Democracy in Russia.

A correspondent of the London Times
has been In the Russian camp long
enough to discover that a vast problem
in human nature is working out in
mighty nation. He maintains that the
Russian people are to-day the most
purely democratic in Europe in their
tendencies and customs. There is the
form of an absolute despotism in the
Government, but this vast under-current
of democracy makes itself felt in the
very heart of this despotism, and really
controls its action. 1t is this subtle in
fuence which forced the Emperor into
this war, and it is the fear of this power
that prevents him from leaving the field
he has once entered until he can do SO
VIGOROUSLY. The evidences of this spirit
of democracy are plainly written in the
everyday life of the army, and those
who choose may read it as they go. The
old-style form of aristocracy still ex-
lists In the court circles of the army, but
there is vast majority where the officer
recognizes the private as an equal, man
forman, and the distinction between them
is regarded as an official one only. SEQ
belief, for instance, shakes hands with
the lowest subaltern in the same man
ner as with the Colonels of regiments.
These young Lieutenants show no con-
straint in his presence all is easy and
purely democratic, and vet every word
of command or expression of a desire
from the General is obeyed with an
alacrity and rapidity that cannot be sur
passed in the most despotc martinez
service on the globe. The private soldiers
are also easy, and, to certain extent,
familiar with their officers, and yet the
discipline is perfect.

Marshal MacMahon has issued an extraor-
binary proclamation to the electors of France.
He "awaits with full confidence the manifesto
ton of the peoples sentiments" he says but
he takes care to notify the people in advance
that their sentiments must be manifested in
accordance with his own. He is entirely will
ing that the form of an election shall proceed,
but he wants it distinctly understood that
it will be nothing more than barren form.
The manifesto has created an immense
sensation in France. It is loudly
applauded by the Bonapartist and clerical Or
gans, while the Republican papers manifest
serious alarm at the Marshal's threats.
In France the Republicans have issued an
address to the people, replying, point by point,
to MacMahon's manifesto. The conclud ing
passage is as follows: "Your duty will in
crease with the audacity of those who presume
to impose themselves ON France. You cannot
become the instrument of clericalism. The
republic must have republican functionaries,
and the country expects order, peace and sta
biity through the republic.

The loss, of course, falls upon the

The above amount of coin is consid-
cred very large sum as compared with
the average. 1t was shipment from
California. The company has expected
that some such affair would happen at
some time, and, in anticipation of Just
such deviltry, they have had the doors
OF the express cars barred with boiler
iron. Machinery is SO arranged that
messengers can fix it any time so as not
to open the door more than six inches.
and hence, in this case, there must be
some good explanation, as undoubtedly
there is, as to how the robbers managed
to throw the door wideopen. One man.
1t ls said, with the usual tools and ma
chlnery, ought to keep out twenty men.

and, as he did not step quick enough,
they shot at him twice, one ball grazing

Cummings, who was on the platform at
the same time, got inside just as the
shots were fired. The bullets sunk into
the door frame. The passenger coach
was robbed by six men, who, with point
ed and cooked revolvers, ordered every
body's hands up. They collected 81, 300

failed. The passengers say that there
were thirteen men in the party. Every
effort will be made to capture them.
