INDEPENDENT STATES OF AMERICA. BRAZIL,--Decree establishing a national coat of arms, and national flag for Brazil.

"The kingdom of Brazil, of which I am regent and perpetual defender, having declared its political emancipation, and being on the point of assuming, among the great family of nations, that place which belongs to it as a great state, free and independent, it is of the most pressing necessity that it should have a coat of arms, or escutcheons, distinct from those of Portugal and Algarves,

until now omitted, and characteristic of the circumstances of this great and rich continent. And as I desire to preserve for Brazil the coat of arms given to the kingdom by the King, Don Emanuel, in commemoration of the first name bestowed upon it, when happily discovered; and to honour the nineteen provinces which are comprized between the two great rivers forming its natural boundaries, and the integrity of which I have sworn to maintain; I have been pleased, with the concurrence of my council of state, to determine as follows: The coat of arms of Brazil shall henceforth be, a sphere upon a red cross, and in a field of gold, with a circle of nineteen stars of az.; in the lower part a dragon, symbol of the house of Braganza; and in the upper part a royal crown. The mercantile flag shall be a parallelogram of gold, inscribed on a green quadrilateral figure, with a sceptre in the centre, upon the red cross.

'Considering that, by the eleventh article of the fundamental law of the Republic, it is their duty to fix and make known the arms which hereafter are to distinguish the said Republic among the independent nations of the earth, I have thought proper to decree, and hereby do decree, as follows:

Article 1. The armorial ensigns hereafter used, shall be two cornucopias filled with the fruits and flowers of the frigid, temperate, and torrid districts, surrounding the Columbian fasces, which shall be composed of a bundle of lances, and the battle-axe placed sideways, bows and arrows crossed in the centre, and tied below with a tri-coloured ribbon.
