Doi PEDRO, Emperor of Brazil, accom
panied by the Empress, landed in New
York, on Saturday, and attended St.. Pat
rick's cathedral on Sunday morning, and
the Hippodrome in the evening.
MR. SPEAKER KERR does not want to
be returned to Congress again: He is an
exception to canis the generally—he won't
return to his vomit. He is, however, de
termined to verify the fact that dog won't
eat dog.
WE would suggest that some one of the
honest and square men of the Legislature,
we mean of the House, Ilse in his seat and
send to the clerk's desk, and have read
Conway's "Bribed Legislator." It would
be a capital thing, in view of the late de
velopments. A copy might be franked to
"Uncle Petaire." He would, no doubt,
enjoy it.
WE have every evidence that the Re
publican party of this county, the party
proper,, not those who are anything and
everything for office, who will barter away
their tinny souls for a small mess of un •
savory pottage, is awakening from its leth
argy, and is arbout to go to work in real
earnest. The people, the individual mem
bers of the party, arc resolving, and this
augurs well.
IN a letter to a friend in Michigan Mr.
Blaine says: "The story of my ever hav
ing received money or anything else of
value from the Union Pacific Railroad
Company,. or any of its officers or agents,
is not only false but absurd; there is not
the remotest foundation for it." He begs
his friend to possess his soul in peace, "as
I will never be injured by stories of that
kind." "J. B. is sly, sir, devilish sly ;"
you don't catch him.
A Goon part of the Philadelphia dole•
gation, in the Lower House, appears to be
very accommodating. In fact, they re
niiud us very much of the stock market—
we do not mean the cattle market, oh, no—
we mean the market where "puts" and
"calls" are practiced. These fellows are
always "on call." In truth their names are
hawked about and auctioned off like par
rots at an ornithological fair, and there is
not much' difference in the price. A good
intelligent parrot would command more
money. Shame on thee, Philadelphia !
Tars few vigorous words which we ad
dressed to the litpUliecans of this county,
last week, we are glad to hear, have had
an excellent effect. . Quite a number of
leading men, in their respective districts,
have called upon us during the week and
assured us, though they had felt sadly dis
counted and disposed to give up the ship,
and we do not blame them either, that
they now, in view . of all the circumstances,
mean to "pick their flints and try again."
This is manly. -We like the make of this
class of men. There is nothing truculent
or subservient about them. They war for
principles, for a pure and wholesome ad
ministration of public affairs, and for them
defeat has no terrors.
REPTIBLICANS of Huntingdon county,
you who belong to the party because you
have faith in it, be assured that it is only
necessary for you to go to work, in earnest,
and the county can be redeemed. Do not
flatter yourselves, however, that it is an
easy task. Huntingdon is scarcely a Re
publican county ! The one thousand ma
jority of former years has dwindled to
almost or quite a cypher. There are va
rious causes for this change. First, the
factional feuds; secondly, the suspension
of operations at Pennsylvania, Huntingdon
and Barree furnaces; thirdly, the building
of the East Broad Top railroad which is
ran in the interest of the Democracy ; and
fourthly, the large floating population in
Huntingdon. All these are against us.—
To redeem the county we mast count on
nothing in oar favor; we must expect the
Democrats, including the trading Repub
licans, to start with an equal chance with
us. But we have sound principles and
good men against the most imbecile states
manship that has ever disgraced any coun
try. Republicans, you cannot hesitate.—
It behooves you to do all in your power to
save the 'country from such imbecility.
WITHDRAWING OF NATIONAL
BANK CIRCULATION.
The Philadelphia Ledger, in its money
column says : By reference to reports
from Washington, the withdrawal of na
tional bank circulation, which has been
going on quietly but steadily fur some time
past, is increasing in volume to such an
extent that if continued it will soon become
a most important factor in solving the
nancial problem of the day. At the pres
ent time the banks, of their own volition,
are working contraction surely and stead
ily. The Boston Advertiser has a compila.
tion showing that during 3 single aeek
bonds to secure circulation have been with
drawn by them to the amount of $2,347,-
050. This withdrawal, which requires the
deposit of 90 per cent of legal-tender notes,
is practically a contraction of the currency
to that amount, anal if continued in the
same proportion, the contraction will, of
course, amount to over eight millions a
month—twice as much as Secretary Mc
Cullough ever tliought of attempting to
accomplish. The withdrawal of bonds fir
the week ending March 11th, was $1,055,-
000, and for the week ending March 4th.
$781,900. With more or le.s interruption
the movement has been going on for
. a
long time, with the consequent result of a
contraction of nearly twenty-five millions
of dollars in the circulation since the first
of April, 1875. During that month the
withdrawal of bonds was a little more than
a million, in May a little less than a tail
lion, in June over three millions, in .July
a little less than a million, in August a
Cale wore than a million, in September
over two and a quarter millions, in Octo
ter over four and three-quarter millions, in
_November a little more than a million, in
December over two and a half millions. in
January about two willions, in February
aboutfinrr and three-patter and
the month of March probably exceeded
all previous months in the amount of with
drawals.
EDITOR
Our Harrisburg Letter
Ili - utisnur.(l, April 18, 18Th
A. joint caucus, of Democratic soilators
and members, having last week agreed on
a final adjournment on the sth of May,
and both branches of the Legislature hav
ing ratified their action, new life was in
fused into the members anda large amount
of business transacted. The House being
away behind the Senate held two sessions
a day on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday, and aceomplished
as much work as was done at the begin
ning of the session in three or four weeks.
The members who bad been laying their
plans for a protracted session, and conse
quent increased compensation, realizing
that continued obstruction of business
would be of no service to them pecuniari
ly, threw no obstacles in the way of legis
lathe progress. There was a marked dis
position showed to get away from the cap
ital at the time designated, and this deter
mination will increase the next few weeks
of the session. As an illustration of the
amount of business done, it may be stated
that, on Friday, nearly seventy local and
general bills were passed second reading,
and on a previous day 239 bills were put
through first reading. The calander of the
House is very large, and scores of bills will
probably fall for want of time to consider
them, notwithstanding the progress which
has recently been made, the most import
ant legislation will, however, have been
perfected. Among the bills which have
lately passed the House is the General In
surance Bill, prepared by or at, the in
stance of Commissioner Foster, who is
taking a great interest in it. The bill has
reached the Senate. The Committee, to
whom it had been intrusted, having re
ported it with necessary amendments It.
will probably pass this week. Mr. Foster
attaches much importanCe to it, and
thinks it will bring around a needed re
form in insurance as carried on in Penn
sylvania.
The House bill, fur the ventilation of
bituminous coal mines, has been materially
amended by the Senate committee, several
provisions bearing with considerable se
verity in owners and operators of mines
having either been removed or modified to
make the burden less onerous. This
measure is of particular importance to
western Pennsylvania, and both coal op
erators and miners have given the Legis-
lature their views as to its merits and de
merits. The Democrats, of the House,
endangered the success of the bill by con
ferring on the Secretary of Internal Affairs
joint power with the Governor to appoint
three mine inspectors, who are to receive
$2,000 a year. The Senate committee
has restored the provisions in the bill
vesting the appointing power solely in the
Governor. Unless the Democrats of the
House recede from their position in this
respect, the bill may fail to become a law.
The ventilation measure has been before
the legislature fur several years.
The general printing bill, which origi
nated iu the House, has also been reported
from committee in the Senate. It provides
that the contract for the State printing
and binding, shall be given for four years
to the lowest bidder, from July 1, 1877,
the proposals to be accompanied by secu
rities for $15,000. The superintendent.
of public printing is to be appointed at
the same time for four years. The con
tract for furnishing paper to the State
shall be for two years. Provision is made
for the printing and binding of the follow-.
Ting documents : Copies of Pamphlet Laws,
10,000; journals of each House, 500 ; legis
lative and executive documents, 1,000;
Governor's Annual Message, 15,500; Au
ditor General's report on Finances, 10,500 ;
Auditor General'sreport on banks, 10,500 ;
report of the Secretary of Infernal Affairs,
10,000; report of railroa!s, 6,600 ; report
of the commissioner of the bureau of sta
tistics of labor and agriculture, 6,000 ;
Adjutant General's report, 10,500 ; re
port of the superintendent of public in
struction,2o,soo ;. report of superintend
ent of sodiers' orphans, 10,000 ; report
of board of charities, 5,500; report of
State Treasurer, 10,500 ; report of com
missioner of insurance on fire and marine
insurance, 5.500; on life and accidental
insurance, 5,500 ; mine inspectors report,
5,500 ; legislative hand-books, 10,000 ;
copies of bills for each House, 450 ; cal
enders, 300. The Superintendents of
Public Instruction is authorized to have
printed triennially 20,000 copies of the
school laws and decisions, to be distributed
among the 2.000 school districts in the
State. The new County bill has received
an effectual quietus, the House having de
feated it and consequently voted down a
resolution to reconsider the vote by which
it was lost. The bill having been amend
ed so as to render Luzerne the only coun
ty devissible, the friends of other rich
counties voted against it.
The bill fixing the salaries in counties
containing less than 150.00 inhabitants,
as it passed the House, provides that
county officers receiving $3,000 in fees,
etc., and over; shall be entitled to that
amount, and fifty per cent. of fees, etc.,
above $3,000. In counties where fees
do not reach $3,000 existing laws will
apply.
The House and Senate boom bill inves
tigating committees have examined about
250 witnesses, embracing nearly all of the
members of the House. Three witnesses
made important statements. Representa•
,five Petroff, of Philadelphia, recited with
minuteness, negotiations. which had been
going on between him and Journal Clerk
Skinner, the latter having offered $7,000
for fourteen votes. Petroff claims that he
was acting as a decoy to entrap the lunt
bermen, and Skinner says his operations
were a "blind," intended to interest the
Philadelphia members sufficiently to con
sent to a postponement of the considera•
tion of the bill until the chances for its
passage would be better.
Representative Douglass, of Philadel
phia, testified that Embick, secrerary of
the Lumbermen's Exchange, had offered
him $3OO for his vote for the boom bill.
Douglass says he had a knowledge of Skin
ner's operations but placed no confidence
in them—that thelegotiations were in
tended to deceive, and that the money
would not have been paid over if the Phila
delphia members whose votes were pro
posed to be purchased had recorded them
selves for the boom bill. The most start
ling testimony was that of Representative
Lynott, of Luzerne, who stated before the
Senate committee, on Friday, that be re
ceived $3OO from ex-Senator Beck, fath•
er in•law to Embick, after be bad voted
fur the bill on second reading, as a proof
of his statement be handed the committee
the money. Ex Senator Beek ethphat•
ically denies Lynott's story, and claims to
have had noeommunieation with the mem
ber from Luzerne. Lynott has not yet
been examined by the House committee
and probably will not be, as be has dis
appeared. His expulsion for either bri•
bery or perjury is almost certain, Peter
Herdic bus telegraphed from New York
that he will appear before the House com
mittee after visiting Boston. Nothing has
been heard from Emblek,
The Lemont Furnace, Fayette County,
Pa., is turning out about thirty three tons
of iron per day.
Arrival of the Emperor and Empress of
Brazil at New York•
NE‘v ' ..A.prit I ti —Dom Pe , iro 11..
Emper. .1
r of ;razil, arrived in this city
yesterday on the steamer lievelius. The
imperial visitor Ivas by the
Empress of Brazil, his suite, tuelo.img the
Viscount. de Bon lietcro, ex Minist,r of
State, ex Chamberlain of the Emperor
Vice A d ira I Delatoar. Sen I; or de Ma cedo,
Dr. Souza routes, K. lienniog. Dona
Josefine de Fonseca Casta, accompanies the
Empress as lady of honor. In accordance
with the expressed desire of the Emperor
the reception accorded was entirely desti
tute of formality or display on the part of
our government and municipal authorities.
The simple programme previously arrang
ed was quietly carried out, the occasion
being marked by only those appropriate
surroundings which official courtesy would
suggest. The steamer Hevelius, which
conveyed the imperial party, left Rio Jan
eiro on March 26, and had fine weather
throughout the voyage. 11cr arrival was
expected yesterday, and bright lookout
was maintained during the morning. She
was signalled about hall-past ten o'clock;
and the intelligence was promptly forward
ed to the city. The day was all that could
be desired, and it was generally regretted
that the Emperor's inclinations were not
in consonance with the feelings of the
many who desired to pay him a fitting and
popular tribute of welcome on the occasion
of his advent to our shores. The Hevelius
rounded the point of Sandy Hook shortly
after 11 o'clock and as she passed through
the Narrows a salute was fired from Fort
Wadsworth and soon after the vessel came
to anchor. Meanwhile. the deputation of
cabinet ministers, consisting of Mr. Ham
ilton Fish, secretary of state; Mr. George
M. Robeson, secretary of the navy; Mr.
Taft, secretary of war, and Major General
Winfield S. Hancock, commander of the
military division of the Atlantic, and with
his staff and the Portuguese minister, the
baron of Sant Anua, proceeded down . the
bay to greet the Emperor. The Brazil
ian minister, A. P. De Carvablo Borges,
the Brazilian consul general, Dr. Salvador
de Mendoza, Dr. Mieholas Mora, Senor
P. Paeg and others had already preceded
them.
The Emperor received the deputation
surrounded by the other passengers of the.,
steamer. After a formal introduction Sec
retary Fish delivered a brief address of
welcome, as fullqws : "The President of the
United States has deputed the secretary of
war, the secretary ofstate and the secretary
of the navy, accompanied by the vice ad-
miral of the navy and the major General
of the army, to congratulate Your Majesty
upon your arrival on our shores and upon
the safe termination of your voyage and to
tender his welcome and that of the people
of the United States on the occasion of
your visit to this country. He anticipates
with pleasure a personal interview with
Your Majesty as soon as may suit your
convenience."
The Emperor simply expressed his
thanks fur the reception given and seemed
more disposed to enter into a friendly con
versation with the members of the party
than to make any kind of official response.
He asked for General Sherman, whom he
said he desired very much to see, and was
inf wined that he was inavoidably detained
by his military duties in the west. "Ali!"
remarked the Einperor,"General Hancock,
too; his name is well known in connection
with the war." His Majesty then shook
hands warmly with General Hancock, and
subsequently the members of the deputa-
tion were presented to the Empress in the
main saloon, Upon returning to the deck
Secretary Fish informed the Emperor that
the sloop of war Alert was in waiting to
convey him and the royal party to the city,
but the Emperor politely declined the in
vitation and reiterated in a. pleasant way
his sentiments in regard to a public dem
onstration, stating that it was his desire to
be regarded only in the light of a private
individual, and expressing his warmest
thanks for the kind feeling which prompt
ed the official. The Emperor chatted
pleasantly with those on board, and seem
ed to create the most favorable impression
by his apparent gentleness and unostenta
tious manner. He inquired particularly
about the poet Longfellow, and spoke in
affectionate terms of the memory of Pro
fessor Agassiz, with whom he was person
ally acquainted and who had formerly vis
ited him in Brazil. Shortly before three
o'clock the Hevelius steamed slowly up to
the city, and, after rounding the battery,
proceeded to her wharf in Brooklyn,
The imperial party was driven from the
landing to their lodgings at the Fifth Ave.
nue hotel very quietly, much to the disap
pointment of the crowds of people who
were not prepared for so little display. At
night the Emperor and Empress attended
Booth's theatre, and were very heartily
received by the audience much to their
apparent gratification. After seeing the
play out (Henry V.) the Emperor paid a
visit to the New York Herald office to see
how a great daily newspaper is prepared
for its readers. He was delighted with
the wonderful facility with which the work
was despatched, examining every depart
ment with the utmost curiosity.
The city authorities in New York have
tendered the hospitalities of the city to the
imperial party.

A letter appended to Mr Smwart's will,

wife, contains the following in regard to
his intended public charities:
"It has been and is my intention to
wake provisions for various public chari
ties, but as any scheme of the kind I pro

Xantippc.
It seems that the memory of this woman,
like that of her renowned husband, is likely
to be kept alive to the end of time. She is
said to have possessed a very irritabletetnper,
and her name has become a synonym of "vix
en," or "scold." It is more than possible,
however, that the judgment passed upon her
by mankind has been too severe. A more
charitable disposition would have undoubtedly
have discovered in her, many good qualities,
and have attributed her failings more tophys
ical infirmities than to moral obliquity. The
party most intimately acquainted with her,
and therefore best able to form a correct
opinion, gives her credit for many domestic
virtues. It is now well known that many of
the diseases to which women are subject,have
a direct tendency to render them irritable,
peevish, cross, morose, unreasonable, so that
they chafe and fret over all those little ills
and annoyances that a person in health would
bear with composure. It is fair to infer that
most of the tantrums of Xantippe were due to
these causes alone : and could Socrates, as he
returned from the Senate, the Gymnasium, or
the Atheneum, have stopped at Pestle & Mor
tar's Drug Store and carried home a bottle of
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, now and
then, no doubt he might have evaded many a
"curtain lecture," allayed many a "domestic
broil," made it much pleasanter for the chil
dren, and more enjoyable for himself, and
rescued his wife's name from the unenviable,
world•wide, and e‘.ernal notoriety it has at
taMed. Thousands of women bless the day
which Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription was
first made known to them. A angle bottle
often gives delicate and suffering women more
relief than months of treatment from their
family physician. • In all those derangements
causing backache, dragging-down sensations,
nervous and general debility, it is a sovereign
remedy. Its soothing and healing properties
render it of the utmost value to ladies suffer
ing from internal fever, congestion, inflamma
tion, or ulceration, and its strengthening ef
fects tend to correct displacements of internal
parts, the result of weakness of natural sup
ports. It is sold by all druggists.

and it has been noted that in delicate and critical
cases when used, that there war an entire absence
of the nervous prostration and reaction which so
often follow the use of other stimulants. The
Almost universal testimony of those who have
