BRAZIL

Advices had been received in New York from Rio
Janeiro to the 17th May. They stated, that, on the 27th
tilt., Mr. Ouseley, the new Briti.h minister to Buenos
A yces, had proceeded from Monte Video on the 27th ult.,
with two steam-frigates, and that the French minister had
left a few days previously to the date of the advices in a
frigate. It was believed that the war would be terminated
immediately. Gen. Riveria had arrived at Rio Janeiro
from. Rio Grande.

Another letter of the 17th of May states :—" The Rio
Plate racket, just arrived, informs us that the strict
blockade at Monte Video was not acknowledged by the
English commander. Mr. Ouseley had arrived on the
26th ultimo, and proceeded to Buenos Avres on the Nth.
Small soles of flour to the monopoly were making at 10
to 101 dollars. Nothing had transpired respecting a
foreign intervention. At Buenos Ayres, 21st, business
was quite neglected. Hides scarce at 10 to 10 dollars
on board."

By letters received in Liverpool, yesterday, we
learn, that, on the 25th of May, Riveria had arrived at
Rio Janeiro. The subject of his mission was unknown.
The Crane, packet, had sailed.

sued by Messrs. Wright and Lewin (f New York.

business transacted in cott is, at co: tinually itnprovin•c prices;
and although perhaps no aavarice, equal to the change we have
made in our quotations. has been generally declared, it is not
possible to obtain strict classifications below the figures.
The business the last few days has been more limited than
previously, but the market closes firm.

EXCITA:ICGES have been in only moderate demand for the
present opportunity, and some good bills on England have been
sold at 1 g

FREIGHTS are very dull at onr quotations, and some vessels
have been compelled to a cept a fraction less to fill up.
