Russian Hotels.

In place of hotels, a system of acconmods-
tion has been established in these cities for
travellers who remain for months or longer
An agreement is made for board and lodging
at a stipulated price; they receive one or two
furnished rooms, tea, good dinner, at the
table dhote, and tea in the evening" and each
pays for lodging, fire, candles, food, drink,
and attendance. twenty FIVE, forty, or fifty sill
yer roubles ga. &c SIS or fs) month. Inns
of this kind now exist in all the government
towns, some of them kept by Germans, and
these for the most part tolerably good In

present mixture of the carayansary and
Asiatic eating house. 0a arriving and stop
ping before one of these houses, no one comes
to receive you,-the landlord you seldom get
a sight of You 90 into the house, aud search
story, and there you find q kind Of waiter,
whom you ask for lodging. He shows you the
rooms, in general badly furnished and without
beds instead of which O leathern sofa serves
for place on which you can spread out your
own bed.
The traveller has always to bargain, and Of
fer half what is demanded and when this is
concluded he enters into possession. At the
bar different kinds Of drink (wine, brandy,
DC. } and cold meats are sold; next TO this are
several rooms, the so-called restaurant, in
which dinner is served a la carte III you ask
what is to be had, outlets and beefsteaks are
always named (since 1915 these two words
have penetrated even into the heart of Asia y
they are, however, commonly of very bad
quality, and very ill cooked On the other
hand, if you ask for genuine Russian dishes,
the sA.eht cabbage soup with meat in it, or
the ptyoa Ia kind Of pie with fish or mest,)
you find these palatable and wholesome. The
white bread is bad, the black bread good.
Good tea may also be procured everywhere in
tumblers, generally with slice Of lemon in
it, and without milk. The genuine pious Rus.
sian drinks il ordinarily with honey, at least
on fast-days, because the sugar is refined with
ox's blood. 1t is only, have been told, when
re sugar has come from one particular manu-
factory, where this process is not used, that
an orthodox Russian will eat it on fast-days.
1t is q curious sight to see, in the eating
houses, the merchants sitting motionless in
rows upon the benches ranged along the walls,
genuine bearded Russians, in blue kaltans,
never moving except to put the glass Of tea to
their mouth, or sit it down. Thus they sit in
summer days four to six hours at time, with
out stirring n limb or speaking a word, swsl-
lowing one glass Of tea after the other (they
will drink twenty-four in succession,) the per-
| spiration streaming down their faces baron

Gov JoHy BILL was so great favorite in
South Carolina that parents frequently named
their children after him. There wa then in
Charleston a tailor named Freq, who infu-
enced by s,me favor or patronage received
from JoSn w alters Gibbs, asked him 70 be the
nodfather of his son, 70 be named John, after
bis nroposed godfather. Mr.. Gibbs promptly
assentes, and the day was appointed for the
ceremony. When the parties met, and were
going together up to the font, Mr.. Gibbs asked
permission to give the child an intermediate
name after their worthy governor, Bull. Per.
mission was of course granted, and the child
was baptized John Bull; the ceremony was
over and the parties separated in great good
humor. But when the whole name was pro-
nounced, and the child called John Bun frcs,
the parents were dismsyed; the citizens joined
in the laugh, and the Frog family ler IN
