NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 28, 1869—QUADRUPLE SHEET. Sea reece een great, and, once free, he stands on | only one year in existence, has become @ footing, social and political, with | very popular. It appears that this com- the dominant Portuguese race. Hence | pany is compelled to use horse power we find in Brazil a liberal intermixing and har- monious fusion of races, including all the Mexican crosses between the European, Amer- fcan and African types—whites, reds and blacks, producing all the shades possible from the blending of any two or all three of these original colors, Among the Brazilians, there- fore, Douglass would be at home, and his eolor would be accepted as a compliment to “the customs of the country.” We doubt not hat in this view Douglass would be more cor- dially received even at the Court of Dom Pedro the Second (a prince of superior abilities ‘and accomplishments) than any white man ‘as “Envoy Extraordinary” from the United States; for, in addition to his advantage of a gmixed complexion, he is a courtly and polished gman and thoroughly imbued with the doctrine ‘of colored equality, though we are not quite ‘certain as to his opinions of the American from the Brooklyn terminus to Bushwick ave- nue—a distance of nearly three miles—causing a great loss of time, and that a bill to remedy this, by permitting the use of a dummy engine for that distance, has already passed the State Assembly and is now before the Senate Com- mittee. It is to be hoped that our legislators will do what is best for the safety of life and limb, notwithstanding the powerful influence of the heads of the Long Island company. Reciprocity on a New Scale. We publish to-day a detailed statement of a terrible execution for homicide that occurred recently in her Britannic Majesty’s province of Prince Edward Island, on the American Con- tinent. It will be seen that the hangmen in that province have a method of performing their duties which knocks that of our owt New York Sheriffs—those of the chloroform stamp ‘aborigines. Moreover, Douglass is not a belli- | especially—completely in the shade, To cose individual, but a man of peace, and so, if| place a man on the gallows, fairly ‘there be any valid objections to his appoint- hang him once, and the rope snapping or the scaffold breaking down, without snapping or breaking the man’s neck, in- sures, according to the Prince Edward code, the victim being carried back to his cell, and, if unconscious, to his enjoyment of the refined luxury of having restoratives applied in the shape of good wines and other stimulants, in order to restore him to sufficient consciousness to enable him to appreciate the felicities of a second attempt to break his neck or choke him to death according to her Majesty’s law. It is, therefore, a matter of interest to those concerned in the execution of the law for capital offences in the United States to see that the reciprocal treaty proposed to be established between our country and Great Britain should contain a positive provision when the question of the refinement of cruelty in executing judgment upon malefactors comes up. This will, indeed, be reciprocity upon a new and humane scale. AN ED:TORIAL ECLIPSE. ament to Brazil under the new dispensation, wo should like to hear them. ‘She New Phase of the Paraguayan War. Our very interesting correspondence from Buenos Ayres of March 14 and Rio Janeiro of March 26 gives us important information with reference to the struggle for the con- quest of Paraguay. Since last January the allies have displayed a masterly inactivity. Instead ‘of following up their successes at Villeta with ‘w dash into the interior they have been ‘musing themselves at Asuncion, Com- ganders have been changed all round; the ‘octogenarian Caxias has been recalled to Brazil, and the son-in-law of Dom Pedgo UL, ‘Comte d’Eu, has been charged with the a= fpreme command. This gentleman has a repu- tation fur considerable energy. If we may qudge of the difficulties attending the penetra- lion of Paraguayan territory he has need of it all. Lopez is now fortified at a very strong point apon the railroad from Asuncion to Villa Rica, not far from Asuncion—so near, indeed, that Arrest of Mr. Charies A.

The force which Lopez has gathered | at his residence last evening, charged with having published in that journal a libel on Mr. John Russell Young, managing editor of the Tribune. The damages were laid at $100,000 and the suit was brought before Judge Tappan, of the Supreme Court. Mr. Dana, in reply, denied the charges, and was held to bail in the sum of $10,000. The following is the affidavit of Mr. Young:— Surreme Court, KINGS COUNTY.—John Russell Young ve. The Sun Printing and, Publishing Awociation, Charles 4.

The allied force is twenty- Bix thousand, all told. Deducting from these the one-third which never can be found in an @ttack, we shall find that the remainder is scarcely a sufficient force to promise a speedy termination of the war in favor of the allies.

The new campaign against the interior will be commenced in May or June, and this “time the iron-clads canaot be at hand to pro- tect the allied army. In the meantime we notice the arrival here of two commissioners on the part of Paraguay to our government.
