Arrival of ROYALTY,

New York, April 15.-The steam
ship Hevelins, bearing the Emperor
and Empress of Brazil, entered the
lower bay about noon. The batteries
flied salute of one hundred guns in
honor of the royal party, and the Bra
lillian corvette honOred the Emperor
by royal salute, rs did the United
States frigate Minnesota. Secretaries
Fish, Robson and Taft, Vice Admit
raj Rowan, Gen. Sherman, the Bra
lillian Minister. with the Brazilian
Centennial Commissioners, aud large
party, met the Emperor's steamer in
the steamer Alert. The custom house
and city officials went down the Bay

cred the tender of Inequalities of the
city made through Mayor Wiclam.-
The Marine Band on the Alert greeted
the Emperor with the Brazilian ma
tional hymn, and Secretary Fish made
brief address of welcome. The
Alert was gayly decked with flags,
and the Brazilian imperial ensign was
run to the maintop. Flags on all pub
lie buildings and hotels are flying in
honor of the Emperor's arrival.
The Emperor and Empress landed
at the East river pier, and were drawn
to the hotel, thus avoiding the crowd
awaiting their arrival at Twenty
fourth street landing, North river,
where the members of the Cabinet
and other officers left the steamer.

The Presidential Outlook.

NEW York. April 29.-Tilden's
prospect for the Democratic Presi-
Dental nomination is considerably
improved by the action of the New
York State Convention. The ripple
OF factious opposition amounts to
nothing as affecting the decision at
s.. Louis. Tilden is clearly the
choice of his party here, and if nomi-
mated at the National Convention
will get the entire party vote OF the
State. In this respect his case is the
reverse of Conkling, whose nomina-
ton would divide aud not unite Re
publicans. Bayard says he cannot
expect much support from New York
when il has Tilden 10 offer, whom he
regards rs man of unquestioned
ability. and believes he is so regard
ell by the country. Various journals
in the South heretofore hostile now
admit that though Tildon is not
their FIRST choice. he may be the most
available candidate. The ringing
declarations of the Utica platform
ard the equally terse Syracuse plat
forms Of 1875 6 are said 10 be the

Chinese Atmosphere.

There is city ordinance III San
Francisco which provides that per
sons shall not sleep In apartments
which do not contain at least five
hundred cubic feet OF air space.
This is equal to designating the
room as not less than between seven
and eight feet square. watch Is
surely about rs small a space rs
any white person should want 10
sleep in. But the Chinese seem. by
a peculiarly tough constitution, to
be able to breathe almost any sort
of vitiated air, and crowd them
selves into houses until they be-
come about as thick as the untor-
tuuate Britishers were in the his
torical Black Hole of Calcutta. 1t
was to reach them in these unwho.e
some practices that the city law re-
ferred 10 was passed. Yet ltamounts
to about the same as nothing, be-
cause 1T can never be anything like
rigidly enforced. 1t would require
squad of policemen specially de
tailed for the purpose at every
block to bring the slippery offend
ers into obedience. They would
have to watch them every night
when they turn in, and then stand
guard at the portals to see that no
others above the lawful number
should surrepti,iously steal in at an
unreasonable time. The law has
been entirely futile so far. and We
do not hesitate 10 predict that it
always will be 90. for the reasons
just given. The authorities of the
city might better turn their efforts
toward cleansing the whole Chinese
quarter of its peculiar and obnoxi-
GUS Tartar aroma and leave the in
dividuals to sleep as they choose
For, as stated above, the China
man is wonderfully tenacious of
health under circumstances that
would slay his white-skinned breth-
rem by the thousand. Physicians
in California are aware of this, and
are unable 10 account for it. One
Of them told thewri;er recently that
he believed they could breathe an
atmosphere composed of one-half
carbonic acid and still thrive and
grow fat. II is certain fact that
none OF the contagious that usually
proceed from vile atmosphere
have ever attacked Chinamsa more
than any other class in San Fran
cisco. Let them continue to breathe
the effete exhalation from their own
lungs until the time shall come for
them todepart from the land, which
! we hope may come speedily.

Two Parallels.

An Eastern paper says: we re-
call vaguely a custom said to pre-
vail among a tribe OF negroes in the
interior OF Africa. When the king
dies the heir apparent is first seized
10y the people and clothed in the
most wretched garments, Thea he
is seated upon the ground ana the
people address him in the vilest Ian
ruage and treat him to a perfect
shower of the most abusive terms.
After this they attack him and drive
him through the streets, peiting him
with mud the saile and lashing him
vigorously with switches. AT the
close Of this interesting performance
he is washed, arrayed in the most
gorgeous apparel, treated with the
most lavish courtesy and respect,
crowned with infinite ceremony, and
forever after implicitly obcyed. This
tribe is so remote from civilization
that only few hardy explorers have
penetrated its territory, Hence these
negroes must be acquitted of having
deliberately organized a burlesque
upon the American system Of choos-
ing a ruler; otherwise il would be
difficult TO resist the conviction that
the practice had some such sinister
purpose"
This brings to mind certain pages
in "Prescot,'s Conquest Of Mexico, "
whereon is recorded clstom

cient .Aztecs, They reversed the or

oonely-appcaring young man from

own ,lumber when no eapsivcs were
at hand, fea him sumptuously and
provided him with all the comforts
their civilization afforded until he
was thoroughly E4Iened. Music, a
gl:t;ering abode, and beautiful maid
ems for companions were accorded
him. The common people paid him
tho most solemn Difference and re-
garded him in every way as their in
finite superior up to the hour fixed

4 Wonderful Contemporary.

freighted with an extraordinary doc
trine. Not that the scntiments are IN
themselves new or original, or In any
wise calculated to endanger public
safety, but that it is an experience
outof the usual order to find the like
set forth publicly outside of The
woodhull-Clafiin Weekly. or pamph-
let opinions by that wonderfully virile
old gentleman, DR.. Noyes, of the
Oneida Community of Free Lovers.
Recently . dispatch was sent over
the wires fsom Cincinnati recounting
the old story of how a friendless girl
gave birth to an illcgitimate child,
committed infan,icide and then killed
herself. with all the nasty details.
Our exchange takes hold Of the sub
iect with a familiarity that betokens
some experience in the travails OF
parturilion or knowledge OF mid
wiiery scarcely to be expected from
any other than medical publication,
1, closes the wonderful article with
this startling proposition:
What, we would ask, is the sin oil
giving birth to a child out of wedlock
that ,be seIf-constituted judges OF
morality should visit such crushing
penalty on the head of one party u
its comaass;onl Does not all ami
mate creation testify that to repro
auce its Kind is one of natures
stronges. laws. and, being 50, what
right has man to ostracise al those
who, in obeying its mandates, violate
one of his arbitrary and unjust rul-
iggsl Out upon those who cry foul,

Of natures higher laws, and twice
oft upon a state of society which
hounds ~ death her who is guilty ~
submission to its demands.
In certain conditions of society,
where the moral balance-wheel of
women and families is wanting, the
baser instincts Of man are likely to
predominant, and he is apt to oscil-
late for while between the good
and the bad, and finally gravitate to
ward the latter. This is especially
50 with single men. Under such cir
cum1ances to see printed for general
circulation such astounding princi-
pies as the foregoing would net
strike enc As at all unaccoun,ahle.
Blu. in community like this--a
home and family community-and
where the moral innovstor is himself
recen,ly-made benedict, TO account
for the appearance of a doctrine 50
startling and revolutionary in pab-
legation claiming to be respectable is
quite beyond the powers of an or
binary mind, This same befogged
intellect mas in bis next issue formu-
late recipe for the prevention OF
procreation. That comes logically
in order after the foregoing. Or maybe
he will dissertate learnedly from the
standpoint of experience upon the
mysteries of Obstetrics. We shall
watch the paper closely for this. II
fact this little PAPER Of wonderful
opinions has more interest for us now
than ever before. Having never en-
joyed the experience Of a benedict
life, we are ignorant of many things
tina. it seems capable Of enlightening
us upon. Let il proceed. We can
stand it, but we advise families to
look out.
