Mr.. w. u. Williams finds the benef-
cence Of snow fully manifested in such a
climate Us that of Siberia, where a tenn.
perature Of 20 or SO degs below zero
or 80 or 40 degs. below the freezing point
Of mercury-was recorded last October.
The snow, coming early in the season
and being an almost absolute non-con-
ductor OF heat, serves as an effective
clothing for the soil, which is thus pro-
tected from so low a minimum tempera-
ture as it occasionally reaches in England
with the air at Is or 90 deys. over naked

districts from us. True, we subse-
qusntly demanded back the appropri-
ated territory from Russia, and she
was obliged, yielding to the pressure
Of public opinion, to restore the lands;
but Russia has never renounced her
designs. Thus deserters who crossed
the Chinese borders into Russia are
overw helmed with kindness and treat
ed In the most friendly way in order to
attach them TO Russia.
Several also of the Mongolisn tribes
have allowed themselves 10 be caught
in the snare of Russian intrigue.
Still further ground for apprehen-
sion is Hun-chuD, the most important
gate Of entry into China from Russia.
There the Russians are day by day
gathering large masses Of troops: Off.
GERS are introduced there disguised as
merchants, and soldiers as convicts.
Considering that Hun-chun Ia not a
great commercial center, We are justi,
tied in asking the reason Of this mass
ing of troops.
We cannot be wrong in assuming
that Russia has designs upon Chinese
Turkestan, and it will be deeply re.
GREETED that China should make such
mistake as 10 cede Hup-chun u
Russia. Again, Russia directed her
attention to Korea, and kept an unin.
terrupted watch upon, just as Japan
did. Fortunately, while things were
yet in an early stage of development,
China adopted the resolution of open.
ing Korea to the commerce OF all ma
tions. In consequence Of this nothing
remained TO Japan but to withdraw
its hand. Russia, however, did not
give up her plans for the annexation
of the peninsula, aud thereby led the
English government TO occupy Fort
Hamilton. Russia's plans were, Of
course, disturbed by this, but she has
not renounced them on this account.
The reason why she has heretofore re-
msined quiet, lay in the international
questions which, during the last fsw
years, have been continually cropping
out with regard to England, Germany,
Austria, Turkey, Afghanistan, and
Bulgaria; and SO it comes about that
now, when the situation in Europe
has become more peaceful, the time
has arrived for China to be on hel
guard and to take in hand In an ener
getic manner the protection OF he
boundaries.
The fear is upon us that Russia in
tends now to apply the mighty arma
ments she has had prepared for a cam
paign against the west in waflik
expedition toward the east.-St. Jane
