Brazil and the United states.

The friendly exchanges that have recent
ly taken place between Brazil and the
United States give pleasing evidence of the
harmonious relations OF the Governments of
the two countries. The Brazilian squadron,
which was recently welcomed to this port
in distinguished way. had hardly left our
shores when we got news Of the fine recep-
ton given to our South Atlantic squadron
by the official authorities at Rio de JaneirO.
AS the Brazilian officers were hOnOred here,
so were our own officers hOnOred there; the
former enjoyed an entertainment al the
White House in Washington, and the latter
were grandly entertained at the Presidents
palace in Rio. These were surely pleasant
exchanges between the chief republic Of
North America and the chief republic Of
South America. Long life to both Of them.

Commeldabie Independence.
Lsnringneld Republican,

Senator Teller said to his colleagues in
the Senate the other day that he proposed to
vote upon the Lodge bill according 10 my
Judgment and my cOnscience"-that is,
upon its merits, regardless of caucus die
tates or committee recommendations. 1t is
to be hoped that he will persevere in this
meritorious purpose and that other Sena-
tors will profit by his somewhat unusual
example. If this was the rule in all cases
what graveyard for jobs, partisan meas
ures, defective bills, and poor nominations
the senate would be.

Mr., Parneii.

The weakness OF Mr.. Parnelps cause
manifests itself by his violent actions and
tho loose rein which he gives TO his tongue.
Indeed, these things furnish ground for the
claim that his mind is unbalanced. In one
Of his speeches yesterday he alluded TO his
opponents in the Irish party AS "miserabe
gutter sparrows." SO clear-sighted a man
as Mr.. Parnell has often shown himself 10
be must know that he has nothing TO gain
by resorting TO billIngsgate. 1t is, in fact,
practical confession Of failure at the be-
ginning OF the struggle.

Justice for New York.

Under the apporioDmenf OF S56 men,
bers in the House Of the Fifty-third Con-
gress New York would neither gain nor lose
upon its delegation OF thirty-four represent
atiyes. But justice might be done to New
York by increasing its representation To
thirty-hye without disturbing this appor-
tionment. 1t is evident from the police
count of the population of New York city
that Porter's census returns fall short OF the
actual population by the amount of rate

Congress has met now under circum.
stances which render ii clearly appropriat,
that only the most exigent legislation shall
be considered. This is so plain upon the
