THE RUSSIAN ADVANCE.

Sir Henry Rawlinson, who knows 6 great deal about affairs in Central Asia, has an ar ticle in the current number of the Nine teenth Century on the Russian advance, and what he says is very interesting. As MT. Rawlinson sees it, the keynote of the Russian advance was sounded soon after and in con- sequence of the Crimean war. It then be came apparent to Russia that in her aspira- tions toward Constantinople she would al- ways find an enemy in England-an enemy unassailable by reason of her insular posi- tion, an enemy whose only exposed point lay across Central Asia The advance toward this exposed point began in 1867 from Oren- burg Thorough work was made. Every advanced post taken was well secured before the next step was taken. In 1869 the Rus sians crossed the Caspian, and invaded the country of the Turkomans, without provoca- tion and without apology. Khiva was taken in 1873, Geok-Tepe in 1880, and Merv in 1884. The occupation of this capital position had marked effect upon all the Asiatic peoples. Persia and Afghanistan were alarmed for their immediate safety, and the Anglo-I Indian government took the most ac- tive measures to settle the northern bounda- ries of the latter country by negotiations with Russia which had been dragging along more than ten years, but had been. prevented from reaching defnitive conclusion through the inability or unwillingness of the Russian government to make stipulations respecting territory beyond her military reach. Never theless a tentative agreement had been reached as early as 1872. This tentative agreement is known as the Granville Gortchakof agreement. It was not put into the form of treaty, but was &C., cepted by both governments ss the basis for one when the proper surveys should have been made. It was not until ten years after this that any further important move was made, and then Russia asked to have the boundary de6nitively settled The English government did not meet this request with much warmth, and it was not until July, 1884, (after the fall of Merv) that the joint commission, consisting of Sir Peter Lumsden and General Zelenoi, was appointed to make the survey. Since the commission was ap pointed little or nothing has been done by it, and the Russians have been claiming that they have succeeded to all the rights of the Turkomans and have expressly received the allegiance of tribe, one of whose clans oe cupied Panjdeh and the Kushk valley with in the Afghan frontier. In order to settle this question of the right of succession to Turkoman claims and Turkoman occupation before proceeding with the survey, General Zelenoi was ordered back to Tifis, and a Russian force was moved forward to Puli- Khatun, within the disputed territory. The Afghans then despatched to Panjdeh the military force whose collision with the Rus- sians recently took place.
 It looks very much as if the Russians knew what they wanted and meant to have it. Thus far they have kept we'll ahead of the English. It remains to be seen if they can continue as they have begun.

Flowers and Folk Lore.


 In Italy and elsewhere the common people do not highly or permanently value scentless flowers. A flower without fragrance is to them almost dead flower. We put the question to troop of English children com ing from wood laden with spells, ''What makes you like primrosess'' 1.-The scent of them" was the answer. A little further along the lane came another troop, and the question was repeated This time the an- swer was, "Because they smell so nice" No flower has been more widely reverenced than unassuming sweet basil, the Basilico odorato of Sicilian songs, the TuIasi plant of India, where it is well-nigh worshiped in the house of every pious Hindu. The scale is gradu- ated thus: The flower which has no smell is plucked in play, but left remorseiy to wither ss children leave their daisy chains; the flower which has purely sweet and fresh perfume is arranged in nosegays, set in water, praised and enjoyed for the day; the flower which has scent of spice and incense and aromatic gums bear off honors scarcely less than divine.

 The new explosive invented by Kfupp, the great gunmaker, is called brown powder, being about the color of chocolate It is said to consist of saltpeter, sulphur and char coal, but in different proportions to ordinary gunpowder. It is said to produce greater velocity, with an equal pressure of gas, and to be applicable to guns of every calibre. It explodes only in tightly-closed space, and in the open air ignites slowly, without explo- sion. Its discovery was accidental.
 According to the St. James Gazette, the bar at this moment is the most overstocked profession in England. The Law List of 1884 comprises 242 pages of counsel entitled to practise at the English bar, and each page contains on an average rather more than thirty names, thus yielding grand total of about :, 200 practitioners for England and those British possessions where English counsel have right of audience. This total does not include the members of the Scotch bar or of the Irish bar or of the bar of the Isle of Man
 Railroad projects are just now numerous in South and North Carolina, there being no less than thirteen important lines in various stages of construction. One of these is de- signed to secure railroad connections between Charleston and the West. The promoters of the scheme are hopeful of success, though there has been much difficulty in influencing capitalists to invest the half million dollars or more necessary for it's completion. The proposed road will be tributary to the Louis vile & Nashville system. Another railroad, now building, will give the central counties of South Carolina direct access to Savannah, whither cotton can be shipped more cheaply than to Charleston. Still another line is to connect Atlanta with Richmond, and anoth- CT, extension of the East Tennessee sys- tenn, is expected to open up valuable tracts for the growth of cotton and cereals.
 MT. Miller, president of the Liquor Deal ers' Protective association, thinks that the hard times have affected the whisky trade. Their influence in reducing the sale of beer was visible some time ago. Foreign work men chiefly drink beer, according to MT. Mill Ter, and the hard times are felt by them first, and as their wages are reduced or they get out of work, they have less money to buy beer, and so the trade has suffered. Ameri-
