Russian Children.

What are our children like3 Like
ladies and gentlemen from the time
| they can speak. Instead of waiting
| for a child TO get old enough for
school, IS you say here, we provide q
governess, and from the very begin
| ming the little one is taught respect
obedience, politsness and language
| In Russia & child Is never permitted
to kiss the parents except on the hand
| He will never presume to examine Or
use any Of their private belonging gs
without first getting permission, and
at the entrance of either into q roGE.l
the child rises, offers his chair with
as much Difference as though III the
presence Of sovereign, and will re
main standing until told to be seated.
At table the children are considered
last and after the meal each one
thanks the parent for it before leaving
the dining room. Aud do you know
what the result is3 Such life long &c
votion and reverence as few American
parents ever receive. Here the old
people are shamefully neglected,
thrust out Of sight, and receive little
! moro consideration than the servants.
Old mothers and fathers i'll my coun-
try have the best rooms, the incest
clothes, the choicest dishes from
the kitchen and every day they arc
visited by the children and grondchil-
dren and entertained and favored. In
the evening no one is seated before
the aged, and the daughter or guest
who plays or sings always cOnsults
their choice.

ABOUT COMPLETED.
THg RAILROAD TUNNELS PRACTICALLY
READY FOB THB TRACKS.
Present Status Of ,hs Work-Work On the Bridge
S1psrs,ucure, and Over IN Mar
TINS Ferry.

In very few days more the tunnels Of
the Wheeling Bridge and Terminal Rail
way Company viii be completed. In the
shorter tunnel, which rams from the Top
mill through the bill to Jonathan's
rayine, the excavation has been completed
for some time, and q force Of men sre at
work on the open cuts, at either end, tax
ing down Overbanging rock aud sloping of
the earth to sach an angle as will insure
freedom from slips. This job will be
completed during the present week, in all
probability, and then the tunnel will be
ready for the track. Ia the long tunnel
there is small amount Of elrth
and rock remaining about the
center, which gang is Teduc-
ing day by Day. The tim
beriug in this tunnel was completed SAtur-
day and yesterday, and as soon as the re-
mains Of the bench" are cleaned away,
the services of the force of workmen will
be no longer needed at that point. A
considerable quantity Of water, drained
from the old coal banks, has accumulated
at the centre Of the long tunnel, but as
soon as the earth referred to is removed
the water will run out toward the creek. 1t
is.uOw possible to walk through both tun-
nels, nom the Top mill to and over the
new bridge across the creek and out onto
the Peninsula, without inconvenience, and
the tour is a very interesting one.
At the railroad bridge, Baird Bros. have
about got things in readiness TO hoist iron
for the supsrstructure Of the first span, be-
tween piers Nos. and >, and the derricks
will soon be at work. The false work for
this span has been topped with huge
travelling frame designed to facilitate the
handling Of the immense masses Of iron and
steel, the top Of this frame being nearly
one hundred feet from the level Of the
"PeWiky" railroad track. No attempt
has yet been made to commence the false
goIk for the spans west Of the channel
span, owing probably to the high water in
the river. Neither has any attempt been
made to remove the false work from the
east half Of the channel span, for the same
reason.
Over in Martins Ferry the stone masons
are at work on the piers and abntments
outside the bed of the river, and the masses
OF masonry can be seen towering up from
among the houses in the vicinity. Rail
road iron is also arriving on that side OF
the river, and will be laid down as soon as
a rad bed can be prepared for its recep-
ton. Grading and filling is being rapidly
completed Ground the hill, and the road
bed will soon be ready for the iron and
ties.

which had been hidden in the top of an
old clothes press or closet. Upon opening
the box they discovered small bag con-
