Brazi, and the Paraguay War.

Our South American advices entirely corro-
borate our arguments for the past two months
with reference to the troubles which have oc-
quay. The fact that after the battle and
evacuation of Villeta our Minister (McMahon)
had to ride but five or six miles to visit the
encampment of Lopez shows that the victory
over which the allies are making SO much ado
amounts to nothing, aud, as we have heretofore
stated, simply indicates that the Paraguayans
have retired their forces from the river bank
to get out of reach Of the iron-clads.
Bliss and Masterman, who were taken from
the side of our late Minister as he was leaving
the country, were surrendered on demand.
Not hair of their revolutionary heads has
been troubled. The Portuguese Consul,
whose terrible death we were requested to
lament by the enemies of Paraguay, is found
In most agreeable mood and enjoying such
health as the magnificent climate of Paraguay
confers. The murdered French Consul re-
turns down the Plata river to Montevideo ''and
reports to the Admiral of the French feet that
he was at no time during his stay in Paraguay
dsquieted on account of his personal safety"
Thus all the long accounts which were swal-
lowed by nearly the whole press of the United
States about the horrible murders committed
by Lopez and his persecution of foreign repre-
sentatives prove, as we have constantly main
tanned, to be false. 1t is, and was, ridiculous
to suppose that Para quay, having taken upon
her shoulders the defence Of the republican
integrity of Eastern South America, could wish
in any way to insult either of the great
Powers of the world and bring on additional
warlike troubles. The allies, and especially
Brazil, constantly misrepresent the condition
of their enemy. We venture to assert that
Brazil was never weaker and Paraguay never
stronger as regards warlike endurance than
to-day. We long ago had news that it was
the intention Of Lopez to evacuate villeta.
The reported victory of the allies at that point
is IKE their honors won at Misunderstanding
possession when the enemy chose to abandon
1t for the purpose of taking up stronger posi-
tlQn, The war now just commences, SO far
as concerns the Brazilians conquering the
country. They have been three years, with
sixteen iron-clads and sixty thousand men,
driving the Paraguayans from the river bank.
Their offensive force now numbers about
thirty thousand men for duty. The sixteen
iron -clads are eliminated from the problem for
inland work. 1t is pertinent to ask what the
empire expects to do in this stage Of the prob
lem. We advise Brazil to make peace, that
she may prepare for some changes in the
Plata Valley which will force her to abandon
her southwestern ideas of domination, or pre-
pare for a struggle with the Argentine Re
public.
