Fiam C;ommaitder A.J. ICourietly's work on
_ 4 4,a Plata, Brazil and Para,guar • dnring
"Present War," just issued •by Stanford, Lon
don, we ,extract a landscape or two. Capt. Ken
nedy had been sent up the Parana river,' in a
gunboat
. -of, light draft, for the pirpoSe of
'protecting British interests in the Paraguayan
* war, when he met - With the following inci
dent: • - , •
A SQUALL; 011 Mt PARANA. RIVER
I wasjust going to make an effort myself,
and had been working away with a wet towel
to clear off the thick of the buzzing multitude,
when the quartermaster of the watch came
Over to me (I had a cot slung on deck), and
*Ltd bethought a squall was . coming on,.as he,
beark a strange rustling of trees down . the
river. I looked out the' night was perfectly
ralm,and not a cloud to be seen,but I distinctly
heard the rustling in the woods some distance
down the river. I knew this must be caused
by wind, so at I once ordered the men to be
:':.turned out, to lash up, their hammocks and
the awnings. The ship was quite safe as
regarded dragging her anchor,
for we were in
fa little bay, with high ground round us. But
;a knew these Pamperos were accompanied
;with heavy rain, and whirlwinds sometimes
trtbist any canvas exposed in a moment, so
'Y; 4 4ovanted to get the awnings and hammocks
wn out of the way. The rustling was now
hening into a dull roar, and ,clouds began
show over the trees, but still not a breath of
•
AIM . where we were. The ' mosquitoes
IRA all Vanished as if by magic, and the
dogs on shore were bowling dismally.
We were working away like mad to get our
;bedding down and awnings furled, when a
llkrk mass of cloud suddenly covered the
sbeavens like a curtain, and in an instant wind,
rain, thunder and lightning, burst on us in a
mass, beating everybody down on the deck.
Bands were by the anchors, and the quarter
master crouching down at the gangway with
the lead. But I felt tolerably sure that all was
safe ; for as the Fampero blows up the river,
and the current rims down with increased
rapidity while it lasts, froui the rain filling the
river," orie-:-lientralizeS the : effect of the
other. The wind blew ;so furimisly
that we were covered in a sheet of foam
which, with the rain, made it impossible to
:see what was going'on amongst the Brazilian
ships, but we noticed One flash of lightning fall
where the. centre df.them „ought to 1)0, and the
' next morning saW aCorvette with her main
topmast shattered at the masthead, having been
struck by the electric fluid.. The heaviest part
of the storm lasted about•an hour, and during,
that time the lightningwas awfully close; but.
I happy to say we escaped damage. After
the centre had passed on up the river the wind
'.settled down to a strong gale from S. W:,which
lasted till about 3:1"..51: next day ; after which
Cleared off tO h brantifiil evoing—the air
most pleasantly fresh and cool after the blow.
.At Corrientes Captain Kennedy and his
friends witneSsed the Guacho method of
HORSE-TAMING.
• A strong,fiery-loOking animal was selected,
and the dormador entered the corral, several
gauchos closing the entrance to prevent the
horses darting out. The dormador, now walk
ing up to the mass of animalslauddled up in a
corner of the corral waved his lasso- round his
bead. The horses dashed off, at run speed for
the entrance ; here they were turnedby , the at
tendant gauchos, and continued their-career
round the corral. - They galloped round tw.le,
their wild eyes and waving manes giving great
interest to the scene; at last the dormador,•
whirling the lassO lightly round, threw it over
the head of the selected horse, at the same time
sinking down smartly on his left knee, and
holding the lasso close down With both hands.
The horse no sooner felt the lasso on its neck
than it gave a bound in the air, and dashed off
with a force sufficient to break a cable ; the
dormador, sliding and. crouching along the
ground, played him with admirable skill, and
detaching him from the other animals, in a
very short time brought him into the centre of
the corral, plunging and rearing, but with his
tether much shortened. Another gaucho now
appeared on the scene with his lasso, which he
cleverly threw on the ground under the horse's
fore-feet, as he was plunging, and by an upward
jerk tightened round tits legs. At the same instant
the donnador let his lasso run out freely, which
the horse feeli ng,imined lately dashed off again at
full speed; but the leg-lasso brought the poor .
beast to the ground with 3 shock sufficient, one
would have thought,to have broken every bone in
his body. It did stun him completely, for Ihe
animal lay perfectly motionless, and there was
no need for the gaucho to run up and sit on its
bead. However, he did so, while the dorma
dor hobbled its off fore and hind legs together.
It was now kicked and punched until con
sciousness was restored, and the poor beast,
after some convulsive plunges got on its legs
again; two more gauchos now came and partly
led and partly dragged the animal to a post out
side the corral,where he was saddled and bridled;
This operatkin caused a violent struggle ;
the horse, now regaining his strength, plunged,
kicked and bit with all his might; but the
gauchos knew their work, and appeared per
fectly fearless, getting out of the way of a kick
or bite as if by intuition. The dormador now,
fastening a handkerchief tightly round his head,
watching his opportunity, jumped into the sad
dle, and signed to the men to throw off the
leg-lasso. This they did, and the horse, feel
ing the weight on his back and his legs free,
jumped straight oil the ground, and then com
menced to buck, plunge and dash out,in a way.
that made one's back ache to look at. However,
the donnador stuck on, and a gaucho, coining
up behind, with a long cutting-whip, adminis
tered such a lash on the horse's quarter, that,
with a snort like a scream, be started off at
full speed, the mounted gauchos on each side
keeping him straight. The country was open
and level 14 miles, so away they went, the
unbroken horse occasionally stopping to buck
and kick, but each time his attacks became
fainter, until at last he was ridden up to us
quite exhausted, eyes bloodshot, covered with
foam and blood, and looking perfectly be
wildered. The dormador dismounted, and
turned him over to the gauchos on foot, who
unsaddled him, and tied him up to a post.
Poor beast'. lie looked as much broken down
as broken in."

Great complaint has heretofore 'been made
chat a very extensive system of smuggling has
been'earrleiCon from the . country south of the
R 1 Grande, known as the Zonaleba grant,
This is a belt of country granted by Mexico to
the people of that locality , for loyalty and de
votion to. the government, and within it all
Imported goods are admitted free of duty. It
is six miles in width and nearly fourteen hun
dred mileS in length: Towns and villages that
formerly existed on the American side of the
river have been depopulated, and the former
residents have taken up their permanent abode
on the Mexican side. No oppressive tariffs or
revenue laws are imposed upon their trade
and manufachues, and all nature flourishes
there:
has been the custom of the smugglers to
land their goods within this free belt, shiptherd
yip the river past Brownsville, and throw them
within the United - States lines at some point - '
along the Rio Grande. In order to stop this, it
was proposed by the Commissioners of .Cus,
toms that cargoes of all vessels passing Browns
ville, destined to Mexican ports of the Rio
Grande, be examined and compared with the
Manifests, and, if found correct, a certificate
transmitted from the collector at Brownsville
to the collector from Whence the shipment was
made ; and that no export bond given for goods
shipped to Brownsville or any place on the Rio
Grande be canceled except upon the certificate
of the collector at Brownsville that the goods
were examined and found to agree with the
manifest, in addition to the certificate now
required from the consul at the Mexican ports
'that the goods have been actually landed. It
was found before its application that this plan
was entirely impracticable; that it would not
result in placing any additional check upon
smuggling from the Mexican side. Various
other plans lately tried have failed % and the
only check placed upon the business of late has
been the result of perfectly natural causes, viz. :
trade has revived to some extent in Mexico,
and the would-be smugglers got a better price
in gold for their silk and other valuable goods
in the interior of Mexico, after paying the
Mexican tariff, than they can in currency in the
United States, and incur no risk. A bill will
be introduced in Congress asking that body to
inquire into and endeavor to effect some ar
rangement with Mexico whereby the difficulty'
—which all arises from the fact that the free
strip above mentioned borders on our lines—
may be obviated, and smuggling be made a
difficult instead of, as nosy, an easy matter.
Znpress Riding on the Plains.
,
-A correspondent of the Chicago Tribune tie-.
scribes hiS early expeikeices on the plains of
the Far West, and gives this interesting re
miniscence:
4 ' In those days there were no mail coaches
on the Plains, and the Pony Express carried
the mail matter.. The stations were ten or
twelve miles apart, and the horses were
changed at every station. fly route extended
from the ranch of my late employer to Big
Sandy River, a .distance of twenty miles. 4.
was riding on the route at the time of Abra
ham Lincoln's first election. There was great
rivalry between the Pony Express and the
Overland Stage Company, which ran its
Coaches over the same route, and a wager had
been made by the stage' company that it would
tirst convey the news of the election to. Denver.
We had been instructed for weeks before that
when the news came up we must ride for life,
and not allow the stages to get ahead of us.
" I rode a large black horse named ' Black
Bob,' who was famous not only for his speed,
but for having killed one rider and broken the
leg of another, whose pla - ce I then held.
" The day when the election news came I
had Eob all ready, and, mounting in hot haste, .
`r de at a furious pace to Little Sandy; where
th)3,groom was ordered to have another horse
saddled for me.. The groom was drunk, and
thinking t beneath the dignity of an express
rider to saddle his own horse, I determined to
ride 'Bob to m the next station. I reached the
station ahead of time and turned Bob over to
the groom, who 'd him into the Stable-yard,
where. he staggere about a little and'then fell
dead—poor Bob ! \felt sorry to see 'him
lying stiff and cold, for he was the pride of the
prairies. But I had the salisfaction of knowing
the election news was off at' least fifty miles
ahead of the stages, and the Pony Express was
sure to win the bet.
"With the death of Black Bob exPress-riding
lost all its charm for me, and I deter Mined to
give it up. I waited at the ranche until, the
agent came up, drew my back pay, and, 'bid
ding good-bye -to my friends,' set out for thee.

Fort*-Firat. Congress... Second Soealon.
In the United States Senate yesterday after
noon Mr. Schurz introduced a bill to reform
the civil service of the United States, wind.'
was referred to the ComMitee on Retrench
ment. The bill provides for a board to ex
amine candidates for office, with a view solely
to their fitness to discharge its duties. The
appointee is also to undergo a year's proba
tion, but he may be removed before expiration
of the year. The bill distinguishes in the
cid] service two classes of offe!ials : Those ap
ponted by the I'resident, by and with the ad
%lei and consent of the Senate,and those who,
as inferior officers, work under dime-
Aim of the former class. It
furtter provides that, all officers already
in tie service upon the creation of the board,
except the class covered by Mr. Jenckes' bill,
slid bold office for the term of five years from
tle date of their commissions. But the Presi
dedial appointments made afterwards, in pur
suance
of the bill,shall be for the term of
theepears ; and no removal in the forni'er
ehis shall take place except upon trial and de
temination of the'ease by the board; but any
li:efficient officer among these may be removed
.11 the board, and the vacancy thus created
shall be filled, not for the unexpired term, but
fa the full term of five years. Mr. Trumbull,
fnm the Committee on the Judiciary, reported
at a substitute for the various pro
psitions before them, a joint resolu
tim declaring the State of Virginia en
tiled to a representation in Congress. Mr.
lomeroy introduced a bill to Charter an
Anericau and Holland Ocean Cable Company,
cud providing for direel, telegraphic communi
cation betleen Washington, New York', Rol
and, and Europe generally, under a concession
granted by the King of Holland to William
osnell Jewett. Referred to the Committee
3n Foreign Relations. Mr. Sumner offered a
resolution, which was agreed to, requesting the
President to communicate to the Senate, if
compatible with the public interests, copies of
any correspondence between the United States
and Great Britain concerning questions pending
between the two countries since the rejection
of the claims convention by the Senate. Au
Executive session was then held.
The House of Representatives refused to
suspend the rules to allow the introduction of
a resolution declaring that Virginia is entitled
to representation„ in Congress. After much
iIiSCUSSIOD, a resolution providing that the bill
to promote the reconstruction of the State of
Georgia shall be considered, and that the vote
shall be taken to-day, was adopted. The bill
was then read. - Mr. Beck offered amendments
requiring the day fixed for the meeting of the
Legislature to be not less than thirty nor more
than sixty days from the date of the Governor's
proclamation providing for elections to fill va
cancies in the Logislature, inserting the word
" voluntarily" in the oath declaring that the
person taking it had not been engaged in re
bellion, Lte. Mr. •Butler opposed the amend
pent. Mr. Beck argued'at great length against
the bill. . ln support of the bill remarks were
made by Messrs. Winans, Fitch, Stevenson and
Coburn, and against it by Messrs. Eldridge,
Woodward. Morgan, Axtell and Briggs. Ad
