at a review OF his whole army, ordered
a Gen. SkobelelT to select the finest men
in the army 10 form into a body of I'm.
perial Guards. In the 6rst regiment
examined, the General came across a
stalwart young soldier, who far sur
passed his comrades in appearance. The
sol iier said that hiS name was KobeleA,
and that he came from a village in the
Province of Novgorod. The General,
upon hearing his reply 10 an inquiry
be had made, seemed greatly interested,
aud, being told that II was only tho
youth of KobeleG that had hindered
his advancement from the ranks, at once
gave orders that he should be made a
non commissioned officer That even.

to the officers OF the regiment 10 which
kobelef belonged, told all anecdolc.
He said that many years before, when
he was private soldier, he was on

While keeping guard, the Empress
