The return of Mr. Wise, our late envoy to Brazil, and the appointment of a new minister, have given rise toa misunderstanding of our re- lations with that government. Various mis- statements have, from time to time, appeared, giving currency to the belief that Mr. Wise has been recalled, and his acts disavowed by his government; that concessions have been made to Brugil, and that the new minister, Mr. Tod, went out furnished with powers and instructions to adjust every matter in dispute. Not one of these representations contains a single grain of truth. We feel sure that Mr. Wise has not been re- called. He has been permitted to return at his own solicitation. His official acts have not been disavowed; but, on the contrary, they have been sustained throughout. No concession has been made to Brazil, nor has Mr. Tod any instructions to arrange the matters in dispute between the two governments. Mr. Buchanan has reserved to himself the conduct of the negotiations, at Washington. Mr. Tod has nothing whatever to do with anything that has passed prior to his ar- rival at the seat of his new mission. {n all candor, and without any intention to disparage the new minister, it must be said that his speech on presenting his credentials to the Emperor, was not in the best taste. There w no necessity for any allusion to his predecessor, his own duty having no connection with Mr. Wise’s acts. The version of that portion of his speech bearing on his predecessor, as it is given in our journals, does not accord with his own version of it, which is, of course, the correct one. Instead of saying, ‘my imme_ diate predecessor involved himself in difficul. ties,” &c., it should read, ‘‘my immediate pre- decessor encountered difficulties,” &c. There is a material difference, as the former version would have been a direct censure on Mr. Wise, which would have been -as unjustifiable as it was unauthorized. But any allusion to those difficulties was uncalled for, and, therefore, ill- judged, as it gave the Emperor an opportunity in reply to reiterate the old, and by us inadmis- sable, allegation, that the difficulties were of Mr. Wise’s own creation. We have said that Mr. Wise’s official acts have been sustained throughout by his govern- ment. That gentleman may have given, un- officially, strong indications of contempt for the course of the Brazilian government in the affair of Lieutenant Davis, and in the proceedings to which it gave rise; but they could scarcely have been too strong. The conduct of Brazil deserved the strongest reprobation. The matter in dispute was adjusted honorably at Washing- ton, between Mr. Buchanan and Mr. Lisboa, the accredited Minister of Brazil near this govern- ment. A political crisis arose in Brazil. The ministers wished to create a sensation in their favor, by appearing to bully the United States; and the most effectual means of effecting this paltry expedient, was to recall Mr. Lisboa and express their dissatisfaction at his adujustment of the difficulties between the two governments. Nothing had been demanded of Brazil but what she could, with honor, concede. In con- sideration of her weakness, she had been treated with more consideration and indul- gence than would have been shown to a stronger power, under like circumstances. Bra- zil 1s not such a power that undue exactions from her could redound to the honor of the United States; consequently Mr. Buchanan con- sulted for the honor of this government, as well in demanding no concession that might not be made without humiliation to Brazil, as by in- sisting on the respect due to the flag of the United States. Our government was, therefore, justly indignant that an arrangement based on such liberal feelings should have been spurned by Brazil without any cause but to arrest the fall of a tottering ministry. To this end, also, M. Lisboa, the ablest minister Brazil has ever sent to country, was recalled in disgrace, and his acts disavowed. It would be wrong to suffer conduct 80 unwor- thy to pass without severe censure. We hold such a position on this continent as to be justi- fied in expressing our opinion freely on the con- duct of the smaller powers in their intercourse with us and with each other. Our government is strong enough and pure enough to give tone to international sentiment—to approve warmly of what is honorable, and to express decided disapprobation of what is unworthy and base; and when the correspondence between the two governments shall be published, it will be found that while on our part every thing was avoided which could tend to an aggravation of the diffi- culty, still a severe and dignified rebuke has been administered to Brazil for the wayward- nese and meanness of her conduct in the whole transaction Mr. Lisboa’s arrangement of the difficulty h: been disavowed by his government. It remains for our government to decide whether or not to insist upon an immediate avowal and recogni- tion of that adjustment, as would undoubtedly be the only course left us if such a disavowal had been made by either England or France, under similar circumstances. The course of our gov- ernment in this respect has not as yet been de- cided upon. ANNINILATION or Srace.—We learn trom Mr. Carter, the efficient chief operator at this termi- nus of the North Western Telegraphic Line, that the wires were connected from this city through to Montreal on Saturday evening, and a direct communication opened to the latter city, a dis- tance af over one thousand miles. The following, among other communications, came through : ‘ononro, Oct. 16, 1847- For New York and Montr: Mr. Isard, of the British Colonist, Torontd, offers his |, on attain- lations to New York and Montreal, ‘ing 1021 miles of aa line her Majesty’s sub- jeots and the citizens of United Staten, enjoy- wv of the benefits resulting from such connec- ion. This is the greatest distance yet achieved over the wires. The communication was opened by Mr. Otis Wood, at this end, and Mr. Orin Wood, in Montreal, both accomplished operators, and a lively conversation kept up from one point to the other, with perfect ease. The greatest an- nihilation that space ever received previous to this, was between Toronto and Hartford, a dis- tanee of seven hundred and eighty-five miles. Now, overa thousand milesthave been overcome; and we understand that Mr. Carter intends shortly to attach his line to Boston, and then neary thirteen hundred miles will be accom- plished... Thus, before the ink is dry in this city, the word is received at a distance of over one thou- sand miles, and an anewer returned | upon coffee imported into the United States from Brazil, in the vessals of that nation. At the time that order was issued, there was aj Brazilian ves- sel in Boston, and another in Philadelphia, and it was carried into operation soas to cover the cargoes of these vessels. It appeared to us atthe time very strange that such a measure should have been so long delayed, if any authority ex- isted for its enforcement, and so we expressed our. selves, Itappears that the Secretary of the Trea- sury acted upon the supposition that the com- mercial treaty, which expired in 1841, was no longer the regulator of the commercial inter- course of the two countries, and the importation of coffee into the United States from Brazil, in vessels belonging to that nation, should be regu- lated by our tariff laws of 1846. The annexed circular places the matter in ano- ther and more favorable position: Circular to Collectors and other Officers of the Customs. Boing apprised by the Depertuient of State, of ite joing a) of altot Goatees we semmination ot the treaty of the lath December, 1828, bet: the United States and Brasil. which expired on the 12th December, 1841, that the Government of Brasil has acted in the same manner in regard to our commerce and navigation as though the treaty still continued to exist, and no representations to the contrary having come to the knowledge of the Department of State, it is deemed expedient that the same course should, for the present, be pursued om the part of the Government of the United States. ou are consequently instructed to admit free of duty, under the provisions of schedule I, ot the tariff of July, 1846, coffee of the growth of Brasil, imported di rectly from that country, in vessels belongi nation; and will also exempt said vessels and cargoes from the charge of discriminating duties of impost or tonnage of any deseription whatsoever. R. J. WALKER, Secretary of the Treasury. Considerable difficulty has for a long time been experienced, in consequence of commercial treaties between this and other nations, and our tariffs, conflicting relative to the rate of duties charged on merchandise entering the ports of each, in the vessels belonging to each. Com- mercial treaties always have the precedence; whatever rate of duty these treaties establish, is enforced, and the tariff in that particular an- nulled. The above circular shows how these laws operate together. We do not see how these evils can be remedied; these commercial treaties are very important things, and cannot be dispensed with; but in forming new ones they should be made to agree with the tariff laws as much as possible. To bring about a retorm in this, our tariffs must become more permanent than they have ever yet been. y y Tur Wasuinaton Monument.—The corner stone of the Washington Monument will be laid in this city to-morrow, and the proceedings on the occasion, it is expected, will be on a grand and imposing scale. All the various societies—masonic and odd- fellow orders—military and fire companies—ci- vic and State auchorities—besides a large num- ber of invited guests, comprising distinguished men from all parts of the country ,will be’present, as well asthe foreign diplomatic corps. The procession, it is expected, will be the largest that was ever seen in New York, and eve- ry way worthy of the occasion. We shall furnish a full report of it for the benefit of our readers. Miuitany Movements.—The ship Canton went to sea on Saturday evening, with companies L and M, of the 2d Artillery. Annexed are the names of the officers: Company L—Captain, R. A. Luther; Second Lieut.

Sreamsuir Hisernta.—This steamer left Bos- ton on Saturday noon for Halifax and Liverpool. She has ten passengers forthe former, and eighty for the latter port. In looking over the sporting advertisements in our columns, we notice a match between Ripton and Lady Sutton, which comes off on the 6th of November. This race is creating much excitement among sporting gen- try, and already, within our knowledge, some $8000 or 10,000 are pending on the result. Ripton isa great fe- Sorite with the Philadelphians, and the straight couteare oing the strength of their wallets on the result. Lady Sutton, also, is well backed, and the su; ition is that this will be the largest betting trot that has taken place for a number of years.

CHatuam Tueatne.—Let it be known that Mr. E. 8. Conner will take s benefit at the Chataam Theatre this evening, and we are gure that the house will be as full as At ever was—for he is, as every one knows, deserving of a good one, Let it be known, too, that there isa very excellent bill provided for the occasion, and that Jim Crow Rice, Mrs. MeLean, from the Southern theatres, and several other good performers willappear. We refer Our readers to the advertising columms for the anuse- ments of the evening. Bowgar Cincus—Amruitugatne.—The performances here to-vight will be of the equestrian order, and the manager is determined to commence the week well, by giving as good « bill as he has this season.

You allude in that article to the general incorrectness of Mexican maps, and to the ibility thet El Paso del Norte, instead ot north, lies south of the 32d. All I can communicate to you on this subject is, that during an excursion which I undertook last to Northern Mexico, | determined the latitude of Fl Paso by the alti- tude of the polar star, and found it to be 31 deg. 45 min. 50 sec. north latitude. I have reason to believe that this observation, if not correct in seconds, is at least so in minutes ; and that a boundary line, drawn by the 32d, would make us lose this most important point between Santa Fe and Chibuabua. As to the importance of El Paso, allow me to add yet a few remarks.

With,the growth of popu- lation and the great increase of wealth among us, Eu- rope has sent to our shores operatic troupes, who were warmly weloomed and patronized, and have afforded us fime models for the improvement of musical taste. To the Park theatre, at early periods, has the public been Asoply indebted for this result ; the first directions were given to the popular impulse and feeling on thig subject here. Musiothus pioneered has been cultivated as a its spread and development is beyond all An audience with us begins to assert its right to criticise as well ss to admire, and the foreign taste among us harmonionsly blended with our own, has raised the standard of excellence. Our concerts rank as high as any in Europe, for there,as well as on the stage, is the field for the display of the highest musical powersand of the perfection of science. Thus, mere or- dinary ability will not succeed or please; there must be decided talent. With the requisite endowments of na- ture, as to vooal power and sweetness, there must be impulse and the result of laborious training—of = in @ good school ; there must be decided taste to avoi: meretricious ormaments; but the chaste elaborations of science must bethere. Ofallthe female vocalists this country has seen, Mde. Bishop, on Hila) prone, Oey elaimsa pre-eminence. Hers is the perfection of science; her style is a complete study—there could be no better training to listen nightly to her tones: now giving utterance to sounds of flute-like softness, now to the warblings ofa bird, now to the trills and shakes full of melody and oxquisite precision; and in all, to tones sweet and brilliant, that burst.on the ear and charm the ination, while they impress qn with wonder and ation of what science, guiding the gifts of a lav- ish nature, can achieve. Such is Madame Bishop.— For the advancement of musical science, for the tri- umph of art and of nature so happily combined, for the gratification of s refined taste, and the spread of refined sentiments and enjoyments, we hail the engagement of this delightful voealist, who its the highest claims to the patronage of those who aim to establish musical science and talent om ourboards. The first stage re- hearsal of the Bishop troupe took place on Saturday. ‘The opera rel was “Norma.” As to Madame Bishop’s Norma—but we will leave our friends to guéss, and forbear remarks until after the great vooalist’s ap: pearance; but the new tenor, Mr. Reeves, we are muob mistaken if he does not take the town by storm. The orchestra, on the occasion ‘of this rehearsal, rose en masse to applaud him. The noble voice of Signor Val- tollini was heard to great advantage, and Mile. Korsin- aki was not wanting in admirers. Quite a number of musical amateurs were present. Exmiorian Seazxapens.—We need only say that this band opens again to-night with anew programme.

AFFAIRS IN YUCATAN. [Translated from-the N. O. La Patria, 7th inst.) Our readers will remember that when we announced the mows of the late rising of the Indians in Yucatan, we made mention of a document written in the Maya language, which was found in the rancho of San Fernan- do. [tis given in the original, and also in the Spanish language, in the Sigiio XEK. of Meride, and we give it with the translation, as a document worthy of preser- vation. ‘We, powr'Indians, declare, that the!Spaniards commit many injuries against us, and even our ehildren and women; much is done us without the shadow of » fault ; therefore, Indians revolt, it is because the whites have given them cause; because the whites say that we have not received Christ; all the grace of God has burned them, and thus they have to account for why they are killing the Indians; for when they first came to seek us out to kill us we were content; therefore, though we should suffer twelve years, and ali that time they should injure us, we will not still be dispirited, for we are the creatures of God,and have to say, that if God gave them license to kill us all—for we had no will when Juan Vasquez commenced to kill us—that he deoeiv- ed us, and afterwards he returned to the work of killing us, and if for this we should die by the hands of the Spaniards, patience—do the Spaniards think that this will end; thus; never, for thus it is written im the book Chelam Balam—Thus also vur Lord Jesus Christ left us on earth, and on this account, if the Spaniards will be quiet, we also will be quiet. ‘This is the last declaration which we, the Indians, make. ‘There is but one God in his glorious unity; we bless him and his angels.

So rapid was the accumulation and rush of the flood, th: it forced its way through nearly all the dwellings and stores in the centre ef the town, bursting open doors, tearing down walls, ripping up floors, and floating furni ture, besides sweeping away provisions of every kind, making numerous families almost destitute of eatables Many persons made narrow escapes. One gentleman was seen wading out with a lighted candle in his mouth. and achild ineach hand. Mr. George Johnston was rescued from the flood, and after great difficulty was resuscitated. L. T. Moore, Esq. was attempting to cross Loudoun street, and was near being swept under the bridge; for- tunately a floating log saved him. Several youths were also rescued from the flood. Some of the stores on Loudoun, Market, and Water streets, were filled some three and four feet deep in the first floors, and large quantities of groceries, oils, liquors, salt, &o., Ko., in the c:llars, were completely destroyed. A briok building, being erected inan elevated part of the town, was completely torn down, and the bricks and timbers ecattered in ruins all around. The tanneries along the run were all nearly entirely destroyed. The streets and pavements have been undermined and torn up, and immense piles of stone, drift wood, and timber, accumulated in the principal thoroughfares. Mill dams, stabling, corn houses, fences, farming implements, cattle and swine, were swept away. Mr. David Hollingsworth’s loss is very heavy, as is also that of many other farmers contiguous tothe town. ‘The terror of the scene was in- by the wailings of the women und children in ‘The loss to the merchants, private individuals, orporation, is estimated at near $100,000. One it alone, Mr William Miller, lost near $5000 worth of groceries, oils, &.”” Flag says of the storm in Fauquier “On Wednesday it commenced to rain, and continued during the entire day, and the whole night the rain fell in torrents. Thurs but li tle rain fell—but during ‘Thursday night the storm visited us aga in with redou- bled fury. ‘The destruction has been great on the high- lands—but from therich lowlands of the Rappabannock’ and on the various runs, vast quantities of corn and been swept away. On the river tion meets the eye. of corn have been lost im the small neighborhood around the Springs, at which place we are informed the river was from one-half to three-quarters ofa mile wide. Near- ly all the water courses are past fording. 7 Brooxlyn Intelligence. Cwanten Convertion—Deatn or 4 Memnen.—The members of the Charter Convention met at the Brook!

The reason is obvious. They affect to consider their political influence swamped by the Union Act. and imagine that the proposed junction must be # confed racy, of which Lower Canada would be a separate pro- vince, and the field where their pet nationslity—which, of course, means exclusion of all other but French Canadian influences—would flourish by itself The staunoh radical allies of this party in Upper Canada, however, have declared against the plan, which does not seem to ite much interest among the British part of the population They are far more anxious about that modified arrangement, by which the several provinces would be united for the purposes ofa liberal, admin- Intared post-ofce system. There is at this moment a deputation from New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, in our city, to confer with the Canadian authorities on this =. Nothing is yet known as to the course of their Jn trade, things aro very much at « stand still. The Lachine Canal still oontri- butes to render the business of shipping dull. It is to be opened in a fow days; but the season is now #0 ad- fall in prices, and numerous failures in sa ines renter . In b 7 sbown themselves strong igh €0 foeet the crisia. But while commerce has remai nt, the ener- gles of our people have never been so actively employed ‘as during the past year. The telegraph wires are now stretened from Hamilton in the ‘West to Quebeo in the it, and instantaneous communication is thuwafford- ed almost throughout the continent. The link from Montreal to Quebec was first tried on the 4th inst. A line is also contracted for from Troy to Montreal. There is no doubt that before the spring, we shall have the complete British North American line, terminating Halifax. The Lachine railway has been also com- ‘this summer, with the exception of the rails; and the Portland line considerably advanced. There has been some difficulty as to the gauge to be adopted for this line; but the medium gauge of 6 ft, 6 in. has now been defini- tively determinedon. There has been a short railway of wood completed on the Ottowa; and the Great Western line {s commenced. ‘These are strides in improvement, but they are not all. Through the exertions of one of our Stee nited States, italists have been induced to declare themselves ready to take up all the stock fora canal between the St. Lawrence and Lake Champlain, ‘This cut, of about twenty miles in length, will unite the main lines of C: commanication to those magnificent inland waters, which the Hudson Ri- ver, the Northern Canal, and the Lake, now extend con- tinuously from the city of New York in 40°, 42’ N, lat. to St Johns, in Canada, on the 46th degree. ‘Mining, too, has been actively commenced at the ex- treme north-west corner of the Province, hitherty en- tirely neglected. The committee of the Quebec Com; ny have recently presented a report to their phos ag ents, in which they state that in one of their veins, which has been traced for 100 fathoms, there are, at least, 10,000 tons of.ore, capable of producing from 30 to 60 per cent. of pure copper. Decked vessels have been already launched upon this distant sea; and there can be no doubt that these operations will speedily give oc- casien for the last connecting link between the great chain of lakes. The Quebec Company have lately sur- veyed boyd ge e round the Sault Ste. Marie, and state that £60,000 will complete a ship canal, or £25,000 a rail- way, between Lakes Superior and Huron. They declare their readiness to joia the other companies in the latter enterprize. ‘The same spirit has been displayed in lesser under- takings. In Montreal and To-onto, gas companies have been formed to oppose the old monopolies, In Toronto, where the charge is now 26s, for 1,000 feet of gas, stock to,the amount of £9,000, was taken up im a few days. A new steamer has been built at Bytown, on the Otta- ‘wa, 178 feet long, 24 feet broad, 100 horse power, and calculated to run 17 miles per hour. A cotton factory is about to be established at St. Catherines. This will be the fourth which has been put in operation in the Provinee, within a short period. ‘The rapid closing of the season of course diminishes the number of arrivals of emigrants, and thus the hospi- tals and asylums are less crowded than they have been at earlier periods in the year. The ments are, however, still extremely distressing. Thus,on the 1st October, there were in hospital at Grosse Isle 1152, of whom 868 were discharged, and eleven died that day, ing 783; of these about seven hundred were fe jents, and the rest, in ral, afflicted with small pox. At the Marine Hospital, Quebec, there were on the same day 443 patients. At the Sheds, Montreal, on the Sth, there were 776 emigrants, and eight deaths dur- ing the day.

It is melancholy to have to mention, in connection with this subject, the deaths of the Rev Dr. Power, R. C. Bishop of Toronto, and that of the Rev. R. Ande son,an Episcopal clergyman, of Quebec. Both th gentlemen contracted the fever, of which they died, in the discharge of their sacred functions among the sick.

At Hamil- ‘ton his visit was so timed as to enable him to be pre- sent at an exhibitirn of produce and manufactures, which is represented as by far the .best ever seen in Canada. He afterwards dined with the members of the society, by whom the exhibition was got up. His frank and kindly postprandial speeches may, perhaps, be of in- terest to our readers in England.

There is, comparatively, nothing doing in stocks, and prices have settled down to about their lowest level, and holders have very little to fear from bad news from any quarter. Good news would give a very great impetus to the fancies, and prices would rapidly riseto about their former level. We are daily expecting later accounts from Europe, and hourly looking for advices from the seat of war. The general impression is that intelligence from both quarters will be favorable. Stock speculators for a rise, show this to be their opinion, by the little dis- position they manifest to reduce the quantity of stock they hold, We cannot anticipate anything very im- portant from Mexico, in any shape. ‘The accounts re- ceived relative to the withdrawal of the American army from the capital are not generally credited, and as for the prospect of a peace, it is universally admitted to be out of the question. What have we, therefore, to expect from that quarter but accounts of the progress of the army intaking possession of the country and establish ing a form of government according to the existing oir- cumstances? Nothing from that quarter is to be ap- prehended, and we look for news from Mexieo with more hope than fear. - The annexed table exhibits the quotations for stocks in this market for each day of the past week, and at the close of the week previous:— Quotations von tHe Principal Stocns in THE New ronm, Makxert. ” T Notes 6's... 10134 ON 4 iid and’ ane ak Now YorkSuteess.— mm o's 99% 100 100 — 1005 10094 — nn in - = = 10% 42} 4 2 a of pet ene ear se, ‘A comparigon of prices ruling at the close of the mar- ket yesterday, with those current at the close of the pre- vious week, exhibits an advance in Treasury notes of 3 per “cent; Pennsylvania 5’s % ; Harlem 34; Long Island 3; Stonington 334; and a decline in Illinois of %; Reading Railread 114; Norwich and Worcester 2%; Far- mers’ Loan 4; Canton Company 15; North American Trust 4.

The average for the week last,year was about thirty per cent, and for the week this year about twenty-six per cent. The businessat the custom house during the past week has been very limit- ed compared with previous weeks this fall. The import trade for this fall is about over, and notwithstanding the antiolpations formed early in the season jrela- tive to an immense importation, the amount of . merchandize received has not,been very large, compared with the corresponding season in previous years. The value of merchandize exported from this port last week to foreign ports, was more than double the value of the importa for the same period. ‘he quantity of certain articles exported from this port for the week ending Oct. 16th inclusive, distin- guishing the destination, has been as annexed:— Exronrts or Paopucs rrom tux Port or New Yo: 3,823 bbis; Lops, 40 bales; flour, 1,109 bbls; cotton. 265 tierces; al, 41 bbls; corn. f wax, 5,104 Ibe; wheat, 4,341 bushels; clover seed, 11,608 Ibe; lard, 14,036 do. ‘To France—Staves, 164,000; cotton, 2,550 bales; rosin, 500 bbls.

It will be perceived that the shipments of breadstuffs to Great Britain continue only to limited extent. The amount of duties on imports received at Charles- ton, 8.C., for the month of September, 1847, was 61,000 against $22,000 for the corresponding month in 1846, gbowing an increase of $39,000 in Sept. 1847.
