vernment considered as a debt of honour the damages that
might be caused to the Brazilian trade by the reprisals.

In such delicate circumstances the British minister, who
formerly would admit of no means of conciliation at all,
offered now to receive for the consideration of his Govern-
ment any reasonable proposal with a view to facilitate the
adjustment of the pending questions; suggesting the ex-
pedient of having them submitted to animpartial arbitration.
The Imperial Government thought proper not to resolve
upon this expedient without previously knowing, whether
the arbitration was 'to include both questions, or only that
which concerned the officers of the Forte.

With the answer from her Britannic Majesty's legation,
that both questions should be submitted to arbitration, the
Council of State was eonsult2d, and, in conformity with
their opinion, the Imperial Government declared, by a note
of Jan. 5, that wishing to avoid that any intention should
be attributed to them of opposing any peaceable and honour-
able means of resolving the pending questions, wishing to
contribute to the prompt removal, without infringing on
the national dignity, of the existing difficult situation be-
tween the Government of his Majesty the Emperor and her
Britannic Majesty's legation, they accepted the proposal of
arbitration only as to the question concerning the officers of
the frigate Forte, so that the arbitrator should pronounce
not about the right and duty which the Government has of
causing the laws of the country to be executed, but only as
to

the point whether in the manner of applying those laws
any offence had been committed to the British navy.

As to the other question, the resolution already taken by
note of December 29 was maintained, that of paying under
pt otest the sum that should be demanded by her Britannic
Majesty's Government. . _

But, before all, the Imperial Government required that
the reprisals should cease, and the prizes made by the
British admiral should be released.

Mr. Christie having assent: to the agvement on the
terms Esboie propounded, and the principal condition
necessary for its effect having been fulfilled, the Brazilian
minister in London was authorised thus to proceed towards
her Britannic Majesty's Government,
Her Britannic Majesty having accepted the accord as
contained in the notes exchanged at this Court on the sth
of January, and fixed at £3,200 the amount that was to be
paid fur the shipwreck of the Prince of Wales, the requisite
payment was effected immediately by the Brazilian repre-
sentative, with the essential declarations of the accord.
His Majesty the Emperor, acknowledging the sentiments
of justice and impartiality by which his Majesty the King
of the Belgians is distinguished and characterised, proposed
this august sovereign for abitrator in the decision of the
question relative to the officers of the frigate Forte.
This choice was well received by her Britannic Majesty.
His Majesty the King of the Belgians accepted with the
greatest benevolence the functions of arbitrator, which were
offered to him by common accord of the high parties in-
terested.

This affair is still pending, as well as the reclamations
which the Government deemed themselves entitled to ad-
dress to her Britannic Majesty's Government, demanding
condign satisfaction for the violation of their territorial
sovereignty, as five Brazilian vessels have been captured
and detained as prizes within the empire's own waters, on
the plea of reprisals, by war ships of the English navy, and
also a just indemnity for the prejudices resulting from those
captures.

INFORMATION RECEIVED SIYESEQUENTLY TO THE CON-

FLICT AT THIS COURT.

According to the reports received from the president of
the province of S. Pedro, of Rio Grande do Sul, the indivi-
dsals incriminated for the depredations of the English
barque Prince of Wales had been found guilty, and the
process been sent up in conclusion to the respective law
judges.
One of the criminals, the most implicated in that de-

view, if possible, to reconcile and satisfy the two
factions in Missouri. He had instructions not to
interfere with either party, but confine himself to
his military duties.

"I need hardly assure you, gentlemen, that our
side of the case was as fully presented as the occa.
sion admitted. At the close of the conversation,
the President remarked that there was evidently a
'serious misunderstanding' springing up between
him and the Germans of St. Louis, which he would
like to see removed.

" Observing to him that the difference of opinion
related to facts, men, and measures, I withdrew.—

linquency, who had returned to Albardao, was imme-
diately arrested, and the Imperial Government forwarded
the characteristic descriptions of the others to the Imperial
legation at Monte Viddo, in order to claim from the
Oriental Republic the necessary measures for their being
apprehended and delivered over to the justices of the
empire.

These proceedings took place even before the transactions
which passed at this Court with her Britannic Majesty's
legation were known in that province, it not being oppor-
tune to acquaint the last with their result.

General Fremont, the members of the committee

who had consulted the President on the subject at

Washington detailed the results of their interview.
The movement, it appeared, was not originated by

Gen. Fremont or his friends, but by negro preachers

and other prominent black men. Col. Fitirman, a
member of the committee, reported that Mr. Lin-

coin would gladly accept the aid of the coloured
troops as a military erganisqtion, but found some
(lifiienlry, in consequerce of the high rank of Gel].

Fremont, in offering him a command so much less
important than he had a right to accept if again

summoned to active service. He believed, at the

ti 5, me time that " Freenjont was the man to do the
:work and give it aftet, on scejnnt of his peculiari-

ties and those of the coloured people." Displaying
I map, in which the dark parts represented those
portions of the Southern States which were most
largely inhabited by coloured people, Mr. Lincoln
drew the attention of the committee to the country
around Vicksburg, and remarked " that he hoped
for co-operation from the negroes to take Vicks-
burg and to hold it." Mr. Chase, who was present
at the interview, never spoke, but Mr. C. Sumner,
who manifested great interest in the proceedings,
exprese.l his belief "that the greatest name to to
written in the history of the war was to be written
by the hand of that man who should organise the
coloured people into an army for their own delive-
rance and the restoration of the Union." The depu-

tation withdrew, with the impression that Mr. Lin-
coln desired to see Gen. Fremont at the head of

the black army, but could not, for personal reasons,
offer him the appointment; and that he would be
grateful if Gen. Fremont would solve the difficulty
by volunteering his services. The second glimpse
afforded into the workings of Mr. Lincoln's mind is
suggestive of the source of the perils that beset the
country and that must continue to beset it as long
as he remains in power. A German gentleman
named Taussig, who had been deputed during a pro-
fessional visit to Washington to present to the Pre-
sident a copy of the resolutions adopted at a mass
meeting in St. Louis, on the 10th of May last, tells
the story. Mr. Taussig having been admitted and
stated his business, the President read the resolu-
tions in a loud voice. When he had concluded he
entered into a voluntary discussion, which lasted
two hours, on the various subjects which had been
thus brought under his notice. Mr. Taussig on
leaving the White House wrote down from memory
the substance of what Mr. Lincoln said, and pub.
lished it in one of the newspapers of St> Louis.
The chief points in the curious document are that
Mr. Lincoln admitted that it might be a misfortune
for the nation that he was elected President, but
that having been elected he meant to be President,
and to act as such, even if he had to die for it ; that
he would not remove any Generals or make any
changes in his Cabinet to suit the views or wishes
of any particular party, or faction, or set of men ;
that General Halleck was unjustly accused by public
opinion ; that Generals Fremont, Butler, and Siegel
were not systematically kept out of command ;
that they had placed themselves where they were
by their own action, and that he was willing to
employ them again, but that at present he had
more pegs than holes to put the pegs into. He
refused to admit that there was a want of unity in
the Cabinet, though he confessed that each Secretary
was only responsible for the good administration of
his own deparment, and that there was no cen-
tralisation of responsibility except in the President
himself. With regard to the state of nffairs in
Missouri, consequent mainly upon the Proclamation
of Emancipation, and to dissensions which it had
created among the Unionists, the President dec. and
that both parties were wrong, " and ought to have
their heads knocked together ;" that each of them

would rather see the defeat of the other than that
of Jefferson Davis; and that those among them who
were in favour of the gradual emancipatio❑ of the
slaves more nearly represented his views than those
who insisted upon their immediate manumission.

At the close of the interview the President re
marked that there was evidently a serious misunder
standing springing up between himself and the
Germans of Missouri, which he would like to see
removed. It appears from these admissions that
Mr. Lincoln has great confidence in himself, and
almost equal or fidence in his Ministers; and that
nothing less than some great and overwhelming
calamity to the national arms willcause him to yield
to public opinion in the matter of any Minister now
in office, or any General now in command, " fight-
ing Joe Hooker" included.
The working classes in this city, as far as any
jndgment can be formed of their opinions by their
presence in large numbers at meetings in favour of
peace, by their patronage of journals opposed to the
Administration, by their conversation among each
other at places of public resort, or by the chance
remarks which they let fall in the presence of their
employers and others, are strongly opposed to the
war. Though led away, like the majority, in the
burst of passion that followed the bombardment of
Fort Sumter, they gradually lost their interest in
the war as it proceeded. The first cold fit that came
upon their enthusiasm was caused by the President's
Proclamation of Emancipation, for the working
classes, as a body, are not Abolitionists, and the
Irish more particularly are notoriously opposed to
the competition of negroes with white labour. The
second refrigerant of their zeal, more effectual than
the first, was the depreciation of the currency caused
by the enormous issues of paper money, and the
simultaneous rise in the price of food and all the
necessaries of life. The last and, perhaps, the sorest
trial of their patience with a war which they have
ceased to approve or to hope any good from, is the
threatened conscription. The abolition question was
more or less a sentimental one, but the questions of
the currency and the conscription are practical. They
appeal to the pocket and person, and under their
combined influences the working classes of this city
have wrought themselves into a state of discontent
which the Government will do well to study if it
wish to prevent mischief. Hitherto labsur, in con-
sequence of the scarcity of workmen, has been so
well paid that the working man's paradise, if any-
where on the face of the world, was to be found in
the United States. With provisions at only half of
the British and European prices, and wages at a rate
double at the very least, and in some instance treble
that of the Old World, the working man found his
position not only comfortable, but highly prosperous,
inasmuch ae he could live welt and save one-half of
his income. The war, however, has effected a change.
It reduced, through the agency of Mr. Chase's
superabundant greenbacks, the value of the dollar
to about 60 cents, while at the same time it sent up
the price of provisions and other articles of prime
necessity to the extent of 20 or 30 per cent. ; virtu-
ally reducing the working man's income to less than
one-half of what it used to be in the ancient days of
peace and prosperity when James Buchanan was
President. As there was in no trade any rise in
wages in consequence of the enhanced cost of living,
and no disposition on the part of the " bosses" (as
employers here are called, to avoid the use of the
unwelcome word " master," which goes against tie
stomach of a free and enlightened citizen) to raise
the wages to a point at which the labourers could
live as comfortably as before, a series of strikes has
taken Flace in almost every trade in the city. The
stevedores, the longshore-men, the ship builders,
ship painters, the ship joiners, the house carpenters,
the
ers,
the sawyers, the builders, the painters, the tailors,
the shoemakers, the hatters, the compositors, the
pressmen, the pianoforte makers, the scavengers,
and several others are now on strike for an advance
of wages. The ship painters demand 2i dols. per
diem, instead of 11 The longshore-men, or dock
labourers, demand 25c. an hour for 11 hours per
diem, or 21 dols. a day, with 50c. an hour for extra
work after 6 o'clock in the evening ; and all the
other trades make corresponding demands upon the
"bosses," which they justify by the assertion that
the price of food is so high in depreciated dollars
that they cannot support themselves at the ancient

e
