Ricardo López Jordán, an Argentinian Federalist, has made new plans, which include a revolution in the entire country with the support of Brazil.

He had again returned to his province on November 25, 1876, but this time he had found no support.

One of his detachments had been annihilated by General Juan Ayala in combat at Alcaracito (in the department of La Paz in Entre Rios) on December 7, after which many of López Jordán's partisans who had been taken prisoner (among them a colonel, the son of Genaro Berón de Astrada, a former governor of the Argentine province of Corrientes) are shot.

It is the end of the last Federalist adventure.

López Jordán flees toward Corrientes on December 16, but, betrayed by a friend, he is taken into custody by the governement at Goya.
