A Great Russian Gambler.

Prince Demidoff's gambling exploits
have furnished the matter of more than
n paragraph to the Partisan chroni-
queurs during the last few days. He
once played a match at ecarte with
Khalil Bey, another inveterate game
ster, the stake being $4,000 each game,
and it was agreed between the parties
that they We're to go on playing till one
of them had lost a "million to the
other. They played all night in u pri-
vate room in the Cafe Anglais, Khalil
Bey winning EGO. 600 in the first hour or
two; but his luck then turned, and at
nine o'clock next morning the Prince
had won $4,000. Fatigued with so
long a struggle, the players lay down
or the sofas in the room for a siesta,,
and slept till midday, when. after a
light breakfast, they sat down to the
card-table again. They broke off for an
hour in the evening for dinner, resumed
their game, played through the whole
of the second night, and at half-past
eleven next morning Khalil Bey, who was
favored by a second run of luck, won the
match and pocketed the Princes check
for E4O, OOO.-St. James Gazette.

Presbyterianism has of late years made very
considerable progress in the British metropolis.
Its democratic mode of government seems to
have III 1t something which comments it to
the rising clas>es-Ihe nOaoeaur riches. The
prosperity which has attended Presbyteransm
has been revealed in Liverpool, Manchester
and others of the large cities. AT NEE, ing of
the committee of the Synod, held in London.
under the presidency of Prof. Leone Levi, it
was unanimously resolved to request the Rev.
A. Ii. Drysdale, of Morpeth, to write His

quest, it is understood, has been complied with.
If written with intelligence and from the prop

resurrection. presents an inviting theme TO the
