Apothor sanguinary engagement has taken place—this tine im front of Curupaity, by land and water—between ‘tho Paraguayans and the allies, resulting disastrously to ‘the arms of the latter, contrary to all expectation ip this @ity, ap you aball learn. CLEVER RUSE OF LoFes. On the 84 inst, a steamer arrived from the river Pate ‘with dates from Boenos Ayres and Montevideo to the 984 and 20%h ult., respectively. From the intelligence seeeived a general impression prevailed that peace ‘would be soon restored, on terms advantageous to Bra- wil, an@ “fo triumphe”’ was shouted through the streets, fm the Exobange, the several hotels and cafie, and in private families. 1 beg pardon; the Brazilians never shout; they don’t seem to know bow. Consider, there- fore, that I employed one of those dangerous edge Aools—e figure of speech—as Cobbett batb it. At all events, the people did the next dest thing to shouting— they looked jubilant. The fact is, shey theught the very fect of Lopes proposing conditions of peace was synonymous with suing for peace, and was indicative ef bie ‘ability to continue the war. Alas! the Joy that prevailed throughout @he city was of short duration, for the morrow brought information of a terrible disaster to Brazil, through the machinations of that cunning fox Lopez. The following from one of the otty jourpals is a fair exponent of what was expected te result from the proposals of Lopez, made in perron to the allied commanders, and exhibits the bitterness of allies have just gained a great moral victory. for an interview with the generals of the , and, in aconference which lasted five hours, ‘8 desire to make peace, which amounts to ab a8 saying that he is no longer capablo of fighting. Bot easy to foretell what influence this fact will not only on the Paraguayans but even on our sol- and on the whole country. We see in ita presege feat trnumph, and with it the conclusion of the of war. t seems, however, from al) | have beep able to gther—for the precise terms proposed by Lopez have not transpired—that the shrewd diplomatist and soldier 414 not offer any basin fora peaceable adjustment; that be only manifested a desire to make peace on conditions @tfferent from those established iv the celebrated triple alliance. General Mitre submitted the Dictator’s proposals to a counct) of generals, who decided on commanicating them 40 their renpective governments, without «topping, how- ‘ever, the operations of the war, Letters from Tuijuty give the following detallsof the memorable interview — By the morning of the 12th of September every one in the army knew that Lopez was to hold on that day 2 Gon- ference with the allied commanders. Nor was he waited for long. At half past eight A. M. the foremost videtio weported Lopez and his suite approaching the allied camp ‘with a flag of truce. THE MATING AND cmRerINC, Generai Mitre, followed by General Hornor and it his @wmte, and escorted by twenty cavalrymen, went out to meet him. When near each other the two genernis ad- ‘vanced a few yards trom their respective escorts, and on meoting shook hands, Generais Fiorce end Poiydorn bad Deen invited by General biltre, at the request of Presi. dent Lopez, to attend the meeting. The former accepted ‘the invitation, bot the Brazilian genern! refused to take any part in the cenference, saying that as the command. az-in-gbief would be present, he thought his presence in that place would be useless, Sensible man, that! ‘Tar commas. ‘The conversation lasted five hours, a- already ttaied, Lapes being simost exclusively the speaker. He an- alyzed the policy of Brazi and her two alli¢e 11 in euid that ip the courve of the conversation Lopes manifented rather too earnestly his little sympathy for Brevil, and that im such violent Janguage that Mitre had to tel! him ‘that he could hear him uo longer om such a sabject. It be aloo affirmed that ou separating the two supreme vow. meanders exehauged whips, Lopes being the firet to per. fornn thin act of rather dubious, Van Tromp-tike polite. orm HR WHT RTORY Bere 2 cannot revist the temptation to transmit the following amusing aqnib, taken from the Narion, about the conference between the rival commanders, in swhich \t will be seen that the order of procedure on the evohange of whips is reversed from that already men- tioned.

It is equal to Beauregard’s complaints of “hitting betow the belt,” In the shape of Gilmore's Greek fire and swamp angel. MITRR'S OPINION OF LOPES. General Mitre, subsequent to the meeting, declared ‘that Lopez was animated by the best desires, and was full of the most humane sentiments, which be (lopez) monifested with a vengeance in afew days. According to Mitre the Paraguayan Dictator was willing to make Peace, but would not abandon his power. Query.—Was the abandonment of power by Lopez one of tho condi- tions insisted on by the allied generals, which Lopez found so hard to digest? EPPLCE OF THR INTENDED NEGOTIATION. Lopez's propossls, whatever they may bave been, were communicated immediately to the BraziHan Minis- ter. An answer was returned, the nature of which was not made kn ; Dut it is a matter of certainty that Lopes was dissatisfied therewith, who forthwith recom- menced military operations, resulting in @ serious dis- aster to the allied army and Brazilian fieet, as already mentioned, the particulars of which, from all I can gather, seem to be somewhat like the — THE ATTACK ON CURUPAITY, At reven o'clock on the morning of the 224 ultimo two divinions of the fleet ascended the river, and bombarded the fortress of Cnrupaity for’ four bours; bat only suc- ceeded in dismounting three of the The iron-clads Tamandaré, Barrozo to within sixty fathoms of the enemy, ing in incessant fire of shot and abell, whieh was gallantly turned 65] Paraguayans, to the great damage of the veunels this engaged. ‘Nor were tbe land forces idle; for, shortly after the atinck by river commenced, General Mitre, with his army, iwsned from Cnruzi, and assaulted the first line of entrenchments, close to, Cui rupaily, it i quick time, the Paraguayath Githaravying “whn at) thelr artillery to » The Allies ad im- mediately, and bere their great difficulties began.
