TIE FRIGHTFUL SUFFERING IN BRAZIL.
The New York Herald publishes q
lengthy letter from Brazil giving q
frightfnl picture of drought famine and
pestilence, raging in the northern por-
tion of that country for more than q
year past. 1t is said TO be the greatest
calamity in two hundred years. Half
a million people have been swept away
by starvation and disease. Smallpox
and black plague has carried of their
victims in appalling numbers, aud
thousands of bodies are rotteEing in
open trenches. At Lagoa Funda thous-
ands Of other corpses have been torn
and devoured by wild animals. The
starving peasants ate their own
offspring. In some places including the
city of Cerea, the country has been de-
populated. There have been terrible
struggles for life by children abandoned
and yeung souls sold for bread. Tbous-
snds of living skeletons were 20 be seen.

Social SENSATION IN HANOVER Pa
The borough Of Hanover was thrown
into fever heat of excitement on SAT.
urda, b. a bit Of social sensation, OF
which wel-known citizen by the name
of Henry Aizerodt is the cause. There
is a weird sort of romance in the name
of the individual, ipasmuch as he is q
brother of Atzerodt who was lung for
being implicated in the assassination OF
President Lincoln in the year 1865. On
Friday evening warrant was issued
for his arrest by q justice OF Hanover
for criminal relations with a young wo-
man who was "a servant girl in neigh
boring family. Upon being arrested
by the officer he asked permission to go
to his home and exchange clothing be-
fore going to the office of the justice,
and asked the officer TO accompany him.
Immediately after entering the house
he unexpectedly disappeared through
the rear of his residence and eraded be-
ing re- arrested. He is supposed to
have crossed the State line into Mary
land. Mr.. Atzerodt came TO Hanover
soon after the war from Maryland,
where he had been living for time un
der an assumed name, on account ol
the reproach cast upon his name by the
unfortunate relation of his brother in
the presidential tragedy. Upon arriv.
ing al Hanover he took bis right name
again, and engaged in the carriage man
ufacluriDg business as ernploye. He &C
cumula,ed considerable money, and not
until the past few days has his charac.
ter been called into question. He own
ed one of the finest residences in the
town. He was married some years
ago to a Miss Mcfarland. He bas
three children. His wife is reported tc bs
terribly depressed and suffering from
mental alteration. Some Of his credit.

Found in an Old Chest.

Charles Broom, a farmer OF Sullivan cOun-
ty, n. Y, while lately searching for an old
deed. concluded to examine the contents OF
chest which had been in his possession
untlisiurbed for fifty-two years. 1t contained
old papers, and in opening them he dis
covered package tied with tape. After
the tape was exposed to the air for two
hours it became as fine rs ashes. In the
package Mr. Broom found five letters of
great antiquity and of some public impor-
tance One of the letters was dated at York
town, Pa, October 9TH 1777, written by
John Hancock, then President of Congress
informing Governor Clinton of New York
that Congress had appropriated $500 for
the erection of a monument to the memory
of General Herkimer. This is the $500 Of
which Ex-Governor Seymour spoke in the
speech recently delivered by hm in Herki-
mer county ON the subject Of raising money
to erect a monument in honor of General
Herkime-. IL is said that the $500 have
never been paid, and on the strength of this
letter the people of lIerkimer will petition
Congress for its payment, with interest for
10l years, to he expended for the purpose
named Another Of the letters was dated
at Kingston, October 18th l777, signed by
Morris, informing Governor Clinton of the
retreat of General Burgoyne. The third
was dated October 10th l111, signed by
John Jay. toGovernor Clinton. The fourth
was dated August 18th 1777, signed by
Richard Morris, who administered the first
Presidential oath of office to General Wash
ingtOn in Wall street, New York. The
fifth letter was written by Peter B. Living
ston, August l777, to Governor Clinton, in
relation to the Medical Department of the
Continental army.

No Time for Sentiment.


A a furniture auction a widow seem-
ed to be quite anxious to possess herself
of secondhand stand, and the only
bidder in opposition was a long-Sodied
young .man, whose team and wagon
were hitched across the street. One of
the crowd slipped around to him and
said:
Il presume you have feelings for the
poor widow, who is trying to get along
and educate her children"
Yes was the reply.
"Well, then, don't bid against this
widow on that stand. | think she sus-
poets that there is secret drawer full
of greenbacks in it, and the money will
be a great help to her. Remember the
widow and the fatherless.'
''TwO dollars and a quarter!'' called
the long-bOdied young man to the auc-
tiOneer.
"What, Have you no sentiment,
exclaimed the citizen.
''Mister man, there's time for sem
timent, and time for buying stands, !"
replied the teamster. "This is no time
for sentiment-Ib bid twenty shillings ="
The widow went quarter better,
and the young man settled her by bid
ding three and half. The stand was
Knocked down TO him, and as he placed
it in the wagon he said to the citizen: {:

sir" answered the boy making sec
ond bow. "There's but one God, my
child" said the lady and the gig drove
on. How ignorant those poor Catho-
