THE SITUATION.

Henry Clews says: The continued un-
certainty as TO what Congress may finally
do in respect to the tariff and the income
tax keeps business at large in very dull
and hesitating position. The Wilson
bill, with the Income tax provision at.
tached, now goes to the Senate, where It's
fate will soon be foreshadowed. Whether
defeated or successful, the final disposal
OF the measure will brins great relief by
ending suspense. The continued extensive
resumption OF factories and works closed
for months past, shows that manufac-
turers have become sensible of the close
exhaustion OF stocks In many branches OF
trade, and that they now feel II safe to
make provision for the later wants OF the
Spring season and for the Fall trade.
There seems TO be no doubt that the
country, especially In the interior, has
now fairly entered upon process OF re.
eovery; but it's progress must be expected
to be slow. SO far however, this recupera-
tion is only partly expressed in the
markets OF New York wi here he prevailing
pessimism seems TO frighten interior
buyers out of their disposition to increase
their purchases.

THEIR STORIES DISAGREE.
Ex.0fficers and seamen Of Brazilian Boats
Arrive at New York.

NEW YORK, Feb g. - The steamer
Pernambuoo, brought parts Of the crews
of the Brazilian cruisers America and
Eiotheroy. From the former there were
"a officers and men aud from the latter
five men. No complaint was heard from
them against their treatment by the Bra
lillian government.
The seam,n n, however, have a good deal
to say against the Americas officers. who,
they declare, treated them at times almost
inhumauly. James Oxford, seaman,
haillng from Bangor, Me, declared that
the food offered was repulsive. Al Per-
nambuco he was put on shore without
money. He slept on the street pavements
of Pernambuco and went without food
for 4S hours.
In all, Oxford said, there were Sc men
sent ashore at the time he was sent, ard
that three were left on shore for dead,
while one, George Cameron, had become
insane and was sent to An asylum. The
men say that they are going TO the Office
of Charles X. Flint a. Co. to endeavor to
obtain balance that they claim IL due
them.
On the other hand, the officers say that
the Indians" as they called the seamen,
had nothing TO complain of. They we
a drunken, mutinous set of men, Wa
could be subjected only by severe treat
ment AL the officers unite in condemn IL
ing the storing Of liquor on the vessel.
They say that this was done by the Bra
Gillian government The men broke open
the storehouse and helped themselves
freely. Thence originated all the trouble.

THE REGISTRY VOTER.

When the Bourne amendment to the
State constitution was adopted a great
many registry voters OF all parties voted
for II for the purpose OF abolishing the
property qualification. BY this act they
sacrificed their right to vote for Alder
men and Councilmen In the cities. 1t
was a measure which had been agitated
for generations in Rhode Island and IL
was finally enacted. But the registry
voters sacrificed great deal for that
principle upon the express promise Of
both parties that they would be given
back their rights after the amendment
was adopted. 1t is now time for both
parties to make that promise good.
