rich landlords and sulky pumpkins could long live
in harmony together. Then, again, Russia Is men-
aced by Prussia. Her Baltic provinces, not less
than her Polish provinces. are standing danger
to her; and her German subjects, who have doubt
less much to complain Of already look towards
Prussia for protection whenever Russia comes
into hostile contact with Prussia she will be
beaten back with loss of territory and the struggle
between these two Powers is inevitable. 1t will
probably take place within these next ten or q
dozen years, and then Russia will be crippled for
a century. The Germans will take Riga and the
richest of her commercial towns in the Baltic, and
the Poles will probably profit by her weakness to
seize their ancient possessions down to the Black
Sea- In fight with Prussia Russia would be ut.
terly impotent, and with Prussia she must fight
sooner or later. Yet any one who has resided In
Russia will see at a glance how helpless she will
be. Her sovereign, to begin WITH Is O German,

when he has been forced into hostities he will be
sold and betrayed on all hands. The richest

The reason why the Germans have come already
to govern Russia, to all practical intents and pur-
poses is plain and lies upon the surface II is &C.

accustomed to say that "a Russian will only serve
as long as he is wanted, but that o German will
serve as long as he can" As soon as one Of

Alas! Hartsook found no spiritual
edification there, and he was In no
mood to be amused. Aud SO, while
the sermon drew on through two
dreary hours, he forgot the preachsr
in noticing bright green lizard
which, having taken up Its winter
quarters behind the tin candlestick
that hung just back Of the preachers
head, had been deceived by the genial
warmth coming from the great box
stove, and now ran out two or three
feet from his shelter, looking down
upon the red-nosed preacher in most
confidential aud amusing manner.
Sometimes he would retreat behind
the cand:est;cs, which WAS not twelve
inches from tho preachers head, and
then run out again. At each reap
pearance Betsey Short would stuff her
handkerchief into her mouth and
shake In q most distressing way.
Shocky wondered what the lizard was
winking at the preacher about. And
Miss Martha that it reminded her of q
lizard that she saw Mt the East, the
time she was to Bosting, In q jar oi
alcohol in the National History
Rooms.
The Squire was not disappointed IN
his anticipation that Mr.. Bosaw would
attack his denomination with some
fury. In fact, the old preacher outdid
himself In his violent indignation al

As they came out of the door Ralph

"Oh! yes" said the Squire. "DidR

But when the long, long hours wer.

OF the packing outlook from . st.

that city, Of the 4th, says; ut IL not
. very assuring one at the present mo-
ment. Hogs are now held 1T . rate
which involves loss Of about dollar
per head to the packer at the present
pricce Of prouct. There seems to be
no export demand for provisions, and
the supply is far beyond the wants Of
home consumers. The price Of hogs
has been held up, probably, to the
present moment by the demand for
product to I'LL November and Decem-
Der sales. A good many Of those In
this city who purchased for the above
delivery are settling instead OF &C.
cepting the product. Others are re-
selling at loss, and but few have
confidence In present prices. Uniess
hogs can be forced down or product
up, there will either be poor show
for profit this year or very light
business done In packing"
