gress." From the paper on the "Causes and Conse
quences of the Paraguayan War," by Porter
C. Blisfi, we take the following brief but com
prehensive statement of the antecedents of
the parties to the late contest;
At the beginning of the year 110,
the territories now comprised in the
Argentine Kopnblio Uruguay, Para
guay, and Bolivia formed the viceroyalty of
La Plata, belonging to Spain, and adminis
tered by a colonial governmont, having its
eeat at Buenos Ayres. Brazil was, in like
manner, a colony of Portugal; governed by a
viceroy at Rio Janeiro. Between those re
spective colonies, there had been immemorial
' struggles as to boundaries, dating back to a
Pupal bull, by which Pope Alexander VI, in
the year following the discovery of America,
assumed to divide the New World between
the crowns of Spain and Portugal. After
being the cause of numerous indecisive wars,
and equally indecisive treaties, the great
question of Hunts was inherited by the em
pire of Brazil, upon its becoming indepen
dent of Portugal, in 1822, and still subsists
unsolved between that empire and nearly all
of its eight republican neighbors.
The little territory which now forms
the republic of Uruguay, o'.herwiso
known as the Banda Oriental, or eastern
shore of the river Uruguay, hus always been
the chief bone of contention. Originally
settled by the Portuguese, and claimed by
them as within their earliest limits, as fixed
by the Pope, it changed hands four times
during the last century, and was Anally as
signed to Spain by tho treaty of 1777, the
latest which was made between the rival
powers', and wbih is still considered as au
thoritative by all the Spanish-American re
publics. The northern portion of tho territory
was, however, seized by Portugal during the
short war of 1 SO 1 , and now forms part of the
nonthernmost Brazilian province, that of llio
(Irande do .Hvl.
The year 1810 brought with it, as a conse
quence of the Napoleonic wars in Spain, the
revolt of tho Spanish colonies in America,
followed by a series of efforts on the part of
Spain to recover her lost territories, which
did not terminate until the victories of
Junin tnd Ayacuch were won by Bolivar, in
1824.
The viceroyalty of La Tlata, in the mean
time, bad become disintegrated into four in
dependent States. Turaguay was the first to
secede. Under the guidance of the celebrated
Br. Franciu, she separated from her sister
provinces, and, protected by her inaccessible
position, was never invaded by Spanish
troops. Bolivia then called Upper Peru
was reoonquered by Spain in 1817, and re
mained in subjection until liberated, in 1820,
by the Venezuelau general, who, in addition
to her independence, bestowed upon her a
constitution and her present name.. The
"Eustern Shore of the Uruguay" (Banda
Oriental) remained a portion of the
Argentine Confederation until IS 17,
when it was seized by the Portu
guese, and annexed to Brazil. Iu
1822 it became the "Gis-Pktino Province'
of the new Brazilian empire. In 1825 it re
volted from Brazil, with the design of re
entering the Argentine Confederation, which'
aided in the struggle by waging a victorious
war upon the empire. The intervention of
European powers, howsver, terminated the
contest in 1828, in a manner unsatisfactory
to both belligerents, by erecting the disputed
territory into a republic, whose independence
was unwillingly guaranteed by them.
Since that date, the little republic of Uru
guay has been the perpetual field of intrigues,
promoted by her powerful neighbors, whijll
covet a territory which each considers right
fully its own. It has been a continual prey
to the dissensions of the two parties which
have alternately held sway, and which have
been alternately fomented by Brazil and the
Argentine Republic. These parties, called
Blancos and Colorados the Whites and the
Reds have never represented any
tangible difference of policy, and have
been merely the personal feuda of the
leading families. At first, both parties were
equally hostile to Brazil. The Argentiae
Dictator Rasas early became the ally of the
Blancos, and with their aid waged a nine
years' war from 1842 to 1851 against the
Colorado Government, which held possession
of Montevideo. In 18.11, the celebrated
Urquiza, the principal general of Rosas, re
volted against his muster, effected a compro
mise between the factions, and marched
against Rosas with forces augmented by the
"Uruguayans of both parties and by a strong
Brazilian detachment.
Rosas was overthrown at the battle of
Monte-Caseros in February, 1852, and fled to
England, where he has sinoe lived in quiet exile
at Southampton. The Argentine Confedera
tion was reconstructed by Urquiza, who re
mained President until 1859, when Dr. San
tiago Derqm was elected ia his place. In
1801 General Bartolome Mitre, Governor of
Buenos Ayres, headed a revolt against Derqui,
and defeated the Argentine national forces
commanded by Urquiza, at the deoisive bat
tle of Favon, September 17. It was more
than suspected that the result of the contest
was brought about by collusion between the
opposing gonerals. Be this as it may, the
government of Dr. Derqui was overthrown,
and the former "Confederation" was remod
elled as the "Argentine Republic" Geueiul
Mitre, who is at once a poet, a novelist, a
historian, and a parliamentary orator, be
came President for a term of six years, be
ginning in October, 18.02.
At the pacifioation of 1851, the Blauo
party obtained power in Montevideo, and re
tained it for three year. In 1851 Uaueral
Venancio Flores, a Colorado leader, made a
successful revolution, aided by Brazilian and
Argentine diplomacy. He became President,
but was in turn overthrown by the Blaucos iu
1856, and took refuge in Buenos Ayres. He
entered the military service of that province,
and fought at the side of Governor Mitre at
Pavon. In 1803, after seven years' absence
Jroia AJontevideo, he knaei on the ahyres o!
Uruguay with three followers, called his par
tisans to arms, and commenced a revolution
which, two years later, became successful by
the aid of Brazilian intervention. ' He Was
also aided not a little by the sympathy and
secret support of the Argentines. The revo
lution of Flores was utterly unjustifiable, as
the Blanco party, then in power, re-
resented the vast majority of the
aw-abiding "Orientals," or Uruguayans,
and a complete amnesty existed for the party
to which Flores belonged. Besides, the ad
ministration of President Berro bad been the
best which that distracted republic had ever
enjoyed. The conduct of the Brazilian and
Argentine administrations, at this crisis, fixes
a stain upon those otherwise enlightened
governments, and justly alienated from them
a portion of that sympathy which they would
otherwise have had, when they, in their turn,
1 ecame the victim s of ruthless aggression by
the tyrants of Paraguay!
The so-called Republic of Paraguay was
ruled by the famous Dr. Francis, first a con
sul, and afterwards as dictator, from 1811 till
his death in 1S40. His power, which was ab
solute and ferociously exercised, was derived,
in a great measure, from the tradition of
Jesuit rule in those Gnarani missions which
were the germ of the Paraguayan population.
After his death tho supreme power was seized
by Carlos Antonio Lopez, undr the title of
consul, which he exchanged, in lxil, for that
of president. He remainod in office till his
death in September, 102, when General
Francisco Solano Lopez succeeded to. his
place, by virtue of the last will and testiment
of his putative father, ratified by a "Con
gress" of his own exclusive selection.
I have not space to enter here upon any
detail of the personal or administrative his
tory of either of tho Lopezes. Suffice it to
say, that the government remained, in theory
and practice, as absolute as in the day of
Francia ; that Paraguay never had either con
stitution or code of laws; and that the
document sometimes called, for con
venience, the "Constitution of Paraguay,"
was merely an edict of the elder
Lopez, attributing to himself ab
solute supremacy, with "ox raordinary facul
ties," whenever he shonld deem it necessary
to assume them. This edict was duly "ap-
E roved" by the Paraguayan "Congress," a
ody in which, during his whole administra
tion, an opposition speech or vote was an un
known event, and which never took any other
action than to sanction every proposal of the
executive. I must also mention, in correc
tion of a wide-spread emir, that Carlos Anto
nio Lopez did not abolish slavery." He pro
claimed, in 141, that all children born
thereafter of slave parents shonld be
come free at tho age of twenty-five years ; so
that the earliest emancipation would only
have taken place last, year.
Francisco Solano Lopez, born in 1820, be
came general-in-chitif of the Paraguayan
army, by his father's appointment, at the ago
of eighteen; was afterwards minister of war,
and was constantly engaged in other import
ant offices until his accession. In 1S.": he
had been sent as mioisfer to England, France
and Italy, remaining in Europe abjut eigh
teen months. It was at this time that he
first conceived the idea of making Paraguay
a great military power, g as ultimately to
enlarge her limits ; au idea which thenceforth
became his rulling psshion, to which every
other consideration was of secondary import
ance. The vast stores of war material which
he accumulated, tho Paraguayan fleet of
twenty 6teamers, the arsenal, the foundries,
ice well-drilled army or 40,000 men, all bore
witness, in 1801, to the thoroughness with
which he had carried out his long-matured
project.
At that date l'araguay had not been en
gaged in actual hostilities for more than half
a century. A nominal state of war with the
Argentine dictator, Rosas, had existed in 1810,
inconsequence of his refusing to recognize
Paraguayan independence; but no blood had
been shed. The Brazilian Government had
ever been the fast friend of Paraguay from
interested motives, no doubt and had ailed
her with advice and with the gift of war
material. Unsettled boundary questions ex
isted; but the region in dispute was a dosert
to which Brazil never attached great import
ance, and the great empire showed a remark
able forbearance in the face of aggravating
advances made by Para'niav towards its occu
pation. Nothing was farther from the
thoughts either ot the Brazilian or the Argen
tine Governments thnn a war with Paraguay,
when the events of 1 804, in the Republic of
Uruguay, furnished Lopez the ostensible pre
text for what his newspaper organ called
"emerging from the chrysalis 1"
