THURSDAY HoRN1NG::::::::::MAR .. 1876.

PERSONS who last night enjoyed the
warmth and comforts of their homes should
not fail to read the report of the meeting of
the managers of the night lodging house in
another column. Think of those poor
friendless ones tramping through the streets
of city on such night without place to
lay their head, and then do not refuse a
small donation to aid them in this practical
way. Many have been in as good circum-
stances as many of you-but the suggestion
is too unpleasant. Give what you can, and
be sure it is money well expended.

Will the United States stand indiferently

lated, while struggling for the first principles
of freedom and the possession of inalienable
rights' This, of course, is question which
the future alone can answer. Yet 1t is one to
which the mass of the American people are
now ready to respond. Our people, always
filed with sympathy for the oppressed, are
with the patriots now; /; and when the time

Live A,Iigators for the Centennial.

A nice lot OF playthings, in the form Of
three hundred and fifty live alligators,
passed up the river yesterday, says the
Men phis Avalanche Of April 80, on their
way TO the national centennial at Phila-
delphia. The demonstrating reptiles en-
braeed ell sizes, from the little thing six
inches long, just out of it's shell, to one
thirteen and Onehalf feet in length, named
Billy" The latter, venerable rascal
with rather repulsive countenaDce, is
supposed to be nearly $50 years old, judg-
ing by marks he carries, as set forth by
Audubon and other naturalists. These
slligstOre were captured by Mr.. Thomas L.
Bond in the vicinity OF Pearl river, Louisi-
aua, near it's entrance into Lake POntchar-
train. In the collection is a small mean
looking cuss named "Ned," who has
learned to stand on his hind legs, dance
'juba" and play tricks. Ned is about three
years old, and if this precOciOus play thing
keeps on he will be likely to ride an act in
q circus before q great ehile. While the
steamer Robert Mitchell, on which thew
are, lay at the levee yesterday, large
number of curious people crowded around
the wooden tanks or boxes in which the
ailig atOrs epOrted. At one time Mr.. Bond
felt uneasy, and he called a cemrsde to
watch his pets to keep the people from car
rying off half dozen of them to eat. Mr..
Bood feeds the alligators on fish. At pres.
ent they are healthy, and some of the am
phibiOus end ferOclOus brutes look as if
they would eat hog in q minute, or =

Dom PedrO,s Family.

1t is nearly four centuries since Bra iii

pendent of Portugal, it has always been

of government.
Portugal temporized to no purpose with
Napoleon, having yielded to his pretensions
until warned of the fu,iliry of such meas

servility of Spain. Then the royal family
of Braganza took step which astonIshed
all Europe. 1t was regarded as cowardly,
but in their helpless c, ndition it Was GER
