Russians at Court.

In the RDmanof gallery at the winter
palace at st. Petersburg tho attention of the
visitor is attracted by green curtain on
one of the walls; it conceals table in-
scrbed with the very curious rules which
ut her assemblies. These regulations were
rs follows: i. Leave your rank outside as
well as your hat, and especially your sword.
2. Leave your right of precedence, your
pride aud any similar feeling outside the door.
3. Be gay; but do not spoil anything; do
not break or gnaw anything. 4. Sit stand,
walk as you will, without reference to any
body. 8. Talk moderately and not very loud,
so as not to make the ears and heads of
hers ache. 6. Argue without anger and
without excitement. z. Neither sigh nor
yawn, nor make anybody dull and heavy.
s. In all innocent games, whatever one pro-
poses let all join. .. Eat whatever is sweet
and savory, but drink with moderation, so
that each one may hud his legs on leaving
tho room. TO- Tell no tales out of school;
the other before leaving the room. A trans
gressor against these rules SHALL on the tes-
timony of two witnesses, for every offense
drink n glass of cold water not excepting
the ladies, and, further, read page of tho
'Telemachiad' aloud. [The 'Telemachiad'
was the work of Il very feeble and evidently
much despised poet named Trcadiato totFsky.l
Whoever breaks any three of these rules
during the same evening shall commit six
lines of the 'Telemachiad' to memory, aud
whoever otfends against the tenth rule shall
not again be admitted"

MISCELLANEO
81. Gnthar,l Tunnel.

Although in consequence of defects die
covered in tho formation Of the rock, the st.
Gothard tunnel Is not likely TO be ready for
ordinary use for some time to come, the nc.
tual timo consumed in cutting through tho
mountain range and the money expended in
the work makes the undertaking, both for
speed and economy, the most remarkable on-
ginoering feat on record. The tunnel is about
one-ffth longer than the Mount Cents tun-
mel, and yet the first was built in seven
years and five months while the second re-
qnired, before an opening was made thirteen
years and one month, while tho total cost Of
the work done on the former is about thirty
per cent less than was paid out in building
the latter. As compared with our Hoosac
tunnel the Mouuo Cents work was quickly
ana chcaply done, and hence the oompar-
ison with this later work would be oven
moro striking. According to NJ Coladon,
who has written an article on this subject
in the Arclires dcs Science, this gain has been
due, first, to the fact that the general plan
of the work as 1t was executed was laid out
in advance by the contractors and, secondly,
to the uso Of improved machinery. Tho
many devices that have been perfected for
tho use of compressed air make tunnel-driv-
ing at tho present time widely different
work from what ii was twenty years ago.
Almost every other means of obtaining
power has some attendant drawback which
makes its employment undesirable in opera.
tons of this kind. But compressed air has
advantages beyond the power that eau be
stored in it. 1t is easily transported and
readily obtainable, and when used in deep
cutting furnishes to the men employed tho
breathing element absolutely essential to
their existence. Another improvement is in
tho forms oil explosives employed, dynamite
producing vastly moro execution than gun
cotton and compressed gunpowder, the explo-
sives formerly used. The speedy work at st.
Gothard suggests tho idea that possibly tho
tunnel or cutting that will have to bo made
If canal at the water level is over built
across the lsthmus Of Panama may not be so
formidable AN undertaking as many people
have supposed. The speed of tunnol-digging
was increased about sixty per cent. on the
| Hoosac record when the Mount Cents cutting
was put through, and now this latter has been
subjected to n gain Of more than 100 per cent.
If this rate of Improvement continues, we
shall soon be able to dig through n mountain
about as easily as we now lay out street on
fairly level ground.
