Rio DE JANEIRo, Dec. 9. A change of
Ministry took place few days ago much to
the discontinue of the Portuguese party. of
whom the old was composed, and whose
councils have been of great injury to the
country. A plot by them was in agitation.
to declare the Emperor absolute but the
Marquis Barbacena and some others, inter-
ferlng and demonstrating with the Emperor
upon the improperly, as well as danger, in
attempting any thing of the kind, an imme-
date stop was put to it. All the ministers
were dismissed, except Calmon, of the
Treasury, who is now the Minister of the
Empire Barhacena is in the Treasury for
short time, and the others are all of the Bra
lillian party. Much is owing to the new EN-
press, who is warm friend of Brazil.
She is much liked, is said to be woman of
talents, and to have great influence over
the Emperor. This is considered death
blow to the Portuguese interest.
A few days since the Emperor, driving
through one of the streets of the city, with
the Empress, the Queen of Portugal and
and the Prince of Leuchtenburg, the horses
took fright and upset the carriage. The
Emperor was taken up senseless, had two
ribs broken, and seriously injured, but to-
day he is considered in fair way of recov-
cry. The Queen is dangerously hurt in the
head. The Prince slightly, and the Empress
aone escaped unhurt. A lady in waiting

Mr.. MDUFFIE's BILL. The decision of
the House of Representatives, to, lay this
new tariff on the table, is generally consid
cred as indicative of the fate of any attempt
that may be made, during the present ses-
sion of congress, to produce any essential
alteration in the tariff of 1928. The ques-
ton has, doubtless, caused some i'll feeling
and will be the means of exciting resent
ment toward the majority from some of the
vindictive opponents of the Protecting Sys-
TEN. 1t will be recollected that the bill of
1928 was made for no other purpose than to
be rejected by the representative from New
England. But they, however, bitter as the
cup was, swallowed the contents, and dis

Our Prophecy. We prophesied some
short time since, that Branch of the Cab
met was TO be Topped off in less than week.
Like all other false prophets, we can only
say that it is no fault of ours that the event
has not taken place.
Seriously-we did not speak unadvisedv
on the subject. That Mr.. Branch intended
land we are not certain that he has even
yetquitted the determination,) to retire from
the Navy Department. will not be denied
nay, we believe it IS fact, that he rendered
his resignation to the President. The con-
sequences of this step were at once seen.
and after consultation, the resignation was
either not accepted, or Mr.. B. was prevail
ed upon to withdraw it. If Mr.. B. had left
his post, total revolution in the Cabinet
would have taken place, and the Calhounists
must have followed him into retirement.
Thus do affairs go on in Washington.
The Cabinet is distracted and divided
even feelings of personal hostility prevail
amongst some of its members.
We believe that Mr.. Branch will perse-
we're in his determination to 90 home. He
is both tired of his situation, and conscious
OF his incompetence. There is nothing of a
public nature to induce him to remain and
private consideration would operate exactly
the contrary way.--Phentr Gazette.

SEVERE CENsURE. President Jackson
has recently sent to Congress bauble re-.
ceived from Bolivar, struck in commemora-
ton Of that military chieftain's escape from
assassination. Not many years ago, Gen.
Jackson made an attack upon the present
Senator Benton and. his brother Jesse. in
Nashville, in which Col. Benton, if his own
printed account of the affair is to be believ-
ed, narrowly escaped being assassinated by
the General. The New Bedford Mercury,
IN noticing the reference Of the Bolivar
medal to committee in Congress, pointed

tacking the eastern states was matured, ell
Their before, or Immediately after, the COM
mencement of the session of Congress.
One proof of it is, that the debate has had
little or no connexion with, OF reference to
the resolution. The plan of operation was,
that Mr.. Benton was to seize the first OPP
portunity to criminate the eastern states,
and to revive ancient preludices and party
animosities. Gen. Hayne was to arouse
the south on the question of slavery, inter
nal Improvement, and the tariff To assist
Gen. Green in filling the Telegraph with
SANDER and detraction, editors were brought
from distant parts of the United States Mr..
Dunlap, from Boston, and Mr.. Hayward,
from Ohio, and others are here. The party
has been greatly disappointed in the num-
Der who have come out in vindication OF
New England; and although the debate
has been protracted TO great length, 9TH
ers will, it is presumed, engage in it. Mr.
Holmes of Maine, and Barton of Missouri, II
is supposed, will deem it to be their duty to
expose Mr.. Benton's movements. They
will not, it is hoped, attempt to follow him
in all his digressions, for he has discussed
almost every subject that has distracted OF
agitated the public mind for the last fifty
years, not excepting anti~masonry.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.
The political horizon begins to look squal-
ly. There is any thing but cordiality be-
tween the members of the Cabinet. AS vet,
however, they all hold on to the 5000 dollars
year. They look on this as too much
pocket money to give up-so they'll cen
keep that, and give the people their feuds.
One can perceive that parties are beginning
to be formed for the next presidency. Vice
President Calhoun, AMI Mr.. Secretary Van
Buren,, are playing at hazards for the high
stake, and the poor old President is used by
them as a counter. The effort of both ap-
Parently is to destroy the Inteligencer
press; and yet the friends of Mr.. V. Buren,,
don't seem to perceive, that the most fearful
and formidable enemy he has, will be found
in the Telegraph press. Every mean and
unmanly effort is making, and by some men,
VINO ought, and will some day, be ashamed
of it, to iDiure Mr.. Webster in the estima-
ton of the public. AT the close of the de-
bate between Gen. Hayne and Mr.. Webster,
on Mr.. Foors resolution respecting the sur
veys of the public lands, no one wanted
spectacles to perceive, for blind man
would have known from the tone of voice,
that Gen. Hayne retreated from the debate.
wounded, and feeling deeply, and intensely
the power and strength Of his antagonist.
Yet he evinced frank, and manly spirit,
which did him credit-great credit. He,
too, possesses talents of no ordinary stamp.
and is strong debater. That he does not
equal Mr.. w. is no disparagement. Giants
differ in mental as in physical powers. Mr..
Webster's constitutional doctrines were not
only the republican doctrines of the consti-
tuition, but they are those which give life to
the republic, and bonds to the Union; and
Gen. Haynes those which will destroy the
one, and break the other.-.N Y. Com. .4fv.
