FASEEES IN RUSSIA.

PANhEF:S An hCSSId.
Hating the Germans, looking down on
the French, and disliking the English,
che Russians seem 10 reserve ell their
goodwill for Americans With then:
American" or "Ysnkee" is the synonym
OF in niomitable energy. OF intrepid enter
prise, OF wonderful ability, and Of frank
truth-telling. They cali their own abiest
engineers, inventors and discoverers
Yankees" by way of compliment. NJ.
Gablochkoff, the inventor Of the electric
candle, and Col. P,ievalsky, the bold
Asiatic explorer, are sample Russian
Yankees.
Once I was talking with Russian
friend about the possible destiny oS our
globe. "There is DO need Of worrying,
ourselves about the fate Of the globe,
he a"id, "for there con be no serious
danger for her SO long sa she has on
boala our transatlantic iriends. Ii G.
collision with some other planet should
threaten her, the Yankees would st once
rig up Q r1:dder, sails, Oh some other de"
vice, and get her cut OF the scrape."
The Russians are particularly char1ne.,
with the democratic manners o2 AIneri-
cans. These appeal to 9 characteristic
national trait of the Russians theulselye5.
They despise from the bottom OF theic
hearts ali pretenslon, arrogance, aud
walking on Suits. That's why tlo Rus
SLAMS stretch friendly hands 10 the people
across the ocean. IN spite o: the abyss
that lies between their Govecnpien! and
thet Of the Union.
My persona; experience is That A1oezi-
can citizens in general, and American
business men in particular are wniIaly
welcomed il Russia. On the rarj Of the
Czar's Government there IS not the least
fear thet tho VIII inocuiate The Rua-
sisns with republicaniam. Once l asked
Colonel OF gendGrmes whether be had
any apprehension OF dangerous results
from The close relations of the Russians
and the Americans, "Not the least, 10
answered, promptly. Iour citEeas
sre too sensible ard practical 70 he
dangerous 70 our Government. To
imagine practical Yankee ind,lginS in
theorizing with IDLE Russians wo;Jd he
to suppose the most improbable Of all
improbable things"
The Russian capitalista and b1lsin"ss
men in general are aprerentl? glad 20
have Americans come here, and closely
observe their ways ;s doing business
They prefer to invite American engineers
81 Russia instead Of sending their en
gineers to study in Ameriea.--.St. Peters.
