ever, private associations We're formed at
Rio de Janeiro for the purpose Of redressing
the immigrants wrongs and giving them in
formation upon arrival, as is done under sim
liar circumstances at Castle Garden New
York, and immigration, principally from
Germany and Switzerland, is now taking
place aided by the Brazilian government,
which pays part of each immigrants pas
sac money.
Dom Pedro has been abroad great deal
since ISL At that time he left his empire
under the regency OF his eldest daughter,
Isabella and made an extended tour through
the United States, the continent Of Europe
and England. He is related to nearly every
reigning family in Europe, but is extremely
republican IN his habits. Instead of crossing
the water in al imperial steamer, he has been
accustomed to use the same conveyance as
ordinary mortals
Four children Of Dom Pedro are alive, the
eldest being Donna Isabelle, at the present
time the princess regent in Brazil She was
born Jaly %, 1916, and was married Oct. ID,
1864, to the Comte dEu, by whom she has
three children, the Oldest being Prince Pedro,
born at Rio de Janeiro, Oct ID, 1919 In
case Of Dom Pedro's death Princess Isabelle
will be empress, since, according to the Bra
lillian constitution, the heir to the throne Is
the oldest child without distinction of sex
King Louis /, Of Portugal, was born Oct.
81, 1888, and is CONSEQUENTLY nearly 80 years
Of age. In 1861 ~ brother, Pedro V, king
of Portugal, upon the breaking out of yellow
fever in Portugal applied himself TO the as
sistance Of his stricken subjects, and died
from exposing himself to the disease. Pedro
had inaugurated wise policy for remedying
the unfortunate condition of the finances
consequent upon the wars through which
Portugal had passed during the earlier part
of the present century. Louis, after his ac-
cession to the throne continued to tighten
the public burdens and promote the arts Of
peace In 1865 he abolished slavery in the
Portuguese colonies. In 1866 and in 1872 he
instituted exhibitions in Oporto, and in 1878
succeeded in consolidating the floating debt
However, Portugal, at one time one Of the
two great rival nations Of the Spanish PENN
sula, like her neighbor Spain, has almost en-
tirely lost her position rs a power While
she has been retrograding, her former colony
Brazil has been gaining. While Louis has
had worn old narrow strip of land to work
upon, Dom Pedro has had rich and fertile
territory, productive of coffee, sugar, india
rubber, dye woods, wool and other articles
which are staple, and with proper cultiva-
ton are extremely profitable. With immi-
grafton, peace and agriculture, there is no
reason why Brazil should not continue in her
prosperity. Perhaps some day she may take
her old mother Portugal under her protec-
ton and provide for the little old lady In
true fllial style.
King Louis will be succeeded by Prince
Charles Of Braganza, whose wife is the Prin-
cess Amclie Of Orleans.
