from the seatof war in Parasuay give us late
and important news from that section The
report is confirmed that Gen. McMahon's re-
monstrance against retaliation by the execu-
ton of prisoners was the means of saving
many human lives. Lopez acknowledged the
receipt of the Generals letter, intimating that
the captured prisoners might be considered
under the protection OF the American flag, and
the difficulty was settled. Lopezs letter is
highly complimentary to Gen. McMahon, and
the allies are likewise loud in the Minister $
praise, az they have some reason to be. When
the steamer left the General was busy among
the prisoners, entering their names and seeing
that they were provided with sufficient food
