is hardly to be expected that the Emperor Don
Pt nao will attempt to re-unite the two Crowns,
howsoever tempted he might be to make the ex-
periment, in order to have a port to which he may
sail, in case a political storm should dissolve
his empire, and erect a republic upon its
ruins. That such an event may happen is cer-
tainly within the score of possibility, but of its
probability we may reasonably doubt, unless it
is hastened by some indiscretion on the part of the
Emperor, and such we should deem any attempt to
retain the Crown of Portugal, as appendant to
or ht union with that of Brazil. Because it
would naturally foment rivalries and jea-
lousies between the two nations, which, in
their issue, might chance to leave Don PEDILo,
not only not an Emperor, but perhaps not
even a King. DON Ahour.r. and the QUEEN, are
not without adherents, and these, without doubt,
have looked forward to the Crown of Portugal,
when in the fullness of time, JOHN VI. was con-

signed to the tomb. That event may now- be
said to have happened, and these parties will
hardly be disposed quietly to resign their expec-
tations, dr permit themselves to be passed over,
when a successor to the throne is wanted. Dos
PEntto, will find it, therefore, to be his interest to
yield all claim, and accept the dominions he now
rules as full indemnification for thole rights with
which, as the eldest son of the late KING, lie is
invested. However blameable his conduct, we
cannot think the claims of DoN Nhouct, can be
overlooked, and it therefore appears to us, that
in him we see the future King of PORTUGAL.

The Messagero Argentin° to. the 31st Decem-
ber, arrived this morning, and brings the annex-
ed intelligence from Buenos-Ayres. AuTio.ts,

the Chief who attacked the Government of the
Banda Oriental, had died in banishment, and
news of the declaration of war by Brazil had
leached Monte Video, active steps had in conse-
quence been taken, with a full determination to
prosecute the wnr with vigour.
Letters to the 3d of January last, received in
town from Buenos Ayrest also say that the Go.
yernment had authorised private( ring against
Brazilian vessels, and had granted letters of
marque for that purpose :--

DEC. 20.—A passenger, who lately arrived at Arroyo de la.
China, affirms, that when he was at Hagula, news was received
there of the death of Don Jose Artigas in banishment. This
man has long been reduced to a suite of insignificance, and his
death is of course without influence; but the pernicious fruits
of his example has unfortunately hem abundant, and he will
always be remembered as the first in the career of disorder.
DEC. 23.—M. John George Vermoelen was yesterday ac-
knowledged in his official character of Consul of his Majesty
the King of the Netherlands in the United Provinces of
Rio de ht Plata.—By letters from 31onte Video we learn,
that the Emperor of Brazil has declared war against the Repub-
lic of the United Provinces. This declaration was brought by
the Brazilian frigate the Paula, which cast anchor in that port
‘m the 17th, after a voyage of eight dart. It was to sail on the
20th with the other ships of the Brazilian squadron, to blockade
Buenos Ayres. The Viscount de la Laguna hid received or.
tiers to march to the Rio Grande, to direct the war hostilities,
which may therefore be expected to commence with activity on
both sides without delay. The National Government has taken
every means for defending the country, and every thing indi-
cates that the hour is at hand when the cause of liberty and jus.
tice will triumph fur ever on the whole American Continent.
On the sth and 12th two divisions, amounting together to
1210 men, marched from Villadel Peron* to join the army on
the Uraquay, and must by this time have reached their desti-
bstion. _ .

Dm. W.—By communications from the Commissioners ap-
pointed to conclude peace with the Caciques of the South, dated
the 13th inst., from Bahia Blanca, we learn that treaties had
been concluded with the Caciques who assembled at that place,
and that on the 20th they would come to this capital by land to
receive the ratifications.
By communications from the Government of Codobar we
learn also, that the Commissioners of all the Provinces, assem-
bled in Rio Cuarto, were going to La Laguna del Guanaco to
conclude treaties.
IVe certainly wish that some means may be found to pre-
aerve the open country from the alarms to which it is conti-
nually subject ; but we think that good regiments of cavalry
are the best security for every treaty with the savages.
On the 25th the Government received dispatches from Gene-
ral The enemy had not yet made any movement
of consequence. The Oriental Army continues to increase in
numbers and to improve In discipline, and was soon to act in
concert with the army commanded by General Rodriguez.
The mail from Chile arrived yesterday, bringing Journals to
Ist December. The expedition against Chiloe sailed the 28th
of November, under the command of General Freire, Supreme
Director of the Republic. The following ships of war belong
to it r--

The Isabella frigate, Admiral Blanco; the Lantura frigate,
Captain Bell; the Independencia frigate, Captain Cobbett;
the A9uilea frigate, Captain Wolter ; and the Galvarino brig,
Captain Winter.—The Independencia corvette, which sailed
the 25th, was to join the expedition.—(Aferragero Argentin()
iv Dec. 31.)

The Milan Gazette, received this day, contains
only the following paragraph worth extracting :

NAPLES, FEB. 2t
Letters from Rome say, that Messrs. Sebascino del Mato
and F. Capranesi, dealers in antiques, having undertaken some
excavations 34 miles from Rome on the Via Salaria, and for-
tunately discovered some statues of the Muses, much resem-
bling those found at the close of the 18th century in the Tiber.
tine territory. They are, Melpomene (the head of which was
-found last year), Polihymnia, Erato, and (it is thought) Cal-
liope. Among them was a superb- semi-colossal head, sup-
posed to be that of Sappho, well deserving to be in such
.company. Two other statues were found, but it is not agreed
what they represent ; one may be Urania. Great hopes are
entertained of finding the remaining daughters of Jupiter and
Mnemosyne.—(Miluti Gazette, March 8.)

A Letter from Buenos Ayres, dated Jan. 3,
was received this morning at Lloyd's Coffee.
House, of which the following in an extract

" Part of the squadron cruizing betwixt the Ortiz and Point
Indis have already sent in several vessels to Monte Video that
were bound to this port, and Admiral Lobo is daily expected
up here.
" This Government has passed a Law authorizing Privateer-
ing against the Brazillians, and granting Letters of Marque for
that purpose. In compliance with the 2d Article of the Decla-
ration, vessels loading here are to-day clearing out at the Custom
House."

A report was in circulation this afternoon, of
an Express from Russia having arrived in town,
