4 good story of Prince Paskievitch,
father of the Princess Kourakme: Du-
ring the siege of Warsaw he had ordered
a certain Polish battery to be silenced by
his own artillery, and became perfectly
wild with rage on observing that the ar
tillery fire produced no appreciable effect.
Galloping to the battery he asked: What
idiot is in charge herel" 81, sir" an
swered an officer. Then down you go
to the ranks thisvery day. said Paskie-
witch; 'you don't begin to know your
trade; your shells do not explode Il
know they DON'T said the captain; "for
the best of all reasons, that they can't ex-
ploder That's he" said the prince
us itl See for yourself, Them replied
the officer cody picking up shell from
the pile and lighting the fuse, and hold
ing it up between himself and the mar
shall. The marshal TRANQUILITY crossed
his arms and watched tall the fuse sput-
tered and went out. "There, sir" said
the artilleryman, triumphantly, as he
threw the shell on the ground. "You
were right after all" growled the mar
shall, and rode away to another point Of
The line. but at night thecaptain received
at his tent the cross of St Vladimir for
bravery in the field.

Russian Tribes.

At time when Russia has summoned
all her tribes to arms, a collection of the
different tribes who obey the command of
the "Autocrat of all the Russias" may
not be uninteresting. And the following
is the result of the latest census of the
Russian Empire:
The extensive Empire of the Car con-
tains the following nations: In Europe
mot including the Kingdom of PolanD,
100000 Russians 100000 Poles, 10000
Bulgarians, 100000 Germans, $4,000
Greeks, $4,000 Moldavians, 2,340,000
Lithuanians, 3,035.000 Firms, 100000
Jews. 800 Armenians, 1,313,000 Tar
tars. ,037 900 Baskirs. 10000 Kirgese,
100000 Calmucks, 1900 Samoyerdes, 2S,-
600 Gypsics. and 10000 of other nations
In all, the number of inhabitants of Euro
pean Russia is 61,250,000. The Kingdom
of Poland, according to the census of 1868,
numbered 3.450,000 Poles, $4,000 Jews
(the largest per cent OF lsrarlites in any
country, 10 per cent out Of the entire
population), 100000 Rus ,ians 100000
Germans. and 2S5,000 L;thuanians. In
the Government of Cauc lsus there dwell
$4,000 Russians, $4,000 Grusians, $780,
600 Armenians, $500 Greeks, 5000 Ger
mans, 900 Jews. $4,000 Tartars, and
S98,000 of different mountain tribes. Be-
sides, there were 10000 Calmucks.
There dwell in Siberia about 100000
Russians, inclusive of those banisned
1000 Israelites, and 5000 Germans.
Viewed from religious standpoint, Russia
has over 81 100000 Greek orthodox, SOL
900 Raskolinks armenian Catholics),
2,S40,0O0 Roman Catholics, 100000
Protestants, 100000 Jews. 100000
Pagans In Caucasus and Siberia the
the christians in number are not much
superior to the Mohammedans. They
number in all 2, AGO, 900, while the Moham-
medans number ,950, 900, the Jews 21,-
600, and the Pagans 14,760. That great
Empire, with its G6,000,000 inhabitants,
has but tbirty-six towns of more than 3d.

How he kicks and CrOWsi
For he knows. oh. lie knows.
That Tan only a little brown mouse
mat lives in his grandmother house
I'm only q little brown mouse
That lives in somebody house:
and m that same house there's clock
That saws. Tick q took. tiek-a-tock,' ~
And I've not forgotten quite,
How once, on q very =till night
was sitting just over the clock.
When Il gave such terrible knock,
With whirring and whizzing
And buzzing and fixing.
hst | tumhlcd headlOng from my perch ON
the shelf
And, seampering wildly, l crowded myself
Right under the door, through such small
crack,
That scraped the hair, of The top Of my
back
Oh, am the merTiest mouse
That lives anywhere in a house.
love toasted cheese. and ! love Crusts Of
bread,
Nnd bits Of old paper to make a soft bed
Oh. tell YOU it's nice,
To be one Of the mice,
And when the night comes
To rattle and race
On the floor overhead
nd, say. don't YOU wish you could run up a
wall
= do, every day. without getting islls
ind don't YOU wish yo,f were a mouse.
