By the arrival here of the Steam Saladin, from Rio de Janeiro, we have news of River Plate until June 29, reflecting a serious naval commitment between the Brazilian fleet and 8 Paraguayan ocean liners and 8 floating batteries, the greatest bravery unfolded on both sides, and the terrifying blood bath. Victory is claimed through Brazilians.
The engagement took place on June 11 in Riachuelo, just below Corrientes, on the Paraná River.
In San Borga, on the Uruguay River, Paraguayans took the village and are said to have killed the entire Brazilian garrison.
