A strange story from Russia.

A letter from 81. Petersburg, in an
English paper, mentions an extranrdinary
which lately occurred in the town of Orel
in Russia. A great local land owner had
large sum (forty-three thousand silver
roubles) to receive through the police of
e ,e of that town On applying for the
amount he was told that the money could
not be handed over to him unless be pre-
sented the office with five thousand silver
roubles He refused, and immediately
reported the case to St. Petersburg. and
the money was paid over to him. But on
the evening Of the same day, as be was
quietly smoking in his study, loud ring
was heard at the bell.
The servant, on opening the door, was
instantly pinioned, aud four men, their
faces covered with black Grape. rushed
into the room. The landowner asked them
what they wanted they plainly told him
be must hand over his forty three thou
sand roubles. With the greatest coolness
he went over to his strong box, opened it
seiz cd revolver which was laid on lths
top shelf, and shot two of the robber,
dead, the other two Immediately taking L
their heela. He then sent for assistance
the police, &c, and on the Grape beins
| removed from the faces of the dead mel
they were recognized as the head Of tn
police and his secretary. The body o
the former has been removed to Nice 70
intermsnt.
