Death of Dom Pedro.

Dom Pedro, ex- Emperor of Brazil, died
in Paris, December, 4, aged &c years. of
diaHetis. 1t is said that almost the last, if
not the last. conscious words of the ex-
Emperor, were an exp ession of his deep
affection for Brazil aud regrets that he
could not 20 back there to die. The
Princess Isabella was at her fathers bed
side at the time OF his death, and was
overwhelmed with grief to such an extent
that it is feared thst she too may be Sc
riously ill. The Count d'Eu, husband of
the princess WIS also present.
In November, 1889. occurred the sudden
revolution which drove him from his
throne, and exiled him and the RI st of the
royal family from Brazil. Various causes
led up to this catastrophe, among them
the extreme unpopularity of the Govern
ment, more the fault of circumst n { es
than of the Emperor. For instance, in the
last election held under The empire ty au
nical and obnoxious measures were resort.
ed to to secure a majority of the Covert
ments supporters. Since his downfall
Dom Pedro lived much of the time in Por.
tugal.
The reign of Dom Pedro WAS one of con.
tinued progress and prosperity. Before
he assembled the throne Brazil had been
constantly distracted by the quarrels of
factions and frequently been distracted by
civil war. His humane, enlightened rue
and he exertion of his cul ivated tastes,
tended to convert the country, that once
was sparsely peopled by mixed and lawless
races, into a compact and powerful nation.
Along the path of civilizat on and mater.
lal development great advance was made
Population increased, slavery was abo ish
ed, schools were established, RAILWAYS
built vest tracts of country explored and
settled, and lines of steam Communication
establishe upon the great interior rivers,
as well as between the sesports and the
United States and Europe.

The conditions of weather and ground
have been of the most favorable character
during the fall, and the preliminary work
has been carried on very easily. A Ban
gor gentleman who is in position to know
says that the lumber cut on the Upper Pc
nobscot will not be over two thirds what
1t was in 1891. He said there would not be
so much were it not for the fact that some

Governor Hills attempts to change thu
results OF election in enough senatorial
districts to change the political character
of that body, are characteristic Of tn,
man. While Maine Democratic paper,
commend Hills acts, he is getting gooc
many rebukes for his seat-stealing schem,
from even the Democratic papers of New
York. The New York Times is very out
spoken in condemnation. The Enquirer
of Buffalo, which is strongly Democratic
declares that the Democratic party caunol
afford to endorse such measures as Hill is
resorting to and that no reputable Demo.
crat will endorse them. The Enterprise
of Poughkeepsie characterizes the steal
ing Of Senator Deane's seat as IAN exhibi.

jugglery that the country has ever SEEN"
