The EX- Emperor Of Brazil Arrives
at Cape de Verde Islands.
LONDON. Nov. so. The Portuguese
steamer AlagoaS, with eX-Emperor Dom
Pedro and his party on board, arrived
at ST. Vincent, Cape de Verde islands,
today. All the members of the party
are well. Upon the arrival of the
AlagoaS. an attempt was made to inter
view Dom Pedro concerning the events
that had led TO his deposition and exile.
He declined, however, to enter into any
discussion relative 10 the reYOlu-
ton. but stated that he had been treated
with the utmost kindness through
out by the provisional government
The Alagoas will proceed for Lisbon to-
morrow. When the Steamerarrived a.
St. Vincent she was flying the. new flag

al government had given Instructions
that the Ola flag was to be hOiSted at st.
Vincent and Lisbon. The officers of
the steamer, not having direct orders
from Rio Janeiro. declined to make the
change. They, however. Immediately
sent cable dispatch to Rio Janeiro,
asking for orders relative to the
flag, pending the arrival of
which the AlagoaS flies no flag
at ali. The AlagOaS was conveyed four
ana half days from Rio Janeiro by a
Brazilian man-Of-war. The war ship
was much slower than the AlagOas, and
the latter'S passage was consequently
much longer than it would otherwise
have been. Fine weather was expert

restoration of the Orleans dynasty in
Brazil, and will advise Dom Pedro to

COURTESY TO A FORMER RULER.
LISBON. Nov. 30.-It is stated that the
English, German, Spanish and Russian
ministers to Portugal will greet Dom
Pedro on his arrival in the Alagoas.
This has no political significance, being
merely a matter of courtesy to former
ruler who enjoys the highest respect of
all countries, including his own.
Upon the arrival of Dom Pedro at ST.
Vincent he telegraphed to the king of
Portugal gratefully thanking the latter
for his kindness in setting apart the
NeeeSSidadeS palace for his use. bat de-
clining to avail himself of the offer. He
would go to his former quarters at the
Hotel BraZanZa, he said, and after
few days rest would go thence to Nice.
TORIES SHOW THEIR HANDS.
Salisbury's Programme For the
Next Session Of Parliament Out
lined.
LONDON, Nov. 30-The programme
of the next session of parliament was
practically settled in the cabinet coun-
Gil yesterday. Such arrangements are
always subject to eXigencieS arising
from movements in public opinion. But
as it stands, and with Lord Hartingtan's
complete ascent. there is to be no effect
i've dealing with Irish local government
and the land purchase bill will be no
very ambitious measure. The views of
Mr.. Smith, the Tory leader in the house,
and of Mr.. GOSchen, against cOmpulsiOn,
have been adopted by the cabinet,
and the plea that it is desirable

accepted as a bar to the high prices and
the enormous drafts on British credit
which compulsory sale and purchase
must involve. The bill will apply the
the latest principles of Scottish crofter
legislation to the cOngested districts;
will propose TO improve the procedure
under Lord Ashburn's acts. and devote
further grants of money for the pur-
poses of those acts, and will be closely
attended by the Irish solicitor generals
bill setting up local registrieS of title.
The idea of the cabinet ministers is that
the next shall be an Irish and English
session. The 1.-THE bill is to be followed
by the land transfer bill and the dis
trict councils bill. But this last is very
likely to be pressed out. partly because
the government is little afraid of the
matter. and also because there were
several necessary bills. such as the CEN
SuS bill, and one dealing with the new
schedules of railway rates, to which
early attention must be directed.
A protracted meeting of the cabinet was
held to-day at which was considered a
proposal for 100000 land purchase
scheme to apply to the disaffected por-
tons of ireland. 1t is understood that
there was not the degree of unanimity
with regard to the measure that should
characterize the consideration of so
vital an issue, and it is not unlikely that
if the scheme is launched upon Ihe sea
of legislation it will be open to the same
Obiectiods by many Tories that will be
raised against it by the Liberals and
Nationalist - that it diseriminates
against very considerable party of the
people of Ireland who are entitled to
all the benefits that the measure may
bestOw. Indeed, it is now quite plain
that the question of land purchase is
not the only one upon which there is a
diversity of views in the Conservative
ranks, and the government will have no
easy task to stear clear of breakers next
session.
