TrepOf.

General Trepof, the suspended pre-
feet of police at st. Petersburg, had
suffered from several assaults before he
was attacked by Mile. Vera Sassulitch,
who recently attempted 10 assassinate
him and was acquitted by a jury. Fiji
teen years ago, in 1863. the general, who
was at that time chief of the police at
Warsaw, was the object Of a formidable
onslaught on the part Of some half dozen
insurgents disguised as peaceful rustics.
These sham peasants had taken care TO
arm themselves with hatehets, which
they carried loosely in their girdles as
part of their ordinary equipment. 1t
was Sunday morning, and Gen. TrepOff
was returning from church in company
with his daughter and his daughter 3
governess, when the disguised revolu-
tionists approached him. A general
attack had probably been intended, in
which case Trepoff must have been
killed. Only one, however, Of the band
had nerve enough to strike the blow T;
and he, instead OF inficting a mortal
wound, only succeeded in bruising and
lacerating Trepoffs shoulder. The gen.
eral seized his assailant, disarmed him,
and gave him in charge 10 the police,
who, Of course, were at hand. The rest
of the band took to fight, and endeavor-
ed to escape through shop which had
a double entrance in front and in rear of
the house. Five, however, OF the sham
peasants, who turned ont to be "execu-
tive agents" +" or, as the Russians put it,
"hired assassins of the revolutionary
government, were caught, brought be-
fore a tribunal. and-not being tried,
like Vera Sassulitch, by jury of their
own countrymen, but by commission
of Russian officers were sentenced TO
death and hanged in ghastly and fantas-
tic costumes said to be Of traditional
medi@val pattern.

RoumanIan Towns and Cities.

Perhaps the most remarkable feature
Of Roumania is the enormous difference
between tho villages and tho towns OF
moderate size, as well as Of the cities.
Louis Blanc says that In France there is
an abyss between the city aud country;
aud this would certainly seem 20 be- the
case in the Wallachian principally. The
towns arc full Of activity, and in Ger
tain kinds Of trade manifest real energy,
but I've miles from any town most Of
the villages are semi barbRric. No
RoumAniAns whom | met conld give me
the true reason for this fact. They spoke
with discouraged tone Of the burdens of
war aud tho slow progress Of education
consequent upon the poverty u the
country. But Il must not be supposed
that ROumaniA iH Indifferent % o~the
cause Of national education. The con-
stituton provides for liberal primary
instruction, and renders il compulsory
wherever schools are established"
Each village or district iA supposed 30
provide funds for the support Of free
schools, but the villagers plead their
extreme misery as an excuse, and prefer
90 keep their children steadily ut work
as soon as they are strong enough to go
afeld, rather than to accord them time
b. study. There were, nevertheless. but
few years since nearly SIXTY live thou
sand children frequenting rural primary
| schools, and twenty -Aeven thousand were
receiving elementary education in city
| schools. instruction In RoumAniA Ia
divided, as in France, into three grades
/ primary, secondary and superior or
professional. In the highest grade the
| RoumAniAns have numerous establish
menta which will bear favorable
comparison with similar ones ia other
lands. .....
The khan, the monastery and the
villagers hut seing the only shelters for
4 the traveller across the mighty plain or
/ through the rugged mountains Of the
/ principality, il is not astonishing that
when he arrives in Bucharest, the
/ capital, he is ready 10 bestow upon il
ali the extravagant titles which il has
received during the last generation, such
as THE City Of Pleasure, Paris In
/ the East, " The Wanderers Paradise, ="
etc. After months Of weary wandering
I in Turkey-in-E Europe, he who reaches
/ the well-kept and handsome streets Of
the new quarter Of Bucharest, who finds
himself once more daEEled by the glitter
Of European uniforms, and surrounded
I by evidences Of luxury and fashion, the
very memory Of which had begun 10
| fade from his mind, is amazed and
enchanted. II is like coming ont OF a
/ dreary desert directly upon a garden
hned with choice and beautiful flowers,
with ripplinP rivulets and plAshing
fountains. -- EfBdrd King, ia LiPpin.

A Perseyering Little Bird.

! A notable little bird often met with in
| Europe is called the turnstone. IL has
earned this singular name by the man
ner in which it procures its food, which
is by turning over, with its strong,
curved beak, the stones on the scashore,
in order to obtain the insects under them.
Walking along the seashore on the
Scotch coast, one day, an eminent natur-
alist once saw two of these little birds
trying hard 10 turn over Goldfish, but
as il was six times as large as themselves
they found their task rather difficult.
Still they set bravely TO work, pushing
away first with their bills and then with
their breasts but in spite of their push
ing the fish would not turn over, so
! they ran round TO the other side of il,
