Brazilian Politeness.

The Brazilians are vastly polite
it would appear to us excessively so.
They not only lift their hat to every
lady in the street and at the window,
but to every well.diessed man,
even though stranger. The most
distinguished gentleman in the city
frequently acknowledged my hum
BILE presence at a distance Of square
off. In making my visits among the
sick, it is customary to shake hands
with all the household, both on eter-
ing and departing from the house,
and, if it is sobrado, or two-story
mansion, where the family always
resides in the upper story, the lady
of the house or the daughter, always
stands at the head Of the stairs till l
descend, audit is the custom to once
more salute her, hat in hand.
The Brazilian seldom knocks at
the door as we do. They clap the
palms Of their hands together two or
three times, which answers the same
purpose. They never enter an open
room without giving notice or ask
ing leave-"come lisenzd" among
the most intimate friends. In the
street they never call after each 9th
er, but attract the attention Of the
person they wish to detain by a
"shu!" which may be heard some
distance. When lady stops you in
the street, which is unusual, it is GUS
tomary to stand with tho hat off till
she tells you to put it on. aOnce on
time" q loquacious sonora encoun-
tered, in the hot sun, on the street, q
gentleman of her intimate acquaint-
ance, named Coelho-kabbit land
detained him some time, hat in hand
without requesting him to put it on;
and, after asking particularly about
all the members Of the family, one
by one, added,
"You may be sure that / like all
the Rabbits"
The gentlemen, who was scarcely
able to support the MONDAY heat,
answered, demurely:
"Yes, my sonora, and see that you
like them best roasted"

SHALL WE HAVE TIP

Mr.. Tracy, the President of the
Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific
Railroad; also the owner of the Mus
catine and Washington Railroad and
one of the shrewdest and Wealthiest
Railroaders in the country, told Mr..
James Hawley, Jrs md this writer,
the other day in Chicago, that they
proposed to complete their WASH
|ington branch 10 this city, as soon as
we secured our connection with St.
Louis.
The great question no W before the
people of Ottumwa, and Wapello
county, is shall we secure the St. L.
& G. r. r. at once, thereby rendering
the completion Of the Washington
branch, and other kindred projects
inevitables
That man must be as blind as a
mole, that cannot see; plainly that
the completion Of the StL. C ORR
r. win put us::ou, Of the wilderness
on Railroad matters: will make our
city the best Railroad centre III the
State, and give most wonderful i'm
potus to our growth, business and
the value Of city property, and far.
ming lands all over the county.
This proposition being inccntro.
vertible, and selfevldent, is it NOT
most passing strange that all proper.
ty OWNERS in town and county can
not be induced to contribute to this
lgreat project, in proportion to the
benefits they have already, and are
sure to derive?
We question If Any town in the
West ever held such big cards, and
had so many people who were eithe,
without the will, OF ability, or were
too innately cussed to play them.
| Meantime, thanks to the indom
liable spirit Of many Of our leading
citesens who have no such word o.
fail in their vocabularies, the great
| work is going on, and ,oiU succeed, il
spite Of the croakers, GROWERS. and
those who stubbornly refuse to Dc
their share. f g55

Horse is welcomed to the city Of OF

Des Monies Valley, with 20, 80, .,
even $4,000 people an accomplished
fact, it will be the boast Of these men
who stood by this project through

In his Charleston speech at Char
lesion, after returning from the New
York Convention, Wade Hampton
said it was at his instance that the
passage in one Of the acts of recon-
struction as revolutionary. uncon-
stitutional and void" was inserted.
He tells us that the Northern De-
mocracy were only restrained from
putting into the platform whatever
the Southern delegates wanted from
an apprehension that they might
overload it to the prejudice of their
interest at the North.
