Some London firms are again circulating
alarming reports about the American mar

Hihilism in Russia.

Notwithstanding tho persistent
efforts OF the officers of the Gar to
break up Nihilism in his domains, it
appears that the society is increasing
rapidly, drawing largely from those
near the throne. Under the circum-
stances it is no wonder that the Gar
is almost crazy, or lingering between
insanity and fear. He has not the
courage to lift load off his subject,
and is too big a coward to die. If he
would do justice to his people he
might live happily to good old age,
