SerfdOm in Russia.

In 1861, after some years OF eau tious
preparation, Alexander IL. proclaimed
the emancipation of the serfs, and with
one blow the letters were stricken from
40, 900, 900 of human beings. OF this
number, little over 20, 900, 600 were at
tached to the estates OF private proprle-
tors, l, 467, 900 were domestic servants,
and the remainder belonged TO the state
demesnes, which cover about one-half
the area of Russia. The peasant serfs
were Immediately invested with the civil
rights before enjoyed by the free rural
classes, and the communes were allowed
to retain the lands which they already
occupied, paying for the use of them
certain yearly dues, with the liberty
| of purchasing them within thirty-nine
years. The domestic serfs were COM
PEELED to serve their masters for term
of two years after the emancipation, and
were thereafter free, but had no share in
the communal lands. The peasant serfs,
comprising, as has been said, fve-sixths
of the whole population, are still gov
emed by the communes but how much
longer these organizations are destined
to survive it is impossible to predict
! The condition of the serfs has not ma
| terally improved since the emanclpa-
ton. 1t could not be expected that
their advancement would be rapid. They
form colossal body for the Government
to provide for and bring up to point
where they will be able to make the lost
Of their opportunities. A few Of them
two or three perhaps-in commune can
read and write the remainder are litter
ate. They are no longer subject to the
rule of private master, they have no
more fear of the knout, or of Danish
ment to Siberia, or of enrolment in the
army at the caprice of brutal owner
but, on the other hand, they can no
longer turn for help aud protection to a
proprietor who is responsible for their
welfare and in a majority OF cases shows
himself humane in conduct toward them.

A Observation-Disclosures.

Everybody that travels has experienced
the annoyance of having his ears deaf
ened when on board a steamboat by the
roar of escaping steam. Sometimes ac-
cidents have occurred during the racket
of "blowing off " simply because the
Captain cannot make his orders heard,
and everything has to be done in dumb
show while the disturbance lasts. Hap
PLY an invention called the spiral ex-
haust-nozzle is destined to choke off the
noise. 1t operates by breaking the
waves of sound, the escaping steam
being surrounded with wire helix, and
obliged to pass between the wires. A
report adopted by the Committee on
Science and the Arts of the Franklin
Institute says I'm view of the annoy
ance, fright, and danger arising from the
roar of escaping steam, and of the COM
pleteness with which the nozzle destroys
this roar, We are of the opinion that Mr..
Shaw has done great service to the
community, and particularly to the
interests, in overcoming
an obnoxious and dangerous feature in
the use of steam and we recommend
the award to him of the Scott legacy
premium and medal for his spiral ex-

The Eamine i'm India.

There is no change for the better in
India. The famine has not abated, and
affairs everywhere are becoming critical.
The price of grain is advancing, most of
the Burmese rice-crop has been secured
for English consumption, and there is no
rain. The condition of the people on
the relief works is gradually deteriorat-
ing. In eight districts, where the annual
death-rate of the winter season is not
usually more than 20 per |, 900, it ranged
from 1878 to 1883 in December and from
626 to u.s. in January. Many of the
deaths are due to starvation, or diseases
engendered by starvation, but these are
debited to =" cholera" The best author
tiles estimate the total loss of life which
will follow from famine at ], 000, 900, and
think that the Madras census of 1881,
with its population of 10000, 600 souls,
will show, If not aretrograde a stationary
population. A fact is cited by the Lon
don Times correspondent which upsets
the assertion that periodical famines are
necessary to keep down the redundant
population of Hindostan. The remarks
on this head, the correspondent holds,
would be pertinent to the subject if the
famine had displayed itself in the most
thickly- populated districts of the coun-
try, but, as matter of fact the most
thickly-populated districts have been able
not only to grow food enough for their
own necessities, but to export to places
where there was scarcity. There is no
evidence of any value to show that the
population of India is beyond the capac-
ity of the land to support. Every pound
of grain consumed i'll the famine tract OF
the South during the present scarcity
has been supplied by India itself and,
while an enormous local failure of crops
over an area inhabited by 20, 900, 900 of
people has prevailed, India has still
been able to add largely to her exports
of wheat to Europe. York World.

An Old Stove.

In the Virginia State Capitol, at Rich
mond, is the historic stove of the world.
1t unquestionably deserves this designa-
ton, although it is best known as the
cold Stove," having been manufactured
in England by one Buzaglo, and sent
over TO Lord Botetourt, in ITO, rs a
present to the colony of Virginia. This
old stove was used in warming the House
of Burgesses in Williamsburg until 1873,
when the capital was removed from that
place to Richmond, and served the State
altogether, in heating its Legislative halls
for period of sixty years; after which it
was placed in the rotunda of the Capitol,
and warmed that portion of the building
for about forty years more, when it was
laid aside as one of the sacred relics of
Virginia. -Scribncr for July.

Mark Twain.

And this is how Samuel L. Clemens
obtained the name which he has made
famous. The explanation is given in a
letter to Mr.. John A. Mcpherson, of San
Francisco:
DEAR SIR: "Mark Twain" was the nom de
plume of one Capt. Isaiah Sellers, who used to
write river news over it for the New Orleans
Ptcdya,e. He died in 1868, and. as he could
no longer need that signature, laid violent
hands upon il without asking permission Of the
proprietors remains. That is the history of
the nom dc plume l bear. Yours truly,
SAMUEL l.. CLEMENS.

Riches and Reason.

The experience of the late Mr.. Johr
DAILY, of this city, who got riches bu
lost his reason and committed suicide
points moral for our time. The case
of DIR. Aver, the well-knowD millionaire,
who is i'll an asylum for the insane, fur.
nishes a commentary on the failure
which some men are making by their APP
petite for money. There are scores of
similar cases of insanity caused by too
intense application to business. Brains
are of more account than bank notes.
even in this world, truthfully says the
Christian at Work, and it is never wise
to risk ones head to accumulate prop
rety for other people to quarrel over
Scientific amer lean.

Ia an answer to an enquiry regarding the
authorship Of the play of Damon and Pythas,
in yesterdays Gazette, either by that condl,
ton of the mind which allows the hand to write
a word entirely different from that intended
for the writer was looking at the biographical
dictionary when he penned the answer-or else
by typographical error, the playwright was
stated to be of Queen Vctoria's, instead Of
Queen Elizabeth's reign. Richard Edwards
was born in Somersetshire, England, in 1923,
and died in 1866. He was one of the first Eog'
Iish dramatic writer's, and was also poet and
musician. Another authority. however. gives
the authorship to John Bauim, of ireland, who
became celebrated by series of novels under
the title of the O'Hara Tales. The Irish orator
Shiel revised the play.
