The Brazilien Government did not at last sccept De Game's terms as was tele graphed over the country, and gave notice that tbey would open fire at noon Tuesday, March lSlb, and at noon of that day the Government forces began active operations sgsinst the insurgents, the forty eight iiiiis noiie jj.vi-o by Prrsi dent Peiiotto having expired. The hill top batteries nne.ieU fire at I o'clock p. m. No rrply was made by the insurgents. Tbe Government vessels entered the the harbor at 5 o'clock bnt did not fire. They found forts Villegagnon and Cobras abandoned I y tbe insurpenta. The fleet was greeted with cheers from thousands of people on tbe bill tops and with sa lutes from all the Government forts. Tbe insurgents' ships meanwhile hid them selves among the merchant vessels laying in thr. bay, Admiral Da Gama is reported to have fled aboard a French warship. The firing of tbe batteries lasted for an hour. The insurgents did not fire a shot husbanding their ammunition.) At 4 o'clock, tbe Government fleet appeared off ttie harbor, the torpedo boat Aurora leading. Immediately upon the appearance of the squadron the rebels hauled down the white ensign from one of the ships, which was lying near Enchadas, and hoisted a signal which was answered Ironi ashore. A launch containing an officer then went from one insurgent ship to another and each vessel lowered the white flag. Two torpedo boats frsni the Govern ment fleet putside then entered the bay, One of them went to Fort Villegagnon and it was shortly followed by the launch from the rebel's ship. A few minutes later tbe white ensign came down from the fort and at 5:43 o'clock the Govern ment fleet came up the bay, being a welcome sight to the anxious people on shore. The war is practically over and the cause of the insurgents is a lost one. There is much rejoicing in Rio Janerio at the culmination of the struggle which has continued so many months. The rebel forces have surrendered un conditionally, almost without firing a shot. Tbe officers of the insurgents' fleet have taken refuge ou board French and Portuguese war ships. One French ves sel has put to sea with many of the rebel officers on board. It is said that Admiral Da Gains is on board the British war ship Sinus. The Well Borers Depart. Messrs. F. A. & T. J. Boyer, well borers of Fostorio, Ohio, who hare been in tbe city since but summer and have during the time put down the wells for the New Berne water works and others left on the steamer Neuse for their home. Tbe apparatus which they usen, (a car load.) was shipped over the W. N. & N. R. R., its destination being Montpeller, Ind., where tbey will in a few weeks go to pat down oil .wells. .'

One ' day last week Congressman Branch introduced a bill In the National Legislature for e surrey of the waters 6 Eastern, N.JC, particularly from Hat terns to Point Lookout, In this connec tion the following circular being seu( out by the United States Engineer looks as though something will probably be done.

FOREST PBESEBYATIOX, Thetirewiaf Mcsrelty ef Timber Calls for leasarea te Sscers Ag-alast Its Exkaattloa Timber has already become scarce in some of tbe older snd more thickly Settled portions of this country, and at the rate it is being cut and shipped to the great centers of population it is only a question of a short time when it will be scarce in regions where it is now plentiful. This being so, measures to prevent reckless timber destruction and to work np measures that will give hopes rf sup plies in future become of importance. The subject is evoking more interest a time psases snd its ravages are more plainly seen. One of the largest gatherings of men Interested iu the accomplishment of this object has just been held at Albany. Brad street says of it. "The meeting was a joint convention ot the American and the New York State Forest v Associations, which wai uarti- cipated in by representatives of the var ious local forestry associations of the State, and of the forestry associations of the Eastern States and Pennsylvania. The personnel of tbe convention was notable, and the discussions interesting. The promoters of forest preservation arc doing fruitful work in continuing their appeal to a slowly but steadily widening circle of thougnuul citizens. and the results of their work will show as time goes on. For the present and for some time to come their chief work must be the difficult task of impressing the public with the importance ot forest preservation, and for this purpose gather ings sucli as tnat just held at Albany constitute perhaps the most nvuiUble mexns.' THE FOUSTAIS OF YOUTH. Two strangers arrived in the edge of the town. It was just as the sun was going down; One from the East anil one from the West, They weie wandering about on a fruitless quest, In search of the Fountain of Youth ! They had read of a place in some sunny clime, Where the people gavo never a thought to time; Tbey spent all their days in a Lotus-like dream, And floated along a it were, with the stream And this they beliAve 1 ts the truth ! They had read that the sky in this Ian 1 wns so blue The flowerj so fragraut and brilliant in hue, The air was so soft and the sun shone so bright, And visions of hearty e'er greeted the sight, And all had the fairness of youth ! The caue of this beauty and fair jess they said, Was a soft, flowing fountain, whose waters were spread In streams pure and clear, whose life-giv ing balm, Was ever restoring youth as a charm And this they believed was the truth ! They had travelled they said from the land of tbe snow Where cold reigns supreme and no flow ers can grow Where light leaves the earth and dark ness does reign, For six months ol time, till the sun comes again And tbey had left this chill region for sooth, Because they had heard of a man who had made His fortune by stric'.ly following the trade Of buying and selling nil dry goods and notions That ever are needed as man's earthly portion, And this they believed was the truth I Tbey had beard that this man could be found injour city Who was so smart in his trade and bis talk was so witty That at home and abroad, he was popu lar alike, And the name of this man they said was Big Ike. He had bathed in this fountain of youth I For though he had lived a good many years, It you judge from his (looks he need have no fears That age would e'er take and claim as its own, This handsome Big Ike who had won T such renown And this they believed wss tbe truth 1 So new they are seeking this Big Ike to find. And get him to tell how he'd left age behind I And what was the secret of his great sue And tbe load te Dame Fortune they'd make him confess When once tbey had found him forsooth! They had beard of his store, they bad heard of bis trade, They bad beard of the wonderful sales be had made I They had beard tbat in riches he'd soon be alike A Gould or an Astor I this noted Big Ike And this they believed was the truth.
