w FRIDAY JANUARY ». IS66. AMEttlCAN EMIGRATION TO BRAZIL.. Through the kindness of a friend we have on our table u copy of the Anglo-Brazilian Times, dated 2d Dec., 1865. It contains a full and interesting account ot the mission of Gen. Wood, of Mississippi, who went out to Brazil on a tour of observa tion as the investigating agent of a large number of Southern citizens who desire to emigrate to that distant empire, if its agricultural capacities and social and political condition should be found, on examination, to be of a description and character corres ponding with the flattering statements wl'icli i nve appeared in the American press in r g ird thereto. As i iiis colonization movement, from the peculiar circumstances attending its origin, bn- attracted a large share of the attention of our people, we do not know, really, that we could render them a more acceptable service, as chroniclers of current events, than to lay before the public a brief synopsis of the gra phic and cheering report of Qen. Wood, which appears in the paper referred to. In doing so, however, we disclaim any desire to perpetuate or to intensify the disposition which has been manifested by many of the heat citizens of our country, who feel that they are under the iron heel of oppression, to seek an asylum in strafige lands. On the contrary, although they have our deepest sympathies we would admonish them against precipitate action in the consideration of a matter the denouement of which is fraught, it may be, with doubtful, nay. with evil consequences to themselves and to their native land. Believing, as we do, that the just and merciful policy of our patriotic Chief Magistrate will ultimately achieve a glorious triumph in the great struggle with fanaticism and sectional hatred, we should be derelict to our conscience and treacherous to the best interests of these suffering States if we hesitated to declare our conviction that those of our dear people who contemplate with certainty the sad alternative of self expatriation should pause in the execution of their purposes, and await witli hope, if not with confidence, the issue of the coDtlict. If, despite the noble resistance of the Pre sident, aided by the conservative masses of the North, proscriptive radicalism should win the day and gain possession of the seeptre of power, which its leading expo nents have assured us in advance, will be wielded with a vigorous and unmerciful hand, then, surrounded by the perils of such a crisis, the doomed victims will be driven ti act as best they may to escape from the fury of the impending storm. It is in this painful aspect ot affairs that Gen. Wood's mission and ' "jers of like character become pregnant with interest to the people of the South, as indicating a mode of deliverance, which, al though not as miraculous, to human visicn, in its modus operandi as the supernatural de liverance lroin bondage of the chiidreu of Isr et, may, neveriheless prove as effective and i.rovideiilial in its grand results. Asking the indulgence of the reader for haviug premised the foregoing, by way of introduction, we proceed with our synopsis. Gen. Wood left the capitoi of Brazil, with the permission of the Emperor, who had him liberally supplied with all the necessary ap pliances for his journey, on the 17th October, 186f>, for the interior provinces of Pas Paulo. Parana, Rio Grande and San Catharine, which are embraced in the southern half of Brazil. He and his parly were conveyed in a Government steamer to the interior town of Santos, and thence they proceeded by railway to the village of Mugi, at or near the foot of the Serra do Cu- batus. Here they procured mules to convey themselves • and baggage to the village of A to, perched on the summit of a hi—1 mountain. The scenery in this vicinity b ci ioed a9 being grand and awe-inspir- ; the rugged mountain’s peaks and side*-, and apparen'ly bottomless chasms b. >\v, all speaking eloqently of the sublim ity of nature. They proceeded from this point by railroad to San Paulo, and wer- struck with the difficulties which bad been surmounted in constructing a road across nearly precipitous mountains. The country on the line of this road is, to all appearance, poor and impracticable for successful or re munerative husbandry. The party remained at the .city of Sau Paulo no longer than was required to obtain a necessary supply of mules, horses, &c., which were furnished by the local govern ment, for their journey to the interior. Their departure was effected, under the most pro mising auspices, and during several days’ travel passed over a country the land of which gradually improved in quality, and tbe general aspect of the surface was decid ed!.! more pleasiug. Here, for the first time i lie journey, were seen fine coffee planta- t is u either side of the road- The people i i ..nting this portion of the country are g 'tier J.y educated and intelligent, and mani- tenied an eager desire for the parly to find in the province ot S. Paulo a suitable locality lor t c r luture homes. They freely placed tlien.- sl.es and their effects at the disposal of Gen. W..od, to aid in facilitating him in consummat ing his mission. Prom this point to Araquara, five days' journey, large tracts of good land were passed over, producing, with unmis- trkeable evidence of .prosperity and success, c ffee, cotton, tobacco, sugar cane, corn, beuns, mandioca, fruit, and other rich es sentials of exportation and home consump tion. Arriving at the town of Brotns, in which the party halted fora few hours, they directed their course to Jahu, and ft was on this par' of the route they passed over a country the greatest part of which delighted them all. Not that it presented large coffee.* cotton or sugar plantations, for it was ap parently a new country with but little of the land under cultivation, and that c.f the most crude and simple character, but the land itself presented every appearance of fertility, and would, if industriously and scientifically cultivated, yield to the farmer larger profits aud an ampie remuneration for the outlay of clearing, fencing and reducing it from its present wild state to a condition fit for the plow or the accessories, of enlightened and progressive industry. Continuing their journey to Japo their in terest in the country became unabated. In this country they at last passed the culti vated lands, the rich and wide spread Fagen- das, the cities, towns and villages, denoting the progress of civilization and enligten* ent, and they had reached the western fron* Jr settlements of the protifiCe of 8. Paul"- fit was here they struck the margin of the country occupied by the yrild, savage In dian, men untamed aud inimical to the pro gress of bis more enlightened brother of the Caucasian race. - The captivating features of this remarka ble section must indeed be extraordinary, when General Wood suddenly determined to extend his explorations no further, consider ing that he had discovered the Eldorado of that immense Empire. He says in bis report that he had found the country most happily suited to the purposes in view, and therefore decided, withont proceeding to the provinces of Parano, Rio Grande and Santa C'atheiin, as he had contemplated, to apply to the Im perial Government for permission to colonize it. The tract thus selected lies not far from Araquara, and includes a beautiful and con venient site for a town, between two small rivers about twenty-four hundred yards apart, and about eight millions of acres of land lying on both sides of the Jahu aod ex tending to the river Tiete. It nan be readily brought into railway communication with the 9- Paulo railway, and has the further advantage of there being adjoining to it aD immense extent ot fine unoccupied Govern ment, land into which a developing settlement can develop itself. . , \Vith the climate the General was well pleased. It is mild, moderate and very com fortable, the morning and sights being cool, and no frigidity or frosts exhibted in winter, and then in low grounds. Iu summer there is no insupportable heat, pleasant breezes constantly arising and being waited over all the lands high and low. The report closes with the assurance that it requires no stretch of imagination to de pict truthfully what such a country can be made with the appliances of industry and ait; that with the aid of science, labor and energy it can be made the garden of Brazil and of the world. THE LOaT STEAMSHIP CONSTITU TION. We learn from the officers of the steam ship Leo that, on the morning of Sunday, the 24th ult.. when that steamer, the Consti tution and the Sau Salvador were lying in Port Royal Harbor, having put in there in stress of weather, Captain Greenman, just be fore the steamers left, sent a letter aboard the Leo, to be carried by them to Wakcman, Gookin & Dickinson, the New York agents of the Star Line. The boats' crew stated in explanation that the Constitution's propeller had been injured, and that it was feared she would be very late into New York in consequence. When the boats went out, however, the Constitution showod good speed, and no defect was manifest. We shall soon probably have fuller details of the Constitution's loss, with a lull list of those who perished aed those who were saved. THE NAVIGATION QUESTION. It will constitute one of the objects of Con gress to institute a thorough examination into our system of navigation laws. They were adopted soon after our government went into operation, and they have continued to form a part ot our maritime code until the preseut day. We have imitated our British ances tors in this branch of their domestic policy as in many others of a commercial charac ter. It was to long Parliament we owe the origin of these laws. We date the statute that was passed in '16 as the parent of those subsequent enactments that constituted the code of laws to which it is supposed is owing the maritime power of England. The entire subject, including the Recipro city treaty, should receive the careful consid eration of Congress. The Protectionists will take our maritime interests under their guar dianship as they have the manufac turing interests of the country. The ship owner has net called on Congress for peculiar protection, and we hope he will not. His claim is as good as that of the manu facturer. The price of the materials of ship building has been enhanced in common with all other articles, but he has tried heretofore to maintain a competition with the European ship builder by his energy and skill AccrDBNT Insurance.—We have several times published paragraphs showing the util ity of patronizing Accident Insurance Com panies, where the expenses are very small, and the benefits, in case of serious or fatal accidents, very large. Col. Aaron Wilbur, of the Home Insurance office, agent of the Travellers’ (Accident) Insurance Company, of Hartford, just before the sailing ot the ill-fated Constitution,from Savannah, insured two of. the passengers against accidents for one mouth, they paying only two dollars each. The result is that if, as reported, they are lost, the family of each will reeeive one' thousand dollars, payable here or at Hart ford, as soon as the deaths are authenti cated. ("Communicated.

At the monthly sale of coal in New York on Wednesday last prices declined from fifty cents to two dollars per ton. Buyers were of the impression that coal will not be lower this winter, aud may perhaps he higher* Stove coal is now selling in New York at #9 37 1-2 per2,340 pounds, while re tailers are helling the same coal at $11 37 1-2 per 2,000 pounds. The difference In weight nearly compensates them for the expense ot bringing the coal to the eity and screening it. Consequently they wre making a profit of about $2 on every ton sold. Advices from Arizona represent that there is constant fighting between the Apache In dians and the white settlers. Twenty-eight soldiers sent out ou the 1st of November are missing: J J l J There were only two homicides reported iu Nashville Thursday last: Dick Dobbs killed Fayette Godwin, and one policeman mortally w*vnded a fellow-guardian of the public peace. The death of King Leopold of Belgium was the chief topic of discussion in English and Continental papers at last advices. A French paper contains a hint of the possible division of the little kingdom between Eng land, France and Prussia; but it seems to be the general opinion that Leopold II will not be disturbed. The latest news from Japan states that the quarrel between the Tycoon and Prince Na gato had been settled. A steamer was an nounced to sail direct from Yokohami to Suez with a cargo of silkworms’ eggs, A dispatch from Kansas City reports that those representing the railroad interests of that section and Texas are in consultation to perfect arrangements for the rapid comple tion of the important road running from Kan sas City to Galvestou and the lines which ate to connect with it. / A Jot of handsome furniture, twenty-one pieces in all, arrived in Richmond on Mon day, for Mrs. Gen. R. E. Lee, a gift from the ladies of Baltimore. The town of Cbio, in the Island of Scio, has been almost wholly overthrown by an earthquake, the two lighthouses in the port only remaining uninjured The people, fly ing from the ruins, have encamped, without shelter, iu the neighboring fields. A W ashington correspondent writes: There is a well grounded impression that the Sec retary of the Treasury will at an early day commence the funding ot from filly to one hundred millions, in the shape of certificates of indebtedness, and the first issues of seven- thirty bonds and the compound interest- bearing notes. A letter from Guadaloupe, dated Novem bar 25, states that tbe cholera had broken out there, and was committing great ravages at Bosse Tcrrea, a town of 6,000 inhabitants. One hundred and seven fatal cases occurred on the 22d. Georgetown, following tlic example of Washington, opened the polls to test the sense of the citizens on the subject of uegio suffrage on Thuraday last. Of the over ae- ven hundred votes cast, only one was in fa vor of thus extending the franchise. The Rome Courier says that Cherokee, Geprgia, is decidedly the white man’s coun try^ The colored population are gradually withdrawing from this section, and thrifty, enterprising citizens, from Tennessee, Vir ginia, Middle and Lower Georgia, and other sections, are constantly moving in Thad. Stevens closed his late speech in the House of Representatives with the following characteristic peroration: “Sir, this doctrine of a ‘white man’s gov ernment’ is as obnoxious as the infamous sentiment that damned the late Chief Justice to everlasting fame, and, I fear, to everlast ing fire.” A correspondent writes from Galveston, Texas: “Cattle are selling within fifty miles of here at dne dollar ana fifty cents a head and at that price thousands of beef can be bought." It is understood that, in future, the sup port of—Abe policy of the Administration will be made a test, in all cases, ot Federal appointments. A fire broke out early Friday morning in the steamboat depot at GrotM, Conn., which resulted in its destruction, together with that of the telegraph office and the steamboat Commonwealth, grounded at tbe dock and filled with freight. Tbe total loss is estimated at $1,500,000. The employees of the boat barely escaped with their lives. Hon. John Ray, member of Congress from Northern Louisiana, writes on the 6th of De-. cember, from Washington, that he is satisfied that the President’s reconstruction policy will be abandoned or not be carried out at present by the admission of Southern mem bers into Congress. - * Two more Fenians have been convicted and sentenced, the one to twenty years’ and the other to ten years’ penal servitude. Twenty thousand British troops were stationed in Ireland, and, aa an additional precaution, the Channel fleet had been ordered to winter off the coast. ■ , A young man named Benry accidentally ran against a negro soldier in Atlanta a few nights since.
