CORRECT CONDUCT.

THERE is no greater compliment than
a perfect punctuality. 1t is the ''cour-
tesy of kings" Queen Victoria, the
Prince of Wales, the King and Queen Of
Italy never keep any one waiting.
A LADY should be very particular to
specify whom she wishes to see, and no
lady should go to a strange house unin-
vited, on the spoken belief of some
other person that she will be welcome.
A YOUNG ge9tleman may be taken by
a married lady VINO is all powerful, to a
ball, as she is supposed to indorse his
responsibility, but it is always better
for him to leave his card, and for him to
receive an invitation.
If through any misapprehension per-
son gets into house unlimited, a hostess
should never show, by word or manner,
that she observes it. The very fact that
a person has crossed her threshold
gives, for the moment, that person a
claim on the politeness of hostess.
THERE is no such utter mistake as to
lose ones temper, ones nerve, ones
composure in company. Society may be
false condition of things, but, what
ever it's faults, it demands of a woman
the very high virtues of self-command,
gentleness and composure, politeness,
GOODNESS and serenity. Good manners
are said to be the shadows of virtues.
A HOSTESS should never reprove her
servants in the presence of her guests.
All that worries her must be carefully
concealed from them. 1t is her place to
oil the wheels Of the domestic ma
chinery so that nothing shall jar. 1t is
quite impossible in America that such a
set of trained servants could be obtained
who should make the domestic wheels
move without jarring. But the hostess
must not appear to notice 1t. If she is
disturbed, or fustered, or miserable,
who can enjoy any thing?

TIE UNITED STATES OF nRAzrL.


Rio DE JANEIRo, Nov. is. The United
States of Brazil, constituting federated
republic of the different provinces of the
empire over which Dom Pedro ruled so
long, is an established government.
The new republic is acknowledged by
every province except Bahia in
the north. Dom Pedro is on his
way to Portugal, having accepted the
situation with no attempt at forcible
resistance: the flag of the republic has
been adopted and Brazil is as peaceful
to-day as though no thought of revolu-
tion had ever aroused the feelings of the
people. The overthrow of the empire
has been accomplished without the loss
OF a single life, and the new provisional
Government is proceeding with its work
as methodically and peacefully as
though it had been in existence for
twenty years instead of hours.
Dom Pedro submitted to the terms inn
posed on him by the new Government,
and agreed to leave the country within
twenty-four hours after he received the
notice at his summer palace at Petropo-
lis. He was offered 81, 800, 000 in cash
and provision for the rest of his life ID
the form of an annual pension of $780,
900 which is to be provided for in the
civil list of the new republic. He
promptly accepted the offer and came to
Rio de Janeiro with his family Satur-
day night TO embark for List on.
The imperial family at 8 o'clock
Sunday morning boarded the Brazilian
gunboat Parnahyba, which was still fly
ing the imperial flag in the harbor. The
Parnahyba transferred the imperial par
ty to the Alleges, which steamed out OF
the harbor Sunday forenoon con-
veyed by the cruiser Riachuelo and
the gunboat Parnahyba bound for Lis
bon. Dom Pedro and his family go into
perpetual exile, their absence from the
country being regarded by the leaders
Of the republic as essential to the peace
and welfare of the new Government.
The new flag of the United States of
Brazil, which takes the place of the inn
perial emblem with its crown and coffee
leaf, is composed of green and gold
stripes with blue field. on which are
embazoned nineteen stars. To-day it

authorize civil officers to arrest DESERT
