There is enough in the subjoined extract from
the Washington Correspondence of the Journal Of
Commerce to excite alarm in the public mind, pre-
pared it is, by what has passed, for almost any
quarrel in which the Executive may think ft in the
execution of its newborn notion Of " continental
policy" to involve the country. Let us hope and
trust that for once the correspondent of the Journal
has been msinformed and that things have not
gone quite as far he supposes towards involving
us in another war;

This Government appears 10 be the eue of some d1icuy
Wa BRAzIL. Governments acting upon rash counses
easily involve nations in have and heard enough
convince that the present Administration is assuming
tone of nsoence and menace towards the Government of Bra

commercial intercourse and, due Of time, to


The principles forth in Gen. SCOTS proclamation apply
strongly Brazil but the leading official paper advocated

and pointing the duty which principles,
and the solemn obligations assumed BY this Government

On further consideration, indeed, Of the rumors
referred to by the intelligent correspondent of the
Journal of Commerce, we incline to think that
there must be some misunderstanding on the sub
ject. 1t was generally believed, six months ago,
that the unfortunate difference at Rio Janero be-
tween our Officers and the Government of that
country had been satisfactorily adjusted; and we
have heard of no new outbreak to constitute the
ground Of further controversy.


With regard to the rumored intention of the Co.
vernment Of Brazil to recall the Chevalier DE LIS
BOA, the truly esiimable and universally popular
Representative of the Government of Brazil at this
Government, if there were indeed any solid lounda-
ton for such rumor, we should consider it an un-
happy augury as to the disposition of the Brazilian
Government to maintain, on its part, the friendly
relations with the United States which have hither-
to been so happily cultivated during his mission to
this country.
