ST. PETERSBURGH, AUGUST 2.

On every tour made by the Emperor into the pro-
vinces of the humor of his vast empire, we see some
abuses or irregularities corrected and remedied, which
the negligence of the Governors had tithe:to tolerated.
An Imderial Rescript has just now been published, ex-
, pressing hisMajesty'sdispleasure at the frequency of beg-
ging in the high roads, which his Majesty, on his return
from his late journey to Poland, had observed in some
Governments, particularly that rf Pskow, and giving
orders to suppress this practice. " His Imperial Ma-
jesty," says this order, " observed with extreme regret,
that the landowners, who are bound to Frovide for
the subsistence of their vassals, probably give them-
selves but little tronSle about it ; and that the local
authorities do not pay proper attention to it. It is
above all unpardonable) that not only cripples, but
men in perfect health, and able to work, and even chil-
dren, are allowed to haunt the roads as beggars, and
to ask alms of travellers. The Emperor therefore
strictly enjoins the civil Governor of Pskow, and other
civil authorities, in whose districts such abuses exist, I
punctually to execute the following commands:
" 1. To find out all crippled beggars and to deliver
those belonging to land-owners to the letter, to be taken
care of, as they are alone bound to provide for their
support. Those belonging to the Crown are to be sent'
to the Crown villages in like manner, to be provided for.
"2. The Police is to take care that no crippled beg-
gars, and least of all men in health, who pretend to be
such, leave their villages without permission, or beg in
the high roads or other places.
" S. The not providing for crippled beggars, the al-
lowing them to leave their villages, the wandering,
about of healthy persons, pretending to he cripples,
will render the local authorities, and especially the offi-
ceri of the country Police, liable to the r gour of
the law."
