Bvenos Ayres, Dec. 27, 1865. ‘Yesterday our city was astonished by the arrival of the Chilean Minister, who came up in a steamer from Monte- video, after rupturing pacific relations between Chile and ‘Truguay. Pefore night the walls of the city were well posted with ihe correspondence. It seems that in the present war between Spain and ‘Chile the latter has desired to fit out privateers against Spanish commere. On the eastern coast of South America there is considerable Spanish trade, The Chilean Minister was proceeding to send out vessels with letters of marque against Spanish commerce, arranging ‘bring the prizes into Uruguayan ports, when the governinent of Uruguay objected to the proceeding, d@oslaring itself strictly neutral. Phis called forth a wevere proiest from the Minister, Senor Lastarria, and tho reply was his paseport, with the hope that he would rotire without delay, tis understood that this govern- ment will take the same position as Uruguay on this question.» ars are entertuimed of a war between Chile and Uruguay, for the former 4s ina war for her Jife with her old enemy, Spain, and the latter has sent every available man, with its Chief Magistrate, General Viores, against Paragnay. With the hands of both Parties so tied, the results will probably be no werse than a payer war, ALLIED PREPARATIONS TO ATTACK MUMAITA The allies have Concentrated their forces at Corrientes, ‘near the be y of Paraguay, and whence forces can be sent up either the Paraguay river or the Parana. Re. cently the Brazilians have been increasing their forees, #0 thai the allies must now have assembled forty-tive thousand men. By agreement President General Mitre is eommander-in-chief while theallies oesupy the Argentine territory. It is suid that by the end of January matters 4m preparation will be ready for an attack on Fortress Hamaita This place bas lately been much strengthened ; about two hundred guns are in position, chains are placed across the river, and torpedoes are planted near it ‘Prosident Mitre intends to atwck this fort simultaneously: by land aud water. THE PARAGUAYAN DEFRNORS, Across the river Parana there are two ferries, or fords, where the banks of the river are practicable for teams. Thewe are Passo da Patria and Paso de los Bucyes, At the former the Paraguayans are strongly fortifying and Preparing well to dispute the pase, As tue other pase is unfortified jt is likely that President Mitre will choose this one when he is ready.

The Tennessce Union State Convention assembled nere to-day. The attendance of delegates was very large and the best feeling prevailed. Henry Cooper, of Bedford, presided. The Committee on Resolutions reported a series which are substantially as follows:—That the poople of Ten- neasee are excluded from the benefits of the Union upon the unfounded assumption that they are not sufficiently loyal to be admitted to representation in Congress; that the delegates to this convention place on record their united testimony that there is no truth in the imputation of disloyalty made against the people of this State; that Parana river are again floating.

The result is that the prices of cattle have advanced so much as to almost suspend the annual bao eg the hides, bones and tallow. Such large reinforcements are coming from Brazil that the allies are believed to have fifty thousand wen within a day’s march of the passes of the Parana. TY THOUSAND BRAZTIANS IN THE FIRLD. A good authority here estimates the Brazilian forces under arms in the allied service on the frontier at eighty thousand men. ‘Ten thousand men have arrived at Montevideo during the last two months, en route to Cor- rientes, Within the last three days sixteen hundred more have arrived. Eighteen hundred are on the way, and four thousand two hundred are waiting for transports to-bring them to the river Plate, I cannot beheve that all of the designs of Brazil have yet appeared on the surface. ‘The utmost activity prevails in the province of Entre Rios, General Urquiza is gathering troops with great in- dustry for the allied camp. An order has been issued shutting up all the grog shops of the “rural districts” of that province. The same is pro} in this province. Thus we shall have the ‘Maine jaw,” and without a single temperance society in the country. Later advices contradict the report of the French war steamer Decidee bringing gold from Paragnay for Lopez or any one else. The news by the French steamer yesterday has be ied raised the price of fine wools, During the month of De- cember 17.583 bales of wool and 486 bags have been shipped. About half of the whole amount went to the United States, Immense quantities of new wheat hegin to arrive. ‘The old blockade ruuners Agnes Arkle and Lelia Bell have been gold to the Brazilian Steam Packet Company. ‘The heat here is unprecedented, reaching for some days one hundred and two and one hundred and four degrees Fahrenheit in the shade. Yesterday it mode- rated, and the highest was eighty-nine degrees; to-day seventy seven degrees. ANOTHER RAILROAD CASUALTY. Collision en the New Jersey Ratlroad— Several Persons Seriously Injured and the Engines and Cars Badly Broken. A fearfa) collision occurred shortly before nine o'clock yesterday morning on the New Jersey Railroad, about one mile this side of East Newark station, between the Washington through train, which left Jersey City at haif-past. eight o'clock, and a wood train, which left ark at ten minutes before nine. Two brakemen, named Wm. Adee and Joseph Odwell, were seriously in- jured by the accident and several other persons received dad, but not dangerous, cuts and bruises. From what we could leara concerning the accident, it appears that the Washington train, consisting of four passenger cars, and one baggage and one mail car, which should bave left Jersey City at eight o'clock, was de- tained in consequence of a dense fog upon the river for atull half hour, and did not reach East Newark station util a fow minutes before nine, The wood train from Newark waited for the Washington train for some time on the other side of the bridge before crossing the river, but the Philadelphia train srprcecs- ing it ‘in the rear, it was compelled make way for it, and accordingly Tan op to East Neware depot, where it switched off upon the up track from New York. The wood train was followed clos:ly by the train from Philadelphia, and in order to let it pass had to cross the track upon which the cars run from Jersey City. Searcely had the wood train reached the opposite track when the Washington came aiong, running at reduced speed, and ran into the locomotive of the wood train with great force, badly damaging both engines and jam- ming the forward pari of one of the passeuger cars’ into the rear end of the baggage car. Wiltiata Adee, whe was atvending to bis brake on the forward end of ‘the mail car, was caught by the rear of and crushed through the end of the mail vafined until released, His legs t they will both have to be amp: which it 1s thoaght, together with the other inja will prove fatal. They were obliged to break through the end of the ear to release him, and his Limbs were so firmly held between the cars that he could not tint th» cars were separated by means of The poor back.

Mr. Mullens offered a substitute for the above report, which was laid upon the table amid enthusiastic cheer ng. The report of the committee was then adopted amid SS and vociferous cheering, which continued for several minutes, Speeches were then imade by Messrs.
