From the .4urora Of Brdrii,' of Bahia, of the

! capt. Beard of the Brig Amazon:
we have received very authentic intclli-
gencc relative to the hcsh attempts OF the
Count Dos .3rcos, who has fallen suddenly
from the height of his proud elevation. This
Count had for some time shewn himself the
enemy of the Constitution, with view
% gaining favor with the Prince Royal. BY
the revolution of 26th February. iThomas
Antonio fell, and the king having sworn to the
Constitution, retired to Lisbon This Count
was appointed prime minister in spite of the
wishes otthc people, who did not like him.
| As soon as ha saw the king out of the
barber with I'll! those who were against
nm, he began 10 betray the country and the
Prince, by his intrgles. He sought some
Partizans, and in conjunction with them he
tried to separate the Brazils from Portugal,
and 10 establiSha government of his own. He
corrupted some of the officers belonging TO the
I battalion of Chasscurs ; he took those of
whom he was certain--scnt away the others
to Lisbon, and ny this committed the crime OF
high treason, seeking to gain the Electors and
the people who We're in the Commercial
square and 1t the place called 'Iadrugaiu de
i1dScoG- lie came there to declare himself
chei, las second Nero and to take the rcins
OF the government into his own hands.
After this Internal tragedy the Count was
| ful of Joy, rs Nero at the sight of the burning
OF Rome and though it became necessary 10
dispatch some friends, as for example Il cele-
brated bastard of the Count of .Sdrgcdq Tar
game, the posscssor of a great revenue aud IN
nocent of every thing which cali,mny had re-
ported against hint is believed, with some
foundation, that ne had kept a correspondence
with Pn'nor!buco, and that lie wanted to gain
Unie to attack EafiG by forming his despotism
upon IFS destruction ard ruin
The good people Of Rio, however, waited
Tor the moment 80 stop his Don Quixo.ic ac-
tons. The bait2lion, ashamed of the bloody
action IN which he had involved them, hoped
that some favorable event would give them an
occasion To save the prisoners, which the
Count Intended To sacrifice, and to proclaim
him IN his true coOrs.

ihe Prince knew the opinion of the troops
and of the people. The prisoners were set
at liberty with much JOY, and The Count dis
gracefully disappeared.
Inc count Dos .HrcoS on arriving here had
the Impndencc TO demand permission to land
Tor the purpose OF embracing his friends. His
EXceiency the Governor informed him that
ne would rtn the risk of being insted by the
people, and ordered the vessel to sail. He
passed the night on board waiting for high
wafer. Many people went 10 4 place where
'hey thought he would land, for the purpose
OF putting him TO death To lvenge themselves
The portrait of the Count, which was in the
room OF the Commercial Place, was torn
down with Indignation as soon as his projects
were known-a people nlamed with the sa-
crcu cause "i constitutional liberty, could not
sec without indignation the ctligy of an IN
grateful person, who had metliia,cd the ruin of
city which had bestowed upon him so ma
ny honorS and dignities. In fine, the Consii-
tutioa IS sworn to again new ministers are APP
pointed, and al! is tranquil.
