DOM rEDRo's rUrvRa.
LISBON, December MANY inquiries
have been made of Dom Pedro touching
his future and his attitude toward the
Government of Brazil. In answer to all
these he confines himself to the declara.
tion that if summoned to appear in Bra
zil he will go. He alludes to some of the
prime movers in the revolution with re-.
spect, to others with disdain. Some oi
these men we're in direct communication
with him, but all that passed between
them were through intermediates. The
conspiracy was q complete surprise to
every one.
1t was after embarking that the EN-
peror heard of the decree continuing his
civil list. He declared that he will not
accept either the list or the donation oi
money offered him by the provisional
government.

obliged him to quit the country, he
would be ready to serve it under any
form of government.
