wOMEN's INFLUENCE IN RUSSIA.
Philadelphia Record. |


Women have played most important
part in Russian history from Olga, wise
and able ruler of the embryo empire in
the middle of the tenth century, to Cath.
crime H., whose long and brilliant reign
of thirty-four years, ending in l776, ex.
hibits her as the most successful sover-
eign of Russia since Peter the Great. It
was Sophia, niece of Constantine, the
last Byzantine Emperor, and wife of Ivan
Ill, who toward the close of the fifteenth
century caused her Imperial spouse to in
troduce the arts of civilization into the
almost barbarous realm. The good
Queen Anastasia, first of the royal Roman.
ofs, is relsted to have exercised most
beneficial influence over her husband,
Ivan the Terrible. The Grand Duchess
Sophia, half sister of Peter the Great,
was singularly able and ambitious
woman, and her administration as Princess
Regent, though brief, marked notable
epoch in the annals of her county. Cath
crime H., and afterward Anna, in the first
half Of the eighteenth century, were weak
enough to allow themselves to be con-
trolled, not unlike many male rulers, by
persons of the opposite sex; and they
may be regarded rather as administrative
figure-heads than otherwise. Elizabeth,
who reigned from l740 to 1862, was an
Empress in fact as well as in name. She
dethroned her immediate predecessor
after he had been nominal head of the
nation for about year. During her
reign the German party was deprived of
the undue influence it had acquired only
to abuse it; the Senate was restored to
the power assigned to it by Peter the
Great, her father, and her career was
altogether worthy of her illustrious
origin. Her successor, Peter Ill, was,
by noteworthy repetition of history,
dethroned by his gifted and energetic
consort, who as Catherine H., entered
upon reign whose splsndor of achieve
ment and sagacity of governmental
methods compare favorably with the
career of any monarch the world ever has
seen.

Dining out one evening Talleyrand sat
between Madame de Stael, the French
authoress, and Madame Recamier, the
celebrated French beauty. The author
ess, who was far from being handsome
woman, was jealous of the attention
which he paid to the beauty, and insisted
upon his telling which he would save if
she and Madame Recamier were both
drowning. He tried for some time to
evade the question, but as she would not
be put off, he said at last, with the in
evitable shrug: "Ah, madame, you know
how to swim"

There was revival in progress at
Orange, Indiana, conducted by Rev. Mr..
Potts. Frank Osborne, sinner, attend
ed regularly, held out obdurately, and
disturbed the service by bad conduct.
The minister preached at him night after
night without avail. His patience wore
out at last. One evening he deliberately
walked down the aisle to Osborne and
pounded his head with club. The sim
ner was carried out insensible, the
preacher was fined next day, and the re-
vival came to an end. Thus the devil
got the best of it.

The number of serfs liberated by the
murdered Gar was 100000 and a
writer in Frazer's Magazine says: The
serfs were not only freed, they were
established as peasant proprietors on the
soil which they titled. To every peasant
was decreed fixity of tenure at fixed rents,
either IN labor or in money. The State
also al, helped him to purchase his farm.
Inc extent of that farm was decided by
the Communal Council. but the average
Is about ten acres. If the landlord re-
ceives flO yearly rent from ten peasants
OF commune holding 200 acres. the
peasants had the option Of buying at about
Log years purchase, or say fi67. The
State lent them fl34, to be paid in 49
years, at per cent. or about f8 per wear.
while they had to pay f33 themselves as
their share of the purchase money. In a
large majority Of cases, however, the
peasant did not pay anything When
the land was compolsorily redeemed
without the consent of the peasant the
landlord had to take four-fifths advanced
by the Government as payment in full.
