The following curious story, in illustration of the
Russian military rules, is translated from German
paper:
At the time the report Of the taking of Sebastopo
was current, a rich noblcman from the town OF -,
the frontier of Gallica, received letter announc-
ing the fall of Sebastopo and the burning Of Odessa
He had some friends with him at the same time, to
whom he communicated the contents, requesting OF
them, however, to mentonit. Unfortunately, his
wishes were dsregardsd, and in a few hours nothing
in all Warsaw was spoken of but the taking Of Sc
carried to Prince Paskiewitch, who Immediately sent
for the nobleman and asked him" Count, from
whence have you this news?' The nobleman hand
ell the prince the letter. "There is not word of
truth in all this!" said the Prince.
81 thought So" answered the Count, &C and l on
ly mentioned it to few confidential friends, with
request not to repeat il"
"The government has full confidence in YOU, as
you have repeatedly given proofs of your loyalty
said the Prince; " we are far from a wish to punish
you for this But desire that you should convince
yourself by pleasure trip to Odessa and Sebasopol,
that the report is totally false.''
GAS your Highness orders.''
eco to my secretary, and he will tell you Of my
further wishes"
The Count left and repaired to the secretary, who
handed him prepared passport. He had scarcely
arrived in his own house. when an aid-de-camp Ell.

horses were ready.
During the time the burning Of Odessa and the Ia
king of Sebastopol occupied all Europe, our unoru-
nate Count on his unwilling journey, behind four
fiery steeds, to convince himself Of the truth ofthe re-
port. At Odessa he was taken to the palace of the
Governor, who received him very kindly but imlne-
diaely ordered him to Sebastopol. Here also he was
politely received by Menschikoff, taken everywhere,
and then Immediately sent back to Warsaw, where,
as soon as he was out OF the carriage, he was con-
Quoted to the Prince, who accosted him with the re-
mark:-"Woll, Count, what do you now believed
Are Odessa and Sebastopo taken?''
ooh, your Highness," answered the Count, who
was halt dead with the fatigue OF his hurried jour-
ney, both towns still secure, that they
can never be taken.'
Go then, Count, invite your confidential friends

that you have just seen, that this day all War
saw may know it,
The Count had scarcely reached his house, when
the same aid-de-camp entered and handed him the
bill of the expenses of the journey. The unfortunate
Count had to pay seven thousand and several hum
