Since our vast public domain available
for settlement has dwindled down to SO
limited an area, it Is encouraging to
know that there Is room enough in Bra
zil. That Empire contains an area of
.23ll,974 square mies-more than two
thirds as much as our entire republic,
Alaska excluded. Her population is but
n,7S0,000, of whom 1,400,000 are slaves,
and &c., 900 wandering aborigines. Sla-
very is being abolished by the law OF
1871, making every child thereafter born
Of slave parents free, and emancipating
all the slaves belonging TO the Empire or
In the service of the Imperial household.
An emancipation fund has also been pro-
vided for the ransom of slaves belonging
to private households.
The Government is not quite as pOpu-
lar as Americans would like; but after
awhile it might be made SO.
The constitution recognizes four de-
partments-executive, legislative, mod
Grating and judicial. The Emperor, who
is born to the throne, is the executive.
The legislative comprises Senate cho-
sen by the Emperor, and House Of Dep.
uties elected by the people. The moder-
ating department is united with the ex-
.ecutive, and consists In choosing the
Senators. yetoing acts OF the Legislature,
dissolving the chamber at pleasure, dis
missing minister's, suspending magis-
rates. granting pardons and so on. The
