REPUBLICAN AMERICA,
Westward the star of empire takes its way,
The first three acts already past,
The noblest offspring is her last. "

The first three acts already past,
The noblest offspring is her last
In Bishop Berkley's prophetic drama
the curtain has risen upon another scene
on the worlds stage. The Brazilian EN-
pire, occupying, with her magnificent do
main OF $4,000 square miles, nearly one
half of South America, has wheeled into
the splendid column of American repub-
lies and joined the stately march of free
dom's hosts toward the bright future of
the race. Brazil has the distinction of
possessing the largest river and the largest
coast line of any nation Of the world save
ours. Her twelve largest rivers drain a
country containing $4,000 square miles.
Her mountain systems are continental in
extent Her immeasurable resources Of
tropical vegetation only surpass the pos
sibilities of her temperate zone. Her ed
ucated people, although not very large
number, are singularly liberal and tolerant

emperor has prepared the way for the
higher political conditions of her I'M
taught people. The Acknowledgement of
her slaves, two years ago, was the prelude
to the greater movement which brought
the nation into line. The unequaled
growth and prosperity of triumphant
democracy in our own United States has
done it's silent work. When the perma-
nency of our union was proved under the
heaviest shock and convulsion that ever
tested nation, in our civil war, by
happy restoration to union and peace it
set all the world to thinking
anew for themselves. In the north our
neghbors formed the Dominion of Canada
in the south Mexico hurled Maximilianni's
ephemeral empire to the ground and
strengthened the bulwarks of self govern
ment. The Pacific coast kingdoms OF
Central and South America changed their
banners, one after another, to the flags
Of republics. Imperial Brazil, under the
mild scepter OF Dom Pedro, watched and
waited till he who had given in half a
century of reigning repeated largesses Of
liberty, should grow too old to WELD pow
err. In one days circle of the sunlight
across his regal domain that people have
turned the shadow on the dial forward to
mark the birth of new republic.
What must be the effect on European
monarchies, almost half the world re-
publican? France will grasp more fully
the republican principles of government.
Spain will ere long again cast off kingly
yoke and recall the enthusiams of her brief
republican days. Victoria, empress, may
prove the last monarch of Great Britain.
Russias millions will become more
restless under autocratic rule, Garibaldi's
Italy will tremble with a new impulse
to be wholly free, while Prussia, Austria
and Turkey will with new eagerness
strengthen the armies by which the most
conservative people in Europe maintain
the shattered idea of the divine right OF
kings. A new measure in the anthem,
Vox Populi Vox Del, rolls out upon the
world and the nations will fear, if they do

AT a convention of ore producers in
Salt Lake few days ago among other
things a resolution was adopted favoring
the union of the mining states and terri
tories for mutual benefit. The idea is an
excellent one, and New Mexico miners
would doubtless be glad to cooperate.
The matter ought to be discussed, and the
preliminaries arranged during the sitting
of the national silver convention which
opens in St. Louis tomorrow.

THE London Times thinks that Ger.

the Brazilian monarchy. The London
Times, however, is somewhat off this
time. The Monroe doctrine will interfere.
France and Austria had taste OF the
Monroe doctrine in Mexico that was more
than enough for them. Now if Germany
and Spain want a dish of it, let them
come on and take it.

ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE

The GAZETTE, chronologically,
is in the NINETIETH year Of its ex-
istence, and is lot only the Oldest
paper in the State, but, with few
exceptions, in the country.
Notwithstanding the fulness of
its years, it has kept, and will con-
tinue to keep, abreast of the times
in all that pertains to NEWS paper,
furnishing its readers daily with a
perfect mirror Of passing events,
domestic and foreign.
Its facilities for obtaining news
as they increase are taken advan-
tage of and used for the benefit of
its readers, who are thus kept
thoroughly posted as to all that is
of interest politically, socially, fl
financially or commercially.
Special attention is given TO mat
ters concerning the State and It's
welfare, while it's local columns
contain all that is of the slightest
interest to Alexandrians.
Its regular correspondence from
Washington and Richmond are fea-
lures of peculiar interest, as attest
ed by the eagerness with which
they are read and copied by other
papers, while its editorial depart
ment, conducted with reference to
the best interests Of the city, State
and country, will continue to ad-
vocate what is believed to be right,
just, honest and patriotic.
With a view to the interest of
merchants, farmers and all inter-
ested, its commercial columns are
carefully edited and its market re-
ports are acknowledged by all to
be faithful and accurate.
Through all this section of the
State, and in all parts of the coun-
try where Virginians have located,
there will the GAZETTE generally
be found, and thus as an advertis-
ing medium it has few equals out
side the large cities.
In the household, counting room
and workshop it is an ever-welcome
visitor, acceptable alike to old and
young, the grave and the gay.

Caroline Davis, or Palmer (ooIoredl. was
placed on trial in the Criminal Court before
Judge Collier yesterday, charged with the
murder of Alfred J. Davis (colored), with
whom she lived as his wife, on January6 The
prosecution claim the defendant deliberately
shot and killed Davis. The attorneys for the
defense, Messrs. William Reardon, Thomas M.
Marshall and Thomas NJ. Marshall Jr, saw that
they are able to show that Davis shot himself
and that the accused had nothing to do with it.
The first witness placed on the stand was a
little colored girl named Nicely White. DAVIS
and Cable w. Nichols ran . restaurant at No.
% Frankstown avenue, in partnership. Nicely
White was employed by them. She said that
Davis had litter of pups which he kept in the
room In which himself, Mrs. Davis and Nicely
White slept Mrs. Davis objected to the pups
being there, but Davis would not have them
taken out OF the room. On New Years eve
Mrs. Davis threw five of the pups out of the
window into the alley, and drowned the rest
Mhen Mr.. Davis came home the witness heard
them lighting She heard Davis say to Mrs
Davis that he would break her neck About
week before the shooting, witness saw Mrs.
DAVIS with pistol 1t was lying on the win
dow sill IN the room She thought Mrs DAVIS
said something about it's being rusty. Witness
did not see where the revolver was put, and
Mrs Davis had been in bed 10 or Is min
utes on the night Of the shooting, before Davis
came home. When the shot that killed Davis
was fred, witness jumped out of a window
troE the bedroom into the restaurant, and did
not 90 upstairs afterward. Mrs Davis went
mp when the officer came.
When Davis came In he asked, 'Meely are
you asleepT' Witness thinks Mrs Davis was
asleep at that time Davis sat down and be-
gan TO read a book, and witness fell asleep. /
She was awakened by hearing q pistol shot.
and sprang up In the bed. She heard no
scream and saw no smoke. Neither Mr. nor
Mrs. Davis spoke TO her. When witness looked
around, Mrs. Davis was by the side of the bed
She picked up the end her nightgown and
ran out Of thereon. Davis jumped up off the
noor and ran TO the door after her. He could
not speak, because his mouth was full of
blood. When he got to the door he fell down
