BRAZIL.

We have received the Gazda do Rio of' the 30th
of July, but it contains no account of any political
event. It is altogether filled with addresses from
different provinces and towns of Brazil, congratu-
lating the Prince Regent on the measures already
adopted by his government for securing the inde-
pendence of Brazil, and recommending the convo-
cation of a legislative assembly. As a specimen of
the spirit in which these addresses are drawn up,
we insert the following extract from that of the
province of Parahiba do Norte, which was presented
by the Minister Jose Bonifacio de Andrada e Silva,
in the character of a Provincial Deputy :
!. That a generous people, through the medium of me, their
legitimate delegate, uneniniously deposit in the bands of your
Royal Highness the authority of osauaging and directing their
affairs, without being obliged to recur to the old world across
thousands of leagues of ocean. They wish to obtaiu that po-
litical representation which a free and well-constituted people
ought to possess, and to enjoy those privileges and preroga-
tives which are their inherent right: but they at the same
time desire to remain subject to Don Joam VI. the august
fattier of your Royal Highness, mud the constitutional King of
Portugal, Braid, and the Algarve*, to whose generosity Bra-
zil is indebted for her emancipation and her rank as a kiugdom.
With these views, they look. forward to the establishment,
its
the vast and rich continent of Brazil, of a centre of power
and union, where favours and justice may be found without its
being necessary to go to beg them in foreign and remote clinics.
Confident in their Meliorable rights and in the justice with
which they claim them, the people of Paratiiha solicit your
Royal Highness to intercede with your august father, in order
to procure his assent to their deaire; and that they may enjoy
the right of possessing within their own country a complete
delegation of the Royal pow. r in the august person of the heir
of the throne, and a firm support of their fidelity in the bril-
liant virtues and liberalism of your Royal Highness.
they natter themselves that the Corte* of Lisbon will not be
so h ind and obstinate as to prefer the horrors of a ciiil war
among brothers, to a union founded on the equality tad reci-
procity of interests and privileges."

A PICHORS.—The following clause, being the 18th,
in the Salvage Act, passed on the 2d of July, 18'21,
is important to the ship-owners, anti furnishes a
caution to the manufacturers of anchors:—
And be it further enacted, that all manufacturers of an-
*bora and kedge anchors, shall place Isis, her, or their name or
Raines, together with a progressive number, and also the weight
of the anchor, in legible characters upon the crown, and also
upon the *hank under the stock of each anchor, which he, she
to they, shall manufacture ; and shall also place his, her, or
their name or na nes, together with a number, and also the
weight of the kedge anchor, upon the crown, and also upon
the shank near to the stork of every kedge anchor, which he,
she, or they, shall manufacture ; and in use soy such manu-
facturer shall neglect to place such name, number, or weight,
in the 'manner hereinbefore directed and required, every such
person or persona st. offending shall, on conviction before any
justice of the peace or magistrate, ou the oath of one creditable
witness, or osi the confession of the party so offending, forfeit
and pay any 811111 nut exceeding SI. nor L as than 40s. one half
of which penalty shall be paid to the informer, and the other
halt' to the poor of the pariah or township in which such offence
shall be committed."
It' all anchors were marked as thus directed by
law, many would be recovered by the owners, which
now go the lords of manors as droits, on account of
the parties not being able to identify them : and
more facility would he afforded it' ship-owners caus-
ed the name of the ship, and to what port she be-
longs, to be marked upon the anchor, with the
weight and date of its manufacture.
WESTMINSTER-HALL—The Hall is filled with
workmen, and the works preparatory to the building of the new
Law Courts are rapidly proceeding. Mr. Bankes, in the course
of the last erasion of Parliament, moved for an account of the
probable expense of building the new courts, which was pre-
sented by Mr Arbuthnot. It has ADCe been printed. The fol-
lowing is an extract from it:—
" 13, Lincoln's Inn Fields, Dec. 24, 1521.
" I am of opinion, that the expense of the works contemplated
in the design referred to, exclusive of warming the different
courts, and arse the fittings to the different courts, and the ap-
pendages thereto, will nut exceed one Imedred thousand pounds.
" From the commencement of the work to the completion
thereof will require three years, and the expenditure each year
woad, it ih presumed, be nearly the me.
