RIGOROUS REGULATION

RIGOROUS REGULATIONS.
ST.. PETERSBURG, May Ia feeling Of gloom
prevails. The rigorous police regulations
watching houses and visits and
searches by night, are to be made still more
stringent. After in the evening nobody will
be at liberty to show himself IN the street
without certificate upon which must be writ
ten and attested the place from which the
bearer comes and to which he is going Gen.
Gourko, governor general, planned this ordi-
nance. Soon it will not be necessary to light
candle till half-past 9. yet at every one must
be in doors, and after 10, as in barracks, every
light must be out. notwithstanding the inse-
curity in st. Petersburg increases. Every day

with the idea that the danger has been exag-
gerated. They also reckon on the harsh meas

among the people who, when the time comes
for grand attack on the government, would

failed to find scrap of paper which appeared
to have any thing to do with the proclamation.
The secret bill sticker on the other hand went
on with his work, the police unable to discover
him. The alarm at last became great that
two companies under Col. Deberg, were posted
at the entrances to number of houses and in
the street, but when the guard had it's atten-
ton called to the right bills were posted on the
left and after they had been torn down on the
left they reappeared on the right. Since the
