II ussian Justice.

Last december, IN Ofhcer IN the
elegant uniform Of the Chevalier
Guards. galloped aleng one Of the most
crowded and fashionable streets in Pc
tersburg. Passing magasin de modes,
be saw a charming young girl enter.
He followed her, and was struck by
her cheerful but modest grace, and the
freshness and tenderness which dlstin-
guished her. On her retiring, he
learnt that she was the daughter Of
poor chinwwich; (civilian), that the
shop-people worked for her at low
rate, from admiration Of her youth and
character, and that she would return
at six. us...at
The officer, with two Of his friends,
INDUCED IN a sumptuous dinner, in
flaming his passions with costly cham
payne. But exactly at six, a large and
gorgeous troiks,a double-seatcd sledge,
stopped near the magasin, harnessed
with three splendid horses. The poor
Olga advanced, was instantly half
stitled in fur cloak, lifted into the
troiks, carried of to Czarskos Zelo,
where = convenient and lonely house
Of entertainment awaited them, and
was there brutally ravished, after in
dignantly rejecting every kind Of bride.
But her resistance was so violent that
she disfgured the faces of her assail-
ants.
On her return, the father appealed
to the hated police, but in vain. The
police-master assured him that the
criminals could not be identified. On
this, her brother, an officer in q coun-
try regiment was written to. He was
interchangeable in his inquiries, discover
ing that three officers had suddenly
announced themselves sick, to hide the
scars in their faces, wrote petition to
the Emperor, and succeeded in awak-
ing his sympathy. The police. master
was summoned, and the Car charged
him instantly to procure q true report
of what had passed. This was done.
The criminal was Prince Galitzen.
But mark. the punish nent: The
Gar instantly compelled him to marry
the sufferer. endowed her on the spot
with half his worldly goods, making
her at once very wealthy, and then
immediately issued 4 ukase Of divorce,
leaving her entirely free. All the
three officers were transported to .
county regiment, deep In the heart Of
RusAia. and we're refused any rise in
military rank. -.
/ Never ives poet'cal Justice more
rapid and more complete. The SEN
tence does honor to the Emperor, aud
almost makes us long, in certain cases,
for a emaiPetsat dsspot. But thia il.
not the only instance in which Alex
ander II. has given proofs Of = good
heart and great vigor.
F. The circumstance has excited an i'm
mense sensation in the Russian capital.
and will doubtless have good results.
