WASHINGTON, July 30.-Thaddeus
Stevens has written letter which has
been made public, showing that the
question as to what 20s should be paid
il, gold or paper, has been wisely settled
by the passage of the funding bill,
which action he claims sustains his po-
sition that the law wauthoriZingt the issue
of those bonds provided that they
should be paid in paper. He urges
those holding 5.20S TO exchange them
for new bonds.
The Postmaster General has spostpon-

The Senate before adjourning ratified
the treaties with the Pottawatomies,

In consequence of the act of Congress

EUROPE.

LONDON, July 3O.-Further advices
from Rio Janeiro announce the fall OF
the Paraguayan fortress Huma1ta.
The Standard says the proposed
American bonds to replace the sos are
no better than the latter, as any new
Congress may alter their value by new
laws.
LONDON, July SO.-The Standard
commenting on the funding bill, says
the proposition to replace the 5:20s
with new bonds bearing lower rate of
interest, the principal and interest to
be paid in gold, will make the latter no
more acceptable to the business COM
munity than the former, as future
Congress may alter the value by en-
acting new laws on the subject.
DUBLIN, July 30.-Mr. Train appear
ed in public before the Court of Bank
ruptcy to-day. AS his papers were not
presented in the proper form the Court
refused to hear the case.
LONDON, July 30.-South American
mails furnish more news from the war
on the Parana. Dispatches had reach
ed Rio from Marquis De Caxias, COM
mander of the allied armies, announ-
cling that the fortress Of Humaita had
fallen into the hands of the allies. No
particulars of the last days of the siege
were given. nor were the terms OF the
surrender known. The dispute which
had arisen between Gen. De Caxias and
Mr.. Washburne, American Minister to
Paraguay, remained unsettled. 1t
originated in an attempt on the part OF
the Marquis to prevent the United
States steamer Wasp, with the Amer1-
can Minister on board, from proceed
ing up the Parana river. Mr.. Webb,
Ambassador of the United States at
Rio, has demonstrated with the Brazil
ian Government against this interfer-
ence with the movements of the minis
ter to Paraguay, and will demand his
passports il the steamer Wasp Is again
detained by the commander OF the
allied forces.
The following report has been re-
ceived from Paraguayau sources: The
allies made reconnaissance in force in
the direction of the Qualifications on the
Tebienary river. The detachment, con-
sisting of six hundred men, was met
by the Paraguayan forces on the Ia
barre river, and severe engagement
followed which ended in the defeat
and route of the allies with heavy loss
In prisoners, horses, arms and muni-
tions.
Accounts from the same quarter rep
resent that the position OF the Para
Ruayaus at Humaita was as strong as
ever, and that there were no prospects
of its abandonment. The new and ex-
tensive fortitications on the Tebiena ry
river had been repaired and we'll pro-
vistoned and garrisoued. The river
has been etfectually closed at that point
by chains and other distractions.
The above accounts, coming from
behind the Paraguayan lines, are me-
cessarily of earlier date than the news
from Rio Janeiro. Tu
No intimation is given that General
Lopez has sued for peace.

baltimore live Stock market.
Special to DAILY Insemgsnesr.
BALTIMORE. July sO-Evening.

The offerings of cattle to-day amount
to about $50 head. Owing TO the deten-
ton OF stock trains and impediments
to the track in various avenues leading
to the city, caused by the late freshet,
and the excitement necessarily occa-
stoned, it IS difficult to ascertain the
exact condition of the market. but it is
generally conceded that up to this
time there is but little change from last
week, though sales Yesterday were d
cents per 100 lbs higher from the causes
above enumerated.
SHEEP.
Tho arrivals of sheep have been very
meagre. The few arrivals have been
sold readily at 4a5k cents per ID.
SWINE.
Only few hogs have arrived during
the week up to this morning, and we
can only approximate the state of the
market. The sales so far, however,
indicate an advance of about 75 cents
per 100 ms, which, of course, is only
temporary; quotations this morning
range at 1Sa141z cents per ID.
