THE BRAZILS.
FA LMOUT 11, OCT. 21.—Her Majesty's packet Pen-
guin, Lieutenant Swainson commander, arrived this
morning with the Brazil mail, having sailed from Rio
de Janeiro the 2d: Bahia, 11th; and Pernambuco, 17th
ult. She brings a small freight, and the following
passengers, viz., Mr. and Mrs. Herring and eight
children, Mr. and Mrs. Lane and two children, and
Messrs. Robertson, Durand, M'Carthy, and Krabbe.
The exchange ruled at Rio at 27kd. ; Bahia. at 27d.;
and at Pernambuco, at 27d.
There is little or no news of importance by this
opportunity, either from the River Plate or the
Brazils. Prior to the sailing of the Penguin from
Rio, dates to the 20th of August from Monte Video
had been received there, in which it was stated that
the city could not hold out much longer, particularly
with the internal broils and troubles which prevailed.
Oribe was soon expected to take possession, and it '
was hoped that that object would be attained by nego
elation rather than force. In the Brazils things
were quiet, although at Pernambuco it was feared
some disturbance would be manifested on the day
after the Penguin left, as the elections for deputies
would take place on the 18th of September.
The coffee and sugar market remained steady at the
different ports, though business was not brisk.
The Swift packet, from Falmouth, sailed from
Bahia for Rio on the 10th of September, and the fol-
lowing British men • of-war were lying at Rio on the
packet's sailing, viz.:—The Eagle, Crescent, Griffon,
the Sattellite.

The following is an extract of a letter from Rio,
dated September 1 :
Last evening the Satellite 'came in from in the
river, bringing news of the insubordination of a bat-
talion of the defending army in Monte Video, com-
manded by Larranja. This event might have pro-
duced the abrupt termination of the war, but it was
checked without bloodshed by the prudential act of
the Government. In other respects, matters in that
quarter were without alteration."
In reference to our market, coffee is dearer, espe-
cially the higher qualities. Superior, 3,000 dolls. to
3,150 dolls, per arraba ; good firsts, 2,850 dolls. to
2,950 dolls. ; good seconds, 2,500 dolls. to 2,530

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Oct. 22.
(Before Mr. Commissioner EvANs.)
There were several meetings for the choice of as-
signees in this court, but the three following alone
deserve mention :

Brown, merchants, was appointed assignee; in the
case of W. 11. Lewis, of Ludgate-street, shoe manu-
facturer, Mr. Swift, a shoe dealer in Hatton-garden,
was appointed assignee ; and in the matter of G. W.
Jones, in which debts to a large amount were proved,
Mr. Laxton, of Pall-mall East, surveyor, and Mr.
Thomas Martin, of 21, Whitechapel• road, silk manu-
facturer, were chosen assignees. Mr. Jones was a

(Before Mr. Commissioner GOULBURN.)
IN THE BANKRUPTCY OF WILLIAM THOMAS.

The last examination of this bankrupt, who was a
publisher and newspaper advertisement agent in
Catherine-street, Strand, was further adjourned.

IN THE BANKRUPTCY OF STIRLING AND STIRLING

The bankrupts, who were slate merchants at Strat-
ford, in Essex, came up for their certificates. They
were the inventors of a peculiar description of fuel,
for which a patent has been granted. The Commis-
sioner observed, that this patent had been offered for
sale, and a person agreed to give a considerable sum
for it, but owing to the pressure in the money market
had not yet paid in the amount to the official assignee.
From a review of the whole of the transactions in
which the bankrupts had been engaged, and from the
official report, it gave him pleasure to say that both
bankrupts had conducted themselves like honest men.
He would grant the certificates.
