 Our first impressions of the Czar's southern capital were not very inspiring. The streets are short, narrow, ill-paved and dirty: the buildings low, succeed and shabby. the shops, as q rule, are cramped, dingy, hardly more than blird holes through the wall A few of the better streets have been Europe anized, but there is really nowhere any approach to street architecture, and large per cent. of the dwelling houses are low, one- story succeed boxes, looking much as if they had been transported with yard and stable from the country. The smells are-very pronounced, and not such as, according to Shakespeare, foated from Cleopatras barge when she5mBoIuo to meet Mark An thony. Indeed, Jour English doctor who came on with his family day before yesterday got his fill of them, and says they shall be off tonight. But he is making n mis- take. He should see the city, as we have done from the sparrow hills, the point from which Napoleon got his first view of the city-and he would have carried away very different impression from that with which he is now leaving it. The Russians say-and I suppose beieve-that when Ma poleon from this apot caught his first glimpse of their holy city, he overcome by it's grandeur and beauty, and fell helpless to the ground. It is just possible that some thing of this story may be ascribed to nat ional pride, and we are permitted, l suppose, to make modest abatement from it. But no one who gets his impressions of Moscow from the Sparrow hills will soon lose them, wish to- Certainly it is one of the beau tsful sights of earth; and the enthusiasm of the Muscovite is readily explained, if not justified. The city's countless towers, its thousands of domes, blue, red, silver, green and gold, standing thick like gaudy flowers in garden, the great fortress of the Kremin with it's palaces and churches, and the gleam ing Moskva running at the base f it's high old walls, all make a picture most unique and impressive; and seen we it yes terday, in the mellow light of setting sun, it stirs the emotion too deeply to be ever forgotten.
 But per contra the road from the city gates to the hamlet where is offered this glo- rious view is about the most execrable ev- saw. One marvels that the autocrat should leave it so, for if he would but sell one of 50000 diamonds he owns, he could 1nacadamize the whole distance, and win the everlasting gratitude and benediction of all the horses in Moscow. A blessing, by the way, by no ns to be contemned for horses in Russia, like grass in England, are institution. They are splendid fellows, and old hack among them is about as rare a thing as white crow. The carriage that brought us from the station to our ho- tel was drawn by splendid grays, spirited, well-fed, faultlessly groomed fellows, and

driven at dashing rate four abreast. The Russian loves good horse, and even that garbage cart over wonder, like every other city, is drawn by horse a Boston lady would willingly promote to the dignity of her carriage. You none, anywhere, to remind you of the aspiring New York swill-carter, who had got tired of buying cheap half-dollar horses, and who said he meant to make raise in his next purchase and go up to D cents. These fine horses have very easy and natural connection with one of the national traits of the people, for the Russian is a lazy fellow, who will nev- run when he can walk, never walk when he can ride, and never sit up when he can lie down. I have been three days in the city, one of which was Sunday, and I have yet to see the first we'll dressed Russian man woman, foot in the streets.
 Of course we have been to the Kremin The morning we arrived I strolled up there and passed in through the St. Nicholas gate-like my great predecessor, Napoleon, gate, and, as the Russians take good care you shall remember, went out of it again, some weeks later, with a very big flea in his ear. There is a speaking reminder of this pleasant little incident that confronts the visitor immediately on his right as he enters For here stands the old ansenal, and along it's walls, in the open court, in a double tier, no fewer than S75 brass can- non, that Napoleon somehow or other thought best to leave behind him when he set out to revisit Paris after his pleasure trip to Russia in 1872

A PLEASING PROSPECT.

A great many men in this part of the country would be grateful if someb edy would show them.how to get living. A writer in the New York Star, who seems to know good deal about farming in the South, makes it appear comparatively easy to get living in that section, even if one has nothing to start with.
 He says the terms on which workingmen obtain start practically uniform throughout the cotton belt of the Sout h. There are several plans in vague. One is to work on shares, another is to rent, paying in cotton. Another is to buy on long time with gradual payments in cotton. The first of these is the most generally employed. The laborer wh o works on shares gets 8 cottage to live in, a garden patch, team, all the inn plements needed in his operations, and the right to cut fuel in the woods. The propri- etor advances his supplies, food, clothing, etc. He can take as much land as he is able to cultivate, and is furnished with seed both corn and cotton, to plant. At the end of the year, when the crop is harvested, the pro- prietor and the tenant divide equally, the latter repaying the form CT out of his half for all advances of supplies. On this plan, if man works fifteen acres of good alluvial land ten in cotton and five in corn-he ought,i it is said, to make twelve bales of cotton and two hundred bushels of corn His half of that would be six bales of cotton-at $40, $240-and one hundred bushels of corn-at fifty cents, $50-in all, S290. He gets his dwelling, his fuel, his garden, and range for his COW and hogs free, and he has, in the in tervals of cultivating his own crop, plenty of time for extra farm work, ditchiug, rail splintering, wood cutting and cotton picking, more than enough to cover the expenses of living during the year. He ought, in fact, to start into his second season with at least $500 saved. This will vary, being more one year and less another, but an industrious and frugal workman should easily make it average that much throughout term of years.
 This is a rather attractive showing, and the man who makes it declares that it is not exaggerated in the least. If it is not the South is good place for poor man who knows anything about farming and is will inp to work

CHAS. A. CABRERA, 32 Hawley Street,
 Boston, Mass, writes:
 ''One year ago l was apparently fnr gone with Consumption that my lifo seemed only question of days rather than months. With my faith in the ability of physicians to heb me all gone, I tried almost every known remedy, with no apparent benefit. Finally, as last resort, l was induced to try Dr. R. c. Flowers Lung Cordial. The very first dose gave me relief, and with the first bottle took new lease of life, and 1 can honestly say to-day that one spoonful of this remedy is worth more to the sufferer from Lung troubles than gallon of any other known remedy. A bottle of it is now one of my choicest possessions, and at the first sympto of a cough or cold fly to it for the relief it never fails to give"
 DR. FLOWERS LUNG COR- DIAL is without question the most wonderful Lung remedy ever discovered. It eraGicates the germ of CONSUMPTION as no remedy has ever been known to do. It stands without rival for COUGHS, COLDS, BRON- CHITIS, ASTHMA and CON- SUMPTION.

Quite a sensation was created in
our town last Saturday morning
when it was discovered that some
party or parties had succeeded in
blowing open, with powder, the safe
in the post-oificc and completely de-
molishiug the door. Fortunately the
safe contained no money except
81 so that was in a registered pack
age addressed to W. b. Easley at
this place, and a package of notes,
accounts and etc, belonging to j. e.
Ayers Il Co, of St. Louis addressed
to their agent, A. G. c. Libby. The
packages and all the papers except
a few notes were found in lot south
of the post-ofiice, and it is supposed
the missing notes we're blown away
from the others. We suppose the
same pa:ties who committed the
above deed, the week before blew
open a safe in Lawrenceburg and Sc
cured about 500 aud some valuable
