A Russian Incident.

A friend of mine was in the Troitza
restaurant at Moscow one day when a
merchant suddenly fell dead from apo
plexy. In an instant the tables near
him were deserted. There was no one
to unite the expiring mans neckerchief.
The first thought OF every one was how
to escape the police, who would have re-
quired the daily attendance of all present
for an indefinite period, even if they had
not imprisoned them and affected to re-
gard them as the spoplectic 9entleman's
gentleman aesassins. The result Of
such system is to degrade men to the
level of beasts, and policemen to that of
demons? The Russinns at Home and

ID Not Want a Decoration.

In one of his last visits to the Valsav-
rance, Victor Emmanuel expressed a
wish 10 present the old Syndic with the
Order of the Gown of Italy. "Thans
you, Monsieur lie Roi," said the old man,
who by birth WAS peasant, that sort
of thing does not suit us--all that is for
the fine cloth coats" "But when it j.
the king himself who off rs it TO your
cit is ali one, Monsieur lie Roi; W.
peasants have to work, and with thi.
decoration one has to set up to be a gen
tlemsn. We cannot live like gentle
folks" The king said no more about it
but sent the worthy syniic some re
msrkably fine horned cattle and sheep
which were accepted without dsmur.-

The Courts.

The business OF the Supreme Court is
at present largely in arrears. 1t can
not be expected that more causes
ca. be decided than are now disposed Of in Its
annual session, or THAT by any assIduity the dis,
tinguished Magistrates who compose she court
can accomplish more than Is nos done.
In the courts of many of the circuits also, the
business has increased to such an extent tina
tho delay of justice will call the at cation of
Congress 10 an appropriate remedy. 1t is
believed that all il done in each cir
uit which can be fairly expected from It's
iudicial force. The evils arisng from delay
are less heavily felt 10y the United
States than by private suitors, as its
c.uscs are advanced by the courts when
il IS seen that they involve the discussion
" questions Of pubic character. The remedy
suggested by the Attorney General is the APP
pointment of additional Circuit Jud 8, and the
creation Of an intermediate Court of Errors an 4
Appeals, Which shall relieve the Sap enc Court
