their landlords are Poles-sobles-snd
of the Church Of Rune, aud the ele-
mcuts Of sympathy with Russia and in
testine discord are not far to seek.
Poland, that chronic thorn 10 the flesh
to mighty Muscovy, torn. bleeding and
dismembcred, struggles no more; but
Poles are what they were when q Polish
king WAS stormily elected by armed horse
men riding up, squadron after squadron,
to vote; and those who know them best
ecarcely know whether to praise or blame.
1t is singular that the dull Russian should
for hundred years have beeu the master
of the quick witted Sarmatian. In u
competitive examination the Pole would
come in an easy winner. His fiery valor
has often borne down the patient cOur-
age of bis foe. But the Russian at least
knows his own mind, while the Pole 3
more ftful nature changes like an April
day, and the one thing certain about him
is that activity will be succeeded by in
dolence, aud feverish hope by the Ian
guor of despair.
The Poles supply excellent but dis.
trusted soldiers to the Russian ranks; and
indeed the highly disciplined army, en-
tirely composed of Polish troops, which
the half-mad tyrant Constantine raised at
Warsaw fifty years ago, outshone the I'm
perial Guard itself Even now a regi-
ment which contains large Polish ele-
ment, is sure, sooner or later, to prove
troublesome. Nothing-not even Siberia

is difficult for US TO realize the feelings
and prejudices of these young men-sons,
very likely, of the village carpenter and
village blacksmith, but still free Polish
mobiles, whose ancestors helped to elect
their king Just as did the fOrefathers Of
the count in his castle, or of the prince
who, in Paris or st. Petersburg, does his
best to forget Poland. Then comes the
, plot, and the betrayal, and the punish
ment, and the hushing up of the affair
. and so ends the dreary little drama.
The so-called duchies, south Of the
Baltic, contain three races, which, in spite
of systematic efforts, have not as yet
been assimilated tn the Russian pattern.
The plastic Let's, the stern, stubborn Es-
thonians "a tribe that chung longer to
Paganism than any people south Of the
White Sea- and those German Courland-
ers, in when Prince Bismarck is thought
to feel sympathetic interest, have hith-
crtO shown enough Of national vitality to
preserve o separate existence. Of less
account arc the few and poor descend
ants Of those ingram fishermen who used
to spread their nets to dry where now
