up to the present writing there is
nothing so far as can be learned here, to
seriously threaten the stability of Fon-
seca's dictatorship. If there is aay re-
volt In Pernambuco, Bahia or Para, reli-
able information OF it has not reached
this city. There are, doubtless, am
given to understand, disaffected repub-
leans and number OF imperialists who
would like to see the monarchy re-estab-
lished, but they have not, so far as
known here, openly pronounced against
the government. The only signs of dis
content the people of Rio are aware
OF, are in Rio Grande do Sui. The
trouble broken out there, appears, from
such intelligence as we have, to have
been altogether of local character. So
Blight is the uprising officially regarded,
that the governor of the state is con-
sidered fully capable of dealing with it.
He evidently thinks 80 himself, since he
has not seen fit to make any call upon
the government for assistance. 1t is be-
iieved If the outbreak were so serious as
to imperil his power, the governor would
certainly before this have asked such
aid. Rio is quiet. Business is con-
Quoted as before the dissolution of con-
gress. Fonseca still maintains that he
has no intention of continuing the die
tatorship beyond such time as is neces-
sary to re-establish perfect peace all over
Brazil"
MORE ALARMING REPORT.
The correspondent of the Herald at
Valparaiso, sends the following dis
patch: st is reported tonight that a
number OF members of the Brazilian
congress, which Dictator Fonseca re-
Gently dissolved, have sought asylum in
the different foreign legations in Rio
Janeiro. Uruguay has become alarmed
at the state OF affairs in Brazil, and
amassed troops along the frontier line
of that country. / am just in receipt of
a dispatch from Buenos Ayres which
states that on the night of November
9th revolt began in Rio Grande do Sui
and spread rapidly. At last ac-
counts the greater part of the state
was occupied by the rebels. Gen
erals Fernando and Santa Ana
are said to be be at the head of the
reyolutionist and their ranks are
reported to be receiving constant access
sions. The garrison at .Yuguaron, it is
said, have joined the Insurgents, and
the artillery has been placed at the dis
posal OF the two generals who are in
command. The dictator's governor in
Rio Grande do Sui, Castillo, deemed the
revolt SO serious that he asked the CEN
trail government for reinforcements, rep
resenting his position as precarious. In
compliance Fonseca at once sent four
gunboats, three monitors and two trans
ports loaded with troops to the scene OF
the uprising. The troops will be landed
at the ports of Rio Grande do Sui, Pelo-
tas and San Jose do Norte, at the mouth
'of the bay of Patos.
Following upon the announcement
OF the garrison at Yuguaron going over
to the Insurgents, comes word that two
other garrisons also joined the rebel
forces in Rio Grande do Sui. While
this is'taking place. the residents of Rio
Janerio seem to be kept in perfect ig-
norance of these stirring events. They
believe everything is peaceful in the re-
public, and that the discomfort against
Fonseca is not worth noticing. Their
ignorance is owing to the fact that the
government is suppressing all kilograms
that describe the true situation of af-
fairs in the state of Rio Grande do Sui.
'"The chiefs of the revolution are said
to be Visconde Velotas, Baron Jijuk and
Generals Astropillo and Fravaras. Their
objects seem to be to form national
party in opposition to the dictator. This
party is to be made up of both liberals
and conservatives. The probabilities
are that the authorities will meet with
a very lively time in Rio Grande do Sui.
The persons hitherto holding Office, but
now opposed to Fonseca, are in destitute
circumstances.
LONDON, Nov. ia private telegram
received is to the effect that Rio Grande
do Sui is now entirely in the hands of
the seceders from the dictatorship of
Fonseca. The dispatch also says the
military have given support to the Sc
ceders.
The Brazilian minister to Chile, Senior
Cavalcanti, has resigned as representa-
tive of Fonseca.
