Il have Just returned from lo dc Jsneiro. and
bling you the latest flee OF papcfs from thar city
Having somo later news than contained in tue paper
scratch ii down for your disposal hoping it may not
prove altogether embarrassing to the public. The
1lh and sh Of September we're great holidays in Bra
zi the former the day Of Independence the latter
great feast and and gala day. We left the 9Th, no
papers being printed, owing to the Independence OF
the It'll On the I'd Of September bill, which had
been under discussion for come time in the Chamber
of Deputies, was passed depiying the officers Of the
army below colonel, and the corresponding officers in
tic navy TIC rgh, of marriage without the consent Of
Government. Whom this bill was brought forward Il
raised The Indignation Of the Ocors which increased
up 10 the day passed when the excitement bees
intense that portion Of the oficcrs who in
the Chamber watching the progress Of the bill inter-
iup'ed the proceedings Of the Chamber, and five OF
them wero arrested and imprisoned. This only added
fuel to the fame aud from that time to the eth it
gathered strength And Oh the day Of Independence,
about the hour the Emperor arrived al his palace in
the city, it seen there was detection in several
companies Of the troops, and report says that the
troops Of the ike asked if they could b. depended
upon, they said No. Whereupon ten officers we're ar
rested sCme soy, ard others say fifteen were arrcstci
but most likely i, docs not exceed ten. The news
spread like Wild fire in oil parts Of the city AMI thoex
coment very great and IL was currently reported
that there would be an insunochon or revolution. The
citizens mace rush for the public square, in front
ard side of tho palace and all avenues leading TO il
were guarded with dense mass Ct human beings. All
the stores, house, and her buildings were crowded
Every place which admitted view Of the palace or
square was occupied by the excited public Amer'
can curiosity was tiptce, and The line sh'p-chand-
leTy store Of Capt. Geo Hobbs was hlled by the
American residents and Il officers from the Savan-
nah, Decatur and Germantown. The Emperor came
at tie usual hour. and with his customary guard. He
aiighted from his carriage and entered the palace
with his natural dignity and fmncss; there was no
Iesessness fear emotion 10 be seen in his coante-
nance. He came to review the troops from his pal
ace, fronting the bay, and it being fine day they
made a splendid turnout. There were one hundred
companies more or less, with about fifty bands OF
music, and comprising in all from 1000 to 5000
troops. The day passed of without any disturbance
There vas no feeling existing against the Emperor
relative to tho matter at least heurd OF none The
Emperor vel beloved and popular among his poo
pie He is young man of twent. nine, active, in
dustrious studious, wellinformed speaks five or six
languages ready and able TO cope with any or all of
bis ministers or measures which they may bring for
ward. He is never taken unawaros, but keeps him
self posted up with all the passing events of the day
He is tab strongly built, robust, hoe looking man.
His Empress is kind, good, noble looking woman,
not handsome, but one that does you good to look
at and sLe il possessed of hearr large Block
Island and noble as ii is large. sho IS one OF
those generous charitable souls of earth which bless

quire the incentive to this excitement. Mothers with
manageable daughters took tho matter in hand, and
s,orned with holy indignation at the audscity Of the
Government, and berated all concerned slundly.
They dashed and denounced the authors OF the meas
ure az a set of hard.hearted unioelmg, tyraunical
lordipcs The young senhoras were not a. all back
ward in Joining the latter: they declared tho whole
batch the most Wholesale dictaors and tyrants they
over heard of. Did they expect the women 10 re-
main single always! Do they suppose that the
thousands Of officers will submit TO such chains
IF they do they deserve TO wear them for life, Id
never be blessed b. the chains OF Hymon Inoy
are quite mistaken about the spirn of the OIL
GERS Where do they expect 10 get all the army
fapd navy from if the officers are not allowed 10

mary; but Tor oiccrs, | never heard OF the like
The misses cnno TO the also. They DID not
like to be deprived OF the company OF the middicS'
1t was too bad for the nice litle gentlemen TO be
ordered away from their sweethearts IL ls
shame that tLoy must be condemned to remain
ss dolls. They are tho most kind, gallant and
generous Of ell the oficcrs, and deserve more; but
now they cant marry, alas Thus through
the whole catalogue OF female relations young
ladies and misses the officers received con-
,ipua running fire on all sides. This though hard to
bear might have been supportabe, coming az Il did
from the respectable and yiruous portion OF the ie-
males they could have borne the thrsts, jokes J0cs
and sarcasms Of the latter portion OF females but To
be hit and tanialized by the other portion was quite
too much After the Law passed no officer could pass
a window at which there female and what WIN
dow in a good portion Of the city docs not contain
that appendage p without having his ears saiuted
with the following: Poor fellow, pity HIM can
see the use of his setting off his fine proportions, as
he can't break any ladys heart now. He IS quite
good looking, but all 10 no purpose IL IS 100 pad
for so fine q young man to be made an old batch.
There is no use of crying, ii can't be helped. THIS
was like throwing oil upon fire. 50 matters grew
