= sent to the Brazilian insurgents from
Europe will reach Rio de JanerO within
: few days. Other war materials, including
* rupp guns, have been bought, and will

pressing their sympathy with De Mello and
his ihsurgent band in a substantial man.

~ There are scattered through the leading
:: cities of Spain and France many mem bers
:: Af the old monarchical party who have
-: considerable wealth at their immediate
:: disposal. They were among those who
left their country when Dom Pedro was
i: dethroned and who have refused to return
land become citizens of the republic. Now
=.tnat there is an opportunity they are
.sarraying themselves against the President.
They have recently been contributing
=%eonsiderable sums of money 20 the support
!: of De Mello. End this has been invested in
snch things as the insurgents need.

among the articles sent. and the vessels
is for the use OF the insurgent vessels.

D.. their literal sense and arms of various de-
:, scTiptions have been forwarded and con-
siderable sums of money have been sent.
. These things should reach Rio in a few

on this voyage. The Krupp guns which
have been purchased will be sent as soon
as they can be loaded and the vessel made
:teady. This, it is thought. can be done be-
~:foEethe end of this week.
-. In this venture the mOnarchists and dis
affected Brazilians have shown great en-
:eTgy ana their contributions have been
limited only by the needs of the occasion.

w ho are low living in Paris are among
ttiose who have given literally, and Count
. ID. Eli is supposed to be liberal contributor.
= 1t is uncertain when the two shiDs
Raehuefo and Benjamin Constant on
which Psixoto has been relying, can be
; i-dispatched to South American waters.
TIE vessels are now at Toulon, and as
:. 'Gorne repairs must be made on them the
= best estimates as to time required Tor this
: make possible the date of their sailing
: several months hence.
" ::yThere is but one warship which carries
: heavy guns and is considered perfectly
:. seaJworthy now in the hands Of the insur-
r gents. This is the Republica.
>. The insurgents have plan for bringing
- recruits from the southern States Of Bra
zil to the scene of hostilities. although to
do. this will require considerable time and
the expenditure of large sums of money.
: The insurgents propose to use the coast
=. merchant steamers which they have CAP
:, :tnred, or which were in their possession at
q: the beginning of hostiities, to transport
:: the recruits. 1t is believed that the SYM
: ;pathy of the people of the State Of Rio de
:. JaHeiro is with Peixoto, ana the same is
: true of the States to the north; conse-
:duently, if recruits are to be raised in any
. tqmber, they must come from the States
: In the far south of the republic.
