provisional government ordered him to

Campos and established an opposition
paper. 1t is said that he now Intends
disseminating its publication. From an
article published in s. Paulo paper by
Dr.. AriStide deS LobO, eX-mlnister OF
the interior. the following extracts are
taken:
LET them say what they please, there
must exist, enveloped in cloud OF
mystery which the provisional govern
ment mas not been able to penetrate, an
element that is conspiring against our
present institutions and against the tut
ure of the republic. There is some
thing singular in the reports which,
from time to time, spring into circula-
ton, and which are becoming more ire
quent. They originate simultaneously
at distant points and spread over the
country as if conveyed by network OF
wires. The celebrated and lamentable
insurrectiOn of the soldiers was pre-
viously announced az different places,
at Parahyba do Sui, for instance, and.
1 believe, here in S. Paulo. The pro-
visional government could precelve
that some hidden hand was touching
the springs of the plot against it. but
this hand it was never able to discover"

of America, in congress assembled.
which was approved by the president
on the 10Th Of February last. whereby
the United States of America cOngratu-
late the people Of Brazil on their peace
full assumption Of the powers. duties
and responsibilities of self-gOvernment.
My government, resting upon the freely
expressed will of the people of the
United States; thus gives voice through
their representatives to the cordial SEN
timents they entertain toward the
people Of Brazil and utter their friendly
welcome to the nation that, by the
adoption of self-government, has en-
rolled itself among the independent
commonwealths of the Western hemis-
phere. The friendship which already
unites the two countries is a pledge OF
even closer association looking toward
the attainment in the future of ends
common to both. l cannot permit my
self to doubt that the high hopes my
countrymen cherish for the advance
ment of Brazil in the paths of peace and
OF material prosperity will be as abun-
nantly realized under the beneficent in
huence of justice and reverence for the
rights of all men,"

"With feelings of heartfelt joy ac-
cept the congratulations of the congress
of the United States of America on the

sumption of self-government through
out the whole continent. The senti-
ment of friendship and amity which has
fortunately ever continued to exist be-
tween Brazil and the United States of
America will be henceforward. hope
and trust, still more intimate and cor
dial, by reason Of the Identity of politi-
cal institutions. which establish
a virtual alliance between the
Brazilian people and the American
ments of mutual respect, esteem and
ests common to the cause of peace and
of the prosperity of American nations.
The Brazilian people, who have always
held III high esteem the good relations
maintained with the American people,
will receive with feelings of gratitude
this new proof of friendship on the part
of the worthy and ilIustrious repre-
sentatives of the United States of
America in congress assembled, as well
as the signal proof of esteem offered us
by the illustriouS president of the pow
erful republic, your native land, by
sending US through your intermedium
the expression of their friendly senti-
mentS."
