A Russian Funeral.

The burial of the dead is picturesque
and interesting ceremony in Moscow. A
body of priests, dressed in black robes aud
wearing long boards, take the lead ia the
funeral cortege, bearing in their hands
shrines and burning tspers. The hearse
follows. drawn by four horses. Black
plumes wave from the heads of the horses,
and flowing black drapery covers their bod
les and legs. Even their heads are draped
in black, nothing being being perceptible
but their eyes. The coffin lies exposed on
the top of the hearse, and is also similarly
draped. The combination of sombre plu-
mage and drapery has singularly mourn
full appearance. .
Priests stand on steps attached to the
hearse, holding images of the Saviour over
the coffin; others follow in the rear, com
forting the friends and relations of the de-
ceased. A wild, monotonous chant is sung
from time to time by the chief mourners, as
the procession moves toward the burial
ground. The people cease their occupations
in the streets through which the funeral
passes, uncover their heads, and bowiug
down before the images borne by the priests
utter prayers for the repose of the dead
The rich and poor of both sexes stand up
on the sidewalks aud offer up their hum
BILE petitions. The deep-tongued bells Of
the Kremin ring out their solemn peals,
and the wild and mournful chant of the
priest mingles with the grand knell of death
that sweeps through the air. All is pro-
foundly impressive. The procession of
priests with their burning tapers; the dra-
perry of black on the horses; the coffin with
its dead; the weeping mourners; the sepul
chral chant; the sudden cessation of all the
bust ness Of life, and rapt attention of the
multitude; the deep, grand death knell of
the bells; the glitter of domes and cupalos
on every side; the green-roofed sea of
houses; the winding streets, and the cos
TUNES Of fthe people--form a spectacle won
derfully wild. strange aud mournful. In
everything that comes within the sweep of
the eye there is a mixed aspect of Tartaric
barbarism and European civilization. Yet
even the stranger from faI distant cline.

mutual good will in accomplishing the tash
before them and that the Union cannot be
held together when the "spiTit of Gmity" Ii
wholly abandoned and each party madlJ
rushes to war, the one for conquest, the
other for final separation, while the real
friend to the Union can but see and deplore
that either alternative will be disasterous,
the one lessening the advantages of mutual
protection and commerce, the other sapping
the very foundation of freedom by conquest.
The peaceful can but deeply regret the
phrenzy of our leading politicians and
preachers of churches, especially the meth
odists, and those who follow in their wake,
with the constant cry "crush the rebellion
crush this wicked rebellion" until we are
taught without the liberty of discussion th at
Southerners have no rights not even the
right to live. They certainly have the
right to be heard in the constituted courts
of justice, both in the capacity of States and
individuals before the existence the Su-
preme ruler of the universe gave them, is
forfeited and taken from them, unless our
form of government is wholly subverted.
What different feature would this con-
troversy have ex hibited, had the parties ap-
peared before the Supreme Federal Court,
each by the best law talent the North and
South could command, and after ARA ying
all facts connected with this controversy
from its earliest inception, applied the law
to the case, and let an impartial judiciary
decide it under the constitution as it must
be done in case of conquest and restoration
of constitutional law; for by the laws of this
land no party can profit by its own wrong
doing, although these wrongs may be en-
forced for time, yet never permanently

the subversion of its laws. PAX.

A FAITHful DoG.-A tanner had a large
mastiff to guard his premises from thieves:
The foreman of the yard regularly fed the
dog, and the two were on the best terms
The owner suspected the foreman of dis
honesty. and discharged him. In this he
was probably not mistaken, for few weeks
after the man determined to steal a load Of
hides during the night. He knew the
premises perfectly. and felt sure his old
friend the dog, would offer no resistance
He accordingly drove cart near the fence,
climbed over, and threw the hides one BY
one out of the enclosure. The dog appesr-
ed pleased to see him, and did not offer to
prevent his operations. When the man was
ready to go, instead of unbolting the gatS
aud plssing out. he started to go as be had
entered. climbing the fence. so as to leavS
no clue by which he might be detected -:
This UNUSUAL proceeding aroused the dog's
suspicious if such term may be applied to
an animals ideas. He at once sprsng upon
the thief, seized him by the leg, and held
him untiathe owner came to his assistance
and secured the culprit. -a

A DUEL ON HORSEBACK.

The author Of Notes from the South"
Colonel Eslvan, a Rebel officer, gives the
following graphic account Of an episode in
oue OF the tights that took place during Nc
ClelIan's operations on the Peninsula:
Meantime an episooe in the fight occurred
i'll the shape of duel between one OF the
eneiny's dragons and one OF our Texans, on
a small field close by. The dragoon evident
ly scorned to join in the fight of his com
rades, and displayed such skill in the man
agement OF his horse and the use of his
sword that 1t Was quite pleasure to watch
hln.
In vain did the Texan make lunge after
lunge, and try all sorts Of expelients to
overcome his antagonist. The dragcon sat
as firm as a rock in his saddle, welding his
sword lihe a brand of lightning BY the
manner in which he handled his horse and
weapon, | judged at glance that he was a
German trooper, and could not help watch
ing the exciting contest with great interest.
The Texan still continued TO wheel round his
opponent on his feet barb, eagerly seeking
to deal home thrust, whilst the dragoon,
with cool, steady eye, followed all the
movements of his impetuous antagonist. AT
last they closed in earnest. a blow, a parry
and thrus, followed close on each other.
The Texan had Slashed the dragson' S
shoulder so that the blood began to flow,
which aroused cheer from the Texans lock
ing on, but Mt the same moment the former
received a back stroke which cut through the
sleeve and flesh Of his left arm. The Texan
now backed his horse. like lightning, and his
fellow troopers rushed forward to look at his
wound; but without paying any heed to his
hurt, he again dashed at his opponent and
made lunge at his breast The dragoon
parried it with great dexterity, and at the
same time let fly a "quarte" which caused a
slashing wound in the Texans back. The
latter spurred on his horse to little distance
and before | could take means to prevent the
cowar'lly act, deliberately took ont pistol
and shot the brave dragoon. who fell dead
from his saddle. The bullet had entered
just below the region Of the heart
Much g,ievcd at his fate, ordered grave
to he dug to receive the remains of the brave
German trooper. We buried him in his reg
imcntas, and his trusty sword or his breast
and his pistol by his side.
This sad &C, having been performed, sen
for the Texan, and after reprimanding hin
severely for his cowardly conduct, ordered
him to seek service in some other corps, tel
ling him that could not think Of allowing q
fellow OF his stamp 70 remain in my regiment
The Texan scowled at me with his wild eat
like eyes, and muttering a curse, mounted
his horse and rode away.
