MONTE VIDEO.

Intelligence from Monte Video, of an interesting
character, will be found in the following fragment
of a private letter, thus expressed :
"My predictions at last have been realised. The
President has been obliged to fly for shelter to a French
vessel. His refusal to comply with the wishes of the
most eminent parties of the republic, to remove certain
officials whose conduct during the last siege was highly
repugnant to their feelings and incompatible with that

" Monte Video, after a siege of ten years, in which
were performed the most valorous. deeds, was delivered
of the tyranny to which General Oribe tried in vain to
reduce her. Shortly after this glorious deliverance a
new President was elected, unfairly, by the intrigue of
parties, being a man totally undeserving the confidence
of the nation. New men, unknown in the field of battle,
were appointed to the first situations ; and those who
had so bravely defended the country, at the cost of their
fortune and blood, were deposed.
"The learned Don Lames, Minister Plenipotentiary.
at Brazils, tendered his resignation ; Colonel Battle,
Minister of War during the siege, whose services to the
republic cannot be too highly appreciated, also resigned.
The brave defender of Monte Video, General Pacheco-
Ovis, Plenipotentiary in France, declined to continue to
serve under the new Government.
" The distinguished men, of whose names the Monte
Videans shall aways be proud, disappeared from public
life. Munoz, Tajes, Lamas, Herrara, Pacheco, Diez,
Ellauri, Ferreira, and Vasquez were all neglected by
those who had done nothing for the country of so many

heroes.
" But the public will also remember that the President
Suarez gave all his great fortune to the republic, and
refused the sum of 6,0001. presented to him by the na-
tion, preferrinc, poverty and independence ; this example
was followed by Munoz. General Rivera gave 60,0001..
for educational establishments. Don Lamas and hips
son, Don Andres, also made great sacrifices for their
country. General M. Pacheco-Ovis did the same, and.

treated infamously, and by whom ?—by the ♦very man
who has been obliged to fly for shelter to a French fri-
gate—who never did one act of good service for the
republic. One word from any of these patriotic
individuals already mentioned, would have put an
end to the ambition and intrigue of the party who have
been in power, but they abhorred to shed the blood of
their fellow citizens.
"The following fact is a sufficient proof :—When.
General Pacheco was elevated to the highest position,
onneod '
a and the most flattering fortune presented itself, and hav-
ing no one to resist or Oppose him, one day the Minis-
oletrteoattyhe wßheipchublGeic, naenr:t
tPachecoer eacnoslliedaegreudesd,is signed
without hesitation, resigned his office, and betook him-
self to a voluntary exile, without means of subsistence,
naving previously given up to his country all that he
possessed, and departed from the army, amidst the ac-
clamations of the soldiers and the people, who proclaimed
him their general, and requested him to remain their
leader, but he was deaf to their entreaties.
" Is not this an action worthy of ancient times
" Monte Video, at last tired of the unworthy men
who so long were at the head of the nation, has replaced.
Colonel Battle as the Minister of War, the brave Gent-,
ral Servando Gomez as Minister of Foreign Affairs; and
the learned Don Lamos again represents with honour
his Republic at Rio Janeiro ; and the distinguished
General Riveira rules the country, for the second time,
with the unanimous approbation of his countrymen.
"This remarkable change, for the great benefit of the
Republic, has taken place in the best humour, and in
the most peaceable manner, as things are generally so
done by the good people of Monte Video.
"Being a stranger to the country, and. belonging
,to
no party, you may rely on the truth of my assertions.

THE LABOUR QUESTION AT BURY.-Ft is expected
that to-day 15 of the manufacturing firms will bring their
concerns to a stand until the matter in dispute be set-
tled. On Saturday evening last, there occurred a cir-
cumstance which for several hours endangered the peace
of the town. It is stated that Mr. Boardman, pork-
the crowd continu-
al
y butcher, Fleet-street, Bury, tore a collecting-card be-
longing to the operatives. This circumstance so exas-
perated a number of the operatives that they remained

No further molestation has been attempted.
