as it is to restrict them to one fixed religiousceremony. A simple provision for civilmarriage is ali that can be required, not asan exclusive legal ceremony, but as an al-ternative where the contracting parties pre-fer it to the religious ceremony. Primarilymarriage is a private contract, and it shouldtherefore be left as far as possible to thelistes and preferences of the parties directlyconcerned. To prevent im proper and illc-gal uniohs, the state may very propcrly ex-act an application for a license, where proofsmay be required that no legal obstacle ex-ists to such union. Then, too, the statemay specify who is legally empowered tocelebrate marriage, impose penalties onthose infringing the law, and impose anobligation of registering the act at somespecified public ofiice. Béyorid that thestate should not go, and particularly undera form of government designed to leave itscitizens free to manage their own aflairs.In a republic we are concerned mainly topreserve order, prevent crime and see thatjustice is executed between man and man.These matters of personal sentiment arebest left to individual choice.

Thk. new constitution was formally signedyesterday evening and was promulgatcd bya decree of the same date. It appears, froma hasty examination, to be a dose copy ofthc constitution ol the United States, evento the re ten ti oii c.í features, such as the coi-lege oí electors in presidential elections,which experience lias proved to be imprac-ticable. It also contains restrictions, suchas the sole recognition of civil marriage,which must precede the religious ceremony,which seem to us out of place iri a funda-mental law of this character. In other re-spects, however, the instrument, like itscelebrated model, is most wisely and liber-aíly concèivèd. In some particulars it con-tains decided improvements on the Ameri-can constitution, as in the extension of thepresidential term to six years and a prohi-bition on a second sueceeding term. Thiswill render it impossible for any Presidentto intrigue lor his re-election, though it willnot prevent such intrigues as that which se-cured the election of President Çelmah, olArgentina. In a general sense the newconstitution provides for a federal union ofthe old provinces under thc designation ofstates; for a President and Vice-Prcsidentelected indirectly by popular vote for a termof six years, not etigible for re-election fornext sueceeding term; a natiònal Congressof two chambers, viz.: a Chamber of Depu-lies elected for three years by popular votein the ratio of onc to every 70,000 of popu-lation, and a Senate elected by state legisla-tures in the proportion of three to each statefor periods of nine years, renewable bythirds; a federal district for the natiònalcapital, invested with the rights of represen-tation similar to the states; a federal judi-ciary composed of a Supreme FederalTribunal of 15 justices appointed for life,and district tribunais; a cabinet of ministersto advise and assist the President; responsi-bility of President and cabinet before theSupreme Tribunal and Senate; the auton-omy ofthe states for local government; uni-versai sulírage for ali citizens except beg-gars, illiterates, private soldiers and mem-bers <>f religious orders and bodies owingallegiance to rules which deprive them oftheir individual liberty. The states mustadopt constitutions and organize their gov-ernments before the end of 1892. The firstelection of President and Vice-Prcsidentwill be by the Congress called to meet onNovember 151b next, and the first term willend 011 November 15th, 1896. The presiden-tial elections will be held on March ist, theelectoral college will meet May ist, andCongress will assemble annually on May3rd. From a cursor}' glance, the consti tu-tion is an able document, and the country isto be congratulated on its promulgation,even if it is not an expression of popularchoice.

The dispatch from the minister of agri-culture to bis colleague at the Treasury, atranslation of which we publish elsewhere,will wc trust lead to a strict investigationinto the question of "aid to agriculture,''and also to some official report as to themanner in which the favored banks haveemployed tbe enórmoüs sum of money—over 40,000,000$—advanced by lhe Treas-ury, free of interest, to meet thc complaintsof the sufTering agriculturists of Brazil.From the incèplion we have combatled thisidea. Il was openly a political move to se-cure voles from unrüly planters; it wasstigmatizèd as such and the fear was ex-pressed that it would result in scandalousjobbery. The question would not havebeen veiililated, we fear, but (or lhe confiictbetween the Banco Colónisador e Agricolaand the inspector-general ol lands and colo-nizalion, which is to result in a suitor suitsfor libel, for it was very evident that theTreasury was quite prepared to continue Sr.Affonso Celsos contracts until the questionof funds arose. And it is also to be fearedthat the Treasury had no inten tion of takingsteps t«) eníorce those çlauses of the con-tracts lhat provide for the banks advancingIrom their own funds a sum equal to thatadvanced by the state. Such banks as havelarge amounts represehting mortgages ontheir books may easily meet the law by atransfer from one to another account, forrenewals are declared to be legitimate " aidto agriculture" by the minister of finance :but such banks as were started merely towork the proflered government agencv willbe placed in serious straits, if the Treasuryinsists upon their fulfilling the strict termsof their contracts. And it is to be hopedthis will be insisted upon. From a com-mercial point of view it would have beeninfinitely preferable had the governmenttaken over the land represenled by this 40,-000,000$ and proceeded as the banks do insimilar cases—appoint the former ownersoverseers with a salary. For in this casethe "aid to agriculture" would have reachedlhe agriculturist, whereas it is now toleràblycertain that it has been interceptei! beforereaching him. This question ol" "aid toagriculture" needs lhe lullest investigationand it is onlv to be attributed to fear oí theomnipotent pianter, lhat so much delay hasoccurred in securing it.

He informs us that objeclions wereat first made to his examining the books,and that on looking them over he found ]\Ir.Wetson's narre entered as ''João Wilson."He then learned that the pátieht had diedearly in May and that his name was pub-lished as "Jo.sé Wilson." Our informantis a gentlértian whose word can not bequestioned, but if Sr. Colonna wishesfurther proof we beg to refer him to llieburial list of May 6th, publislied in theJornal do Cominercio of May ioth, wheremay be ssei this en,ry: " Hemorrkagiacerebral,—O Americano José Wilson, 61annos, soHeiro, morador na rua do Curvellon. 17 e fallecido no hospital da Misericor-dia." This c'early proves ali the state-ments made in these cohimns and is, in ouropinion, ample justi ficalion for our criteismson the management of that institution.As to our còmplaint that Protesianl in matesaie not permitted to have clergytnèh andpublications of their faith, the admiriistratórissilent. Itis an old dispute on which there isnothing more to be said, except to petitionthe government for a pròpòr.tional divisionof the port dues, now paiu the Misericórdia,with some cher hospital where completereligious toleralion exists. And now thatwe are discussing this matter, will Sr. Col-onna give us information (not imagination)in regard to this case ? We have the namesof three men, presumably sailors, who statethat they saw an attehdant strike a.sickman, an American named George Plum-mer, across- the breast with a folded sheetat half past íive o clock on the móm-ing of the iSth inst., at the same timecalling him vile names, because lhe patienthad soiled his bed. Plnmmer was lyingonhis bed in a helpless condition, and died at12:15 p.m. on the same day—less than

seven hours after this b .ltal treatment. Inthe name of humanily such iucidents as thiscannot be permitted to pass without investi-gation. Sr. Colonna will now permit us toadd that wetlo not charge the sisters andadminislrafors of the hospital wilh wi.lfulneglect and cruelty, but we do charge thatthere is culpable negligence, needless intol-erance, unwarranied restfiction upon friendsand visitors, and frequeiitly very hársh treat-ment by stewards and nurses. There isalso too much carelessness in lhe medicaiand surgical treatment of ihmates, as maybe yerified from the number of deaths fu!-lowing surgical operations. This is a quês-tion, however, for future discussion.

FOREIGN COMPANIES.Rio de Janeiro, 14 th June, 1890.

To the Editor ofthe Rio Nkws :S.IR, — ít is obvious that the second of

your leading articles ofthe 9 th inst. relátingLo the Companies Act of 17Ü1 January., waswritten before you had time lo sludy theminister's declaration of 71b June. Thisdeclaration limits the obligation pf foreigncompanies already established here to com-pliàncü wilh the dispositions of only thefinal clause of Art. i, viz.: No. III, whichrefers merely lo registralion of the statutesand such other formalities. Foreign bank-ing companies that may come to be estab-lished here from the dale of lhe decree on-ward (lili its revocation) will still be subject tothe condition of "reâlizing within two yearstwo-thirds, at least, of lheir capital in thiscountry," whatever that may exactly mean.But lhe declaration makes il quite clear andfinal that neither this obligation, nor anyother beyond those reláting to the formali-ties before mentioned, is now incumbent onthe banks or companies already establishedhere. This is, of course, quite lhe con-trarv of what was óriginãlly intended, thevague provisiori as lo realizàtiõh of capitalbeing plainly désigned not to deter the es-lablishmerit of new banks, but to hang as akind of menace over the foreign banks al-ready established. so as 10 induce good con-duct, such as their drawing at unprofitablerales whenever exchangé might be weak. Itis not agreeable to say anylhing so discour-teous of a ministerial declaration, but thetheory ofthe omission by a ''çlerical error"of the words "anonyma bancaria" in No. 1of § 2 of Art. 1, is quite unaccounlable, forvarious reasons, one of which is that thesewords res tri ct in a way evidently not in-tended the application ofthe following twonumbers in which lhe words ''these com-panies" would wilh the alteration refer onlyto banking companies.

I am, Sir, etc,

the speciíied proportion of capital within theco-ntrv at once. Any other interpretationinvolves an absurdity. These comnanieshad aheady been compelled to apply forauthorizatioh to transact busine.ss, evenwhen, like the Lidgerwood ManufacturingCo., they had been established here fortwenty or thirty years ; and they had alsocomplied with ali the requirements ofregistéring their statutes, lists of share-holders, etc. Givirig them six months totio what luis already been done is clearlyabsurd. Still further, the last number ofthe last section of Art. 1. to which theDiário Official says that Art. xxxiii refers,is in itself only a "pointer" to another partof the decree, viz. : Art. iv, § 4, Nos. 1to 3, and § 5. K these particulars onlywere in view, why -did not Art. xxxrn referto them directly, instead of through theroündábout médium of .Art. 1, § 2, ni ?And if the minister méàrit this last numberof Art. 1, why did he not specify it in íig-tires, as is almost invariably done. insteadof using lhe indèfmite phrase "in fine,''which is generally used in another sense ?

However, a.s the explanalion stands, ex-isting foreign companies have two years forcompliance with tlie decree, instead of sixmonths. The minister of finance is a law-yer and must know the value of clear, ex-plicit and unequivocál terms, and we trustthat he will improve the first opportunity torevise these vague expressions so that noone mav be decèived. Perhaps a revisorycommission would not be a bad measure forthe first General Assembly, for the expresspurpose of lègàlizing the.se hastily-drawndecrees and siinplifying and harmonizingtheir provisions ?

If the leading article in the Diário ,/<¦Noticias of 171b June is to be taken as afair indication of the sentiments entertainedby the minister of finance towárds foreign-cts and merchants, then lhe outlook for tlieimmediate future isanythingbut reassuring.We are aceustomed to consider this paperas the personal organ of lhe minister ;therefore its opinions on current topies ofgreat importance must be considered asmore or less inspired. When, therefore,wc find the hundred and fifty importantmercantile firms who recently protestei!against the 20% gohl duties, described as ahalf-dozèn intrigueis, and lheir prótest as a"representação dos inglezes? follòwed byinsinuations that the signatures were ob-tained by intrigue, falsehood and coercion,it is full time to call a halt. The ministerof finance ought to know—and leàch hishenchmen as well—that there are no firmsin Brazil more- respectable and influentialthan those which signed that represenlation.As they belong to a class through who.sehands three-fourths ol the public revenue ispaid, their opinion is enlitled to seriousconsidera ti 011 and may be considered 10

It is possible, of course, that we aremis taken in our interpretation of lhe lawas it now stands, particularly as it is of-ficially explained that the article in questionmeans something widely different fromwhat it says. As a minister's unoflicial ex-planalion is not law, we have given theitiisigned explanalion published in the Di-ario Official of (une 7th, which may, ormay noi have emanated from lhe Treasuryatuí certainly has no legal force, no motecredit than mav be given lo any other in-dividual opinion. In countries governei!by parliamentary institutions, it generallyrequires a legislalive act to concei even açlerical error, bul admitting thal the manwho enjoys lhe authority lo decree such alaw, may further exercise the power tomake subsequent correclions, can we féèlassured that his suecessors will accept hisihterpretations of passages which are cer-tainly far from clear ?

With respect to the interpretation ofArt. 33, ^[, which mav or may not seriouslyatlect the status of foreign companies inBrazil, is it clear that this unollicial andunsigned declaration oi June 71I1 settles alidoubts? Let us see. The article in quês-tion reads as follows:

Art. XXXIII, II,—-Foreign societies now existingin tlie country are obliged to comply with the dis-posttions of Ail. 1 in fine within six mouths, (ocoiiut dom tlie date ol the publieation ol thepresent decree; penalty tliat of losing the right totransact business in this republic.

It has always been our opinion that thisarticle was désigned soleiy for the appli-cation of the words "within six months" to

Ou tlie 101I1 inst. the Diário Ofjiciat piiblishes adispatch from Gen. Glycerio, minister ol agriçul-ture, lo Gen. Barbosa, niinistei of finance, svhiclimay be Iranslaléd as follows :

Kio de Janeiro, June 7th, uSoo.Sr. Minister:

the Brazilian minister had been formally receivedby thc president of the French republic, and thatmilitary honors had been shown him.

—On the 22nd the Diaiio do Commeicio gives anaccount oí a most brutal atlack by an armed en-sign of the army upon a civilian, unarmed. Ií lhestory is true, the aceused man deserves FernandoNoronha.

—On thc 2oth inst. a man condemned in 1847to imprisonment for life, .for poisoning his wife,was pardoned by Gen. Deodoro. For.ty-lhr.ee

years oí penilence should certainly have com-muted lhe crime.

—On the 22nd lhe Diaiio de Ahiticias was partic-ulaily happy in a metaplior. The government or-

gan likens the decreeing of the constitution to thc

plàcing of a cúpola on a building; and so it is, but-where is lhe/ building?

— lt is said lhat the rush of foreigners through-out tlie provinces, on the I4U1, to register non-acceptance of Brazilian cilizensliip, was soinellungiinexampled. In Pelotas, 184 Portuguese wereregii terèd the last day, and they paid 5$6oo eachfor lhe privilege, loo!

—On lhe 201I1 a Spanish woman, still young, ap-

pear.ed at the police oflice and declared that as hertwo children, 3 and 5 years old, prevented herearning a living, she wished to turn them over tolhe authorities, who appear to have taken churgeof these foundlings of a new description.

—Gen Constant did not like a reference made bythe Diai to do Commercio to his tables drnwn up forthe benefit ol thc old " Monte Pio " and sent Ma-

jor Sodré to explain thal these tables had been sub-mitted to ample discussion, both at the PolytechnicSchool and by lhe directors of the Monte Pio.There is 110 reason to doubt this; Gen. Constantestables were not inlallible ali the same, although itmay be granted that mortality tables are not easilycalculated,

—On the 2lst inst. the Diano do Commerciotells lhe story ol a poor man in the last stages olconsumption, a patieiit in lhe Misericórdia hospital,who wished to legitimize his children by marryinghis mislress, their mother. The woman was aniinor, and Sr. Aragão, the judge of niarriages,salvo seja, placed obstacles in the way, with theresult that the man died and the woman andchildren are left without the reparation which lhedying man wished to make.

—Among thc depar tu res by lhe Britannia 011the 18U1 inst. was Mr. A. T. Crocker, ol lheFquilable Life Assurance Society, who has beenemployed here during the past six months in or-

ganizing the work which that company has under-taken in ihis country. In his short residence hereMr. Crocker made many warm personal friendswhose good wishes go with him wherever he maygo. Should he ever return ihis way again he willmeet with a hearty reception.

—A niysterious crime oceurred here 011 the nightof lhe I7th inst. A man whose name is given asElliott and who is descrilud as an American, wasfound dead with his throat cut, in his house 011 theRua Santa Luzia. The inan's wife declared hehad come home drtink and cul his throat in a lit offreiuy with a piece of crockcry, but the police sur-

geons .suspect a crime írom their examination ofthe wound, and the authorities have thc wife anda female servant in custody.

—As a poor laborer was sprinkling chloride oílime about a sewer ojicning a few days since, a lit-tle oí lhe powdcr fell on thc iminaculatc unmen-tionables of a passing police inspector. An ex-plosion of righleous indigtiation itnmedialely foi-lowcd aud tlie-poor fellow was mardied off to apolice station under arrest. Fveiilually the pris-oner was discliarged and lhe arrest called an " cx-cess of real," but no satisfaction is ofTcrcd fer lheontrage. When are we lo have a decree ait'1» mt.ing penalties for false iinprisonntent ?

—The new 10$ notes of the Banco do Brazil,printed by the American Bank Note Co., are un-questionably lhe finest specimens of bank notework ever issued in this country. Thc engravirigis exceplionally fine and is shown to the best ad-vantage by lhe light brown color of the ink. Itwill be impossible to counterfeit the note by anyknown photographic process.

—Could not Admirai Wandcnkolk "cast an eyeto leeward" and have lhe piíots of the ferry boatslooked afler? We have good information that dur-ing this foggy season these piíots are considerablyat sea, and the compass does nol help them much.When sea-faring passengers are 011 board, no dan-ger is imminent; but if no maritime expert shouldhappen lo be on board an accident may happen.

—A recent robbery attracts peculiar attention.The irreverent rascals broke into and robbed thehouse of Gen. Boeayuva, the minister of foreignaffairs, and secured a quantity of cash that theminister had been hoarding—possibly with an eyelo a sudden trip to foreign paris. Why did Gen.Boeayuva keep his economies at home? Let Gen.Barbosa explain this apparent unbelief in hisbanks and financial system.

MARKET REPORT.Rio de Janeiro, 23rd June, 1890

Exports.

Coffee.—Some little business has been doing during theweek, lhe sales probably amounting to 30,000 bags, nearly all

of which goes to the United States by tbe Nasmytli. Re-

ceipts have increased smartly tn proportion to precedingweeks. but are after all still very moderate, and the probabil-ities are lhat they will be irregular during this season, for, if

the published accounts are reliable, the question of labor in •

the state of Rio de Janeiro is ven' far from settled. On thei7th some of the brokers reduced quotations by 200 rs. perarroba, and again on tlie 2oth by 300 rs., but this last reduc-

tion is not generally made, and tbe published quotations areonly 200 rs. lower than at date of our last, to which extent

tbe official value at the custom house was also reduced lastSaturday. Stocks begin to increase, but are still very small.

Sliipments since our last report have been :

In the accompatiying table we have dedueted 2,455 bags

RUBBER.—In the absence ol any new feature to distlirb thcgeneral position nfthis article, our market has continued re"markably even iu tone and temper during the last three weeks.Ali arrivals fiiiding ready buyers without exciting undue com-petition, prices have ruled steady, and tinaílccted by occasionalfluetuations of exchange, at 3S.500 per kilo. for fine, and a.fóooforcoarse Upriver, and at 3$3so and 2$3So for Is].uU!s. thclatter description only having impiovcd in value since our lastadvices. As was expected entries have also this month fallenshort of thc quantity received during the same period last yeartbe diffeience being Sj tons, viz; 660 tons against 740 tons inMay, 1889. These short receipls added lo the 580 tons of lhepreceding months give so far a total deficiency of 660 tons, ascompared with last year; certainly a serious item COllsidering,that it represents 4 per cent. of last ycar's crop, that there hasnever before been a rctrogiession in lhe former annually in-creasing produetion of rubber and that the growing consump-tion of this article can but badly afford to he deprived of solarge a quantity at thc present lime.
