The following is an extract Of a letter from an
ofhcer in President Oribe's army, dated
CERRITo, December 81, 1874.
Since writing you on the 23d little nothing has
CURED to communicate excepting the heavy weather
that has been experienced here since the 25h On that
day Admiral Genfe arrived with the corvette and brig
from Buenos Ayres. The Union also returned on the
27th No steps have been taken, except in diplomatic
Of the contracted by the Rverista Govern
menf The Brazilian Charge dAfaires still remains
Admiral Brown returned off Monsevideo on the Doth
having relinquhed the pursuit of the pratcal boats
the small craft understood to have been dispatched from
your port.
You probably better acquainted than am with the
never ceasng ministerial changes in Monevdeo Flores
has ibeen dismissed by Vazques from the command
of the garrison, and Henrque Martinez once more
brought TO act on the political stage though without
great deal OF opposition from certain class Of the mill
iary Pacheco Obess successor has dwndled down
into Commander of the Cerro fortress and ii is said that
he has asked for his passport in order to proceed to Rio
Grande Gabriel Percy ra appears to have been visit
to him, with view to reconcile him hs di grace but
with what efftct know not"
The British Packet says that in consequence Of
the late piratlcal acts Of the Corriento rebels, Of
an arrangement subsequently entered into between
them and the Paraguayans, by which the latter, in
consideration OF being allowed exclusively to enjoy
the carrying trade, have agreed to submit to the
right of search on the part of the former the go.
nj Aurc has yeou % do
ted the Sth INST, inteldicting all intercourse with
those provinces, until the re-eslabshment OF le-
gal order in Corrientes.
Henrique Martinez, after having held the COM
mand of the garrison for tour or five days, has
yielded TO the "pressure from without" and re-
signed. Old Bauza, the Minister of war, has sue.
ceeded him in that post. This Bauza was, on the
breaking out OF Lavale's revolution in this coun-
try, Captain OF the port OF Las Conchas, and af-
fords in his person rather curious exemplication
Of the sportiveness of fortune. Several command
ers and officers Of the French Legionists have at
last abandoned the forlorn cause Of the Riverisas,
and taken refuge on board the French squadron.
A decree dated 18th ult., states that from the lst
inst, national vessels trading to foreign ports shall
pay three dollars per ton, and foreign vessels four
dollars, excepting those who by treaty are placed
upon the same footing as national vessels. Foreign
vessels shall pay for the health visit twenty-five
dollars, and for the certificate an equal snm. Fo.
reign vessels which have no Consul shall pay forty
dollars. These dues shall be paid one half at the
entry OF the vessel and half at her departure
National and foreign vessels which do not receive
carge shall pay one half OF the dues in question.
Pratical boats have made their appearance in
the Parana. We have already news of the cap.
ture of one, and are in hourly expectation of the
intelligence OF the taking of the rest as every mea-
sure had been taken in order to ensure this re-
suit. e#
FROM CAMPEAcHY. BY the schooner Ventura,
we received, night before last, papers from Meri-
do to the 22d ult They contain intelligence which
could interest our readers being occupied with merely
local matters and the details Of the late revolution in
Mexico.
The Courier OF last evening, in publishing the news
from Campeachy, has the following:
The U. sloop Of war Falmouth had arrived at Sssl
In two days from Vera Cruz, bringing intelligence that
