BRAZIL.
(BY EMitJTRIC TTXISGKArH.—COI'YKIGHr.) Rio Dβ Janeiro. November 19. General Foxseca corrupted the garrison and seized the capital on Thursday night. Ho proceeded to Pcdropolis in the morning and informed the Emperor in the presence of his family that he was deposed. Dom Pedro received the intelligence with composure, and within an hour he and his family wore placed on board the mail steamer which took her departure for Lisbon. A Brazilian war vessel escorted the mail steamer to sea. Brazilian stock lias declined seven per cent, in the London market. The Government presented Dora Pedro on leaving with the sum of five hundred and eighty thousand pounds, and agreed to allow him a pension of eighty thousand pounds per annum, and the usual allowances to the Emperor's family are to be continued. Censors prevent the press publishing the truth as to the revolt, but there is an impression abroad that it was owing to the favour shown by the Emperor to the priests.
