Travelling in Russia.

In order to obtain permission to travel in this
pleasant Russian empire, | found it was neces-
sary to take no less than six walks--frst to the
treasurer, then to the police, then to the COM
mandant, then again to the treasurer and lastly,
once more to the police. In the paeroshne per
mit) that you receive, it must be exactly stated
how many miles you mean to travel, and the
postmaster must not allow you to 60 single
werst further. For every horse you must pay
half copex the werst, which seems ut first little
enough but when you consider that werst is
only half mile, and that you always travel with
three horses it amounts at last to considerable
tax. The post chaise for which you pay ten CO.
pax a station, is nothing more than short,
uncovered wooden car on four wheels and, in
stead Of a seat, hay is put in the bottom, and a
small box, on which the postillion Sits Ofcourse,
these machines jolt horribly land the bells, hung
to wooden arch over the neck of the middle
horse, they are harnessed three abreast keep
up q constant, abominabe jingling. These, with
the creaking of the car, and the screaming of the
driver to his horses, make so much noise, that
when as has sometimes happened, the traveller
has been flung out on the road by the violent
motion of the car, the driver has gone on and
never missed him till he arrived at the station.
In Russia, the moment an official parsonage OF
any sort makes his appearance, every one flies
at his bidding, and all vie with one another who
shall most humbly bow before him, for this is
the privileged caste; and though according to
law, those who are not travelling on official bust
ness have no rights beyond those of other travel
ers, they who should be the first to show example
of respect for the law pay not the slightest at
tention to it. They send servant perhaps to
mention that on this that day they will require
ten or twelve horses should anything induce
them to delay their Journeys dinner, hunting
party, or headache of the lady-they simply
put off the journey for day or two, and desire
the horses to be kept till they arc wanted and
in the mean time any private travellers at the
station must await their pleasure. Ii may easily
happen, therefore, with all these hndrances, that
though the Russian rate Of travelling is very
rapid when you do get into motion, you do not
on the whole, get faster than in a caravan
Many time, in the course of my journey through
Russia, have not been able to do more than
single stage in whole long day and every time
/ saw uniform, it threw me into fright lest
should not be able to get any horses
Waiting at the post station is, of course, ex-
tremely disagreeable Thereis room for you
to wait in and Cossack and his wife who are
supposed to wait upon you; but it is often hard
TO get for your money either civil treatment or
food-eggs, milk or whatever il may be that you
require. With all its dangers greatly prefer
travelling in Persia.

r1RAcuLuM AMoRIs.

AS late watched a summer Sabbath day
Trail down the west her robes of rose and gold
And silver-misted twilight calm and still,
Walk dewy footed on her silent way
Deepening the shadows of the wooded hill,
Darkening the greenneAs the meadow sward
unused upon tho tale SO sweetly told
BY the beloved of Jesus--how the Lord
Changed Cana water into wedding wine
And bethought me how this heart of mine
Was like vase with tasteess water filed,
Till thou drew and change most wondrous willed
Wrought with thy love miracle divine
Thy cheeks bright Aushings that SO surely tell
The inner courses of thy life's red fow
And the yet deeper and ntenser glow
That on thy parted lips warmly sleeps,
Like light on tremulous rose-leayes-softy fell,
And straightway crimsonod all the watery drops
The smile that in thy eye holds sovereign place,
And ever gracious bends the brows above
And sleeps thy lips in sweetness-then, oh love,
Like golden honey dropt into the vase
And not alonc to pleasure thy faint lips
In loves name wroughtest thou this work divine,
But whosoevcr comes, and thirsting, dips
His goblet in this Drumming vase Of thine
Tasteth tho sweetness and the JOY of wine.
