the Russian chips are preparing to turn
their prows seaward, it may safely be
said that nowhere in the history of any
other nation has there been such dem
onstration of sympathy and universal
enthusiasm as wac displayed here, in
Paris, Lyons and Marseilles upon the oc-
casion OF the visits OF the guests OF the
nation.
President Carnot received the follow

SAT the moment of the departure OF
the Russian squadron from France 1 am
particularly desirous Of expressing to
you how deeply touched and gratifed
am at the warm and splendid reception
my sailors have met with in all parts
while on French .soil. This is evidence
of the keen sympathy which has once
more been displayed with so much elo-
quence, and will add fresh link to
those uniting the two countries, and
will, hope, contribute to the strength
ening OF the general peace, the object oil
their most constant endeavors and

New York, Oct. 2S.-The Herald's
Rio de Janeiro dispatch says President
Peixoto nas issued the following state
ment:
The rebel vessels are imprisoned in
the bay of Rio de Janeiro. Further
more, there is ample proof that the
bombarding of the ships from the
gevernment fort has done serious
damage. Two men-of-war have been
rendered useless, three are injured
and the armed cruisers are
damaged go much that they
are powerless. The government is daily
taking measures toward isolating the
various refractory elements in Bahai.
All attempts to land forces have failed,
the rebels being repulsed with great
loss. The general political situation is
good. There ia no public manifestation
in favor of the rebels. In the fed
eral states the garrisons are CIV
ing energetic asBistonce to the govern
ment, the sole exception being Martha,
where is situated the city of Desterro in
which the rebels have organized gov
eminent without moral or material ele-
ments, and composed of members of
whom scarcely two dare set foot on
the continent. All the other states,
however, remain faithful to the federal
government.
The Herald's Montevideo dispatch
says: The revolutionary provisional
government has declared Santa Catarina
to be free port. From Rio Grande
the report comes that the city
OF Santa Ana will probably be
in the possession OF the revolutionists
in q few days. 1t is asserted that Fort
Santa Cruz is perfectly neutral. How
ever, it is generally believed that the
garrison will declare for Admiral Mello.
A report is received that the Riacmielo
has sailed from Toulon and will join
Mello on her arrival.
