RussiA'S FINANCES.

Protiting by the lessons OF experience,
Russia has successfully put in operation
a plan which many Wanted states
mem have always denounced as chim>
erical. Instead OF appealing to the
Rothschilds or other foreign capitalists
for funds to carry on his war preparat-
ions. the Gar has followed the example
of France and depends upon the patriot
ism of his own people. One day it was
announced that subscriptions would be
received for public loan OF sevensy'hve
million dollars. Six days thereafter it
was found thai the subscriptions in two
cities alone exceeded the whole sum
called for, and the price had advanced
beyond par! Another telegram from st.
Petersburg says: 1.-The landowners OF
South Russia have offered the Car i've
million roubles" (nearly tour million
dollars.) Where the cultivators own
the soil they till, and are not stripped
naked by an infamous landlord system,
they can afford to make such splenald
Gifts to their government. But just
imagine the Irish people raising tour
million>dollar purse to help along some
British military enterprise!

ia evident that circumstances are some
times too strong for the Imperial resolu-
