Important from Buenos Ayres-Progres.
OF the War.

BOSTON, Feb. Is.
By an arrival to-day we have dates from Bue-
nos Ayres to December 90. Matters were rapidly
approaching crisis. Uruguay had crossed the
river Parana with a. well-appointed army of
10000 men, on his march to Buenos Ayres.
Rosas's army was encamped near Buenos Ayres,
and general disaffection prevailed in his ranks
Rosas had laid waste the country through
WHICH Uruguay would pass. One town of 10000
inhabitants had been levelled by his orders The
women We're required, with their children, to
take refuge at Buenos Ayres, and the men were
impressed into the army

and which we still think the true one, was cum
inply avoided by the great body OF our adVer-

that Protection was right, but that it could not
be promoted by voting for Scott against Pierce
The Pierce journals in Pennsylvania, Northern

if we had any voice in the matter, We should

larger and intrinsically better rates conceded
to the manufacturers by Congress, whether
prompted by the President or not. We hope

A. Oil-Cloths faced with the new Paint may
be rolled ard unrolled without danger of stick

If these claims are well founded, the general
adoption OF the new Paint would insure an
immense saving of cost and labor. A psteat

formed TO commend his discovery to general
