REMARKS ON RUSSIAN CREDIT.-The manu-
features of Russia, says Punch, are few, but
her fabrications are innumerable. ave shall
stand no chance with the Russians if they
shoot as well with the Mihie rifle as they do
with the long bow. Osten-Sacken's guns
would be all Paixhan's if his ball were CON-
mensurate with his bounce.-The report of a
Russian cannonade is something Incredible.
1t is curious paradox that even when
Nicholas and his officers are advancing, they
are lying still.-Although pugilism is not a
mode of warfare practised by the Russians,
they fight in great measure by fbbing.-
Even If we reduce the Gar to terms, it will
be necessary to understand all his terms in
the opposite sense.-Noun. Substantive, in
the Russian language, is word which stands
for thing that is not"

rY- In noticing the nominations made by
the President, of Gen. w. o. Butler, Of Ken
lucky, as Governor of Nebraska, and A. II.
Reeder, of Pennsylvania, as Governor of Kan
sas, the Union says, that as "it was distinctly
announced on the face of the bill giving ter
ritorial governments to Kansas and Nebraska
that il was not the intention of Congress to
legislate slavery into or out Of the territories,
in strict accordance with the spirit of the law,
the President has divided tho appointments
between the North and the South, giving to
Kansas, where the chances of introducing
slavery are greatest, n Northern governor, and
to Nebraska, a Southern governor"

CURE FOR QUINsY Affections of the throat
are so common at this season, that we cut
from an exchange the following, which is
highly spoken of f:-"Put into buttered spi-
der lump Of pure beeswax, about the size
of a walnut and melt it; then lay upon the
beeswax piece of cotton rag, large enough
to cover externally the part affected; fry down
till the rag absorbs the beeswax and becomes
brown or slightly scorched; sprinkle upon the
waxed side of the rag about a heaped tea
spoonful of Scotch snuff, and apply the rag
thus prepared to the affected part rs warm as
the patient can bear. Heat the rag frequent
ly, and continue the application until recove-
ry is experienced.

kossUTH ON RUssM.-Kossuth' speech at
a recent meeting in Sheffield is mentioned to
have been uncommonly able. The main points
which he advanced were, that it was the par
titon of Poland by which Russia became
dangerous to the world, and which brought
her down to the Danubian principalties, and
thence to Hungary; and that the oppression
of Hungary by Russian interference has been
the stepping-stone to the present ambitious
daring of the Gar In relation to Poland,
Kossuth in this but re-stated what the most
distinguished Russian diplomatists haveav
ed. The partition of Poland was the chief
event of Russia's progress and of her modern
history; and a reconstruction of Poland was
the policy that Napoleon had at heart as the
most formidable barrier Europe could raise
against Russian ambition. Nothing like this
can take place if Austria sides with the west
ern powers.

DOMESTIC CRUELTy.-A case ofaggravated
inhumanity was not long since brought be-
fore the magistrate at London. 1t appears
that in Holly street, Dalston, there lives
sta,ioner, James Shackell by name, who
formed the design of starving his wife and
five children to death. After providing him
self with large quantity of spirits, he de-
stroyed all the food in the house, and locked
up his family. For three days they had
nothing but dry bread, and when his wife was
trying to escape from the house, he knocked
her down. He then locked her and the chill
dren in one Of the inner rooms, and there
kept them until the agonizing cries of her
children for food induced her to rlke an
effort to break open the door; but her brutal
husband, who had been drinking at intervals,
forced her away, savagely striking her in the
face. She then made her way to the window
and dashed her hand through pane of glass;
a circumstance wktsSz with her cries, attract
ed the attention of passers by, who forcibly
entered the place, and the man was given
into custody. He was remandcd for week,
that the magistrate might take time TO con.
slider his judgment.

A GREAT DAY IN RALErGu.-Our county
capital must have presented ar animated ap-
Ipearanco yesterday. There were two regular
and largely attended meetings held therc-an
agricultural and temperance one, besides
numbers of people went there, merely from
curiosity to "seo the gathering" who took no
part in any of the proceedings. There was
no lack Of sport either, as we understand a
member of the city press distinguished him
self by vanquishpg the champion marble
player of Raleigh in game of "knucks."-

cR" Georgia" which is known ns tho En-
pre State of the South, and which is certain
ly one of the most intelligent and thrifty of
the Southern States, has within its borders
forty-one thousand Of free white grown per-
sons who can neither read nor write! There
were in 1910 thirty thousand adults who
could neither read nor write, and the number
has increased to al 900 since that time. Tho
increase of ignorance goes beyond the in
crease of popuiation---for while the latter has
been under 28 per cent, the former has ex-
ceeded "a per cent. Should the evi grow in
like ratio with the few years past, there
will be in forty-six years hence, 10000
grown up white persons unable to read or
write

LOVE AFFAIR AND FATAL END.-On the
18th, a Miss Fuller, in Darbyville, Picaway
county, KY, drowned herself in the creek, in
few minutes after reading note from her
lover, that he did not intend marrying her,
and was about leaving the village. A cor
respondent says, after reading the letter she
exclaimed any God, what will become OF
mel" She crossed the street, passed through
house without noticing the family, rushed
up stairs, where the false one was at work,
and caught him round the neck-kissed him
said she had come to bid him a long fare
well. She then ran across field, and plung-
ed into water fifteen feet deep. A man plow-
ing near by, supposing something was wrong
ran after her, but only reached in time to see
the bubble where she had sunk.

FREAK OF LIcHTMSG.-Mr. Amasa Smith
was lighting the gas in his ssaloon in Lowell
during Mondays thunderstorm, when the
lightning struck the building, passed down
the gas pipe, entered his right hand, and
made its exit out Of his left one, which held
burning match, exploded when it came in
contact with the flame, and knocked him
down but did no serious injury.
