Something About Russia.

1t is curious to observe-and yet it Is
natural sequence-how some
special event arouses, with sudden i'm
petuosity, all our slumbering interest in
a country or people that had previously
been to us only like other countries and
people. The advent of Prince Alexis
has invested Russian history with a
charm hitherto unknown, especially
among those to whom facts always seem
dry. There will never be more favor
able time than now to remind such that
the Russian empire includes an area of
7,S62,56 square miles. European
Russia has a population of 1925, 923 !;
Government of Caucasus, 4,157, 917 !;
Siberia, 4, $50, 500; Kingdom of Poland,
100000; Grand Duchy of Finland,
1, 7S9, 909-making total of 77,00S, 44S
inhabitants. Within the circuit of the
Russian empire are more than hun
bred tribes, speaking as many different
languages but most of these live on
the frontiers of The country, the Russians
proper inhabiting the interior. In
Russia the emperor's will is law, but the
administration of the empire is intrust-
ed to fou1 great councils. The COM
mercial intercourse of Russia is chiefly
with Prussia, Great Britain, and Frances
though Asia and China come in for a
share. The chief trading ports are st.
Petersburg and Riga, on the Baltic,
Archangle, on the White Sea Odessa,
on the Black Sea Taganrog, on the Sea
of Azof and Astrakhan and Baku, on
the Caspian Sea. Moscow is the prin-
cipal entrepot of the interior commerce
of the empire. The ear is now making
earnest efforts to promote the cause of
education among his people. Much
progress has been made within the last
quarter of a century still, among the
common people, education is very
deficient. The number of school-attend-
ing children is stated to be asone to 40.
In 1865 there were in Russia 32S poriodi-
cal papers, of which 143 were published
in st. Petersburg.

The New York Lunatic Asylum.

The asylum is a quadrangular build
ing of $50 feet, with two side wings in
the front of 100 feet each, and two rear
wings of 1870 feet each. 1t was opened
on the 10th of January, 1S43. It's costs
to New York State, covered by legis-
lative appropriations, including the pur-
chase of the site and farm of two hun
bred acres, and the reconstruction Of
that portion Of it which was destroyed
by fire in 1856. has been about 500, 900.
1t covers an area of three acres, and has
three stories above the basement. 1t
can accommodate comfortably six hun
bred patients, but they have at present
about six hundred and fifty, of whom
three hundred are women. Up to the
lst of January last, G,7O6 patients had
been admitted to the asylum since its
opening. OF these, 3,725 have recover
ed, and |, All were discharged improved,
showing an average of more than fifty
per cent. retreatment. The asylum is
equally divided for the men and wo-
men, the men occupying the right and
the women the left half. There are
three departments in both divisions
floor constituting department, each de-
partment being subdivided into four
wards. Every department has super
vising attendant, whose duty it is to see
that the general attendants neglect moth
ing, to look after the sick, and report
those who will not take food and medi-
cine, and who is generally responsible
for the preservation of neatness and
cleanliness and good order in his depart,
ment. Each ward has a chief attendant,
and as many assistants as the class of in
mates in the ward may render necessary,
in order to preserve entire control over
them. Each ward has its own dining
room, bathroom, closets, dormitories
for those who have suicidal tendency,
and appliances for restraint for those
who don't go to bed, who destroy their
clothing, or who endeavor to iniure
themselves or others. There is special
attendant for every dining-room, whose
sole duty consists in laying the tables,
washing the dishes, keeping the knives,
forks, spoons and all the etcetoras per-
fectly clean, and waiting on the patients
when at table.--.M Y. Paper.

Queen CarOIine's Body at HarWich.

The scene was such as I never can for
get or reflect upon without emotion.
The multitudes assembled from all parts
of the country were immense, and the
pier crowded with them, as the sea was
covered with boats of every size and
kind, and the colors of the vessels were
half-maSt high as on days Of mourning.
The contrasts Of bright sun with the
gloom on every face was striking, and
the guns firing at intervals made solemn
impression. One of the sights, however,
which struck me, was a Captain in the
Royal Navy, who sat on the pier, and
could not be persuaded to leave it he
was deeply affected, and wept exceed
ingly. Having been in her service, and
employed then and ever since in dis
pensing her charities, he could not tear
himself away; but being refused his
earnest request Of accompanying her re-
mains to Brunswick, he was resolved to
witness the embarkation. The crimson
coffin slowly descended from the pier,
and the barge that conveyed it bore the
flag of England, floating over "Caroline
of Brunswick, the murdered Queen Of
England" the inscription directed by
herself, and the justice of which was felt
by thousands who had Indignantly seen
the indecent haste of the funeral pro-
cession from London, and who felt their
share in kind of national remorso, as
well as commiseration, for all that had
passed Memories Of The Life aud Times
of Lord BrOu0h0m.

Curious Instinct Of the Bee.

Honoy:bees are governed by instinct
and not by art They never deviste from
the course they were created in. The
first comb they ever built was as perfect
as at the present day no art has i'm
proved the shape or size. One bee lays
all the eggs, while the Others raise and
protect them each bee does its part of
the labor in gathering in the stores and
nursing the young and / have noticed,
for some years, their mode of gathering
pollen or bee-bread. 1t is this:
When a bee goes out after food, it
alights on some kind Of flower, and gath
ers part Of its load then goes to ans
other flower of the sdme kind, and per-
haps third, to obtain load. Another
bee goes out, and if it alights on another
kind of flower, it keeps to that kind till
it gets load. But how is this known :?
You 90 to the hive ard watch them as
they come in; some have yellow pollen
on their legs others have light colors !;
others have dark but no bee has two
colors on his legs. If you see any, you
will see more than l have, for I never
did and [ have supposed that they
stored it in different cells for change of
food. The other day, in overhauling n
hive, l broke out new piece of comb,
and found the different colors in different
cells, which confirmed my belief for l
suppose they like change of food as
well as humans.
Another curiosity is their coming out
and alighting before going off from
among the hundreds L have hived, |
never had one swarm leave direct from
the hive.
Another curious thing is their rearing
the males and nursing them so tenderly,
and after they become useless they de-
stroy them. But instinct has directed
them to do it. Another curious thing is
that, when they get to be too numerous,
the mother bee should call out part of
her brood to 60 with her, and leave the
Others to take care of the young. Why
not call them all out to go with her I?
Because instinct has ordered it other
wise. Certain ones 60 out with her,
while others are coming in with stores
for future use. A certain part of them
don't seem to have any inclination to fol-
low the mother bee, nor do they mourn
the loss, for another is provided.
How wisely the Creator has arranged
every part and movement |! 1t is curl
Gus, too, how the eggs of the drone cells
are all drones, and those in the worker
cells are all workers. We would sup
pose they would get mixed up like hens
eggs. Again, when they want queen,
why not make a mistake sometimes, and
take drone egg And also, by feeding
a certain kind of food, make queen in
stead of worker? Again, the queen be-
fore she is Matched is head downward,
which would seem to be unnatural ; but
the All-wise has made every part perfect,

Facts and Fancies.

Sashes on street dresses are once mere
becoming fashionable.
1t is very bad taste for a man to wear
much jewelry and rings lockets, chains
and trinkets cause him to be called fop
OF dandy.
Young ladies wear the likeness of their
best friends and admirers in the inside
of their watch, where they must assured
ly look al it at least once day.
At wedding which took place in New
York recently, the bride was followed to
the altar by twelve little girls, members
of her class in Sabbath-school.
A little girl in Ithaca, just before she
died, exclaimed "Papa, take hold Of
my hand and help me across" Her
father had died two months before.
A heather Chinee asked a California
lady at Sunday school: "Why do-ee
Christian only talk-ee about JESUS on
Sundays and notice one time-ee on other
days ?"
The City Council of Little Rock,
which is composed of eight members,
recently ballotted three hundred times
before they elected their chairman. 1t
took them all one day and evening.
James Russell Lowell referring to our
purchase of Alaska, said that our rela-
tons with Russia are now Of the most
cordial and intimate kind, for the EN-
peror has made us the keeper of his seals.
1t is q curious fact about certain class
of beggars that they generally pull the
door bell hard enough to break it, and
yet when you go to the door they barely
have strength enough to speak in a
whisper.
A discriminating philanthropist has
donated $45 to the Boston Fair for Dumb
Animals, which she wishes to have dis
bursed as follows $50 for kindness to
horses, S15 for kindness to oxen and
cows and $40 for less cats to destroy
birds.
A gentleman was seen a few days after
Thanksgiving walking quietly down Main
ST., Buffalo, with a small placard on his
back inscribed, "Choice Poultry Inside. "
He says he will be very careful how he
leans against anything near provision
store after this.
