BUENOS-A.YRIN AND BRAZIL.

BUENOS-AYRES, DEC. 23.
The enemy on the frontier is preparing to
make an inroad on the plain, for the purpose,
which has already been sufficiently indicated, of
seizing all the cattle and horSes which may be
met with, and carrying them off to the 'Ri'oGrande.. On the 15th, 4£17 of the enemy ap.
peared in Chuy, and directed their course to.
wards the interior. We have no doubt that the
national troops will soon fall in with them, and
that they will quickly teach the despots how
they ought to conduct themselves towards men
who are animated by the flame of liberty.—The
following Proclamation has been printed in this
city
DON JUAN ANTONIO LAVALLEJA, nutoAntra.oovEuxon
AND CAPTAIN-GENERAL OF THE ORIENTAL PROVINCE,
TO Tut: INDADITANTS THEREOF :
" When I landed on the shores or my native country from
the ominous'yolte of the despot of Brazil, l r.died solely on the
noble enthusiasm which inflame 4 your breasts against the
unjust usurper. Without preparation, without resources, and
confiding entirely in your energy and valour, I found myself
victorious, on the 24th of September, and the 12th of October,
in the Rincon doles Gallinas, and Cuchilla del Sarandi. What
glory did yen not acquire on those brilliant days ! The liberty
of the Oriental province was sealed with the blood of some of

her valiant sons ; and , alarm and terror was diffused through
the whole territory of Brazil. Nevertheless, the cruel Pedro
who again wishes to see the blood of his subjects flow, has de-
termined to invade this province, to lay waste our plains, and
exterminate their inhabitants.

" People of the Eastern Province ! The moment has ar-
rived when your duty requires you to take up arms. Think On
the unhappy fate 'that awaits you if you yield to disgraceful
apathy. just vengeance once wore inspires you with pattio.

tic enthusiasm. We are forced to engage in war, and we
must make our enemies feel its.fatal consequences. The tyrant
dreads the resistance of free men, and be assured that his
cowardly slaves will not easily forget the charge of Sarandi.
If our resolution be unanimous, we shall speedily conclude
the campaign, in which I will, us I have always done, accom-
pany you, and joyfully' become your chief and companion.
" LAVALLEJA.
" Head-quarters, on match, Dec.l9, 11125."

LATEST INTELLUIENCE.
Ry letters from Monte-Video, we learn that the Emperor
of Brazil has declared war against the Republic of the United
Provinces. This -declaration was brought by the Brazillian
frigate Paula, which arrived at the above-mentioned port on
the 17th instant, after a passage of eight days. On the 20th
the frigate is to set sail with the-other vessels of the enemy's
squadron, to blockade Moms-Ayres. Viscount de la Laguna
has received orders to march to Rio Grande, to conduct the war.
It is momentarily expected that hostilities will actively com-
mence on both sides. The National Government has pre-
pared all its means of defence., and every thing seems to pro-
miss that the period has , now arrived when the cause of
liberty and justice will secure an everlasting triumph through-
out the whole American continent.
