CHOLERA IN RUSSIA.
Appalling Mortal!tY-EiGhty Thous-
and DeatAs in n Yca-.

The correspondent OF the EastcTH Bud
get at St. Petersburg says, writing oa toe
10Th alt: "The rayages produced by the
cholera ard she smallpox in all parts of
Russia have - en rise to numerous COM
laints of defective sanitary arrangements
iu the Empire. 1t appears from Official
statistics that the number Of persons who
died from cholera alone III Russia during
the past year was upward Of $4,000, and
II is year we are tareaiened with an epI-
iemc Of smallpox As we'll. II is a!eged
; thu. the chief cause o. the spr ad Of these
terrible diseases is the negligence Of the
authorities. There are, IL is true, So
called sanitary commissions in al the ca! i
tails Of the provincial districts, co.nposed Of
the head5 of the government: bot, though
they meet occasionally to discuss saaitsry
matters no one has ever heard OF these
DISCUSSIONS having produced any 'i-.fI
tory result. These gentlemen think they
haze done their duty when they have COL

aimiDisters the following cutting, but
wel-merited rebuke to the Times, for the
uncharitabie spiris 10 which it announced
tie death of Horace Greeley:
Lord Bacon concludes one of those re.
markable essays by which, rather than by
the New Urgauon or by nny of the literary
CT public labors nf his life, his fame has
been transmitted TO suhse9 9ent generations
with these words: Death has this also,
that it openeth the gate TO good fame aud
extinguisheth envy The Tunes in it's
remarks upon Mr.. Greeiey's death, does
rot falier n exhibiting itself an exception

SCHOOLS FOR Sco1DINa.-Some evi- dence given before the Poor Law Com mittee in the earlier part of the present century shows that the street language was in former days taught as an art. ''About two years ago." says the witness ssthere was an old woman who kept a night school, not for the purpose of in structing children, but for the sole pur- pose of teaching them the street language that is, to scold: this was for females particularly. One girl according to this curious declaration to me, would act the part of Mother Barlow and the ether Mother Cummins; these were the ficti- tious names they gave. The old woman instructed the children in all the maneu- vres of scolding and clapping their hands at each other, and making use of the infamous expressions they use. This led them into the most disgraceful scenes. When these children met, if one entered into the department of the other, the next day they were prepared to defend their stations and to excite a mob"

PooR CURATEs. Rev. Robert Collyer relates the following anecdote in illustra- tion of the poverty and struggles often curates of London: ''I had, in the sum- the church of England, who was then rector of church which gave him a very fair living; but before this he had been curate in London with @ very large family, as ministers generally have, and an income of less than hundred pounds year-not more than eighty if my memory serves me. It was desperate work, he said, to make ends meet-so desperate that there came time when there was not penny or crust left in the house or pint of milk for the bairns. Then he said, T sat down to think what I should do; and when I made up my mind about the course I must take, I went up to my wife las noble and true woman as ever this world heard of) and said, My dear, we have done our very best and this is the end, Now, I will tell you what we must do. We are citizens of London, have paid our rates and taxes right along, and are entitled to all the help there is. We will go te the poorhouse Tomorrow morning and ask them to take US in. We have per feet right to go there, and we will go. 2 She said, sThat is right" and began at once to get ready for the poorhouse, but that day got letter from some one, inclosing five pounds. There was no signature; don't know to this day who sent it, but that five pounds saved us from taking that step, and tided us over to quarter day."
