 The church of SS. Peter and Paul IS the burial place of he emperors, and a solemn place it IS. The large white tomb of Alexander II. is regarded with venera~ ton and surrounded with emblens of grief; they call him their martyr emperor and honor him as the emancipa.or of ,he serfs. Next lies his father Nicholas |, who poisoned himself By his side is the body of his elder brother, who, having married Polish lady for lore, abdicated the throne, which he had forfeited by marrying beneath him. But the abdica- uon could not save him he disappeared, and his death was considered necessary 10 avoid a revolution. Our guioe, con- tinuing the sad history, said !" Here lies Paul, who was suffocaied there is the body of Peter III, who was assassinaied :: there is the tomb of Annie, who was ex- lied 10 Siberia and died of a broken heart, and mex. lies her son. vho was stabbed" We looked as the gilded mag nihcence of the church and the calm of the beautiful marble sombs, and shud- dered with horror al the recital.

 There is . negro in Houston, Texas, who was lately known as Dick Allen, r the ward politician. Under the new regime, when the republicans arc having a tough time of if in Texas, he is called Hon. Richard Allen.' Well the " H on. Richard Allen,' alias Dick, is now arising in his wrath, and is going to make Rome howl the Sunset railway being the Rome in the case. The house of Allen is the proud possessor of a daughter. The pride of the Allen family on account of this common possession among darkies in Texas (,hey not infrequen,ly having a dczen or two sons as well as daughters !. is enhanced by that daughter being a sohool-marm, engaged to teach the youth ful Senegambians how to go through the 'rithmetio and play hockey ard other things taught the white trash. The proud daughter of the still prouder house of Allen was going to aer schoo. the other day to open the fall campaign, and she bough, a ticket 10 Columbus, ,ha. being the sea, of learning. As she was getting into the ladies coach or the San- set train, the polite and attentive brake man softly told her :ha, she could ID, ge; in there, but must go in the other ore
 She vowed, in that delicate. easy. forcible manner so common with ;he American i1ed female SenegambiaEs ;ha, she would see the road - before she would ride in the = smoking cay. She even went so far as 10 stamp her little No. II foo, at the train men, and say tha, she would not go On the - train 3, all, bu, wonld proceed home and tell her pa,ernAl parent, who, she said, weuid do terrible things to the Sunset road for thus offer ing the first stain that had been even a. tempted to be poured on the honor4b house of Allen. The railroad men told her that she need not go unless she wished, but that her ,:eke, would be good whenever she came 10 her senses. Of course, when the Hon. Richard Allen heard the story, he loaned. He rushed around to hEd how many of the abiess lawyers of Texas would take a damage suit of enormous proportions against the Sunset railway company for half the amount that he was sure would be awarded. He even thought, when he considered the enormity of the crime committed, and on whom perpe,ra,ed, that it should be brought in the United States supreme court without foolin' with them ar small cots" as he phrased ii. Bu, no lawyer will take the case, as several such suits have been brought, and the defendants have had 10 pay ali the costs, il is very probable iha: the true friends of ,he house of Allen will tell him that he had best go exceedingly slow abou, trying to damage railway for such thing as ,ha, by suit in court :; but that his only sure way of damaging them is for him to make his daughter walk next time. l. is only s miles.
