1t costs six roubles year 10 annual sub
scribers-so, Mt least, we are informed
by the announcement inviting new sub.
scribers which is printed at the head of
this strange periodical. Shall we call
this audacity or banter?
"The editors of the Land and Liberty
quite coolly invite readers to subscribe
to their paper, rs though it was a mere
matter Of course. They further inform
us what pamphlets have recently been
republshed, and what will shortly ap-
pear and to this announcement they
add the intimation that these publica.
tions are to be bought for so much, at
the well known places The form Of the
revolutionary newspaper itself very
nearly resembles that of the AugsbWg
AHcgc'ncin Zeifung or the London Ga.
zete. The printed matter is on coarse
paper and clear, although evidently, at
times, hurriedly put together. The text
generally occupies from sixteen to twenty.
four pages. The assumption is that each
Of the confederates employed on the pa
per carries about with him quantity of
type that on a fixed day lie takes this
to the secret printing Office; that there
the various articles are get up as rapidly
as can be done, put together, and made
ready for printing, so that in Il few hours
the whole business is over.
OFFICIALS FOREwARNED.
"On the day after that assination of
Mesenzeff, the Chief of the St. Peters
burg Secret Division, the ,Scmiu i .SraJola
appeared with an illustration. On the
front page of the paper appeared the
commencement Of n grand proclamation
of which the substance was rs fol-
lows:
Yesterday, in accordance. with the
sentence Of the National Revolutionary
Committee, there fell Gen. MesenzeH,
Chief Of the Sd Division of the Secret
Chancelery of His Majesty. He had
tramplcd right under foot lie tortured
his pritone's persccudcd the innocent
and in his official capacity murdered
partly by brutal i'll treatment by hunger,
thirst, and the rod, and partly by his
minions, the following PERSONS ('Then
follows a list of names with cause Of their
imprisonment and the circumstances of
their death.) The measure of Mesen-
zeff was full. We gave him Warming
which he disrcgardcd.'
Thus the proclamation proceeds for
some length, but it breaks off on the first
page III order to make room for the illus
tration just mentioned, which is accom-
panied by revolutionary dirge. The
picture represents tic murdered Mesen-
zeff lying on catafalque. Around him
bright tapers are burning. The poem
tells the reasons fer his death, and re-
lates how the Gar comes in to take n
last farewell of his faithful servant. The
Emperor enters, takes off his helmet, and
kneels down at the foot Of the coffin.
Soft church music is then beard and the
lights suddenly go out, There is sound
of thunder and of rushing wind in the
air; the music suddenly stops, and into
the chamber of death there dances a
long line Of shades of the murdered
hollow eyed, covered in rags, and fctters
rattling on their limbs. The ghostly
company dance the dance of death round
the Emperor and the corpse of Mesenzeff,
They lift their arms in menacing fashion
pointing to the wounds which the assas-
sinated Chief Of the Police had inflicted
OH them. Then suddenly ccasiag from
the dance, they join in chorus, singing
1T is not he we pity, but ourselves, who
were murdered for no crime; he only
had what he deserved refrain from
reproducing the whole of the drge; il
is too frantically insane and fantastic
| only wish to give some illustration oil
the length to which the audacity of the
,Srmia SraJodu is carried.
After the assassination Of Krapotkin
another announcement Of the secret tri-
bunal was made in the revolutionary
journal. A reward Of 5000 roubles had
been offered for the discovery of they
murderers of Mesenzcff, but nobody came
forward to earn the reward. After the at
TENT on krapotkin the reward was dou-
bled in the hope OF tempting some one in
the hostile camp 10 turn traitor and this
time man actually presented himself
before the Chief Of the Gendarmerie ant
betrayed the whereabouts of two secre
printing Offices in St. Petersburg. One
of them was in the Office for shipping
dues on the Gundujevski Ostroff, the
