Brazil's Ministers Convinced.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 18.-There were no
news at the Brazilian ministry to-day con-
corning the recent revolution in Brazil. It
is apparent, however. that Braziliau off.
cials here have become finally convinced
that the emperor has been overthrown.
In conversation to-day q prominent
citizen OF Brazil said he was convinced
that the men who had lead the revolution
could not retain their leadership. They
are unknown to fame, and are without
followers in their own country.
There were two sources open
to the rsvolutionists. They might
perceive their own weakness and
call q convention, which would bring
together the really representative men oi
the country, and this convention would
naturally consider the problem OF provid-
ing satisfactory form OF government and
settle the question as to whether Brazil is
yet ready Tor republic or whether the i'm.
perial family had better be recalled. If the
present leaders refused to adopt this
course, then they would be Obliged to as
sumo more and more arbitrary direction
of the affairs, and the result would be a
dict atorship.

The Old Lexington Mill.

R. B. Wallace has taken lease and bond
on some property in Park canyon, and will
in few days commence hauling ore from
it to the old Lexington mill, situated ON
East Broadway, for the purpose OF rsduc-
ing it. Mr.. Wallace has leased the mill.
and will not only work the ore from Park
canyCn, but will do custom work az well.
Yesterday workmen were busily engaged
repairing the mill, and fire will be started
under the boiler and the machinery tested
to-day. The mill has in the past crushed
many tons of rock, and will in
future pulverize many more, although
many persons had given it up for gone.
Frank Bateman was the last person who
operat, d the mill, and he did not coma out
poorer than when he went in.

The Obligations to Be Paid.

LONDON, Nov.i 1S.-lispatches received
here this aftsra Don from Rio Janeiro re-
iterate the statement that the proclama.
tion OF the republic has met with no oppo.
sition. The latest int lligence received at
Rio Saneiro indicated that Bahia and
Pernambuco were in state OF tranquility.
The people everywhere are so much

British mail st-amer Atrate from Monte
Vedeo for southampton islius at Rio to:
morrow and some believe the imperial
party will take passage upon that steamer
for Europe. Commercial dispatches are
forwarded from Brazi to foreign countries
without scrutiny or delay. All dispatches,
however, relating to the political situation
or giving any information regarding the
new government have to be submitted to O
iensor. The result is that only the intelli-
gence about the revolution which has
reached the outside world, except the
very meagre facts that have got
through in commsrcisl telegram in
cipher, is that which has met the approval
of the government censorship. A dispatch
has been received at the Brazilian legion
here in London from DR.. Barbosa, the
minister OF finance OF the new government,
directing the Brazilian minister to notify
the London stock exchange that all f1nan.
cial engagements entered into by the impe.
rial government will be faithfully observed
by the republic.

which he commands had, at that time

any steamer ever went before and will, dur
ing the winter, travel through unexploreu
land. McGrath speaks OF the misera bic

game and fish are very abundant. It is
difficult he says, to believe that one il in

luxuriant forests, and the warmth OF the
days; but dig down ten inches anywhere
and the ground will be found frog hard.
At Mulato they have dug as feet to get

The miners are niserably poor, and ths

comes into his store without dollars, gets
as good treatment as the man who has

money II the miners can make it, and il
