THE PARAGUAY EXPEDITION.

Paraguay affairs have claimed more or less
OF the public attention since the adjournment
Of Congress, and the name Of Captain fhos.
]. Page. has generally been associated with
them as the probable commanding officer Of
the expedition now in preparation for La
Plata. 1t was therefore with some surprise
tina, his many friends learned that Commo-
dore Shubrck had been assigned to the com
mand Of the Brazil squadron, and that the
Paraguay fleet would form part Of it, We
are clad to know, however, that the most
cordial feelings exist between the distin.
gnished officer selected as flag officer OF the
squadron and Captain Page, who will occu-
py the responsible post Of feet captain, and
that the position assigned each Of them by
the Department is entirely agreeable to both.
1t has been deemed sound policy to greatly
augment the naval force to be sent upon this
expedition, that the demonstration may be
as imposing as possible; and, that nothing
may be wanting to produce the desired moral
effect by the appearance Of the expedition IN
that part Of South America, il has been
deemed advisable to place il under the COM
mand Of the senior officer Of the nayy--a man
who unites to his high position all the per-
sonal qualifications essential for such ser.
vice. Capt. Page is assigned TO the post oil
flag captain by the selection Of the Secretary
Of The Navy, and at the expressed desire Of
Commodore Shubrck. Nothing could fur
nish better evidence Of the high appreciation
in which his services are held BY these dis
tinguished gentlemen. Union. },

to keep back and to shut the window, which
she did. In few minutes, indeed, a ladder
was run up and Policeman George Carr, a
noble fellow and brave officer, yentured up
the ladder and into the room, at the risk of
his life. Water was freely PLAYED on. and
he soon appeared bearing Mrs. Duncan. As
she was safely brought down the pent up
feelings Of the crowd burst into loud cheers
and clapping Of hands. George ventured in
again and brought out child which was
passed down. A third time he entered and
brought out the remaining child. Each time
he appeared with his precious human freight
the crowd gave him hearty cheers. Mrs.
Duncan and the children were all nearly sui-
located. Carr himself was seriously affected,
and had to be conveyed to drug store,
who're every thing possible was done for his
relief

system of fighting Indians was to destroy
