Ir is dangerous to let a man die in a | hotel in i'aris. A queer French law ! enables the landlord to present his bill 1 to the relatives tor the death.

This extortion ! would have been three times as frreat it ; the person had died of a contagious dis- I rase, and doubled if the deceased was a I prince or a member of any rich aris- j locratk) family. The allowances by j the judges, however, are generally j much less than the claims of the land- | lords.

It is a most unfortunate thing that this should have happened when the two men who are the control ing power in the navy are here in Washington attending the marine conference. One man-of-war could have put down any rebelion that could arise. It Captain Dagama or Captain Maurity were in Brazil, either could put down the revolution in one hour. They are both friends of the government and personal friends of the Emperor. It is most unfortunate that these two strongest men in the navy should be away from home at this time, but there has been no possible reason to expect such a thing to happen.

Since the t illennium has not made its appearance \ itb the advent of the AllAmerica cor ress, this is. of course, too , much to exp at. At the ver outset the Administration found itself ('tween the "devil and the , ! deep sea/’ a l rt'alised that in this AH- ; America con ress it had undertaken a i very large antract. The need for a strong hand and well-baianeed head at the helm to ulde the congress to an unsuccessful r suit became at once apparent, and In he forcing of that crafty ' statesman, 1 mes O. Blaine, upon the congress as t i presiding officer the head I of the Adrni istration showed "method in his madm is,” indeed. I The repre entatives of the various ! South Amei can republics in the congress are no fools, and while they may not be credit d with understanding any thing of tht true state of affairs, or as yet realising the insincerity of the Administration we must at least credit them with unders nding themselves and the interests of heir respective States sufficiently to l ■ fully alive to the concessions to be amended from us, with respect to the ities on the chief articles of commerc produced within their territories. \V hout going to any great extent into stalls, these products consist chiefly «f wheat, banley, potatoes, harks, sole- -other, dye-stuffs, alpaca and sheep's wool, tallow, sheepskins, dry hides, i je, drugs and chemicals, lumber, eoff s cocos.

Or, looking at the question nei er home, does any body suppose that the Administration is not fully aware t at we can not successfully compete wltl the other nations of the earth in chea ness of production so long as we are sprived of the free raw material by t e protective tariff, which it is pledged > sustain and keep intact? So it praotfally comes to this; Unless the Republic; a Administration is prepared to writ * and reform the tariff as radically as \ as proposed by the Mills hill, the A1 America congress might as well const ute itself into an international sigh seeing body, all it now is in fact, and 1 sving seen all It cams to see, quietly 4 ssolve and let each representative hit himseU to his domicile and recount t his people the story of the greatest i ece ef American humbug on record.—> Y.
