Brazil and the United States.

BosToN, July 3l.-A meeting of the gov
ernment of the board of trade was held in
the chamber by the board this afternoon, to
listen to an exposition by Rev. j. C. Fetch
er, secretary OF legation at Brazil under the
Fillmore administration, on the productions
and commerce of that country, and on the
Importance of establishing closer and more
intimate relations between Brazil and the
United States. He dscoursed at length
upon the great agricultural development
of Brazil; the amazing fertility and capa-
bilitleS of the vast valley of the Amazon one
million square miles larger than the valley of
the Mississippi, the unlimited capacity of that
whole region for the production of coffee,
cotton and sugar, and then dwet with strong
force and emphasis upon the disadvantage
under which we labor for want, first, Of direct
steam communication with Brazil; and sec
ondly, of American houses there for the sale
and exchange Of American productions. For
want OF these our export trade was falling
away, and conducted at great disadvantage,
while England, through means of her steam
lines and chains of commercial houses reach
ing tromiLondon to every principal port, was
enlarglng year by year. He spoke fOrcibly
upon the great advantage that would accrue
to our commerce by competing steam line,
OF the prevailing friendly feeling of Brazil to-
wards the United States, and of the liDer-
atty OF the Brazilian government which
stood pledged to subsidize with liberality any
American steam line owned by American cit
liens that should be first established to per-
form this service. The remarks were listen
ed to with great attention, and series of res
olutons were unanimously adopted express
i've of the high interest with which the board
regarded the propositions of the speaker, of
their appreciation of the liberal PROPOSITIONS
