SAYS the San Francisco Gail: Every
one knows that mems passions, propensities
and peculiarities, as well as their callings,
are reflected in their faces" Nothing of
the kind. The worst rascals unhung are
often as honest-faced as angels. The most
vicious of men are often the most placid
countenanced, and by their faces wonld de-
ceive Gabriel himself. How constantly
do we hear of men falling from grace as
the phrase goes Yet these men must
have carried their crime in the face for a
long time. If any one had been able to
read their features the mischief might
have been averted" From which the
Call proceeds to the conclusion that the
study of physiognomy must be advanced
and made an essential in the future, in
, order that we may detect grand rascaIs in
advance, women read their lovers before
marriage and merchants engage clerks by
the external indications of the internal
moral state. All which, we take, it is
illogical and unsupported by the expert
ence of men. There is such thing as
face reading, but it can never be an exact
science or one upon which ordinary re-
lance can be placed. Faces of men, so
far from being mirrors of their souls, are
oftener than otherwise masks to the real
propensities and tendencies of their
natures.

Russia Notifies Austria of the March of
More Troops to the Frontier.
VIENNA, January 9th.-Advices are op-
posed to the peace predictions. Colonel
Zulitf, the Russian Military A ,tache at
Vienna, in the course of an official COM
munication to the Austrian military au-
thGrities, stated that he was permitted TO
inform them that his Government had
decided in furtherance of The measures
recently announced in the Taudlid Russo, to
move two more divisions of troops 10 the
frontier.
The announcement is regarded as clear
evidence of the continued seriousness of
the position. The fact that Colonel Zuliff
was instructed to give the notice is con-
sidered part of the diplomatic game which
Russia is now unfolding.

FAIR MARKET FOR STOCKS.
There was a pretty fair stock market to-day,
and the dealings developed no little confidence in
the situai lon. The further advance made on
yesterdays prices covered from l-2 to per cent

not these reports shall prove to be twcnty-fOur
or fort weight hours premature. the end has been
evident for e,al days. The meeting OF Western
RI lrOad mqnagers at Chicago today was another
favorable allure; not that it WIS expected that
anything IN the way Of settlement would be
accomplished to-day hut that the meeting to-
gcthcr. even if for nothing more than to talk the
situation over WAS an irdicatGn that MANAGERS
