RIO JASEIao, August rs, 1870.
To-day II has become known that a ministerial
crisis has occurred, the origin OF which WAS tic
dvergency OF the views OF the Itaborahy Cabinet
rom those entertained by the Emperor I'm regard to
The emancipation measure reported by the special
committee on the slave element OF whose blil have
already gwen comprehensive summary. The con-
duct OF the Ministry In respect 10 the question before
the committee had been from the first plainly tine
tured with hostility, aud It had tried I'm various
ways 10 prevent or 10 delay long possible, the
committee making report Owing, however, 10
the excrtt0ns Of three or the Ave members the bin
was reported greatly to the disgust Of the Ministry
In time to enter INTO debate this session n undue OBJ
staces were not thrown In the way. To prevent ac-
tion and 10 sneve the bin, has then become the gov
ernment policy, and IN consequence OF this the
Emperor yesterday put the question directly
to the visconde de Itaborahy as to whether
the government purposed taking any action this
session upon the commitee's BILL On receiving tha
reply that the Ministry did not intend To bring the
bill on this session the Emperor showed much dis
content and told his Exceency that the conduct Of
the Cabinet In relation TO emancipation was compr0
missing him (the EmDeror greatly. The Premier
then said that the Ministry had no intention TO com.
promise his Majesty, but that 1t considered the pro-
visions abolishng slave births Of 30 important q
kind as 10 require long consideration and that his
Majesty believed that the present Cabinet was COM
promising his word II would feel 1t duty TO retire.
His Majesty then simply said "Good," and turned
away abruptly putting an eDd 10 the interview for
the time. Afterwards he sgnined his desire that the
government should allow the bill to be taken
up At an early date; and II the Ministry should re-
fuse to agree TO the implied ultimatum, it is UNDER
stood that Its resignation VIII be ut once accepted.
and that vlsconde de 5. Vicente, q conservative
Senator Of emancpatory tendencies, will be charged
the commlttee Slave bill and Il possible W" earry s
through The Chambers this session. The Vlscoula
de = vicente Is man Of very nigh Reputation az a
years ago brought bill into the Senate To promote
the gradual abolition OF slavery He VIII thus be
nltlng man TO carry out the views OF his Majesty and
OF the present conservative opposition In the Depu.
ties, which. II strengthened by the accession OF u
number OF Deputies who, while agreeing with tho
minority In principle, were voting with the Cabinet
to prevent parliamentary crisis, VIII be able 10
carry,the bill against the open opponents anu those
who OBJECT 10 the Opportuneness.
Besides the wish 10 redeem the public promises in
regard TO einancipatory measures made IN two suc-
cessye speeches from the throne 1t is asserted mat
the Emperor has special purpose in having the
emancipatory provisions inflated without further
year to leave the Princess Imperial as Regent, to
obtain leave OF absence tor two years and travel
their institutions and TO enjoy the meetings OF those
historical, geographical and scientific societies In
which he takes so warm an interest II is said that
lie will first Of ali visit the United States, and wlt
spend some time there In the study or its instiiu-
t0ns. and especially OF the working OF the school
system, as education Is o matter In which his Ma
JesGy takes supreme interest, ana which he Is most
DESTROYS shall be disseminated through every class
OF Brazilian society.
The United States flagship Lancaster has left
this day FOR the river Plate, In consequence
OF the increasing difficulties OF the stu
