to the twenty-tint of April, and shed
much light upon aiTairs in that quarter.
Lopez still maintains a warlike attitude,
and expresses a determination to the ut
termost. Several inclosureat from Lopez
Ito McMahon are transmitted. McMahon
makes no allusion to hie recall, from
which it is inferred the letter has not
reached him. It is supposed the flag of
truce which brought these dispatches
through the lines to the allies, took back
the dispatches awaiting transmission to
him. There is no longer any doubt that
the allies have been the cause of the ces

In our report of the above case yester
