go quietly in our own conveyance. !"
And the Hclvetius steamed away up
river and landed thei imperial party
on the Brooklyn side, where less
than a dozen awaited their arrival.
We look upon this conduct of
Dom Pedro as an insult to the entire
country. Had he given this Gov
crnment official notice that he would
like, in his case, the customary civil
tiles Of reception dispensed with, the
affair would have presented differ
ent aspect. As it Was, our royal
guest donned the dress and address
of boor. Dom Pedro is large
man--over six feet in hight, and with
a corresponding breadth of beam
has also had an exceptionally pros
perons reign for king, covering a
period Of some thirty-five years, but
he has studied the character and
spirit Of our people to little effect, il
he imagines we shall reciprocate the
insolent aud overbearing address of
foreigner with the abiect bearing Of
serfs. We have, it is true, quite an
extensive job of house-clcaning on
hand, and he may find many of US
in dust and overalls, but he
viii also find dignity enough
in this country 10 make just
demand upon all the respectful
consideration several empires like
Brazil can furnish at their best.
Dom Pedro is coming this way, and
we hope he will be met and escorted
about by men who understand their
Businessmen who can weigh men
and emperors as accurately as trade
dollars, and who will give the en-
peror measure for measure.-[S San

To Mining and Mill Superinten-
dents:

The great and unparalleled success that has
been achieved by our Asbestos Non-Conduc-
Tor for covering Steam Boilers and Pipes war
rant us in offering it to you as the BEST AND
MOST DURABLE FELTING now existing
This Company is the oldest and most exten-
siye in the United States, and by actual test
the Asbestos Felting has proved to be more
durable tasn any other covering extant. 1t is
strongly patented and any use of the word
Asbestos" in connection with any other felt
ing is an infringement. Itcontains the best non
conducting. and fire-proof ingredients known
TO science. Asbestos is 3 mineral long known
80 chemistry as non infsInable and the most
positive retainer of heat in nature. Our pro-
cess consists in SO preparing Asbestos with
other fibrous and glutinous matter as to form
strong, elastic adhesive and indestructible
covering fer steam pipes and boilers, which
we have fully demonstrated is pre-eminently
superior to any other covering now in use. 1t
~ less expensive than Hair Felting and can
be applied at any time while the boilers are in
use. One covering VIII last in perfect order
as long as the boilers or pipes. By absolute
test
n is KNOWN TO SAVE IS TO 50 PER
CENT. IN FUEL.
1t is non-iniiamable. indestruetible and a
perfect non-conductor of heat and cold. Its
texibiiity causes it to contract and expand
sith the iron surface, thus preventing il
from cracking. As it sbsorbs no moisture
and excludes the atmosphere the surface of
boiler or pipe cannot corrode. 1t is applied
In plastic state upon a hot surface with
facility and in few hours becomes dry,
light, elastic and tenaeiously adhesive. 1t
contains no lime or other corroiing substance.
We challenge the world to produce covering
to compete with ours in durability and saving
Of fuel. We possess the sole knowledge and
proprietorship of this lsooess, and would
caution all parties against worthless limitations
our Asbestos Non -Condneso-, our unprece-
90 ed success having started several worth
less limitations Of it into existence processing
TO contain Asbestos, Saperintendents and
engineers are invited to examine the material
and work at the Savage Mining Company.

The White Mans Uniltness fol

The following extract is from Il

but a stupid reference to the lateG Gx-

government, which may be little
too severe, all things considered:
When Bennett said "the public is
n great ass" he knew whereof he
spoke. After the Ralston- Bank Bui-
letin-Call snasm of insanity, nothing
occurred for a lorg time te attract
the notice or excite the attention of
the .spurest and best" citizens of this
city, until it occurred to them one
day to make q raid simultaneously
on the Chinaman and the trade dol
lar. Well, the seuotions" of the
"purest and best had been so long
pent up that the indignation against
these two new dangers TO our liber
ties was something terrible. There
was u perfect outpouring of mass
meetings, oratory, resolutions and
whereases. and newspaper advice
aud gabbie withoat end. The sub
s,antial results are as follows:
fa) The trade dollar surrendered
at the first charge and dared not
show itself except with uncovered
head and placard strung around its
mock meekly announcing that 1t only
valued itself at ninety cents.
(bl John Chinsman quietly with
drew himself from public gaze for
the space of one whole afternoon
and evening, while the sspurest and
best" were passing their resolutions
and whereases.
(c) John Chinaman next day
crawls out OF Sacramento street and
buys up all the trade dollars which
the aforesaid "purest and best" have
to spare at ninety cents, and ships
them off 10 China at a clear profit
to himself of sixteen cents on his
ninety cents outlay, less the freight
and insurance to Hong Kong.
tdl On last collection day, and
ever since, the said "purest and best"
had noi'enough small change to do
business with on California and
Front streets, including what trade
dollars they had left and their half
dollars too-all of which were eur.

independent, untrammeied press
daily assures these purest and
best" that they have accomplished
y wonderful thing, averted great
public danger, etc.

the operation, while the sass" de-
scribed by the autocra, OF The Her
