The news Of the murder OF General Urquzs, In the
Argentine confederation has come ike a thunder
clap in the mcst or the peace rejoicngs stin going
on here, IL appears TO presage general connagra
lion in La Plata by union Of the discontented
.rederalistsi OF the Confederation with the nsur-
rected blancos' Of the Uruguayan republic against
the law enforcing rule OF sarmicnro which threat
ems speedy annihaton OF the power or those rest
less Gaucho chleftains who. with the war cry OF
federation not unlon' tickling the .'provin-
cialr palate, jealous or the wealth and consequent
power of Buenos Ayres, cOntrive TO parcel out the
majority OF the provinces into family domains
wherein they reign supreme.
Two sons of Urquiza's--Ubaldino ana Justo-were
murdered with their father. The adherents OF Ur
| quiza had shut themselves up In Conception de
| Uruguay, ana defending themselves against
! the followers or General Jordan, who were
beseglng the town. Jordan had caused hm-
self TO be elected by the provincial assem-.
Entire Rios. However, the same assembly had de-
creed funereal honors TO Urquiza. TO erect the
niirier OF Urquza the assailants came in She uni
iorn of the Enre RIas cavalry, and so obtained
trance inside The courtyard. Urllixa defended him
self bravey, killing one and w0undilg another OF

According to the Argentine constitution the gen.
era government cannot scnd troops lniO any OF the
coniederated provinces unless on receiving requ!s
tiOn from the legal government OF the province.
However, Sarmento could not recognize legal gov
ernment based upon the murder Of a governor. ana
was resolved TO put down the rule or Jordan. Con-
sequently Sarmiento had declared all the Argentine
ports On the river Uruguay Closed, and had sent
about 1000 troops VITA artnery, 70 Conception del
Uruguay, which still held out against Jordan The
troops arriving from Paraguay had orders 20 stop at
Rosario ana enter the province of Entire Rios from
that quarter and every Effort was being made to
raise forces sufficient TO suppress Lopcs Jordan and
his supporters, IN whicl undertaking no doubt The
friends OF Urquiza Will efficiently cooperate.
On the other hand lt Is reported that General Ca
ceres o. The neighburng and sympathzing province
OF Corrlcnes had raised 5000 men and had entered
Entire RIOS with the supposed purpose OF aiding
Lopes Jordan against the central government; klG
1t was believed that even from the province Of Buc-
ncs AyTes alone Sarmiento could easily obtain sui
cienc ievtes volunteers In support or lhe Of
order crush the forces OF Jordan and Caceres Don
En,iio Mitre was to have the command oi Tie troops
sent into Entire Rios.

Paraguay stu continues an allied difficulty. The
war is over, but peace Is not made, nor can the
plenipotentiartes agree upon with whom IL should
be made whether az once with the provisional gov
ernmeut, or, hereafter, wit a Paraguayan govern
ment created IN some constitutional form, ana the
Minister O the Argentine republic had returned TO
Buenos Ayrcs 10 get instructions. IL would appear,
however that the favored course is that the Para
quay ans shall proceed TO elect constituent Con-
gress 10 form constitution subject To
tho approval OF the people, ana that
the treaty Of peace VIII be laid until the election
OF President under the constitution, during which
period Brazilian force OF 1000 men Will remain in
Paraguay, but stationed Mt Humaiia, to protect the
freedom Of the river navigation and probably pre-.
vent internal lighting or plundertng. With the ex-
ccptIOn OF guards at Conception aud San Pedro and
q small garrison at Asuncon all the Brazilian troops
IN Paraguay were at Humaita, and they are being
sent home by every opportunity. Up to the present
some 5000 TO 5000 have returned since the death OF
