eleven English miles,, without sparing
the whip-cord. When he returned
from his excursion he shaved the I'M
lucky woman's head, tarred and feath-
cred her, and turned her out of doors.
She naturally sought refuge and con.
ISOLATION from her parish priest; but he
sent her back to her lord and master,
prescribing further fagellation. An
appeal to justice by the poor woman
and her relatives resulted IN a non
it,and any recourse to higher court
will probably terminate in the same
manner. The use of the whip is almost
universal in Russia;any magistrate can
order the knout to be applied to a male
factor, and a contemporary informs us
that the fearful instrument consists of
a lash of leather, dipped in glue, and
then thickly incrusted with iron FL
ings and powdered glass. 1t needs
hardly to be said that death under this
punishment is not unfrequent. Until
quite recently the master or mistress
of a household used to horsewhip the
domestic servants on New Years Day,
to remind them of their inferior posi-
ton. The liberation of the serfs does
not seem to have completed Russian
civilization.

BeaconsReld's Reporter.

The London Times keeps a special
reporter for Lord BeacOnsfield,- Mr..
Neilson,-and, whenever the Prime
Minister may be speaking, there you
will see an old, gray-headed man, with
gold.rimmed spectacles, with his note
book and pencil. He is one of the
best shorthand writers in the gallery;
and it is a remarkable fact that this
gentleman has "taken" every speech,
or almost every speech, that Lord Bea-
consfield has made in or out of the
House of Commons. He took MIR.
Disraeli's maiden speech in the House
of Commons, and Mr.. Disrael was SO
pleased with the fairness and accuracy
that, if you may credit the tradition OF
il he called the next morning IN Print
ing-house Square to see and thank the
reporter. s,If ever / come to the en-
inence | hope to REACH" said Mr..
Disraeli, shaking hands with Mr.. Neil
son, Il can only hope that shall be as
well reported as you have reported me
to-day" Mr.. Disraeli has had his
wish doubly. He has reached the en-
inence he hoped to reach, the highest
and proudest position that an English
man can hold, and in that position the
Earl of Beaconsfeld has the gratltica-
ton of being 'taken" by the reporter
who forty years ago "took" the mai
den speech of Vivian Grey in the House
of Commons.
