From the M4v York Evening Post, November Is.

BRAZIL.-By Pernambuco papers received at
Boston to the 1st OF October, it appears that the
adherents Of the Portuguese government in Brazil,
in consequence of the late counter revolution in
Portugal, had entered into conspiracy to overthrow
the present system, and restore absolute monarchy.
The governors at arms in the provinces OF Paraba
and Pernambuca both implicated to the affair,
land had suborned part oil the troops OF the line TO
assist them In the former place, the Brazilian
patriots turned out, and defeated this daring project,
by attacking the rebels, so of whom they killed and
wounded, and took 20 prisoners, among whom was
the governor, who was Immediately sent off to Rio
Janeiro for trial. While these proceedings were
going on at Paraiba, the inhabitants ofPernambuco,
suspectng similar plot to exist there assembled
in body, and resolved to anticipate the conspirators
lby arresting, and shipping the governor to Rio,
which was accomplished without Observation-Disclosures
animosity existed in the Brazs against the Poru.
guese, and it was expected they would all be sent
out of the country, as had been done with the roya
list Spaniards in the republic of Colombia The
writers in the Pernambuco papers are far from be-
ing satisfied with the proceedings OF the congress
lat Rio Janeiro, which they consider too much in
huenced by the executive power. They state that
the whole OF the deputies for the congress is 100,
that two thirds otthat number, 67 are necessary 10
make quorum, and that "a members only have
met and proceeded to business. Hitherto they
once in awhile insnuaie that he is young and in
Inexperienced, and have been much offended at his
comparing, in late proclamation despo,ism with
democracy, observing, in answer TO such an outrage,
that the North Americans were democrats, and a
superior set of men to the vassals of any despo.
They hope that their congress will not frame
Iconstitution la RusSe that is, such one the
grand despot OF the north of Europe has given to
unfortunate Poland
1t would seem that Pernambuco and the other
northern provinces of Brazil are for such form of
government as that of the United States, with an
hereditary emperor instead OF an elective President,
and that Rio Janeiro and the southern provinces
were somewhat passive and servile in their
dispositions. iurbide, late emperor of Mexico, is
sometimes brought TO view as an example to chiefs
who suffer vile and corrupt couTtiers to beset and
influence them. Every thing seems to indicate a
change of system in this country, more congenial
with the democratic or republican feelings OF the
Brazlans, than that Of an imperial government.

CAPTURE OF PORTO CABELLO.

Capt. briggs, of the schooner John, from Lagui-
ra, states, that Porto CahelIo taken by storm on
the 9TH November, by General Paez, and the forts
capitulaed "a hours after to Col. Corea. Captain
Murray, of the Colombian Navy, had reached La
gura with the above intelligence.
The day the John came out Capt. Fenton, of the
Harriet Newell, of this port, arrived, having been
captured by pirates off the coast, who took vessel
and CARGO and put the captain and crew into the
long boa, with three gallons Of wa,er-they were
out four nights and three days, Capt +. states they
must all have persisted, but for ons OF the crew who
had few lines in his clothes. The prisaeer Cen.
Soublette, Capt. Mogg idge, immediately sailed IN
pursuit of the pirate. A number Of American and
English gentlemen volunteered on board the priva,

Mr.. JoNls p FArRLAMB ofhis Borough has discovered
important improvement for saving and reapplyng water
to canal locks for which he has obtained Letters Patient
from the United States
This improvement understand to be follows; the
duplication Of horizontally paroned reservoir oICstern
Ito the side Of the Lock, with valves communicating With
lthe different chambers Of the csern, in the side Of
Lock, and corresponding with those chanbers--ihose
valves constructed to throw open space
Ito each chamber Of the in of from 90
10 square feet according the length Of the Lock- open
Iemptying and from bottom top when filling the Lock
By this improvement the lock will be emptied and filed
much than locks upon the construction, in
consequence Of the large spaces thrown open for the
ter pass from, and the lock- and with perfect
saety In will those valves be be opened with
greater head Of than two chambers when empty
ling, and when filling the lock. Those chambers may
be constructed and reapply almost any given
quantity of the water usually lost This cstern is
entirely different construction from the side locks and side
ponds in in Europe.

perhaps as many as hundred and eighty Members
of the House of Representatives.
The first business in the House of Representa-
tives will be the choice ola Speaker, or presiding
officer of that body. The gentlemen spoken OF for
that office are all on the ground, and in excellent
health, some reports to the contrary notwithstan-
ding
In the Senate, Mr.. GA1LLARD, of South Carolina,
will take the Chair as President pro tempore in the
absence OF the Vice President. The other officers
of that body are chosen during pleasure, so that,

Dreadful Fire.-About O'Clock on Wednesday
morning. dreadful fire broke in the warehouses,
commonly known as Booths Warehouses, Wap-
ping, the property oil Thos. Booth, Esq. which
ended in their entire destruction-The loss Of prop
erty, upon this lamentable occasion, has been I'm
mense, but the amount cannot as yetbe ascerianed,
1.-THE very lowest estimate mentioned is 80 ,000t J we
understand that $4,000 bushels of grain, and up
wards Of 1000 bags of cotton, have, together with
other vauables fallen prey TO this desti ucve ell
ement. About O'Clock part of the wall at the
south east corner fell upon the roof OF house in
Barter street, and partially laid it in ruins. At
O'Clock in the afternoon, the centre we'll the
house fell with tremendous crash
We are happy to say, that the adjoining ware
houses of Messrs Geo. Duncan & Son have esca-
ped without any injury. Fortunately for the neigh
borhood of Barter street, Hurst st. and Campbell
street, the wind was southeast, otherwise the
consequence would have been much more calam-
tous. These warehouses were the highest in town.

Madrid, Sent. %,


The day before yesterday the disgusting ceremo-
ny of burying an efigy of Rego took place. There
is a species of bsseness Of mlnd in this triumph
over unfortunate courage well worthy the vile po-
pulace of Madrid, and Of their proper allies, the
French soldiers. The latter laughed heartily at
the farce, and did take the least step to prevent
it. The ceremony commenced at seven O'Clock in
the evening, at the Puerta de Sol and public fun
Ictionaries mixed in the procession. Several Monk,
profaned most unworthily the words Of the Bible,
and sung in butfoon like kind OF style the DE pro-
funds, and the Requiem eternanS. When this mser
able orgie was finished, the crowd, began to cry
|" PiHage the shops, Jor all the merchants are ne
groes," and in fact some doors were broken open in
streets Del Carmen and DE la .u0ntera. But the
Monks checked the fury of the robbers, by crying
out that the pillsge should take place on the day
that Riego entered the town.-1hus also they talk
lof the great day when Ferdinand is to return-a
day when of blood will flow in the streets Of
Madrid; but what spectacle can there be more wor-
thy OF him, and more agreeable in his eyes {?
