COUNT 'slh1RI6uEs
Looking to a Restoration Of the
Brazilian Monarchy.
he HAS NOW GIVEN UP HOPE
The Late Insurrection- Was Conduct
ed With Money He Furnished, aud
Was for the Purpose of Placing His
Eldest Son On the ThrOne-Repub-
lie Has Come to Stay.

Little Importance is attached here to
the reported plot in Brazil to restore the
monarchy.
There Is no mvnarchical party in the re-
public, although many persons who were
prominently connected with the empire
are still hopeful that some turn of fortunes
wheel will yet restore the family of the
late Dom Pcdru TO the throne.
There is every indication that the re-
public in Brazil has come 10 stay. The
country was never So prosperous as IL Is
at present, ana new era OF prosperity,
it is claimed, set in from the deportation
of the Emperor five years ago.
The annual exports, which reached their
maXImum OF not more than $lOV,OU0,UVO
under the empire, We're, during the last
twelve months, $3.50 COO. 900. In sume
states the revenues have doubled and
tripled, and the finances of all show
gratifying improvement from year TO year.
NEW ORDER OF THINGS.
The reason is easily found. Under the
empire all revenues were covered into the
imperial treasury. The national appru-
priations, on the other hand, were In
many cases wholly disproportionate either
to the revenues FURNISHED or to the ueces-
sites OF the several states.
Under the new order of things each
state contrhls its own revenue, and as a
result internal improvements have been
fostered, which in turn add greatly to the
general welfare.
With this object lesson before their
eyes, even those who arc not in full SYM
pathy with the republic could not, it is
said, he persuaded To agree TO a change
OF government
The strongest Indication which has been
..,k..N
Brazil to return to Imperialism was seen
in n recent election in the federal dis
trict which includes the city of Rio Janero
for senator. Senators in Brazil are elected
by the people.
The monarchists, who are stronger In
Rio than in any other locality, ind0rsed
the candidacy of a gentleman of strong i'm
periaitst Affiliations. He received little
more than 900 votes and was over whclm-
tns'y defeated by his republican opponent.
COUNT DEUS HOPES.
1t is not doubted that Count d'Eu, who
married the eldest daughter OF the late Dom
Fedro, is the central figure in all the In
trigucs, past and present, looking to a re-
storation of the monarchy.
he is known 10 have been in regular COM
municaiion with certain OF his friends in
Brazil, and ii is also known that he furnish
ed a considerable part OF the money ith
" hich the late insurrection in the republic
was conducted.
The underlying purpose OF that revolution
after Admiral Saldhana dc CANA Joined it,
was to re-cstablish the empire, and place the
eldest son of Count d 'Eu on the throne.
Butforthe Intervention ofthe United States
and It's strong manifestation of sympathy
with the FOnseca government, it is not
unlikely that the revolution might have
succeeded.
II as an open secret at the time that
Austria and Portugal stood ready to assist
the revolutionists, and they W ould probably
have done SO but for the attitude Of the
American government.
With the collapse of the rebellion ended
Count deus dream of restoring his wifc's
family TO power again.
