We have exchanged the low, inarshy country, that borders the river for so long a distanoe from Rs mouth—filled with o thousand species of long legged long necked birds, looking as if their nutriment was the malaria of the marsh—for considerable elewmtions, covered ‘with a substantial growth of wood, and promising a beaa- tifol scenery as we ascend.

Mutton, indeed, is not looked upou by a gaucho as worthy of his digestive powers, nor evan a ten. der piece of beef; so that the loaghest old ox is more Pleasing tw his pslate than any dish savored by moterp Civilization. Speaking oPonimals, the mule seems to be the most venerated of all, bis aimble feet and gagucity for | twavelling difficult passes more than compensating for his hide, and the little fat that may cling desperately about his bones. Our object in stopping «| this place was to procure coal, it having been selected ag a station for that purpose, Three veeeels bad already arrived, deeply laden wiih this very important article, the bark Pathflader entering just bafore ws.

We bad a plessact interview, and fixed the time for the President’s reception for the pext day afier. Soon after my arrival T learned from Gea.

We became bewer frienas at every meeting, but could not agree upon all pots, Finally, it was proposed that our nex: mecvog shonid be held in presence of Gen. Urquiza, Gen.

We comaiwnved the dis sussion of the pointe of dillerence ove by one, and, as we. settiea them, they were reauces to writing. We then drew up ab egreement, which was signed by the I’res.dent aod wyseif, Thie was the crowning glory of the woole altar, ‘aud 1 the general joy over it Gen. Urquiza embraced Pro. eident Lopes.

They were much alarmed at our expedition, and this news seemed wo lft a burden from their hearts. Taey are « simple, ineflensive people, governed, I should judge, with ‘a cespotic rule, uncer which they seem (o flourish. "Phoy are a lively, spirited people, aud remarkably neat ant clean for an [ucian mixed race.

I see here nothing but unmistakable evidences ofa poor bas happy, | Iaughtertoving people, made to assume a better appeur- ‘apce than their neighbors from the strong hand that rales them. Their government is of tho cheApest character imaginable, aud tbe revenue to support it is mainly de- rived from monopolies on articles of produce, somewhat | peculiar to the country. Their revenues from customs | maust be emall, as they are certainly neither a producing nor very consuming people. This revenue is chiefly speut on an army and for fortifications, As the Presiden: is ‘the fountein and eource of all power, he is also the reci- Pient and the disbureer of all revenue, which, in the eyes of a simple peop’, confoundmg the iddividual with tue ‘State, makes up the account of that fabulous wea!tn about which #so much has been gaia. | This ‘6 # small State. claiming some six hundred thou. | sand inbabitants, and having ecarcely foar_huadred thou- sand, and they nearly all Indians of the Guarance race, | civilized onder the rigid rule of the Jeeuits.

Such a Population is not likely to make a very rich State. Tucir country is uo doubt very productive in articles of a pec liar and valucble character, such as Yerba or Paraguayan tea, and many medicinal planta and gums, and pocutiar woods of the forest; bat beyond that I know of nothing they produce superior to ourselves in quality, and nothing to compare to us in quantity, with an equal population. They cap produce sugar cheap, as the plaot inate for many years,and they bavea beautiful staple of cotton, | but (uy raise neither beyond a mere supply of their ne- | cessities, The real secret of Paragnay’s apparen’ prosperity. in contrast with her neighbors—for it would not do to con troet hor with w progressive people—lica in the fast of her exetpption from revolntions.
