been employed, as well as reproaches, with the
view of putting down the insurgents ; and the
promptitude with which the former have been.
taken, is a presuimption that they will not prove
unavailing. An expedition, consisting of two
thousand men, sailed on the 25th of May ; that
is, fifteen days after the vessel which brought
the news, had sailed from Monte Video- The
Emperor reviewed the troops before their em-
barkation ; and it is stated that they manifested
the greatest satisfaction at being selected for the
service. His Majesty also harangued them on the
occasion ; and at the conclusion of the address,
the troops 2 it is said, broke out into acclamations
of
." Long live the Emperor and Empress !"
the latter being present. An Order of the
Day was published shortly after, in which
the Emperor expresses his satisfaction at the
discipline of the .troops, and at the alac-
rity they displayed to .go on the expedition.
As the other troops appeared to regret that they
were not chosen, they are assured that they are
equally entitled to--his Majesty's approbation ;
and it is said in' conclUSlOn, " that the Army
must feel persuaded that those who go are not
chosen as being better than the others ; nor are
those who remain behind to be considered
as worse than the others." This is all well
enough ; • and- we are glad to see the Em-
peror affect so •popular a deportment. But
it strikes us, that his popular airs,' like
an umbrella, are reserved for unfavourable
weather; and if we are right in our conjecture,
their virtue is well spent by this time. In the
mean time, it is clear, from the dramatic charac-
ter of this representation, that the events near
Monte Video have inspired the Court of Rio with
the most serious alarm. We fear, too, that this
alarm- was any thing but groundless, as the Re-
publican 'spirit is probably more prevalent
amongst the Brazilians than attachment to the
present order of things. The Emperor, from his
education, as well as from his expectations to suc-
ceed his father on the despotic throne of Porto-
' gal, cannot discharge, con amore, the functions of
Constitutional Ruler of the Brazils ; and it is
likely enough that he gives now and then
signs of his impatience at the restrictions to
which his authority is now subject. It requires
no spirit of prophecy to foretell the issue ; though,
should the expedition against the insurgents
near Mike Video succeed, its eclat might enable
Don Pedro..to retain his Imperial title longer
than appearances seemed to justify. The naval
part of the expedition is entrusted to Admiral
Rodrego Lobo, and the military to Lieut.-Ge-
neral Francisco de Paulo Magesse.

This pressure of Money Stock on the Market
twas only slight4,,felt on Saturday, not being a transfer day at
the Bank, so that the bargains for time have been on terms ra-
her higher than Friday. In the 3A and '4 per: Cent. Annuities
there has been an improvement oft_about.i per cent., and they
reached quotations quite as high as they had been sold during
any other part of the week, and investments In each-are the
more desirable, as they are much less' subject to' fluctuation
than the other securities.. • There is now no difference in the
value of Consols for Money and for the next Settling Day,
which is on Friday ; they opened on Saturday morning at
8911, rose to 90, and remained firm at this quotation up to the
clOse of business. In Consols for the. October :Account the
advance was from 90 to 991 ; but there was little doing for either
Accounts, excepting in options, particularly.for.October, which
was confined chiefly to the jobbers, and were obtained on much
lower terms, in consequence of the extreme 'steadiness in the
prices during the. week. The premium on. - Exchequer
Bills of both descriptions fluctuated during. the day be-
tween 19 and '24. India Bonds were rather higher than Friday.
A few of the newest projects, chiefly i‘ie Steam Navigation
Shares, had engrossed attention in the Foreign Market on satur-
day, but- most-of them--are too insignificant to' deserve notice,
the promoters appearing to have -no other object in view than
to force them up to a fictitious price, and to leave them 'in- the
hands of the public, who lose not only the instalment, bilt,the
premium they give for than. The Anglo-Mexican Shares
were very heavy on Saturday ; Friday the only quotation was
1071. 10s., but on Saturday they-were sold at 1001., including
the instalments of 30/. on each Share. The Castello Shares
have risen from 111.- ss. 'to 131. per share, and the Equitable
Mining Shares from. 3/. 10s. to 5/. There has been a greardeal
doing in. the -British Rock and Patent Salt Shares, but the pre-
mium has undergone but little fluctuation. The Imperial
Plate Glass Shares have also risen from 51. to 101;. per share;
but left off'. rather lower. Netherland Patent Salt Shares have
been in demand at 61. 10s. and 7/. per share—We learn, by
the expresses from ,Paris, that there had been a slight-elevation
in French Stock .there on Thursday,--but here there has been
scarcely any thing doing in- the 3 per Cents., which were offered
freely at 72. 00., without.any.purchasers. The Rentes opened
at 102. 50., but the nearest quotation at the close of business
leas 102. 75. Spanish:Bonds have not experienced a variation•
beyond per cent:,- and'-are nominally 22i for money, and
22. to 24: for .the end of the month. Greek-Scrip opened at
14 discount, rose t0.12i,. but left off rather lower. The Bonds
are steady at 41. and 414.—(Md.)
