.orship. If there is any revolt in Pernam-
Of it has not reached this city. There are
doubtless, am given to understand, dis
affected Republicans and number of I'm
perialists, who would like to see the mon
archy re-established, but they have
not, so far as known here,
openly pronounced against the gov
ernment The only signs of discomfort
the people of Rio are aware of, ere in Rio
Grande de Sui, the most southerly of the
states in the republic. Such disturbances
IS have broken out there appear from such
as we have to have been alto
gether OF local character. So Sights the
uprising officially regarded that the COVER
nor OF the state is considered fully capable of
dealing with it. He evidently thinks 50
himself since he has not seen tit to make
any Call upon the government for assist
ance. 1t is believed if the outbreak were
so serious as to imperil his power the gov
ernor would certainly before this have
asked such aid.
Rio is quiet; business is conducted as
before the dissolution of congress. EOnseca
still maintains he has no intention of be-
coming dictator beyond such time as is
necessary TO re-establish perfect order all
over Brazil.n
The correspondent of the Herald at Val
paraiso sends the following dispatch: 1t is
reported to night mum Der Of members of
the Brazilian congress which Dictator Fon-
SEGA recently dissolved, have sought an
asylum in different foreign legations in
Rio de Janeiro. Uruguay has become
alarmed at the state of affairs in Brazil
and massed troops along the frontier line
OF that country. L am just in receipt of a
dispatch from Buenos Ayres which states
on the night of November a revolt was
begun in Rio Grande de Sui and spread
rapidly. AT last accounts the greater part
of the state was occupied by the rebels.
Generals Fernandez and Santa Ana are
said to be at the head of the Revolutionists
and their ranks are reported to be receiv-
ing constant acceSsiCns. The garrison at
at Yuguaron, it is said, has joined the in
surgents and artillery has been placed at
the disposal of the two generals who are in
command. The dictator's governor In Rio
Grande de Sui, Ca5tillo, deemed the revolt
so serious he asked the central govern
ment for reinforcements, representing his
position as precarious. III compliance Fon-
SEGA at once sent four gunboats, three
monitors and two transports loaded with
troops, to the scene of the uprising. The
troops will be landed at the ports of Rio
Grande do Sui, Pelotas and San Jose Del
Norte, at the mouth of the Bay of Patos
Following upon the announcement of the
garrison at Yinguaron going over to the
insurgents comes word that two other gar
risons also joined the rebel forces in Rio
GraDde do Sui. While this is taking
place the residents of Rio de Janeiro
seem to be kept in perfect ignor-
believe everything is peaceful in
the republic, and that the discomfort
against Fonseca is not worth noticing.
Their ignorance is owing to the fact the
government is suppressing all kilograms
that describe the true situation of affairs
in the state of Rio Grande do Sui.
The chiefs of the revolution are said to
be Visoopde Pelotas, Baron Jijuk and
Generals Astropillo and Feravares. Their
object seems TO be to form national party
in opposition to the dictator. This party
is to be made up of Liberals and Conserva-
tives. The probabilities are the authorities
will meet with very lively times in Rio
Grande do Sui. Persons hitherto holding
| Office but now opposed to FonSeca are in
destitute circumstances.
