Rio Janeiro dates to May 23rd state that Deque de Casia Uas, on the part of the Brazilian government, gov-ernment, presented to the Imperial Chambers an elaborate and carefully prepared address Ibr the emancipation of all claves belonging to the crown. This act, if it becomes law, manumits thousands who are now laborers in the tiimous diamond mines, and also those engaged in the construction of dock aud public works at Rio de Janeiro, Bohia, PernambucoandMoraubam; besides be-sides a large force employed ou the overnmeut railway. The provisions of the bill also releanes the convicts and slaves on the island Ferdinand de Na-ronha, Na-ronha, after seven years servitude, their owners to be indemnified from the Imperial treasury. The bill meets with determined opposition, it is said, by the conservatives in the Brazilian Senate, but the liberals are strong and will likely carry the humane measure. In the lower house there is au overwhelming over-whelming liberal majority. The ewau-cipation ewau-cipation bdl has always been a pet measure of the Brazilian Democrats, Dem-ocrats, and the Emperor will encounter but leeble opposition. The great objection to tho measure appears to be, not so much the justice of the act but its hasty enibroement. The law as it uow stands provides a system of gradual grad-ual emancipation Ibr slaves belonging to pnvaie persons only, while the Emperor's hill decrees the immediate ujauumission of all slaves owned by the Crown. |
