The adviess from Montevideo by the present mall an-
nounce that the ratification of the commercial tnisay
with Brasil, which has been nearly a year in negotiation,
and which, for some reasons not very apparent, had
caused much di/malefaction throughout the cotton:).
By this the produoe of Brasil will be introduced into the
Republic of 'Montevideo at 3 per cent. below the present
rate of duties the find year, 4 per cent. the seeond, 5 per
cent, the third, 0 per cent, the fourth, and 1 per cont.
less andually until it is admitted free, unlen either of
the contracting parties give sic months' previous notioe
at the end of the fourth year, or any enbeequent period,
of their desire to terminate the treaty. The present
' rates of duties on Brazilian produce are-30 per cont, on
tobacco, 25 per cent. on liquids, and 20 per cent, on
comeetibles. In return for these advantagne Brazil
agrees to admit, duty free, jerked beef, and all animal
products of the Republic, which now are liable to a duty
of 50 per cent. Wheat and other grain, now bearing
5 per uent. duty, are to be reduced to 2 per cent, the
first year, and 1 per cant, the second, and are afterwards
to be admitted free. Flour, which now pays 15 per
cent., is to he reduced 12 percent. the first, and a further
1 per cent, every aubsequent year. The Brazilian lake
Marion, which borders the northeastern frontier of the
Republic, is to be open to the navigation of Montevidean
vessels as soon aa certain Custoin.house arrangements
shall have bean oomPleted. -Passport' for crossing the
frontiers are mutually sholishad, and by the 16th article
of the treaty military form on thu frontier may sot by
common sword egainat spoilers of persons or property.
The balance of advantages from this treaty is considered
to be decidedly in favour of Brasil. Spain, it is be'
Raved, is the only country which VOINSICI a treaty with
Montevideo allowing her the same commercial privileges
granted to the moat favoured nations.
