LATER FROM THE RiO DE Id Plata.

BY the arrival at this port Of the ship Parsna Capt.
Labgton, we bave papers from Buenos Ayrss to April
%. War had not yet commenced between Urqu'sA
and Buenos Ayres, and the probabilities were thai
a.i usl hosilities would be postponed for while.
Under orders If Urquza the employees OF The Gsv.
eminent of the Confederation organized wat they
called prcnuneiamrntos in the principal towsA Tnese
were held in the 'orm Of pubic meetings, al which
pstiti ne or pronurcismentos We're signed praying
the Federal Government to reduce Buenos Ayres,
either by force or by argument. 1t vas n'ticeoble
that the people di not join in these manifestations
but the meetings were composed principally Of en-
ployees ,licers aud soldiers; and in almost every
case we,e regular drunken orgies Of tho most dis
graceful kind n. which the widest extraga sansiss
~ere indulged in. Tie only provinces in the tosns Of
ub ch these p'oDn 1cian-Rtos had b,ep signed were
Santa Fe En're Rios ard Corn. ntcs. On the other
hand the province Of Cordobar, the weslthiess a,d
mort powerful of the Confederation, had entered
strong protest against war and had ps'itioned the Gov
eminent 10 preserve peace 1t all hazards.

Lopez bad led 10 Padre PEGS that Paraguay would
not Tend Urquiza ASSISTANCE Of a0y kind. UfquiZa
considered bi is.n certain Of PEGS cooperation, bo-
cause il bs1 ben promised when Urqiizs helped W
boojwnk Mr. BcwO. and send the American squ.1fos
out # the River Plate; bat il now appears th-t like
all his other promises, Lopez made this ~thvut
the least mention Of keeping It. Lopez xss hoard 10

by the beach ut Asuncion on the 4h OF February,
"i- las gone aud shall csrry out of this COM
"try ought but my embrace, which have just givsa

Cor help, that she had tho will but no means Of aoy
kiDd with which to aid him ia war against Baenos
Ayres. Urquiza was thus left without the AID VI he
expected aits, without vessels OF var, without money,
