To this the Speaker made re ply: "I will settle this matter with you here or elsewhere" probably having long known that this was tbe form of defiance most esteemed by Southern "gentlemen" in the good old days of slavery and bullying, lint Mr. riammer rose to tbe occas ion in his retort, saying, "I once bad a brother who totally ruined a suit of clothes fighting a skunk, and I don't want to repeat his folly!" Patterson quit The issue of 6ilvercoin? was com menced at the Treasury in Washing ton and by the different U. S. depos itories throughout the country on Tuesday of last week. Tbe coins are issued under the same regulations heretofore observed for the redemp tion of fractional currency. Any per son desiring silver can procure the same br forwarding his fractional currency to the U. S. Treasurer when Le will be forwarded a warrant cn the nearest assistant U. S. Treasurer or U. S. Depository for the amount Coin will not be remitted to individ nals from the Treasury. In a very few daya silver will take the place of fractional currency all over tbe coun try, and as this currency is destroyed as fast as it is redeemed, if tbe peo ple pursue tbe foolish policy of hid ing away all the silver coin they re ccive ia exchange for it, tbe want of small change will soon be a crying evil ia business circles. Woilk we bold the Democrats in Congress perfectly justifiable in prob ing and laying bare all misdemean ors of the men in office, we hardly deem it necessary for the public good that every idle or malicious rumor pat afloat should at once be taken op aad pursued at the expense of the Government, with the hope of devel oping something out of which polit ical capital may be made for the com ing campaign. Tbe policy now be ing pursued by the Democratic inves tigating committees at Washington has converted them into huge scan dal mills, into which are emptied all the political sewage of the couc try, which, after being vigorously ag itated and tinctured, but not deodor ized, is again, through the partisan press, scattered broadcast over the land. Apart from this however, is tbe fact that tie well known eager ness of these committees for fresh scandals has superinduced the crea tion of them. Stories of the thinnest kind are invented by graceless fel lows who want a trip to Washington at government expense; they are forthwith seiied upon by the commit tees, tbe inventor is hastily summon ed before them, the scandal or rumor is retailed and disseminated throng, the newspapers, the witness receives Lit warrant tor fees and expense on tbe national treasury, and thc result, s general thing, is that the com mittee discovers its witness to bo a "dead beat," who has been speculat ing off tbetr wgiiey rcrduitv. the government pays.

Democratic House be careluiiy scru- .. : tm Oi' course, all is mere conjecture yet, as to the probable Presidential candidate who will carry the Tit-pub lican banner ia the comingcampaign, no one of the different gentlemen mentioned ia connection with tbe nomination having developed as yet, any special strength over that of his felloas. Dut as indicative cf public sentiment in this State as to our own candidate we publish below a couple of articles from journals in the ex treme ends of the State, and as radi ically different in political sentiment as they are extreme from each other in territorial location. The firs:, "Presidential Shiftings," is from that staid and trusty old Republican journ al, tbe Pittsburgh Gazelle, while the other, "Perils of a I'rcsidcuMal Can didate," we take from thc columns of that bright but intensely tnti-Kepub-lican sheet edited bv Col. Aleck Mc- Clure, tbe Philadelphia Timen: ErrldntlAl hkiftlnff What may be said at one tia:e as to the outlook for Presidential candi dates, is no criterion for another, as, at least in minor particulars, the sit uation changes almost continually. The elements of conflict, which will affect verv seriously the chancer of candidates, develop steadily, and tbe nature of thc contest at Cincinnati begins to bo more apparent. Illaine and Coukliug will evidently offset each other the former having tbe largest number of delegates, bnt with reports and rumors banging over bim such a vvill make it difficult fur bis friends to draw him support out side his pledged rauks. The latter will have firm and steady supporters, and whatever advantage er disad vantage may attend bis being regard ed as the President's candidate. Neither will have the strength to nom inate, and, as we now think, neither will bend to o' help the other. Bris lovv does not seem likeiy to comuiaud the btrength uecessary to coutrol the Convention, and ii subjected to tbe same form of injury as is Dlaiue. lie, thus fax, has met and f jught off every allegation of wrong, but the last of these manufactured reports has not yet been beard. Wiih or without them, be has not tbe dele gates to nomiaate him. Among what have been regarded as tbe minor candidates, heretofore, Governor Hartranft is unquestiona bly looming up with increased strength, and it now looks as if it were entirely possible t uomiuate bim, were the proper clement concentrated in tbat direction. Tbe exsminspon ef bis record shows him to have been a singularly sagacious, mild, pure, yet efficient Governor; and that he bus tbowa ability equal to tbat re quired for any position in the Govern ment of our nation. Exeeutire abil ity ia especially marked in bis cs&s, while the habit and power of obser vation, reflection, and the ability to lucidly and elegantly express his thoughts is very market!. In brif, ho possesses all the necessary traits for the position of President of the Uciud Stales, and as a candidate be fore the people, has been uniformly a luely man. IILs past career presents no salient points foratuck, hence he is a remarkably available candidate. These are facts that are beginning to be widely understood, and from all we learn from prominent persons in tbe party outside of Pennsylvania, we begin to strongly think than if our delegation is wide awake, end attend t their business, it is within their power to secure his nomination at Cincinnatti. In saying this, we cx- pre merely our present estimate of tbe situation, and have no purpose to depreciate tb general estimate of the cuauccsor the otW candidates.

The New York papers of yesterday give extended accounts of the arrival of tbe Emperor of Rrt7.il on Satur day afternoon. He refused to leave the sieam-ship lleve-lius, on which be bad made the voyage, and, quietly laadiug at the East River pier, was driven to Lis hotel in a hired carriage. Several tugs, with tbe Brazilian Cen tennial Commissioners and other offi cials, boarded the llevelius in the Lower Day. aud further up she was met by the United Stales steamship Alert, on board of which were tbe official representatives of the Govern ment. The 1'imes says: Ia a short time tbe Alert drew near the steamer, aad as she passed by tbe stern of tbe Hevdius about thirty "jaek tars," in white jackets aud black troftvers, manned tbe yards, while the nuvy yatd baud played the national Brazilian anthem. A salute ot thirteen guus was fired at the same time, the marines of the man-of-war being drawn up in line, with Secreta ries Robeson, Pish and Taft, Vice Admiral Rowan aad General Han cock in tho stern of tbe vessel. Tbe Aler then hove to and the above named officials, takincr the navy yard tug, approached the llevelius. After some delay they came on board. Tbe Emperor, seemingfy unconcerned, stood a few feet from the gangway ready to be introduced. The Brazil ian Minister stood by his side, and as Secretary cf State I'isb, leading the party, came up tbe bide of the vessel aud on the deck was introduced to Dom Pedro, wbu, not understanding the name, said "Feesh," Eecsh." Tbe Minister again pronounce! the name and tbe Emperor said ; "Jsecre tary Fisb, I have great pleasure ia making your acquaintance." Secre tary Fish then, i-baking tbe Emper crV band, said : "The President of tbe United Sates Lss deputed thc Secretary of War, the Secretary cf State, and tbe Secretary if trlA 1P noiiAm t-.i t wh?

He directed us to congratulate you upon the safe ter mination of roar voyage, and to ten der you his welcome, end that of tbe people of the United States, to this country. He anticipates a personal interview on the occasion of yocr visit to tbe seat cf Government.'' In reply, Doja Pedro said, "I thank you." Ihe other ciciyber3 of tbe party were then introduced.. The i-.ciperor expressed bis pleasure ai tbe meeting, and grasped each one oi them cordially by tbe hand When all a cre introduced, Dom Pe dro, noticing that General Sherman was not present, said, "Where u Sherman I" to which. Secretary Fish repiicei, "jje is on ll est." The Emperor then remained in eotugr? tion with the pwty for some time, during which Secretary fish invited him and his suit lo become guests on tbe Alert This invitation was eourt consly bnt firmly declined by tbe Emperor, who, as bo bad intimated to various passengers on the vessel, preferred to remain in his own quart ers and travel as a private gentleman. Refcrrine to this in a snbsennent conversation, Le said: "The Emperor o in Tlr7:l I m r.nl- A rr' rntu i..:i: :,: n 111 B.lliail 11L1.I U.

As the tug drew near tbe j Alert a ludicrous mistake happened. which was laughingly witoes d ly i the passengers of tbe llevelius. Tue tnir raoht1 I La Kidn i.f thn A ltrl aud the commanding otficer. not knowing that the Emperor hid de clined tbe invitation and supposing be was on the tag, drew up Lis ma rines on each side of tbe rniiav. with tbe band stationed in the rear, i leeawn .ull oeukeu up. tie waa The band lieiran tanlav. but n ) Em lied Sii'J.OOt) t-r tUe V-u-jk Mi.js peror appeared to appreciate the mu- s,c. Tbe llevelius then got under way, and proceeded on her trip U tbe'bay During the trip tbe Em peror wandered over the ship, f.vm group to sroup, inquiring about the various objects in tbe city, which fell under hi eye. Soon after the steam er was started Dom Pedro and uis party retired below, where they p ir tookof lunch. The emperor sat at tbe middle of an end table, wi b the Empress on his left. The rest of the suit were arranged opposite. A Per lunch the party came on deck, and tre Emperor under direction of vini .us parties, continued searchiug out ob jects of interest in the city. He ex pressed himself as very much pleas ed with the various buildings and places shown him, and seemed t) take a lively interest in these things, especially in public improvements Nothing of special intere-t occurred during the trip until tbe Heveliu-' ca ue opposite the battery, where ihe United States frigate Minnesota was Iving. Everybody expected thai a salute would be Bred by the M.uaes sota, bu' a mistake similar to that which occurred down tbe Bay wa made here. The coramaudiir of ihe frigate p.-obably supposed that ihe Emjieror was on board tbe Alert, which was bv this time far in ihe rear, and did not therefore fire bis sa lute until tbe later vessel drear op posite. Tbe Alert, after passing the Minnessota, went up tbe North river to pier No. 4. Meanwhile ihe lle velius steamed up to her wharf at Martin's Stores, Brooklyn. Here the news of tbe Emperor's arrival spread rapidly, and a great crowd were con gregated on the pier. The police. however, kept them back, aad a laud ing was effected without any serious trouble. Tbe first man to cross the gang plank was Mr. Harrab, who is a builder of tramways in Brazil. He rusbed on board and embraced sever al members of tbe royal party, lie at last re"bed tbe Emperor by whom he was cordially welcomed. Thc Brazilian party then took car riages which were in waiting and crossed tbe ferry. The Emper tr and Empress, and tbe Lord Cham berlain occupied tbe first carriage As tbe Empress reached tbe carriage and attempted loget into itsbeftuud that tbe step was too high f-r her. Ibe Emperor and Lord Chamber lain thereupon raised a commoti on, and tbe back-driver stepping for ward placed tbe cushion of nis -lent aud a blauket below tbe step. Tbe Empress was then assisted iuii the coach. The Emperor has a tail cuuimaud ing figure, being six fiet three inches in height. He is stout, though uwi disproportionately built, with a broad pair of shoulders. His bead is large and his forehead broad. He bns gray, almost white hair, with long, full whiskers of tbe same color. He has a pleasant voice, and when be speaks Euglisb, which be does q'.i.e fluently, it is with sharp accent Tbe Emperor was dressed iu blaea t,r tad clotb, and his coat was buttoned close to the neck. Yesterday m iruing, as be came on deck his hat was blown overboard, and during tbe remainder of the trip he wore a silk cap, navy pattern, with a very broad leather peak. Tbe Empress, who is three years older than her busbaad, be be ing Elty-one, is about a bead shorter tban he, and very heavy. Tbe Lord Chamberlain is a short, heavy m i i, of a pure Brazilian complexion a id jet-black hair. Thc Alert came steaming up Ue bat, and tbe immense crowd cilleci ed on the wharves supposed thai i! course tbe imperial party was ou board, while in reality it bad quietly landed from tbe Uevelius, aud was making its way towards tbe Fifth Avcoue Hotel unknown to an j body. Of this incident the Times sats: Every eye was strained to catch tbe first sight of the imperial visitors, aud many were found who affirmed that they could distinguish the flutter of the Empress' dress on tbe forward deck of tbe tug. Tho tug finely landed her passengers, and the su. party which had sailed away iu such high spirits four hours before ascend ed to tbe pier. Secretary Fih led the way, followed by his colleagues, Judge Tall and Secretary RoIm .-on, and the faces of all wore a mysteri ous tir, in which evident disappoint ment was mingled with an evident appreciation of tbe ludicrous '(e oi the scene. Gen. Haucock "..-!) stated that the imperial party ua i te- mained aboard tbe llevelius, U caa-e the Emperor did not care to re turn on a transfer to tbe Alert in the roub water of the bay. Tbe party then took their carriages aud drove rapid ly to the Fitib Avenue Hotel, to fiud that the Emperor and Empress had arrived half su hour before iheni. Up Twenty -third street to Fifth ave- enue the carriages of the Reception ComaiiitM were followed by throngs, who took them for the imperial cor tege. Ihe windows and sidewalks along the street were filled with spec tators, while flags were flying from many of ibe houses along tbe route. Th .,.Ur..o iti,. in. lar order, as well as tbe conduct of tbe Alert in lying the L'raziliun pen nant added to tho soccer of tbe hoax. Rooth'a Theatre, which bad been gaily decorated with the flags of all nations, received the returaiau- Secretaries witb the ringing of chimes and til the honors under the impres sion that they were the imperial par ty.
