RIO DE JANEIRO, AUGUIT 5.

Since the declaration of 'independence of Bra-
zil, the subject whether the executive should or
should not have an absolute veto in the promul-
gation of the laws has been discussed in all the
periodical publications, and is a matter upon
which much difference has existed.- - Some time
prior to the -late changes. -in the Ministry, the.
Deputy Aranja Lima propoied in the Assembly
the project of a law, by which-the decrees of the
present Assembly should be executed by the
Executive, even although the Emperor refused
his sanction. The project was finally discussed,.
and carried by a considerable majority, on the
'29th of last month. The Emperor has declared,
that notwithstanding the vote of the Assembly,
he will sanction and execute -such acts only as
meet with his approbation. The assembly, on
the other hand, are determined to put him to the
test, by preparing several decrees for his signa-
ture ; and should he persist in his declaration, it
is feared the causequeece will be serious.
For some time past the Emperor has been
very assiduous in his attentions to' the military,
and probably calculating upon their assistance ;
and, animated by the accounts lately received of
a counter-revolution having been effected in Por-
tugal, it is conjectured- that he will attempt to
establish an absolute veto' by military force, and
thus run the risk of dissOliing-the 'present As-
sembly. The result Of such it proceeding is ob-
vious. Should the Emperor fail in his attempt,
there is little doubt but a Republican Govern-
ment will be established; and _ should he be suc-
cessful, a total disunion of. the provinces, and
consequently a system of anarchy and confusion,
will take place.
There seems to be an inclination on the part of
the Government to miite this country to Portugal;
but to such an arrangement insurmountable obsta-
cles present themselves. The Assembly is de-
cidedly hostile to the measure : the Emperor
is proud of his new title, and would not be
easily persuaded to descend from the throne. The
seat of empire must, of necessity, be in Brazil ;
and the interests of the two countries are so much
in opposition, that the most which could be ex-
pected would be.a favourable commercial treaty.
Something of this nature is certainly in agitation,
as the Cazigue, a very fast sailing brig of war, is
ready for sea, and victualled for 60days. There
is little doubt but she will sail in a few days for
Lisbon.

I t is very probable that in all this month some
very important political. changes will take place
in this country, which will be highly prejudicial
to our commerce, and completely blast the hopes
we entertained of a constitution being formed
upon a liberal and permanent basis.
