Why, then, disturb this state of things? Too much legis- lation is an evil, {¢ operates much as the practice of some quacks who physic their patients to death, Let well alone should he the motto of every member of Congress. ‘The War of the Allies Against Lopez, ‘We publish elsewhere the agreement drawn up in Asuncion, the seat of the pro- visional government of Paraguay, and signed by the representatives of the Brazilian empire and the Argentine Confederation, for the withdrawal of the greater portion of the allied troops from the confines of Para- guay. This step the Ministers pretend to con- aider is the proper course to pursue, on the plea that the war is ended. It is ‘evident, however, from the language of the protocol, that the withdrawal of the forces Is more a matter of necessity than a conscientions belief that Lopez is annihilated and powerless to make any further resistance in the field. The grand victories of the allies have proveh at this late day singularly barren of results. True, they have driven the ‘“tyrani Lopez,” as they are pleased to call him, from isis capital end principal strongholds; yet under all his reverses of fortune he preserves a defiant front, and with his handful of followers is able to successfully evade his pursuers. The plain truth of the matter is that the war | of the allies against Lopez has ‘proved a tail- ure, and were it not for the persistent obsti- nacy of Dom Pedro, of Brazil, it would have been brought to a close before this. So far as the Argentine Confederation is concerned, its alliance with Brazil was not a voluntary action, but acompact into which the Confederation was compelled to enter by the intimidating influences of the Brazilian empire. With re- gard to Uruguay, that republic was so com- pletely in the power of its powerful neigh- bor that it would have been worse than madnegs to take an independent stand dgainst the well known desires of Brazil to the con- trary. Thus was an alliance formed whioh, while possessing all the semblance of volun- ‘tary action on the part of the high contracting parties, in reality contained none of its ele- ments. Had the allies a less indefatigable foe to contend against than that which they met in the person of President Lopez, it is safe to. maintain thet the Paraguayan war—which, from its inauguration up to the present time, has spread over a.period of nearly five years, and which has resulted in the devastation of o fruitful and bounteons proviuce and the de- moralization of an industrious people—would have been brought to a close long since. From present indications, notwithstanding the protocol of the 24th of November, the war sgainst Lopez will be continued. Though re- peated announcements have beep made that the army of the Argentine Confederation had been withdrawn, we learn from onr, Sonth American correspondents and other sources that the Argentines are still in the field. Bra- zilian volunteers still linger in Paraguay, though the government long since announced that they would be recalled. The idea prevails, and not without some foundation for the helief, considering the depleted condition of the Bra- zilian treasury, that the reason why the volan- teers are retained in Paragaayis on account of the inability of the government to give them their arrears of pay, the gratuity of three hundred dollars and the tract of three hundred acres of land promised to exch on his returo from the war. The posjtion of Brazil is* most humiliating. Defied by a State almost reduced to a desert, the great empire finds itself laden down with an enormous debt, its credit abroad destroyed and its armies unable to destroy or capture the few followers who still cling to Lopez and are true to him under every reverse of fortune. So long as Lopez lives end is at liberty the Paraguayan war will continue, unless in the meantime the obstinacy of Dom Pedro can be overcome by financial emburrass- ments, the discontent of his people and the advice of those whose love of country is not buried in their prejudices. Our Special European Correspondence, Our special writers in London, Paris and Madrid supply the very valuable and exceed- ingly interesting correspondence which appears in our columns,this morning. The letters are dated to the 6th of March. They speak of finance, art, love, marriage, dress, balls, dances and American patriotic fétes and di- plomacy. Our London letter, which reports the financial condition prevailing in Europe, presents matter of great consequence. It is, therefore, treated separately. From Paris comes a very animated special account of the marriage of Miss Elizabeth Field, of New York, in the French capital, con- cluding with many excellent and sage re- marks on the happy effects which must ensue towards the equalization of the social balance of tho world by such happy blendiags of a free and educated transatlantic democracy with the lineal aristocracy of the old lands, The Papal coin was refused generally in Paris, Art was in triumphant elevation over French political squabbles, and the Cubinet difficul- ties and tactics of M. Ollivier were over- shadowed, and, for the moment, unheeded, by the light and the beauties of the objects pre sented in the San Donato collection, General Sickles entertained a numerous and gallant com- pany at the United States Ministerial residenco in Madrid on Washington’s birthday anniver- sary. The American Minister, a3 will be seen, was “everywhere” in the rooms, and the Stars and Stripes and the flag of Castile, and Spanish generals and Dons, and native and American beauties, and orators and merchants, and lawyers and “everybody” were com- mingled in the most happy and auspicious fraternity, Our special news budget is at all points hopeful for mankind in general, and for the Cubans in particular. { Conxoror BaTtRy.—Numerous are the con~ jectures ventured by public opinion as to the cause of Collector Bailey's extraordinary ab- gence from his office, and, it is feared, also from the city. Some tend to prove that the tempting overtures made by the whiskey ring were too strong for his mental power; others fain would assert that the many threnté launched against him eventually turned him crazy, and that he sought solace in flight. A still stronger theory is advanced by many who profess to be well posted in his manner of fill- ing bis office-nymely, that his live of cons | i . duct both towards the government and tho _public has obliged, him to become an absentee inorder to avoid prosecution, founded on @ multiplicity of malpractices. Whatever may eventually prove to be the real cause of this unusual proceeding, it ts to-he hoped that the public mind may soon be relieved from the pre- sent state of uncertainty. A Dayerrous Locairy.—The murderous and cowardly assault committed upon Major Leland on Saturday night, by one of those ruf- fians who prowl in the vicinity of Prince and Mercer streets, knowing that there is a safe | asylun in the “sporting crib” at that corner, is but a single example out of many which might be quoted to show the extremely dangerous character of thatneighborhood. The murder- er’s refuge in question is well known to the police, and this isnot the first time that roffians have escaped them through its friendly assistance. Any respectable citizen may be assaulted in like manner if he veuture near this murderous locality after dark. The police are evidently afraid of its denizens or they would have been driven out of itlong ago. Tug Erection Fravp Witnrssrs.—Dis- trict Attorney Morris, over in Brooklyn, was resolute to prosecute certain of the persons concerned in the election frauds in that city. He had his cases all made up and his wit- nesses ready. The defence was very anxious to get hold of the witnesses before the cases should come to trial, The District Attorney wisely concealed the names of his witnesses, however, until Judge Pratt gave an order from the bench that the District Attorney should give the names of his witnesses to the defence two days béfore trial. What is the result of that order? Simply that the witnesses have been tampered with, and that when the cases are called for trial the witnesses are always out of the way. Ere Atways Turning Ur—Not only in the courts, in Wall street and on the track, but also in barrooms. The employés of the com- pany seem to be infected with the reckless, domineering spirit of their masters, and on Saturday last, because one of their number was turned ont of a restaurant, they stormed the place en masse and beat the offender in the most brutal manner. Might not a little legal surgery, occasionally and judiciously adminis- tered, benefit these ‘‘Eric-pressible” des- peradoes? : 4 {UE GERALD IN THE COUNTRY. {From the Waverly (N. Y¥.)

This neighborhood ts chiefly tenanted by negroes, and as soon as the potiee arrived at the alleyway the lights iu the houses were all pus out, and the negroes Doured tn @ volley, with the above result, The feeling among the special police is much aroused by the loss of their comrade at the hands of Degroes, but the calmness and decision of Mayor Ellyson tully controls it, It is the opinion of one of the captains that two or Uiree gegroes must have been killed by weir tire. “ Negroes baving arms in their possession are now being brought in.
