The threatened rupture between Brazil and Buenos Ayres begins now to assume a serious as pect, and it is probable our next advices will bring -dntelligence of the beginning of open hostilities. A revulsion has taken place in the commercial circles of Montevideo, and some of the heaviest merchants have gone by the board.
