FORTRESS OF THE NEvA.
A Russian Prison from which None Al
Permitted TO Return.

A Russian Prison from which None Are
Permitted 60 Return.
The fortress up the Eeva is a terrible
prison. where offenders against the govern
ment are given q court martial and pun
ished None are known 10 be acquitted, so
that no tales come from the place. When a
man OF woman goes 70 the fortress he or she
is never heard Of more A subject is sent TO
Siberia in exile or is shot in the pen Like
pig. In any event a trip there is a journey
10 death
The fortress is on a little island and can
only be reached by a boat None but officers
of the empire, with special permission to do
so, are allowed 10 approach it. A number
of strangers, out fishing or rowing, and not
knowing what the fortress was, have lost
their lives in attempting to land there. On
the walls surrounding it are ever sentinels-
guards who have instructions to shoot down
without question or warning all who sp-
proach without authority. When the nature
of the place is known and the uses of it un-
derstood, the purposes Of this arsenal are
seen Ali suspects-every one known to be
plotting or working against the crown, or
any of the imperial susjocts-are taken here
for examination and execution, and so many
efforts are continually made to destroy the
fortress or rescue some one in it; and since
those who are taken to it are, in the eyes Of
the car, the rankest criminals, great efforts
must be put forth to keep intruders away.
II is said the waters about it are often Grim
son with human blood
From the fortress thousands of human souls
have taken flight every year since it was con
structed, and tens OF thousands of sentences
have been pronounced against exiles, or those
who are destined to exils 1t is a sober look
ing structure, and sunk half way into the
water. Originally ii was intended as a de
fense in war, but now it is the scene of the
expiation Of crime against the crown. There
is no crime punishable by death, except
against the crown. A man may murder a
whole household of people in cold blood and
escape with but a five year sentence; but if
he criticises the government, the car, a
member of his family, or officer, be is shot
at the fortress or exiled to Siberia-the same
IL he advocates free government, franchise,
a constitution or public schools.
Almost every day men and women are
taken from the shops or their homes and
carried in the direction Of the fortress. No
one knows what they have done amiss. II
they have offended the government they are
exiled; If they have injured the cause of the
government they are shot The examinations
are conducted secretly. Not only is the sub
jet not permitted to make defense, but his
friends are not advised of his arrest, charge
or sentence. And the crown takes delight In
making punishment OF his offenders as swift,
stern and extreme as possible, that the tread
toward nihilism may be chec ed But it
doesn't seem to check it. Russian never
looks up tho Neva from st. Petersburg but
that he thinks Of the fortress, and be never
thinks of the fortress without shu6dering.-
