not sailed with the father of the child who acted in
the extraordinary pageant, fer we find, in a At-
tached paper, a notice sigr:e I on the 13th of April,
stating that the Ex-Emperor is" two leagues beyor,rl
the bar," and that " the revolution is complete."
In this same paper is inserted a letter from his Rr_
Majesty, addressed to the Brazilian nation, from on
board the vessel which carries him from it for ever.
" I retire," says the Emperor, " to Europe, re-
gretting my country, my children, my friends.
leave objects so dear is touching to the hardest heart,
but to leave them to sustain honour is the greatest,
glory. Farewell country—farewell friends—fares
well for ever !" The proclamation issued by the
President of the National Legislature seems to con-
sider that Brazil was only " called into existence"
on the 7th of April last, when the Emperor abdi-
cated. " Our national existence," says he, "is
now begun. Brazil belongs to the Brazilians, and
is free. We have now a country—we have now a
Monarch, the symbol of our union and of the in-
tegrity of the empire?' When the President was
thus speaking lie was not aware of the events at
Bahia. We have left ourselves no further space for
pursuing the reflections which these evelea naturally
suggest, or speculat ng on the retilt,k -of the revolu-
tion which has thus cce,irred in the only portion of
South America that has hitherto enjoyed the sem-
blarico of regular government. The following is the
representation made to the Emperor by the Deputies,
to Which we have above alluded
REPRESENTATION TO THE EMPEROR,
" SENIIOII,—The undersigned representatives of• the
nation, profoundly afflicted at the events which have btkrn
place in this capital, especially on the 13th of the present
month, on occasion of the rejoicings which had for theirf
object not so much the solemnizing the happy return 0
your Imperial and Constitutional Majesty, us the insulting
and maltreating the Brazilians,—friends of liberty end
the country,—who were, in fact, covered with opprobrium
by the Lusitanian party, which has again risen in the
midst of us, with cries of c Live the Portuguese, and cot:e-
mitting seditious: and anarchical acts and cutragrs of every
description, of which the victims have been patriots
whose blood has been shed by a perfidious and eremedi-
tated aggression, —by men who in all tie delirium of their
crimes, have been cleerly protected by the Government
and subaltern authorities, of tririch they themselves boast,
thus compromising with incredible audacity the august and
respectable name of your Imperial and Constitutional
Majesty ;--consider it to be their duty as citizens, on
atom the suffrages of their feilow-countrymen have been
bestowed, as good Brazilians deeply interested in the
preservation of the honour and dignity of the nation
and in the stability of the constitutional throne, to raise
their voice in the august presence of your Imperial and
Constitutional 31ajesty, laying before you this brief pic-
ture of the melancholy situation to which the affairs of the
nation are brought, and urgently requesting the adoption
of the necessary measures, as well for the establishment of
order and public tranquillity, as for redress to Brazil,
offended and wounded in the most delicate point of. na-
tional honour,—measures which need not deviate from
the ordinary circle of regal authority, but by the regular
execution of which the authors and accomplices 6f the ag-
gressions may be punished, aral the authorities who, by
notorious connivance or apathetic indifference, have left
free action to assassins and disturbers of public tranquillity,
may be rendered responsible.
" Senhor, the seditious continue, under the shade of
the august name of your Imperial and Constitutional Ma.
testy, to prosecute their dark designs. The outrages in-
crease, national spirit suffers, and no peop'e could to-
lerate without resistance that foreigners should impose
upon them in their own country an ignominious yoke.
Foreigners who have the honour of being the subjects of
Don Miguel, and others who are the subjects of
the Senhora Donna Maria 11., chiefly composed those
groups which in the nights of the 13th and 14th vilified
the Brazilian name, and alarmed and wounded many of
our fellow-citizens, under the pretext of their being fe-
deralists—a political question, the decision of which
depends upon the judgment and deliberation of the legi-
slative power—never on the senseless and sanguinary fury
of ignorant men, whose understandings are besides . per-
verted by traitorous suggestions. The Brazilians so cruelly
offended—the Braz.lians, who are threatened with partial
and unjust imprisonments—cherish in their breasts the
most well-founded and profound indignation, the conse-
quences of which it is impossible to calculate, if the
Government do not henceforth repress similar disorders,
and take measures to redress, as far as possible, the
insult which the nation has received. The undersigned
representatives expect this to be done; for they , con..
fide in the wisdom and patrioesm of your Imperial
and Constitutional Majesty in despite of the traitors
who surround your throne, but who cannot have
sufficient power to stifle the complaints which now issue
from the ulcerated hearts of the friends of their country
and justice. Circumstances are urged, and the least delay
may, in such a case, he fatal. The confidence which
ought to be placed in the Government is- almost entirely
extinguished, and if the aggressions against which the un-
dersigned make this representation should remain 112:-
punished, such neglect will amount to a declaration that it
is for the Brazilian people themselves to avenge, by the
means in their own power, the stain so unworthily cast on
their honour and high character.
" This language, Senhor, is frank and loyal.
your Imperial and Constitutional Majesty listen to it,
with the conviction that empires are never saved by flat-
terers, but by those who have sufficient force of character
to speak the truth to Princes, even when it is least pleas-
ing to them. Public order, the tranquillity of the State,
and the throne itself,—all will be in danger, if the repre-
sentation which the undersigned now address to done
Majesty should not be attended to, and its prayers cent-
pletely satisfied.
" Rio de Janeiro, March 17."
Signed by twenty-four Members of the Chamber of
Representatives. 4,
