them More than 10000 troops had arrived on
the 9th and 10th of February from different parts
Of Brazil. On the 18th. 5000 men arrived from
Pernambuco. and their whole force amounts TO
more than $1,000 men, who are posted about the
town. The only advantage the Rebels have Is
their horses. with which they are wen supplied.

lately.

RIO Grande, watching the movements of the en-.
envy: four of them had been taken prisoners on
the Both of January and tied 10 stakes, and there
left 10 perish. On the Is, of March, slave mur

The quantity of Calicoes printed in this coun.
try is now estimated at 100000 pieces, or 1900.
