' . THE.WAR 121 14111AGI6AY. The Question of Peuee—,Cost of the War to linucli.-Einanelipationk • • Pao JAN - Euro, Sept. %.—The news received here of the recent successes• of the Allies in , Paraguay, and of the desperate condition to .whichLopeziaxedueed, has paused great-re-. joieinga, pot so much, however, on account of, the victories that have been gained, which, after all, furnish but little ground for ' boasting, considering how dearly they have , been purchased,.. but because the' 'people of Brazil, heartily tired of a war that they began to think was destined to end in national disaster and humiliation, while it was draining the country of - men and' : means, persuade themselves now that the long struggle is drawing to a close. Latterly, the war has, become very nnpopular, the feeling with the greatmaj . onty•of the Brazilians being, in favor of obtaining peace at any price. This question of peace is the great question of: the hour;for although Lopez has been beaten,p earn between Brazil and Paraguay has not yet been' made. -The Emperor, it appears,declines to make peace with the Provisiona Paragitayan government,regarding such 'a course as - highly irregular, and preferring to defer a settlement , of matters till a regular government-shall have been established in Paraguay,' His Ministers are in favor, however, of patching up a peace, „ and, as the Liberal opposition, taking advan tages of this disagreement between tile Empe ror and the Ministry, are becoming bolder in: their attacks, and causing serious embarrass ment to the government party, a Ministerial crisis might occur at any hour. Brazil has suffered severely , from this four years', war, having spent fully 5280,000,000 upon it, and lost ""over 150,000 men. She has added heavily to her debt in obtaining means to carry on the war, and although she has gained by it a valuable and efficient nary, it will take twenty or thirty years for her to re cover fully from the exhansting effects of this protracted struggle. All through she has bad to bear the brunt of the fight; out it is more than questionable whether, even after the free navigation of the rivers of the Platte shall have been permanently assured, she will reap a return, in commercial advantages, any thing like proportionably equal to what wil be gained in this way by - her allies of the Ar gentine Confederation and Uruguay. The new United States Minister to Brazil, the Hon. H. T. Blow, has had his first audience with the Emperor, when he presented his credentials, • accompanied, with an address appropriate to the occasion. The Emperor replied briefly but cordially expressing the hope that the friendly relations existing between Brazil and the United Stites might continue unbroken. The new, Peruvian Minister has also had an audience, _and __presented his credentials. The question of the emancipation of the slaves still ' remains in • abeyance, the only thing done. toward ameliorating the "institution ' being the pal-sing of an act by the General Assembly forbidding slave auctions. In future no private perso - ns will 11 J0Wed to dispoae-otheir-slav-es-by-pt ' sale, and judicial sales will have to be effected by written tenders. Should a Liberal Minis ter get into power, there is hope that some measure will be-adopted paving. the way for the abolition of slavery in the Umpire, in ful filment of the pledges virtually given by the Emperor not more than two years ago. BUENOS Avnes, Sept.ll.—lt appears that after all Lopez has not fled to. Bolivia, as was at first reported, but has only retreated fur ther into the fastnesses of the Sierra Aldama, where, surrounded by a devoted band of Paraguayans, he has taken up a new position, determined, it seems, to fight while he has a single cannon left, and a soldier to serve it. His army is now reduced to about 2,000 men, but these, it is said, are all tried warriors, "tieing what is known as "the President's Life Guard." They have fifteen field pieces, with a good supply of am- munition, tatt not more than six rounds each man of muAetry cartridges. For a day or twoLafter the last of the late decisive battles, theMllies vigorously followed up the retreat ing Paraguayans, but the pursuit has ceased, owing to the swampy .nature of the country through which > the. enemy • passed, ' extensive bogs and mo rasses rendering it impossible for cavalry to operate. Meanwhile, the Provisional Gov ernment at Asuncionr has 'issued a decree of outlawry against Lopez, and no,efibrt will be spared to complete the conquest; of the country, either, by driving him from the soil of Paraguay, or capturing the Dictator; for as long as he remains where he is; although on the confines of the country, a.nd powerless to turn back the tide •of ' • victory, peace cannot . regarded :as assured. Asimaion -is - receiving.. : back its long scattered .population, most of the citizens re-, turning to their homes in astate of the greatest destitution and 'wretchedness ; but, beyond the reorganizing• of ' munieipal'affairs, the Pro visional Government at - that - place is doing lit tle or nothing for, the country. The Special Commissioners of the Allied Powers are hold- • ing conferences and exchanging notes; but when and by what means a nevv Govern ment will be given tOParaguay,yve are not yet informed. ' • The energy rvvith which Lopez • has °con ducted the war, and the enthusiastic devotion of tbe Paraguayan people• to their chief, are receiving fresh illustrations from many. facts which have come to light since his late defeat. Here are a few of them. It appears that dur ing the last eight months Lopez cast more than sixty pieces of-cannon, including some rifled guns, at his arsenal. on the° heights of Aseurra, which he evacuated on the lath l'Vlien he left the place the garrison could n'ot have numbered less • than OM WHOLE (YOIi3MIM Is,ooo men and boys, armed mostly with latices land;id flint muskets. Beside these lie had ;some battalions of women, and all marched L , with him into ,the interior, taking ' the guns and war Material with them. His; remiiirdng iforces in hia present poiltion were for some ;time badly offfoyprovisions, but the latesttele sums mention ins having received .a. supply., ,of 03 000 'Oxen from a place , called A.yos, ,s 4 were driven across the oopntry women on foot. Indeed, one of the'most striking features of this war is the self-sacri- . fining ardor with which the FaraguaYall women have espoused the national cause, not only undertaking all the work of ,the field in order that the men might be at liberty to tight for their Country, but - , actually entering,„the , andiighting with the greatest bravery.

If Pere Hyacinthe comes bere expecting to ° induce any conside rable nember of Catholics, or even a single Catholic, to accept him as a leader, or to 101 l low him in his most intemperate andsilly at tacks on the authority of the Church, he will find that he has come on - a fool's errand. If he comes as a Protestant seeking . sympathy and glorification from the enemies of the Church, he-will no doubt be Welcomed, but not with much warieth or respect; for they see that he conies without any following, and has only his bare self to offer them. They al ready see that by leaving the Church he _has lost his power to serve - them, and that they have no further use for him." • An pnlion Ultramontaiie Journial on .Father. Illyneintltt. The Unite C attolica (Citratinahtane) e l •es the-following , comments on Father Hyaci tithe's letter: We have been profoundly afflicted, but not surprised, at the news that Father Hya cinthe wrote a letter on September 20th, and had it published on the following day; before • it could have reached his superior, to whom it wa% addressed. In this letter Father Hya cinthe declares: 1. That he will leave the pulpit of Notre Dame because he- cannot em- ploy. "a language perverted by dictation or mutilated by reticence." 2. That he will leave "his convent," which has • become "a prison of the soul." 3. That he protests agaiest maxims' and practices called Roman, but which are not Christian. 4: That he also 4 2 ,e k a.e.steageiaseheL.eaerilegious perversion of the Gospels trampled under foot by the phansaism of a new law." 15. He appeals to the councillor a remedy. 6. Finally, if the -council does-not-decide in the sense 'of the writings of Father .tiyacinthe, he will appeal from it to another council, "representing the Universal Church."
