THIRD EDITION
THE WAR in PARAGUAY
Official Dispatches from Rear
Admiral Godon.

WASHINGTON, June 3O.-The following is con-
tanned IN the official dispatches received from
acting Rear-Admiral Godon:-
The allied army crossed into Paraguay on the
18th of April, avoiding the pass of La Patra,
and landing some four miles below it, In a re.
gion of country rendered almost impossible by
marshes and iungles.
This movement was hailed as great success,
as their loss was trifing. On the I'd of May,
however, the Paraguayans fell upon the right
wing of the enemy and almost annihilated the
Uruguay contingent, leaving few besides Gene
raj Flores to represent one of the allied powers
on the field. The Paraguayans we're finally re.
pulsed with heavy loss in killed and wounded,
but were not at all disorganized in point Of
morale, which cannot be said of the Brazilian
troops.
The great heavy battle which is daily expected
will decide the fate of Humaita, and even of
Ascencion, the capital of Paraguay, but not the
duration of the war, for the allies by the secret
treaty are pledged not to treat with Lopez, and
he will not willingly give himself into the hands
of his enemies so long as can mainta in himself
at the head OF an army.

Passage of Sentence OF Death on the Mur-
dereT of the ROOsa Family.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer, 2Sth.
On yesterday afternoon the unhappy convict was
brought from his cell by the Sheriff INTO the court
room to receive his sentence, The courtroom was
crowded BY an anxious people to hear the tate of
him who had committed in their midst one OF the
most dIaboical murders on record. The prisoner
sat on his seat perfectly collected and dedantly
gazing and smiling around the courtroom, as
though he were invited to marriage feast. He did
not seem TO realize tnat in few mlnules his day
and date of death as an eXpiatlon for wholesale
murder would be pronounced, or II he did realize
the TACT, it seemed that he daring the flats Of
justice the dread ceremony about to be performed
As the clock toIled the hour of one samuel Coovert
was directed by the Court 10 stand up. The Judge
ado ressing him said:-
"Samuel Covert have you anything to say why
the sentence of death SHOULD not be pronounced
upon you"
Cooye1t replied, laughingly, that he had nothing
much to say, except that he was innocent of the
murder OF the Roosa family, of which he had been
col Vlcted.
The Judge then reviewed briefly the dreadful
crime for the commls ssion Oh which he stood con-
v cted and then sentenced him to be taken from
thence TO the jail OF the county and kept IN C ose
coIfnement until Friday, the Oath dav of August,
1866, when he should be taken to the ace of exc
cui 'on, and between the hours of O'Clock in the
morning and O'Clock in tue afternoon he should
be hanged by the neck until he was dead,
(Oovert received the sentence without changing
a muscle, and upon taking his seat looked round
upOu the audience and attendants OF the court and
smiled. In few minutes he was removed to the
jail where he will remain until brought out for exc
