and honest men, of every shade of opinion, will con-
cur in siigmatsing it as of the fouest acts ol

manner the character of the Brazilian nation. We

Office men who have so basey betrayed their sover-

ment, after having exhibited such admirable for
bearance under the most irritating proyocaons, and
wiihal preserving unimpared the dignity of the
confederation, is happily enabled, without in the
least detractng thererom TO await the result of an
appeal to the honor and justice of the Brazilian peo-
pie. But forbearance, carried beyond its due limits,
degenerates into pusilanlmity; and we would be
the last TO counsel such false step The part OF
the government of this country. Still, we would
not be the first TO advocate those extreme measures,
TO which nations wont to have recourse for the
redress of their grievances and the less so, when
more temperate course would, in the end prove
equally efficient. We would merely conhne our
selves 10 recall act passed by the American Con-

"The editor then gives the non-ntercourse law Of
Congress, passed to counteract the Berlin and Milan
DEGREES and the orders in council. The hope of
avoiding war with England prompted the passage
OF that law But all was in vain. We had TO go
to war with the arrogant aggressor few years ago.
"Wc shall be happy to find the Argentine repub-
lie capable of maintaining its integrity and terrific
rial rights against the formidable alliance of mon
arches now threatening its dissolution. Our SYM
palhics are with her; for we deep-laid scheme
in the movements Of her enemies. That scheme 10
neither more less than string of French colo
MES from Patagonia to Pernambuco, and chain of
English colonies from the latter part to Yucatan!"
Yes, the Sun may rest assured that the Argentine
confederation win finch in the assertion of her
national rights, for never were her citizens more
united--not even in the war of independence. The
determination to resist foreign dclation Is general,
from the conviction both of the business of the cause,
and Of the dleness of all attempts by naval force to
subdue country which possesses within itself such
abundant resources. As regards England, we APP
prehend that she will find out perhaps when it is
too late, that in this nglorious interference she has
been damning her own character and running her
own interests, merely to promote the designs OF a
.grasping rival.
We have not been deceived in anticipations The
traitor ministry of Enesto Fere Franea has been onsted
and Brazil, recong at the demon OF intervention which
her had conred up appears have entrench
ed herself in absolute neutrality which if she again aban
dons i is to be hoped that will be to place herself by the
side of the sister States OF the American continent Tor the
purpose of repeng unjust encroachmens on the rights
of all.
