X- Times.] Bio Janeiro, Monday, October 29th, 1866. —Since the repulse or the allies at Curupairy on the 22d ultimo, all has been quiet in Paraguay, excepting, however, active pre -1 arations for a second assault on that stronghold. It is to be hoped that General Mitre (if he continues in command) will be more prudent than he was last time. Analyzing all the detailed reports of that sanguinary engagement, as well as many private letters on the same subject, Bincethe departure of the last mail, lam forced to airive at the conclusion that Argentines, as well as- Brazilians, although fighting with the utmost tenacity and bravery, sacrificed themselves most ingloriously to the incapacity of the commander-in-chief. This statement of mine may seem rather severe, but I can assure your read ers theie are many highly-placed and com petent persons here who go even farther, aLd affirm that the elite of the allied army was sacrificed through Mitre’s treachery, and was merely the natural consequence of bis five hours’ conference with President Lopez. Though not entirely agreeing with the opinions of these pessimists, I still must confess that tbeir conjectures are based on a better and more thorough knowledge of the characters of such men as Mitre, Urquiza, FJores and Company, than I can possess. As if to support the affirmations and fore b( dings as to the future of these gentlemen, Gen. Flores’s withdrawal from the field of active operations and his arrival at Monte video with the remnant of his army, 400 men, is, to-day, a fact, and a fact commu nicated officially to the Emperor of Brazil. Many have been the rumors current on this subject; that Gen. Flores was expected to retire tor a time to Montevideo is true, but that he should bring his army with him nobody ever imagined. It is officially au r- uneed that he will soon return to the field,but tha incredulous Consider the triple alliance at an end, and such I believe really in be the consequence of the step taken by •be old veteran. Will the Argentines and Brazilians hold out together much louger? I am inclined to think such a supposition at ;< ast, doubtful. Immediately upon his arrival at Monte v deo, Gen. Flores despatched a speoial ti essenger, Senor Herrera Y. Obes, to the Emperor, with such an important commu nication as resulted, two days af.erward, in I I e following: Resignation of the Minister of Vt ar, recall of Gem Polydoro, and his sub stitution by the Marquis De Caxias, and ap pi ilniment of the Baron De Amazonas to the <■■ mmand of the fleet in lieu of Admiral Tumandore. What other suggestions to the Emperor Benor Herrera Y. Obez may have bien the bearer of, is not known, but their 11 suit will soon appear. Though these changes took us all by surprise, they have given general satisfaction. Will they pro i uce lhe same consequences in the'River i-.'ate regions? It Expected they will, if the Argentines, (or rather their chiefs,) are sincere in tbeir assurances of friendship and good wishes toward the alliance and its is mnoon purpose. About 400 sick and wounded have lately airived from Corrientes. Being, in my situation, in almost daily intercourse witb tl em, I have had to listen to the most heart i t-ndiDg accounts of the battle of Corapalty, at which a large number of them were pre sent. The. loss of the Allies was nearly 7.000 hors 'de combat, and not 4,028, as offi cially announced. Regimental officers have assured me that it was the most horrible sensation they ever felt, to see themselves and their men exposed to the galling fire of the Paraguayans, and almost under their walls, without knowing how or where to advance for want of orders from their chiefs. Confusion, in -short, reigned supreme, and u pell-mell retreat was, of course, the natu ral consequence. The Marquis de Caxias, one of the ablest t fficers in tne Brazilian army, left this city on the 22d inst., for Montevideo, in the French packet Carmel, but had to put back tvo days after, the steamer’s machinery having been disabled. He leftagainyester day in a Brazilian transport. Owing to his great popularity in the South, great things are expected of him. I fear, however, that besides placing his army on a better footing, and, probably, assuming the commaud-in ehief, he will not be able to do anything be fore the beginning of next year. Gen. Polydoro, who is certainly a good officer, but of rather an irascible disposi tion, found everything in suoh disorder in the allied camp that he quarreled witb all his comrades, and, as rumor has it, espe cially with the Brazilian Admiral. All these differences and want of co-opera ’ tion and accord between Generals and Ad mirals are attributed to party politics. It is sad to say it, but nevertheless true; and so it will be while partisanship, as at pre sent, is esteemed superior to patriotism. The condition, sine qua non, on which Caxias accepted the command of the Bra zilian forces was the imibediate removal of Ferraz, the Minister of War, who is now going to Europe for his health, having been made Baron de Hruguayana by the Empe ror, as a reward for his services. The next condition.it Is said, was the recall of the Brazilian Ambassador'ln the Rlv* Plate. Thishaß also been complied with. Bat, as yet, no one has been appointed instead of Minister Ootariano. It is not without reason that the people expect much from the new Commander, for he has had everything his own way. lam afraid though that in their fond hopes they have entirely lost sight of . President Lopez and his stern determination and acme ounning. As very few volunteers are to be had, re cruiting goes on but with little success, not more than five or six hundred men being sent South in a month. DUTTON. No. 914 Chestnut street. W. H.

The second National Exhibition was opened by the Emperor in person on the 19tbinst. in the building intended for the Mint. To the great apathy in which the whole country is buried the small number of articles exhibited must be attributed; seven provinces are not represented at all, and tbe rest make but an indifferent show, although the building is tastefully decorated, and its scanty contents laid out to the best advantage. Business transactions have slightly im proved in the last fortnight. Money is easy at eight per cent. A considerable amount of exchange was sold by the last French packet—over £600,000 on London at 25d., and about 2,000,000 francs on Paris at 378 reis. Tbe amount of gold in the Bank of Brazil is about $8,500,000. Coffee has been active throughout the month, and receipts from the interior have averaged about nine thousand bags a day. B. T BAGEDY Ilf PORTAGE COUNTY,OHIO. A Woman Shbt Dead toy a Young Man- Escape ol tbe Harderer. On Monday morning last a terrible mur der was committed at Mogadore village, Portage county, Ohio, the particulars of which we obtain from the Portage county Democrat; About ten o’clock on the fatal morning, a yonng man of less than twenty years entered the house of William A. Mas son, when no one but Mrs. Masson and a lad of scarce six years were its occupants, and with a navy revolver, coolly and deli berately shot down and murdered the wife. and mother, making two false shots, the third doing its fatal mission. As the lidentity of the murderer there is no shadow of doubt.: Wilson Shan non Roof, was seen by four witnesses, about the hour.indicated, going in the direction of Masson’s bouse, By one witness he was seen to enter the premises of Masson, and rapidly and coofly approach the house. Wilh a heart charged with premeditated and awful murder, he entered the door of the kitchen and found his victim bending over her wash tub and her fair haired boy playing by her side. The poor woman no ticing the ungracious intrusion,and appalled at the dick of the pistol shrank with fear and horrorinto acorner of the room, and there, at the mercy of the determined nmrderer, helpless and alone, she faced a bloody death. Firing one shot, which missed its victim, but buried itself in the panel beneath the window, with a merciless perseverance another shot from the terrible v> eapon crashed through the window, shat tering its panes, and the third did its mur derous bidding, entering the person of the Roman upon the right Bide between the third and fourth ribs, passing in a trans verse direction, pircing the heart and leav n g the body through the sixth rib on the ■ett side. The victim of this terrible en counter, now released from the menace of i be murderer, struggled to the door, uttered ti shriek, tottered a few paces and fell, bleeding, into the embrace of death. This last act in the tragedy had witnesses who hastened to the house where the fatal scene had been enacted, too late for augnt but obsequies to the dead and tenderneiss to the living and bereaved. . Seeing that his fiendish work was done, the murderer sprang through a rear door, and swiftly hurried himself behind the out buildings and a hill that intervened to e.iver his flight. Passing on three-fourths' of a mile, he met an acquaintance to whom he said he had committed a murder .in the n wn. Again, a little farther on, he met an intimate acquaintance to whom he said he bad shot Mrs. Musson. Thus, as before said, is the identity of the murderer fixed beyond the shadow of a doubt. The motive of the murder was, probably, no desire for vengeance upon Mrs. Musson for any thing done toward young R x>f. As little or nothirig touobiDgtnis matter has be come a subject of proof.it would possibly be premature to make further allusion to it. The testimony of Mrs. Roof shows that there was an iil-feeiing between the families of the deceased and the murderer, on the part of tbe latter at least.and there the matter of the motive for the crime must rest until further developed by testimony. Mrs. Musson was about thirty-five years old, possessed much refinement of character, and was the exemplication of many of tbe graces and tbe purity of true womanhood. ;-be was universally esteemed and beloved tiy these who knew her. Her traglo death is the cause of much sorrow in the commu nity. Sheriff Jennings offers a reward of $5OO for the arrest of the murderer. He has a light complexion, light gray eyes, light hair, cut short. Five feet eight or nine inches high, weight about one hun dred and fifty pounds, smooth face, promi nent chiD, .good and large teeth, mouth large—walks very straight and with a pe culiar gait. Had on when last seen a dark blue sack coat, light pants and vest slouched hat. Is a potter by trade and his finger pails are worn short and thin. Had a scar on the forehead over the right eye, about half an inch long, oval shape—also has sourvy marks on the inside of one shin. POLITICAL. Ex-Postmasteb Dennison on the Srru tion. — The following is a letter just received by a prominent official from ex-Postmaster- General Dennison on the political situation: Miami, Ohio, Nov. 23. —1 have some anxi ety in regard to the temper of our friends in Congress in respect to the President, but hope it will be of a dignified and moderate nature, as displayed in word and act. lam wholly opposed to all impeachment move ments, unless the President has been doing, or shall do something that will make it im perative upon Congress to vindicate its honor or preserve the peace of the country. As to his policy the peoDle have pronounced their veraict upon it, and Congress may well leave it, only carrying out by proper legislation the will of the peo ple as expressed in that verdict. I Bhali be glad to see an improvement in the temper of i be President, and will hail with great satis faction co-operation with Congress in securing the adoption of the amendment by the Southern States: I have really only kind personal feelings towards the Presi dent, and will be sincerely gratified to see him cut loose from the Democratic party, and unite his fortunes with the Republicans. I wantto see the Union permanently and completely restored upon the basis of the amendment. If the Southern States per sist in their opposition, and reject that wholesdtne measure, I. will be prepared, with my political friends, to compel a restoration upon such terms as will give permanent peace and security to the nation, however opposed the ruling classes of the South may be. We caanot af foid to have another war, if positive mea sures can avert it We must prevent, under any ciroumstances, this old leaven of the rebellion to resume its sway in national egislation. I confess to not comprehending the President What he hopes to accom plish to give historical eminence to his ad ministration, I cannot conceive. Without a party, in or out of Congress, except so far as he may have courted the Democratic, which is powerless to produce results, what great measure or series of measdres can he hope to accomplish ? If he hopes to aohieve anything of permanent value, including the Mexican business, he will be disappointed. The country is giving little heed to our foreign concerns. All of its thoughts are directed to home matters, which Congress controls, and will absolutely control until March 4,‘ 1869, or the close of the Presiden tial term. If the Southern States shall, in the meantime, be fully jtestored to the Union, and their representatives admitted to Congress, that body will have all the glory, as such results oan only be with its consent and upon its terms. It really seems as if the President was steering the ship of state without rudder or compass, and with out any definite port for its final haven. Nor is it possible tor it to be otherwise. His very Cabinet organization requires it. T ROCKHILL & WILSON FINE OLOTHING HOUSE, Ceaehmen’s Coats. Coachmen’s Coats. HUNTING COATS. HUNTING OOATB. doubt whether he has the hearty sym pathy, or at least the concurrence, of one thiid of bis Cabinet. Nor can he improve bis condition by any change. If he then hurries bodily into the arms of the Demo cratic party, and calls members of that party into his Cabinet, it. will compel the withdrawal of more or less of the remaining members in a very short time, while he will secure little more sympathy from the Demo cratic members. The truth is that the De mocratic party do not intend to be swallowed up by the President. It will preserve its organization for the future, however dis tant, and have nothing to do, with tbe Pre sident except so far'as he may aid in that preservation. If he hesitate to comply with its wishes it will cut aloof from him inconti nently and mercilessly. I would be glad to see tbe President repair his mistakes ere the close of his administration. .. A Man in a Million.—Mr. Beecher related the following incident in one of his sermons: “Not long ago a gentleman who was engaged in the oil business had made ’some twelve or fifteen thousand dollars, and he concluded that he had made enough—extraordinary as it may seem —and that be' would wind up his aflairs and come home. Ido not believe one of you would have done it! Fifteen thou sand dollars! Why, that is just enough to bait the trap of mammon. Well, he wound up his affairs, and was on the point of leaving, when? he was met by a young man of his acquaintance (I be lieve they both reside iuNew York),who bad invested six thousand dollars, all he had, in an experimental well, and had been boriDg and boring until he had given out in discouragement. And com ing to this man, he said, ‘I shall lose six thousand dollars if I am obliged to give up my interest in that well,’and begged him to take it off his hands. ‘I am sell ing out,and nottakingon,’ says the man. But the young man plead with him,and out of personal kindness he said, ‘Very well, I will take it.’ “In two days they struck a vein in this \vell,and it was an immensely fruit ful! well, and he sold his share for two hundred thousand dollars. The young man was present when the check was drawn on. New York for the amount, aud he felt like death and mourned, and said ‘lt is always my luck; I am always i a little too late. And the man said, ‘You may take ten thousand of it if you wants’ The young man thought he was jesting, but he assured him that he was not,and said, ‘I will make it twenty thousand if it will do you any good. Or,’ said he, ‘I will make it fifty thou sand.’ ‘Well,’ said he, ‘take the whole of it, Ido not want. Give me the six thousand, and you may have the advan tage of the good luck.’ And so he gave the young man the advantage of the two hundred thousand. All of you that would have ddue that may rise up.” Curious Behavior of a Portland Girl. —A beautiful young lady of Port" land (“exposed” in a letterto the Boston Herald), frequently, during the past > ear, has been in the habit of getting herself up as an aged man, and coming to town on the cars. In her disguise she wouldstroll about the city to her heart’s content, and return home to tell the few friends in the secret of the fun she had enjoyed. If spoken to, she feigned deafness. The venerable form had become quite familiar in the streets of Portland; but none dreamed that be neath those gray hairs nestled soft auburn ringlets; that beneath those green goggles sparkled a pair of roguish eyes. But the romantic young heroine cume to grief. Protracting her strolls too long the other day, the train was leaviDg the station just as she limped into the depot. A smart run enabled the foolish girl to throw herself upon the rear platform, but just as she did so, away went hat, wig and goggles. Two gentlemen on the rear platform were considerably astonished, but the young lady had sufficient presence of mind to explain in a few frightened sentences the position of affairs,and it being nightfall, the gentlemen, who proved to be the genuine article, got the girl to her home without further publicity. An Abused Trust.— Judge Bryan Mul ianpby, of St. Louis, Missouri, died about fifteen years ago. His will contained the following clause: “One equal undivided third of all my property, real, personal and mixed, I leave to the city of St. Louis, State of Missouri, in trust, to be and constitute a fund to furnish relief to all poor emigrants and travelers coming to St. Louis, on their way, bona fide, to settle in the West.” By this clause the city came into tbe possession of a property valued at something more shut $500,000. In the last report of the com missioners of this fund.it is estimated at 8750,000, of which about $400,000 Is in real .-slate; But unless the St. Lonis papers are in error, the “poor emigrants and travelers” have not received a pennyworth of benefit isyetfrom this generous benefaction. River Convention.— ln view or the lompletipn of the survey of the Mississippi Rapids by Gen. Wilßon, and his probable .ecommendation of the construction of a canal around them, as being the best means of improving the navigation of the Missis -ippi, the Merchants’ Exchange of St. Louis bas adopted a series of resolutions calling 41) tbe citizens of the States bordering on 'he Mississippi River, who are interested in tbe river commerce, to meet in convention iti that city in January next, to take steps ’ o bring the matter speedily before Congress, The resolution also provides for a commit tee of merchants to wait on General Wilson and represent to him: the advantages of a canal over all other improvements. Singular Arrest. — A tailor called Wimmer was recently found murdered near Vienna, and bis murderer, a hautboy player in the orchestra of the Harmonic Theatre, was arrested on Sunday night. A singular circumstance connected with this orime was the manner in which Marcher was arrested. On Sunday night he was in his place in the orchestra aB usual, and played the muslo as signed him diligently. Meanwhile the police, who were upon his track, arrived at the theatre, and not wishing to makes public scandal and interrupt the perfor mance to boot, they placed officers at the different outlets, ana when Marcher issued from the orchestra after the last piece of muslo had come to an end, he was received by a commissary and . four soldiers, who conveyed him to the Bureau do Police, where he confessed his crime. .
