THE CORONATION AT M

On Sunday, May 9th, the long de-
ferred coronation Of Alexander I'LL,
autocrat OF the Russias, will take place
at Moscow, attended by a magnihcence
Of ceremonial and q wealth Of display
which will dim tho splendor Of every
event of the kind In European histo.
ry. Ten millions of dollars have been
expended In preparing for the pageen.
try of the present week. A hundred
thousand troops, delegations and dig.
nitari's are t%hronging the Imperial
City of the Cars to add to the barbaric
splendor Of the occasion, and repre-.
sentativos from evOry civilized nation
on the globe are present to join In
their congratulations over the an
nolnting Of the monarch of the largest
empire upon which the sun shines.
The journey from st. Petersburg
and the entry of the ear into the his.
toric capital Of the empire have been
described in wesrlGome details by tho
dispatches. A glamour of Oriental
~pageantry hung over the event.
The roads were lined with
troops from over City differ.
ent provinces, and the costumes
Of nearly q hundred different
tribes giittered and cleaned In the
mighty procession which swept OF Its
course from the city gates to the
golden towers Of the Kremlin. Moth
Ing more clearly reveals the true
status Of Russia as an eastern power
despite Its thin veneer of western
civilization than the display Of bar
baric splendor which attended tho
coronation Of Its emperor. The pow.
erful appeals to tho mi through
tho profuse exhibition CT wealth
and the lavish expenditure of
millions of money while poverty
and misery go hand In hand with
oriental oppression throughout tho
empire, are essentially. Aslatio. The
Tartan blood still ans strongly In the
veins of the Romanoffs and Aslatlo
generosity mlngles with A-iatio vices
In the empire.
Bat whatever the demonstrations
of loyalty from an ignorant and su-
perstitiouS peaBantry who see in their
GEAR tho visible head Of the church
on earth, as we'll as their annolnted
ruler, the deep substratum Of discon-
tent and revolt which honeycombs the
middle and the upper classes of Rus
sian society makes itself felt aver at
the coronation Of Alexander iii. Five
thousand secret police patrol the city,
swarm In every street and exercise a
strict surveillance over every house.
Fear Of the omnipresent nihilists
haunts the sacred precincts OF the
Kremlin and encircles the citadel with
q thousand sworn guards. So far
nothing has occurred to mar the
grandeur of q great occasion In which
all the power and of an au-
tocratlo government have been put
forth to anticipate and prevent any
attempt upon the life OF the czar
Whether the entire Russian civil and
military administration will be able
to preserve his head until II has beer
touched by the sacred crown and an
nointed by the holy oil no one Is wise
enough to predict.

A Roman Pageant.

The tournament in the Villa Borg
hess, at Rome, in honor of the mar
riage of the Duke of Genoa, was an
interesting spectacle. 1t will be re-
membered that the Piazza di Scena,
which was planned for pageants of
this kind, and where many have been
given since the days of Pope Paul v,
has exactly the outline of an ancient
Roman circus. The seats which have
been erected along the sides and semi
circular ends were filled with about
thirteen thousand spectators. In the
royal pavilion, on the middle of one
side, hung with crimson velvet and
decorated with flowers, were the king
and queen, the bride and bridegroom,
the Duke of Aosta and Prince Ar
nulph, of Bavaria, with their respect
i've suites On their right was a
pavilion for foreign ambassadors and
ENJOYS, and on the left others for their
families and the cabinet ministers.
The cavaliers, all young Italian mobiles
uiNi'No ihOV AV"h
squadrons of thirty-four riders each,
two representing Bavarians and two
Italians, were mounted on richly
caparisoned thoroughbred horses and
wore handsome sixteenth century cos
tunes of gay colorS, with plumed hats.
They rode into the lists preceded by
the herald, Prince 0descalchi, trumpet
ers and standard bearers, and were led
by the young Prince Naples, who ac-
Quilted himself gallantly. The sports
were of the various kinds practiced at
such pageants-since fitting went out
with the use of armor--the Turk $
head, the hunt of the rose and the like.
The men rode well, and the evolutions,
especially those at a hand gallop and
over hurdles, were admirably executed,
and excited loud bursts of applause.
So gay a spectacle has not been wit
messed in Rome for many years.

The Action OF the Heart.

As with each stroke the heart pro.
jects something like six ounces of
blood into the conduits of the system,
and as it does SO some seventy times
in aminute and 1920 times in an hour,
this implies that it does the same thing
100,S00 times in twenty-f0ur hours
30,000000 times in year, and more
than 2,500,000,O0O times in life of
seventy years. The mechanical force
that is eXerted at each stroke amounts
to a pressure of thirteen pounds upon
the entire charge of blood that has to
be pressed onward through the branch
ing network of vessels. According
to the lowest estimate that has be n
made, this gives an exertion of force
that would be adequate, in another
form of application, to lift l20 tons
one foot high every twenty-four hours.
Yet the piece of living mechanism
that is called upon to do this, and do it
without a pause for threescore years
and ten without being itself worn out
by the effort, is a small bundle of flesh
that rarely weighs more than eleven
ounces. 1t is in the nature of the case,
also, it must be remembered, that this
little vital machine cannot be at any
time stopped for repair. If it gets out
of order, tmust be setright as it runs.
TO stop the beating of the heart for
more than the briefest interval would
be to change life into death. The
narrative of what medical science has
done to penetrate into the secrets of
this delicate force-pump, 50 jealousy
guarded from the intrusion of the eye
that it cannot even be looked into
until its action has ceased, is, never
theless, long history of wonders. BY
means of the spygmograp-a writing
style attached to the wrist by a system
of levers and springs-the pulse is
made to record actual autographs of
cardiac and vascular derangement.-

Nihilists' Secret Printing Office.

carried on. The mechanism was ex-
tremely simple. A few cases with

pan two jars of printing ink. Every
thing was so arranged that it could be
hidden in u quarter of an hour in a
large clothes-press standing in corner
of the room. They explained to me the
mechanism of the work and smilingly
told me of some little artifce which
they employed to divert the suspicious
of the dyornik who came every day
with water, wood, etc. The system
adopted was not that of not allowing
him to enter, but precisely thereverse.
Under various preteXts they made him
see the whole of the rooms as often as
possible, having first removed every
thing which could excite suspicion.
When these preteXts failed others were
invented. Being unable to find a
plausible reason for him to enter the
inner room, MadameKruoli Oneday went
and told him there was rat which
must be killed. The dvornik went
and certainly found nothing; but the
trick was played he had seen the
whole of the rooms and could bear
testimony that there was absolutely
nothing suspicious in them. Once a
month they invariably had people in
to clean the floors of all the rooms. j

THE BLACK EoRSES.

Have You seen the black horses
As they stand In their places,
With the steam of their nostrils
And the fire of their faces.
As they shine in their harness
For their swift, splendid racesp
When they run in the darkness
How they flame in their going!
How they spurn earth behind them !
How the heat in them glowing
Leaves trail on the night
From the sparks they are throwingl
And the hand of the master
Perchance you have wondered
How it kept a firm rein
While they lightened and thundered
In the speed of their passage
As midnight was sundered.
Oh, grand are the horses
That whirl us, unsparing
By hillside and hollow,
Their vigor declaring:
And grand are the drivers
Who urge on their daring!
Fly faster and faster,
Oh, gallant black horses,
As ye fling the hot spdme-hakes
Along your smooth courses;
Fly faster, for heartbeats
Shall add to your forces!
And grip the long lever,
Oh, hand of the master,
As the brass shines like gold
In the teeth of disaster
While the black horses snoring
Comes faster and faster

ON THE EDGE OF TIL E MARSH
IN NOVEMBER.

IN NOVEMBER.
Dead sienna and rusty gold
Tell the year on the marsh is old.
Blacke1ed and bent, the sedges shrink
Back from the sea-pools frosty brink.
Low in the west a wind-cloud lies,
Tossed and wild in the autumn skies.
Over the marshes, mournfully,
Drifts the sound of the restless sea.
IN JUNE.
Fair and green is the marsh in June;
Wide aud warm in the sunny noon.
The Towering rushes fringe the pool
With slender shadows, dim and cool.
From the low bushes bob White calls;
Into his nest a rose leaf falls,
The blue-llag fades; and through the heat
Far off. the seas faint pulses beat
