Rup Janwino, Jane 3, 1866, Shortly after the departure of the English packet, with my last letters, information was received here from the seat of war to the purport that Humaitd (the Paraguayan stronghold) must soon be taken, without any great effu- sion of blood, as it was then thought that Lopez would not make a stand at that place, but that bis troops bemg entirely demoralized he was taking his flight towards Asuncion, Subsequent events have proved the con- trary. Tustead of the presumed flight of the Paraguay ans, after burning their camp behind Itapira, they only retreated to a better position, where they awaited the attack of the allies, which took place on the 2d ultimo. THE PARAGUAYANS COMMENCE THE FIGHT, The allies having advanced one league beyond the camp of Itapira encamped and prepared themselves tor an atiack on the Paraguayans, who were not very far off. ‘The fight began by a surprise on the part of the Para- guayans, who, profiting by the imprudence of the allies, who have always entortained a foolish contempt for their enemy, fell suddenly upon them with a force of about seven thonsand to eight thousand men, ‘The onset was made against the vanguard of the allies, commanded by General Flores, of the Oriental army, nearly all of whom were ‘composed of raw Brazilian levies, two battalions of which, in front, being unable to restat the shock, broke and fled, losing a battery of four rifled cannon and falling back in confusion on the Orien- . tal battalions and the Seventh of the line and First Bra- zilian volunteers, who stood the brunt of the combat, * fighting splendidly for a tew minutes, till the Brazilian ‘General Osorio came up with @ division and turned the fortune of the day against tho Paraguayana, who, ac- cording to the official accounts received here, fled, but Kept the battery of artillery they had captured at the commencement of the tight. A DOUBTFUL VICTORY. This victory, if such it can be truty called, ie attributed ‘to the prompt assistance afforded by General Osorio to the vanguard under Flores, for it seems that the latter intended to surprise Lopez, and despising his enemy, who has hitherto proved himself far from beng despicable, had chosen what Osorio considered a vory insecure po- sition, The result has proved that the Brazilian General was right. NEWSPAPER ACCOUNIF. The Buenos Ayres Standard, of May 9, gives the fol- owing dotails:— Yesterday the Espigador arrived, bringing the very important news of a terrific jungle fight, in which the ‘courage, bravery and heroism of the Brazilians are six- ; in fact, ax will be seen by the follow. ing details, the whole of Flores’ vanguard would have completely ‘anmiiilated but for Hrazilian band of er asolid Paraguayan square and ‘2d inst. the Paraguayans, some oight thousand one o'clock inthe day advanced on Flores ed bis — Lopes ‘n person was in com- ayans were four to one it was fight waa very aharp, some ove thou- men and thirty-one officers of Flores hort de ¢mbat, Flores acted with the shouting vehemently to his men, unul 80 hoarse that he lost_bis voice; two horses were shot under him and three of his uldes were also killed, Dut the weight of the enemy was too great, and the Orientals, &c., hed to fall back with great lose, the making the evening hideous with their yells They captared Fiores’ arUilery and completely hemmed in the hero of Yatay. Osorio saw that the moment had arrived when it was possible to make adash to save him. He led on the splendid regiment of the Voluntarios de la Patria, the best Brazilian soldiers in the fleid; they «barged under a cruel fire from the enemy. Every tree in the forest, every branch on the road, belched out flaine from the myriads of Paraguayans, bat this brave forlorn bope, Bothing daunted, rusted with fixed bayonets, and cut through « solid square of the enemy, Flores was saved ; ‘Dut the heroic band of Brazilians which entered the fight several hundred strong was reduced to forty-one k men. The Paraguayans pushed on after Flores’ reinforee ments came up, and the victors became vanquished, the allies clored on the enemy, and pen cannot pant the horrors of that route, Inch by inch (he Varaguayans fought, fell and were trampled on; the guna were re- taken, ‘banoers ured and two small Paraguayan age also seized. At inst night terminaced the carnage. 0 allies held the ground they were driven from in the morning at such frightful coat, and the victory, bloody ‘and sanguinary as it was, waa theirs.

OUR OTTAWA CORRESPONDENCE. Orrawa, Juno 27, 1866, Mr. Galt, tho Financial Minister of Canada, after pre- sonting his Budget to Parliament addressed the Com- mittee of the Whole as follows :— He said that last year there had been a deficiency in the treasury of one million of dollars, and that notwith- standing the abrogation of the reciprocity and the attack on the country by bands of lawless invaders the treasury is now ina much better condition than then. Daring the year there had been an expenditure of $12,106,780, of which $270,303 had been applied to the redemption of the public debt, leaving as ordinary expenditures the sum of $11,836,803. On the other hand the incomo had been $12,432,748, Consequently, after meeting al! charges there was » surplus of $696,365. Of the public debt there was carried to the credit of the country no loss than $325,062, The expenditure he had mentioned in- cluded all the unexpected charges incurred in defend- ing the country against lawless invaders. He knew it would bo satisfactory to the country to know this would inclide the charges that had beon dofrayed and that had to be paid in connection with the last serious in- roads, The notgmog bad realized $7,283,248 against the ornate Oe $e 1 oe oe amitgod p1Bn br fil ion. In exe Tea! 183,575 over poe of iit BB AN Xn da. gsier the govern- ment had received duties om | ions, in- saad of 3,250,000. With regard to the minor articles, nitre and ‘tobacco, the receipts did not much vary fro1 the estimate. It was estimated that the expenditare for miltia purposes would have been covered by $500,000. It really reached $1,168,868. Had thia come upon the country under less tavorable circumstances, it might have enveloped us in difficulties ; but he was delighted to say that all this expenditure has been mot by the ordinary revenue. With regard to the trade of the country he thought the statement must be satix- factory. Comparing the trade of eleven mouths, for which he had returns, with those of previous years, and making an estimate for the other month of the year, it appeared that in 1864-65 there was an import trade of $44,620,400 against $62,004,045 in 1865-66. Thore was Consequently an excess of imporis as compared with (he revious year of nearly $8,500,000. Had this excess not n attended with a corresponding increase of expendi- ture, it must be feared that the country had gous be- yond a prudent course of action; but he was glad to point out that the imports for the twelve months wore $51,684,375 against $42,181,161 in the previous ear, Consequently, though the import trade had been hi the export trade was more than met, and the peo- pl the country were justified in purchasing in fo markets to the extent they had, and the province not apprehend any embarrassment from the trade it has carried on. Tho total revenue of trade had increased from $87,112,620 to not less than $105,018,420, a difter- ence of Bamne egnioen millions. The volume of trade the country carried on as between 1864-65 and 1865-66, exceeded by much more than ten millions any previous year, making a step in advance very gratifying to the House, Passing over other items he came to that of the militia. He ted to have to say that the government would not hold themselves responsible for the safety of the country unless a sum ip excess of what was voted last year was voted now. Instead of asking for $500,000 the vernment felt it t it they wished to empowered to spe They felt the responsibility they had incurred this year in violating the law and expending more than thoy estimated for last year, and desired not to be obliged to do #0 again. These explanations would more properly come from the Min ster of Militia; but he might say that it was desirable that the magnificent volunteer force to which the country owed #0 much should receive further development, and the government would take stops to arm and equip mig ve thousand militia, ead of twenty-five thouaand. Connected with this was the ne- ceasity of placing within the reach of the people of the country depots of arms for enabling them, in case of need, to assist in their own defence. Again, it was ne- cessary to maintain in perfect and regniar efficiency the military jools «that were to train young men to be officers of the volunteer force, th He recognized the way im which the United States had acted in reference to the raids after overt acts bad been committed; but, after all, the safety of a country ‘was in Its own power, and it must depend upon itseli, rather than on a foreign nation, for maintaining the in’ togrity of its soll. The House should remember that the Fenian snake had been scotched, not killed, and a any moment the country might again be called upon to send its young men to meet the lawlera foe, and it was dewira ble that they should be increased in numbers and pro. perly armed and equipped. The Minister then went on to that the revenue from customs will not be #0 brid this year as } and that there will be a deficit of $1, next year. Me continued hua:—if ‘the. goverument conscientiousiy content themselves with asking only for $500,000 for militia, as in the previous year, the whole dim- culty w vanish at once; but they could not honestly do this, and he Ne aypeesrogs fle.

If, other constd: on the hand, we jored the continent large enough for the existence ftof two or more great nations—and he believed ‘was the opinion of the House and the couniry—we could not do better than by es ® fixed system for our- selves, and then light from the great nations of ‘and so make this a better country, governed by wiser financial — He felt that a change ta the fiscal policy might now fairly be made, ax tending to aseimilate our policy to that of the mother country, end ‘thus give to their people and government greater sativ faction. Looking to Great Britain for defence, did, and asking aid of ail her forces to protect tier and our inland waters and our fiehermen on our coasts, we may well consider whether we should not make our fiscal policy more in accord with hers, whether we wore not able to do so at once, graceful to ber and beneficial to ourselves. He next recommended conoes sions to France. Speaking of changes in duties on wartous articles, fe sald:—On Indian core, i&c., imported from ‘the United States, (ere would be w duty of ten cents a bushel, and he proposed asking the House to authorize the governinent to remit this duty if the States altered their policy towards ua On flour the duty would be 0c. per barrel. Mr. Gait then spoke in detail of the articles of import we would admit to a reduction of tax which would eventually ¢ tablish a system of free trade. In regard to the recent conduct towards us of our American neighbors le was glad we had acted in a manner to show we had a ~ sition to oxtend towards them the olive branch. He thonght, however, that if there was one thing more effec- tual than apotber to bring our American friends sround to & true sense of their duties, it waa by showing them (hat we Were to a very great extent independent of them. It was therefore desirable to show them that however ma li we might value their good will and trade, we would pot descend to unfair means to obtain either.
