UalilnaS. ana destroyed ABOUT zOO men
who guarded it. They were here join
ed by the Militia and many of the inhab-
itants and procured plenty of provisions
and horses. Requesting the river they
obtained possession of the person Of
Frutus Rivero, the Brazilian command
er of the country, by siralagem where
upon he Immediately deserted the i'm
perial cause and joinedithem.
The insurrection appears TO be gen
eral; the government and inhabitants
at Monte Video were in g:sat conster-
nation; and IA number of inhabitants
and soldiers at Pernambuco and Rio
Janeiro had been arrested on suspicion
of disaffeclion.
Extract Of a letter from a gentleman at
Rio de Janeiro, TO has friend IN this city,
dated Nag 20th, 1876" We have an
arrival from Monte Video in 7 days,
bringing accounts of the Banda Oriental
having hoisled the patriot hag,-sup-
posed to be that of Buenos Ayres. Mon
te Video, however still remains faith
full TO his Imperial Majesty. Allthe out
posts were taken by surprise, and the
Brazilian troops made prisoners, and
started off for Buenos Ayres, before they
we're aware of what was doing. The
Orientalists were near succeeding 10 an
attempt to get possession of Monte Vi
dec, but LIE Ger was informed of the
revolution just in time 10 save it, by
closing the gates as the enemy was APP
preaching. The Emperor is embark
ing 1900 troops TO strengthen lie Ger ;
and he has on the river, and on the
way, considerable naval force, so that
the patriots can have little hopes Of re-
ducing the town. 10 case Buenos Ayres
has had any hand in this business, there
will probably be declaration of war
on the part of Brazil, and the former
will suffer most unless, as it is surmised,
Bolivar is al the bottom of the thing,
and has an understanding with Buenos
Ayres, for the latter TO cause a rupture
with his Imperial Majesty, when the
Liberador may be justified in gratifying
his passion of pursuing the war against
Royal power; and some prophets be-
lieve he will in time march from one
end Of Brazil TO the other, and put their
public affairs on another footing. 1t i:
apprehended the northern disconnected
provinces will become unruly again, as
soon as the River Plate intelligence
reaches them, in which case the Emper
or will have sufficient business TO engage
his attention" I'd, ADJ.
A letter dated Buenos Ayres, May
9th, received at Baltimore, furnish u
The following information.
The war in Upper Peru is at length
closed, by one of Olaneta's colonies wht
deserted him, carrying a large part o
his force. A battle ensued between
them, 10 which Olaneta was killed
time of the action, Gen. Sucre was il
Olaneta's rear, and had already obtain
ed possession of Potosi, but arrived 10,
late 10 assist in the action. 1t is beIiev
ed That Olaneta was killed by some O
his own party, as he was the first per
son who fell at the commencement o
the action. Upper Peru is one of tht
richest provinces in this part of SoutI
America.
1.-THE last accounts from the Band
Oriental state that Gen. LaviIija, who
at the head of the revolutionary move
ment in that quarter, has upward Of on
thousand men under his command. Gen
Lecor, the commander at Monte Video
has sent out 400 men TO dispense them
but if they come in contact with Lsvili
ia, they will either join him or he vii
take them prisoners. Lecor has n,
other cavalry, his German troops vii
do well enough to defend fortified pla
ces, but they cannot expect to oppos,
the countrymen on horseback with an
prospect of success.
"There cannot be doubt that thi
Government is at the bottom Of thi
movement, and will support Lavilija
A law was yesterday passed by the Con
gress, authorizing the executive to raist
an army Of 5000 nen--so you may cal
culate TO certainty that there will b.
a rupture between Buenos Ayres ant
Brazil.
