FROM SOUTH AMERICA.

By the ship Hope, arrived at this port
from Rio Janeiro, we have received file
Of the Gaze,a de Rio, up TO the 3lst of Au-
gust. On perusal, we find that they con-
tain but little interesting news; Icing
mostly filed up with addresses directed to
the Prince Regent by the local authori-
ties of different towns and townships in
the provinces OF St. Paul, Rio Grande do
Sui. Rio de Janeiro and Mnas Geraes, in
which they protest their loyalty and their
adherence to the cause OF the Prince he
gent. These addresses appear to an un-
concerned observer very much like those
presented to Napoleon Bonaparte by ar
most all the towns OF France, after his re-
turn from the disastrous campaign OF MOS,
COW, in 1913, having been suggested ana
even dictated by his private agents. II IS
however, worth notice, that the papers
do not contain any addresses from all the
other Provinces Of Brazil, except sollta-
~ one from the Jmta do Governo OF Fer
nanbuco, and thisis worded IN rather am-
bigaous terms. :,
We remark aho manifesto OF the
Prince Regent to the friendly Govern.
ments and nations, dated August oth' out
il is too long to be inserted IN our paper.
Its pufport is to expose the reasons wnicn
have induced the Prince to act against ,ne
decisions of the Cortes at Lisbon, ana 10
declare the nominal independence Of bra'
zil. protesting, however, that ne wants 10
maintain the union with Portugal, anu ~
recognize the King bis father, as the so'e
supreme chief of the executive power OF
the whole nation. document, be-
sides some just reasons Of complaint so
the part Of the Brszilians, which have
however been removed by the later decl-
siops OF the Cortes al Lisbon, contains ma.
ny very futile arguments, and above all
we are very sorry TO remark therein seve'
raj expressions, which appear to be bor-
rowed from, if not indirectly dictated ny
the Holy Alliance such as : Legitimate
authority of the Prince" and that the
King OF Portugal isa prisoner OF state 10
Lisbon, without that free will which any
legitimate constitution ought not 10 deny
to true monarch"
In the above mentioned addresses we
observe also some expressions such as
/" humble subjsc,s'') which We think en-
tirely unbecoming oil people, who pre-
tend to liberal constitutional principles.

We last evening received, through the
politeness of Captain Curtis, OF the ship
Vermont file of London papers TO the
evening Of the 10th September. In add,-
ton to The extracts which we gave yester-
day, we have selected the following intel
Iigence from our latest papers:
The government of Corfu had ordered
the usual sanatory regulations to be put in
force, in consequence OF the appearance
of contagious disorder at Paramlta and
Janina, supposed to be the plague.
