WILD HUMORS OCCASION ALARM BT CABLE TO TUB DISFATCII.1 Paris, March 22. A gentleman holding & governmental position in Brazil, and a close friend of General da Fonseca, whose name I am not authorized to mention, has just arrived here from Brazil, bringing with him some interesting news. He was met by The Dispatch correspondent at the Bra zilian embassy and engaged in conversation n the affairs of Brazil. He said a letter, undoubtedly inspired by Dom Pedro, but signed by the Duke of Eaxe-Coburg-Gotba, has been received by General da Fonseca, thankine him for the consideration he had shown the Emperor during the period of the revolution, which, the writer states, was the most trying in the life of the aged monarch. The writer goes on to state that Dom Pedro fully appreci ates the kindness and generosity of General da Fonseca, and regretted that circum stances under whicb he had no control com pelled him to decline the offer of the 5,000 cantos the new Government, through its chief, made as a condition of his banish ment. A QUESTION OF DIGNITY. Further explaining the ex-Emperor's declination, the writer states that although exiled, Dom Pedro could only, with dignity, accept the annuity the constitution granted him; that to hare accepted the 5,000 cantos under the circumstances under which it was tendered, would have compromised his dig nity and cost him the esteem of his friends abroad. "Dom Pedro," the letter continues, "is by no means a bankrupt, in spite of the severe losses he has sustained by the change in Brazil. He has a large income from exten sive investments abroad, of long standing, whicb is more than sufficient to supply his present wants. Consequently, when it is stated that it is the desire of the Emperor to return to Brazil not as the claimant, but as a private citizen, where he could, with con tentment, pass the remainder of his days among the people he so much loves, and to whose government he has sacrificed nearly a half century of his life, it is not because he needs anything ol them other than a con tinuation of that esteem he has always en joyed and sympathy in his declining yeirs. AN ANXIOUS BEQUEST. "He, therefore, hopes that the honored chief of the new Government will respect the desire of the ex-Emperor and use his in fluence to have an exception in the decree of banishment recently promulgated made in his favor that he may be free to return whenever he desires. In return for this kindness Dom Pedro would present all of his real property, except his home at Petropolis, to the State, and if the Brazilian people insist by actual demonstration he would renounce all claims to the throne of Brazil and annul all hereditary claims thereafter. This is sufficient proof tbat the only wish the ex-Emperor has is to die in the land of bis birth in the midst of his countrymen." "While General da Eanseca," says my informant, "is disposed to treat the ex-Emperor with the greatest consideration and entertains a profonnd respect lor his wishes, he is inclined to regard the letter as a device of his heirs, who deem it advisable to stoop to conquer. He will pay no attention to the appeal unless Dom Pedro makes his de Eire known over his own signature." THE NEW CONSTITUTION. In further conversation the gentleman caid the new Constitution which is to be EUbmitted to the people has already been drawn up according to Republican ideas, and is largely modeled after that of the "United States of North America. The fol lowing are three of the clauses relating to the formation 6i the States: First The provinces which existed under the empire are classed as Federal States. becond Two or more provinces may unite and become a single State with the consent of the Federal Congress. Thiid A province which docs not possess sufficient revenue and population to justify its becoming a Bute, or which does not wis'h to unite with ocbers to form a State, shall be con sidered as a Territory, subject to the jurisdic tion of the Federal Government, and its Gov ernor shall be named by the President of the union. A. cablegram from Bio Janeiro says: The air here is alive with rumors. People are saying now that it is the intention of the Provisional Government to annul the decree convoking the Constituent Assembly, and to prolong the distatorship for five years. AN UNRELIABLE BU1IOE. At a dinner given some davs aco to the ex-Ministerof Agriculture, the Minister ol "War took occasion to allude to this report. The people ol Brazil, he said, should be more graterul and not insult the Govern ment and the army by circulating such ru mors. Neither in the Government nor in the army was there any one who desired the banelulsupremacv of "the sword. What the Government most earnestly desired was to return as soon as possible to private life. Office has no charms for them, and as for himself there was & inducement sufficient to reconcile him to remaining permanently in the place he occupied. The Minister of War has since published a card stating that his speech was not correctly reported. The many reports in circulation in regard to the boundary treatv with the Argentine Eepublic have caused the Government to publish an article on the subject in the official paper. This article denrecates dis cussion of the question at present as prema ture, since the terms of the treaty have not yet been made known, and states that all apprehensions in regard to those terms are groundless, since the Government has a full sense ot its responsibility in so important a question. Besides, the treaty, before be coming operative, has to be ratified by the legislative assemblies of the two countries. It it is not ratified, the boundary question will be settled by arbitration, the President of the United States being requested to act as arbitrator. THE GLOOMY TORIES. They Are Almost Certain to Lose Dloro Scnts at the Next Bye Election! No Dancer of nn Ap peal to the People. ISrZCIAI. TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCB.1 London, March 22. The Tory confer ence this week was a dull, spiritless affair. Lord Randolph Churchill was absent, and many other Conservatives kept away. Lord Salisbury denounced those who "had not given the Government a blind support this session, and said there was no intention of appealing to the country, which is quite probable, considering the way the electors have been speaking lately. A few ques tions were asked His Lordship, one by Mr. Stavely 11(11, who spoke of the great im portance of a speedy settlement of the Beh ring Straits difficulty, in reply to which Lord Salisbury said that negotiations were going on, and be hoped the matter would soon be settled, but with such a susceptible nation as America he could not negotiate at the top of his voice, a sentiment which seemed to tickle the Tories, for they laughed immoderately. It is significant that His Lordship's little pleasantry does not appear in the official report which was subsequently supplied to the press. In the matter of weieht Lord Salisbury undoubtedly has it. He stood on a machine this week while the Prince of Wales looked on, and the record gave 230 pounds. Mr. Gladstone is only a little more than 160 pounds. Lord Salisbury, despite bis bulk, is feeling the strain of bis two Government posts keenlv, and next week he goes to the South of France for a month's rest, a step which is almost unpre cedented on the part of the Prime Minister in the height of the political season. The result of the Avr election will be made known next Wednesday, and of East down on the Wednesday following. Other elections are pending at Carnarvon, where Swetenham, the Tory member, died this week, and also at Windsor, where the sit ting member has resigned. At Ayr and Carnarvon the Gladstonians are confident of winning. IK its first stages, can be successfully checked by the prompt use of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. Even in the later periods of that disease, the cough is wonderfully relieved by this medicine. "I have used Ayer'a Cherry Pectoral with the best effect in my practice. Tins wonderful preparation once saved my life. I had a constant cough, night sweats, was greatly reduced in flesh, and given up by my physician. One bottle and a lialf of the Pectoral cured me." A. J. Eidson, M. D., Middleton, Tennessee. " Several years ago I was severely ill. The doctors said I was in consumption, and that they could do nothing for me, but advised me, as a last resort, to try Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. After taking this medicine two or three months I was cured, and my health remains good to the present day." James Birchard, Darien, Conn. " Several years ago, on a passage home from California, by water, I contracted so severe a cold that for some days I was confined to my state-room, and a physician on board considered my lifo in danger. Happening to have a bottle of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, I used it freely, and my lungs were soon restored to a healthy condition. Since then I have invariably recommended this prep aration." J. B.

Your Paris corre spondent telegraphs that the sensation caused by the publication of the Lenten pastoral instructions by the Cardinal-Archbishop of Bheims has not vet abated. The pastoral is considered by Catholics, at any rate, to be a scathing exposure of the social effect of the official atheism which prevails in France, and certainly the figures culled from the official documents and cited by His Emi nence afford food for thought. It seems that the annual average of criminality has in creased threefold since 1870, and of juvenile criminality fourfold. In 1886, of 187,720 accused brought before the police tribunals 23,000 were minors. In 1887 there were 191.108 accused, of whom nearly 30,000 were minors. In 188G, the Criminal Courts convicted 580 persons below 21 vears of age, and 17 below 16 years; in 1887, 649 below 21, and 42 below 16. This year already three murderers, all minors, nave been executed in Paris, of whom the youncest was 16 years old. The number of suicides has risen from 4,990 in 1870, to 8,202 in 1887. During 1887, 225 minors between 16 and 21 years, and 48 children below 16, committed suicide. 1819 ESTABLISHED 1819 THE OLD STATEN ISLAND DYEING ESTABLISHMENT, 610 PENN AVENUE.
