Minister Washburne and the Ar
EentiDe Government.
A Times Rio Japeiro correspondent says: A Bue-
nos AyTes paper, in one of its late numbers says
WashburLe, the American Ambassador TO Para
quay, and the Argentine Government. II seems
that MIR. Washburne has again returned to BuenOs
Ayres from COrTentes, having been denied permis-
sion to pass into Paraguay. The same paper says
that he insist upon gOing threatening to force his
passage up with the American vessels now in these
waters. IL is very doubtful whether Mr.. Wash
burne has any instructions from the American Gov
eminent authorizing him TO commit any overt act of
hostility against the allies in Paraguay river. 1t is
hoped that this difference will be settled to the
tire satisfaction Of the Governments concerned.
