A HERALD special letter from Rio Janeirt,
under date of July 25, which appears in our
columns to-day, supplies further details con-
corning the condition Of the governmental
relations which exist between the Empire of
Brazil, the Argentine Confederation, and Uru-
quay towards the government of Paraguay,
and also of the causes which have been lately
exciting to disruption Of the treaty arrange
ments between the three Powers first named
The war cloud was breaking away, but it is
quite apparent that the condition of public
affairs in the great South American territory
remains exceedingly delicate apd still re-
quires very careful treatment at the hands
of the peace party. A band of engineers,
splendidly equipped, had left Rio for the
Parana River. They will halt at Paranagua
Bay, and, from that point, commence to
survey across the southern section of Brazil,
up the northern line to Paraguay on the Bo-
ivian frontier, and perhaps on to the Pacific.
1t is intended to mark out the course of
Brazilian railroad to the Pacifc-a mighty
work, but much needed. The latest move.

vote, and its effect has been shown in the
check received by the administration in North
Carolina. Had the republicans adhered
to President Grants generous treatment Of
the Southern whites and pursued the policy
of peace and reconciliation advocated by the
Union General from the moment of the cessa-
tion of the rebellion, they would have secured
for their candidate o liberal support among
the white citizens of the Southern States, and
personal and malignant abuse that has been
showered upon the liberal nominees and all
who support them was conceived in narrow
minded policy, and throwing away seventy
five thousand dollars of the public mo-
ney upon o trunk full of musty, stupid
electioneering documents, in the hope Of
damaging Greeley, was the work of ward
politicians. The republicans chances would
have been better to-day had they saved
their investment, treated their opponents with
the respect due to genius and personal integ
rity, and trusted for their own success to the
sound Judgment and conservative character of
the business men of the country, who might
have been contented to stand by an admins
tration that had given them four years of peace
and prosperity The efforts in this city to make
bargains with the old Tammany leaders, and
TO trade and dicker with this politician and
that organization will probably prove less
profitable in the end than straightforward
policy and the nomination of candidates whose
names would command public confidence
This Bourbon diversion is Of similar charac-
ter. Unaided by the republicans the move
ment would have died out and made no sign.
Built up by them to be q plague to the liberal
candidates. it is very likely to recoil upon their
own nominees. Better that the democrats
should have been left to take position between
the two live candidates, in accordance
with their convictions and inclinations. In
that event, President Grant would no doubt
have received good share of democratic
votes from those thinking men of the party
who would be likely to hesitate before
making radical change in the policy Of the
government while the nation is prosperous
and at peace. Besides, the people are weary
of these constant tricks, tradings and bargains
between political leaders in which the honest
voters of the country are treated as so many
goods and chattels to be handed over to this
or that side as the political huxters may deter
mine. Honest dealing and open policy on the
part of those who undertake to lay down plat
forms and nominate candidates must be here
after the price of popular support, and when
the people are once satisfied that q political
,,arty 90 rc,,;r q for,,o,,o couroo nd ,,,ol;,r,
unclean bargains they will rise in their might,
as they did last November, and sweep it out of
existence

REVOLUTIONARY OUTCRoPpINGs IN PonTr-
GAL. The capital Of the Portuguese nation re-
Gently was near being subjected to political
convulsion. Rumors of revolution, according to
our mail advices were afoat, and the govern
ment was aware of their existence. The con-
spirators, it seems, were officers of the lowest
grades of the Portuguese army. No mention
is made of any prominent officer or conspicu-
Gus person in the capital being implicated in
the matter. Notwithstanding, officers Of the
class engaged in the rebellious scheme are
very dangerous instruments because of their
acquaintance and constant intercourse with
the men. The idea these fellows had in view
was to attack the arsenals and, with the soldiers
and the reckless spirits among the populace
won over to their cause; to seize the arms and
Sproclaim provisional government and con-
woke constituent Cortes." The whole under
taking ended in fzzle" and the ambitious
little officers who contemplated running the
government to suit themselves will pay dearly
for their presumption. Possibly the victims
may have only been the tools of more design
ing and more exalted conspirators in a neigh
boring country.

No new arrivals of infected vessels have
occurred since Saturday, no new cases ore
reported and several convalescents on the
Numancia have recovered This will be well
come news to our citizens. Were the case
different, were there accessions to the fever
feet anchored in the outer harbor, there would
be no occasion for anxiety The merchant
ships which bear the infection lie seventeen
miles distant from the nearest portion of our
city, and the Spanish steamer is not within
twenty miles. Philadelphia papers kindly say
that four vessels with yellow fever have lately
entered our bay. This is manifestly pub
lished to scare business men from visiting the
metropolis. Intelligent people should know
that SO far as there is danger of contagion
from these ships it threatens the Quaker City
about as much as New York. Our bay is
wider than the Delaware River, and, though
there are fever ships within its humane
shelter, they are far enough away and securely
enough guarded to fully protect the health of
our city. It is true that an over prudent pilot
brought the Spanish war steamer through the
Narrows, but she wns ever wide stretch away
from either shore and her sanitary precautions
were most efficient. Still, ''to make assurance
!doubly sure" she was remanded to the Lower
Bay, most properly, and now it is the most
unlikely thing in the world that our city should
be subjected to the fever scourge.
Hrs IMPERIAL HOLINESS THE DUKE OF SAKE
IN NEW YoRK-His Highness the Duke of
SAKE arrived at this port in the steam
ship North American, from st. Thomas,
yesterday. His visit will be an agreeable
one, made pleasant to him by the greet
ings of friendly people, who estimate the
excellence of his personal character and fine
social qualities while they respect his elevated
rank and noble lineage. The Prince is allied
by blood to many royal houses, but this does
not serve to bar his anxiety to learn good

progress towards the triumph of the democra-

GYMNAsTIc GEnMANs.-The annual display
of the New York Turner organizations, which
was inaugurated on Sunday, was brought to a
successful close last evening in Jones Wood.
For weeks the Turner's have been preparing for
this annual event in their different gymnasiums,
md the success attending this years festival is
attributable to the increasing interest in tho
manly and healthful exercise which the gym
nasium develops. In Germany also this month
there has been grand gathering of amateur
gymnasts in Bonn from most of the prominent
German towns. German Austria, ST. Peters
burg, London and New York were represented
ut the Jfetes Even Metz and Strasbourg aspi-
rants put in an appearance among the athletes.
These exhibitions are worthy Of encourage
ment for the health they promote and the
activity they encourage, and if many of our
young men who lounge about our favorite
promenades and public resorA devoted more
time to healthful outdoor exercises they would
experience mentally as well as physically ad-
vantages they cannot now appreciate.
