The Russign naval officers now ct New York

the gunboat-builder WAS prominent IN the pro-

Christian virtues Giled not only bis " land,
but the whole world, with his fana.'' This was
enthusiastically received, and the RassiAH Ad-
miral LisovHki responded in broken, but easily
Ineligible English. He said;
GENTLEMEN: I regret very mReh that I can
not express as I would wish the feelings Of
gratitude which the speech Of our fried, Mr..
Esds, has produced On-eH Of Us. The praise

ANOTHER PATRIOTIC PEECH FROM ADMIRAL
EIsOvsKL
Tho Russian Admiral, again rising, said:
I think, gentlemen, that NJ. Goodwin has given
the true meaning Of the feeling which animstss
Russia at ths present time-I do nOt mean the
Russians from our squadron, bat the people gen.
orally in Russia. The Emperor, from the begin.
ming of his reign, sought only peace. He dimin-
isbed the army and navy, and stopped work on
The Notifications, and the people Of Russia gave
themselves to peaceful pursuits. Russia dill ro
think Of war. She desired h8 prosperity Of her
SELF and Of ali The wCfld-Erance and England
and every other nstian. But, I believe it to be
the duty Of every people to defend its integrity

There is 10 middle groaad. I hsps that the
present circumstances viii end peacefully; but
let what will happen, the same people who fell
so peaceful a short iime ago sTs now ready fol
any s~aeriicei snd, Just as we could see Moscow
burned, so shall we not shrink from burning st
Petersburg, if necessary. [ApPlsuse If for
eign nations are for peace with IS, we shall re
ceiva it On honorable terms, and bless our God
for that peace. CChsers.1
