyideo General, with about 1000 men, prin-
cpally emigrants from Buenos Ayres, was by The
last accounts still on the Island of Martin Garcia
and was about making descent either on Entire
Rios or Buenos Ayres. II is very uncertain how it
may terminate. The government Of Buenos Ayres
contrary TO the expectations OF most Of us still con-
tinues TO hold out as firm as ever against The de-
mands of the French: bul has scarcely any other
recourse than the emission Of sixteen million dollars
Of paper currency, which has been coming out for
some months past, but Is nearly done. How RozaS
will manage when this is all issued il is impossible
to say. Should another emission be attempted the
paper money would most likely all 20 down. L. IS
now about IA for one.
A French brig Of war arrived here from France
the 10th OF july and brings accounts Of new Ad-
miral being appointed for this station, who was to
leave soon. He is TO have discretionary power TO
settle the present difficulty.
Owing 10 the disturbances in the province, hides
have become very scarce and high, and very few in
the city Owing to the wet weather Tor the last Two
weeks, the roads and streams impossible, and no
hides can come in from the country.
