JUST now Russia has the sympa- thy of the people on this side of the Atlantic. Possibly England's attitude toward the United States in 1S5l-5 is at the bottom of this sentiment. Though our people would indignantly spurn an accu- sation of official sympathy or party aid to Russia, the undertone of popular comment savers little of English love.

IN March. 1s4s. a few of the en

IN March, 1S4S, a few of the en- terprising business men of Chi cago organizedfa Board of Trade. Thhs membership was less than fifty, add the number for few years did not materially increase, but in the decade ending in 1870, the organization, like the city, made wonderful strides forward. After the great fire of 1871, the association erected q splendid building 93x10O feet in dimen- sions, which it was then thought would answer all requirements for many years to come, but before eight years had elapsed the build ing was found to afford but poor accommodations for the rapidly increasing membership of the Board, and q committee was ap- pointed to secure a suitable site and arrange for a building of proper dimensions. They have just completed their labors, and on April 2Sth the new building was dedicated to commerce. Its dimensions are 163x173 feet, and adjoining it is another building of nearly the same dimensions in tended for offices. The total cost of the building was S1,700,000.

Recent surveys show that the entire city of Virginia, Nevada, has moved over thirty inches to the east since the big fire of 1875. This movement is so gradual that it does not effect in any manner the safety of the buildings, as the ground to depth of nearly one hundred feet to the bedrock is known. to be constantly sliding.
