PROTEST OF THE BRAZILIAN GOVERNMENT AGAINST
THE LIBERTY OF NAVIGATING THE AMAZON GRANTED
BY PERU.-In a recent paper from Lima, We find an
interesting correspondence between the Brazilian
minister to that Republic and the Peruvian Secreta-
ry Of State the subject of the recent law enacted
by Peru, giving the freedom of navigating the ANA
zon to the nations with whom she has treaties.
The Brazilian minister charges on Tirado, the Pc
ruvan Secretary, the violation thereby thereby of
certain rights guaranteed to his government by trea
ty. The existence of companies, under pretended
support of the laws of Peru, discussing the
ganizaton of mercantile expeditions to the coast of
Peru, and other preparations are actively going
Albuquerque the Brazilian minister protests against
the results expected from this resolution of Peru in
degree detrimental to Brazil.
declares that if the right of navigation the ANA
zon is an exclusive right of the people the shore,
Peru deny the right of navigation to nations
holding treaties with her.
Not finding plausible grounds for refusal, and not
considering this permit pref judicial to the interests
of Brazil the Peruvian government has licensed these
expeditions The Secretary claims Peru to be ire
sponsible for the designs of these companies Peru
cannot consistently deny these companies access to
her dominons according to the treaty, and she is
responsible for any other construction of the decree
of April 5th.
He concludes with the wish that all impedment:
to the navigation Of the Amazon may be avoided, by
! the establishment of conference, which will cause
an agreement of the plenipotentiarIes of the said
| Staie.-N Y. Erp,ess.

COMMODORE PERRT's RECEPTION BY THE JAPANESE
The New York Herald states that before the expe-
dition 10 Japan set sail the British government sent
instructions 10 Dr. Bowring, Consul at Shanghae, to
communicate with the Japanese authorities, and APP
prise them of the intentions of the United Staes-
Dr. Bowrng accordingly despatched special private
envoy to Jeddo, and notified the Japanese Emperor
that great and powerful nation, occupying nearly
the whole northern portion of the American continent
about TO apply for admission to The ports of ia
pan that ii would be imprudent on the part of the
Japanese authorities refuse to gran, the request of
the American ENJOYS. the Americans were prompt
and fiery. and would be likely TO do mischief if thwar-
ted or treated rudey; bnt that they were also tickle
and prone change, and if the Japanese just agreed
all they asked, it than probable that they
would tire of the bargain after short WHILE and then
matters would relapse into their former condition.

His recent bereavement is eengly alluded to in the
following extract of letter of the Washington cor

which they endeavo to appropriate General Cass and

wound struck by the death of the cherished partner
of his life yet bleeding, he has, just learn from

reavement, in the death of his favore grand child

inlaw. She bright and lovely child, at the
interesting age OF ten, and perfectly WELL and read

General Politics.

The age of progress may be proper designation
Tor this nineteenth century generally speaking, but
think that the age of letter writing would more
distinctly characterize the political aspect of that
portion of the century known 1858. Most es-
sentaly, this is the Republic of letters, in which
men. otherwise of good sense, make fools of them
selves upon paper; and fools exhibit their folly
conspicuously through the same medium. The
res of letters to which the fuss about the New York
Custom House las given rise, seems to have contrib
uted much larger amount to the current political
literature of the day than its intrinsic Importance
would warrant because Of the fact that the leading
actors concerned have chosen to exhibit themselves
in print, their compositions taking the form of let
tiers; all of which was simply foolish A public
man cannet be guilty of greater mistake.
However this New York election may have result
ed we cannot but think that it's Importance has been
very considerably over.rated Although, to read
the Herald and some other of the New York city
papers, would suppose that that s. Commercial
Emporium " stood in the relation to this coun-
try that Paris does France, little reflection shows
us that such is far from being the case-tbat, on
the contrary, the known profigacy of its leading
politicians tends, in great measure, to neutralize
the influence of its numbers and position, certainly
to extent not compensated for the power of its
wealth or commerce. The New York affair is sim
ply local squabble, and nothing but the force oil
letter-writing has given it any other complex
ion Its influence upon the next Congress will be in
fnitessimal. Perhaps a fresh howl or two will be
raised against the message and the reports in which
stricter economy will be recommended in connec
ton with the extrayagant contracts for Ocean Mai
Steamers with New York Jobbers and 81 eculators
and the direction of greater amount of care anc
energy to the increase and efficiency of the Navy
in all which we believe the administration will b,
triumphantly sustained.

New York ELECTIONS The returns from the re
cent elections in New York, too scattering to
possess any interest in detail, so that we may as
well up in few words and say, that the softs''
have plurality over the g hards," throughout the
State and the wings have plurality over them,
and have carried everything, having elected two
thirds of their State Senators, who serve for two
years. The U. s. Senator in place of VIM. H. Sew
ard, is to be chosen by the Assembly elected next
year, and the State Senators elected 80 that,
in fact, the reelection of Seward is secured and
this is the first result of the extreme love for the
South professed by the awfully righteous hards. Sc
much did they hate abolitonis, that they took the
most direct method to keep that NATIONAL man
