BRAZILS AND THE RIVER PLATE.

SOUTHAMPTON, Brxnzr.
The Royal Brazilian mail packet Tamar has
arrived with the South American mails. Her dates
of sailing are—Buenos Ayres, Oct. 28; Monte
Video, 31 ; Rio de Janeiro, Nov. 9; Bahia, 13 ;
Pernambuco, 15; St. Vincent, 23; Lisbon, Dec. 2.
The Tamar brings 74 passengers.
The freight on board (=theta of diamonds
of the value of 27,9661. 7s. 10d. ; British coin,
16,5831. 11e. Bd.
The Brazilian ports were all healthy, excepting
slight r.icknees at Pernambuco. The most important
item of intelligence consists in the reported revo-
lution at Buenos Ayres, authentic rumours of which
event had reached the Royal Mail packet Camilla
when quitting Monts Video on Oot. 31 • the =-
cullers, however, had not then transpired.
Admital Sir Stephen Lushingtow, on the receipt of
the news at Rio, had despatched her INeety's
steamship Oberon to the Plate.

A Paris correspondent of the BeeMpendattee Beige
says, apesking of the recent isetellatica of the Archbishop of
Paris as head of the Imperial Chapter d SL Dais:—" The
Cardinal-Archbishop was received et the cathedral door as
Archbishop of Paris, with the oral oreosales ; bat as noon
ea he altered the building his Mole was tarn off, and he
afterwards knelt down before Monolgesur Seoseel. the Popes
nuncio, and received the stole back again from his hands. I
hear In very many quarters that lbs clergy of Paris is not
very well pisased at the above ideddest in the ceremony.
The archbishop, being a °ordinal, is of a higher task than
the Pope's nuncio, who is only sa archbishop ix partifee,
sad ought not, therefore, sandbar to Iderarohical ruler, to
have accepted Investiture of the stole from Whet hands than
those of soother aardinal, deputed ai hoe by his betimes.
But the leaders of the oltrantoateas party wars delighted so
me the drat archbishop of "Maas, mid a cardinal, on his
bases before a simple nuneis, who, somedlag to the me-
corder, and to established usage in Prance, is oely a walled
ambassador without hierarchical rank. This rent, Wield as
It may appear to be, is In the eyes of the clergy highly dead-
mat at re present water."

NI:. DBUJIMOND, Z.P., AND THE FBEItCH.

Mr. H. Drutamond, M.P., has just published, in
the form of a AMA pamphlet, "A Letter to Mr. Bright
on his Plan for turning the English Monarchy into a De-
mocracy." The burden of the letter is the prediction
of a French invasion. Mr. Drummond quotes from • lead-
ing French paper these words, in reference to the effect pro-
dnoed on the French by a speech by Mr. Roebuck—" It re-
quired bat the hoisting of a flag upon a mast to have eon-
verged that roadstead (Cherbourg) into a era of blood ;"
whereupon Mr. Drummond remarks :—" Now, hoisting •
nag does nothing; if indeed people are prepared to do some-
thing previously agreed to be done on seeing that signal, then
truly the flag does perform an important part in the play.
Such is the fact ; the wonder im that they should have let it
out. A. considerable number, both of artillerymen and satire
there, did want to shot their guns; they were restrained ;
but It wee only under the promise conveyed through the army
and navy chaplain, that d aeons do deer mu de *erase envie
de rdrigkgerre !" After siting authorities with the view of
proving the soundness of the construction which he puts
upon the intentions of our allies, be adds :—" Just after the
Emperor mounted the throne ha said to en eminent diploma-
tist, have three missions to teal : to re-establish the Na-
poleon dynast, revise the treaty of 1816, sad revenge Wister-
ias): 'At these last words,' said the reporter of this anecdote,
' his voice altered and trembled with emotion, and his dull
eyes sparkled like those of • haaillak: He has often declared
to others that he had three things to accomplish, let, re-es-
tablish the empire, 2nd, put down the press, Brd, revenge
Waterloo. He has done the two first, which, when he said
this, were more unlikely to be fulfilled, and certainly mom
difficult, than the last. • • • • • The Emperor
is not a man to do things without preparation ; besides
which he will give us no warning. He knows that his
whole prospects, life, and fame depend on that one stroke.
He will send from Toulon and Algiers, at one and the same
moment, fleets and armies •plat Malta and Gibraltar.
He will send a fleet with troops es board to Ireland, where
he will be joined by rebellions papists, determined to join
with anything which should destroy pronstandant, as their
authorised journals in France aad Belgium bare declared.
He will send • fleet to fight your flat Ia the Channel ; whilst
gunboats from Cherbourg, Brest, sad Boulogne land troops
in the Thames, the Mersey, on the southern coasts, and
probably, at Glargow. After he is Isere he will perhaps
proclaim war. He will risk 300,000 men; he will land 100,000,
and destroy her,, at least, three times that number of men,
woman, and children, besides bereft as immense amount
of property In buildings, and the 10,000 foreign patriots now
in London, will set It on fire in twenty places for the sake of
ponder, and the shopkeepers will ran away." Mr. Drum-
mond has no confidence either in the talent or energy of the
Queen's present ministers. "I doubt if soy one of them,
except Lord Derby, ever dreamed of such a thing as
how to defend this country. I have no more
faith in them than I have In you seder then

circumstancee." This is what he would i.e done
We have 93,000 bayonets In India; they should be
brought home as soot sa possible. I fear the people must
look to themselves, and not trust to the Horse °wird., to
defend us from foreign attack. The country is thickly en-
closed, and raw soldiers an do mach behind hedges and
buildings whioh they could not do Ls the open field. An
invading army could bring neither cavalry nor artillery.
Oar roads are narrow, sad the columns of march must be
long; mote men perish in war from want of Nat than from
bullets, and the invaders should never be allowed to sleep
for a single instant. Every one who can afford to buy a
rifle and revolver should procure them forthwith, and they
should instantly foes themselves Into ride clubs ; the people
who cannot, most sees pitchforks, scythes, or billhooks on
poles, fails, or whatever else they can get. Every village
or town where the invaders halt to rest should be set on
fire, and their flanks and rear should be hung upon,
no quarter given. If the emergency be not thought
sufficiently urgent to require the Militia to be now embodied,
at least all the pillows should be assembled and
formed into regiments at Aldershot; that they may
be thoroughly prepared, which the greater number are
not now, to take the effeotive command of men when the
necessity for calling them out arises. The lords lieute-
ntnt of counties, with the aid of the deputy-lientenents,
should have lists of every art, waggon, horse, and
all other MOWN of conveyance for troops, guides through
heck lanes, and over unenclosed downs and heaths, to
°induct the armed masses on the flanks of the invaders, all
ready for the use of the government at a moment's notice.
There measures would oust very little; but the moral
affect of such a demonstration on the part of the whole

population would be immense on the ardour of those who
are planning our conquest. We are the moat quarrelsome
people in the world, the most Wanking, the most offensive,
and yet will sot bare or practtos the steam of defending
enrolees from the eonseqrteoces of oar misbehaviour. Oa
the fret symptom of a hostile sail appearing, martial law
should be proclaimed, and every male thing brought out to
fight; and, from the experience which we have had in late
years of the conduct of kings, let us thank God that we
have a Queen rather than a man on the throne, and one
with all the courage of her race."
