AS you are well aware, General Paez, who had
been long in Brazil was sent down to Montevideo,
there with other enemies of Urqulza, to avail them
selves OF his abseocs at Santa Fe, to form the Con-
gress OF the country, and to give it constitution;
took possession of the city aud country, and through
Commodore Coe (who sold his sluadron) succeeded
completely in putting him down.

Pacheco and Paranhos sent for, on the part OF
Brazil to the government its late treaties
The bait took and it was resolved that the two
vacant places in the ministry be filed by man of the

said to be in Brazilian pay. The object, however,
failed, as they thought Clio would resign, when it
was ordained that Andre Lamas would be elected
President. This ge otieman hadceased 10 be minister
