A. M. ZAv1ER MARUN has just published book
Of travels in Paris, entitled "From East to West,
which includes sundry excursions into Siberia.
This dreary land Of exile is not altogether barren
OF enjoyment since the merchants and public
functionaries live there in style Of real luxury.
The only complaint that an English traveller (AT-
K1NsoN) had to make against Siberia was that he
was obliged there to drink too much champagne
The great passion Of the people seems to be for
gaming, an amusement into which the women en-
ter with as much and more zest than the men. NJ.
MARuN says that he knew one lady, the mother of
eleven children, who occupied herself hardly with
anything else. All daylong tho cards we're stand
ing ready in her drawing-room, prepared FOR any
morning visitor. In the afternoon she sailed
forth in search OF gaming adventures at the houses
of her friends. Returned home to dinner at six
in the evening, and after short siesta the excite
ment was always renewed, either at home or
abroad Hearing one day of the arrival of skill
tul card player, sho Immediately invited him to
her house, and challenged him to o conflict. AT
first she won, but afterwards was terribly de-
feated. She begged her opponent to wait for one
day, until her quarterly income arrived, when she
would obtain her revenge. As soon as the money
was in her possession she staked the entire sum,
and lost it, The people who are not functionaries,
the Keighrses or nomads Of the steppes, live in
sufficiently primitive manner. At their gregarious
meals whole sheep are cooked and divided, and
the pieces passed from hand to hand along two
ranks of men, From the men the repast is handed
to the children and, last of all, to the women, who
finally throw the bones to the dogs, though often
they are obliged to dispute with the brutes for the
remnants Of their scanty fare Gallant people,

The BRITISH MEDICAL JOURNAL says: M. BRocA
has presented to the Academy most remarkable
anatomical preparation. 1t is skull found in the
tomb of the Incas, four miles from the city OF
Cuzco. M. BRocA believes that the skull belonged
to an individual who underwent at the same time
fracture and denudaton of the frontal bone.
The curious part of it is that the bone shows
traces of having undergone tho operation OF trc-
phining. circular white spot is visible, which
shows necrosis of portion of the bone; and all
around it the rariied tissue has evidently been
the seat Of an osteitis, the commencement OF oim-
NATIVE action. NJ NELAToN has examined the
preparation, and calculates that the patient sur
vived the operation about fifteen days. The
opening is of lozenge shape, and about twelve
milimetres in diameter. NJ BRocA thinks that
| the operation was performed with gouge."
