There were a number OF US in one of
the London taverDs made famous by
Dickens, when great big fellow
slouched in and made himself very dis
agreeable wi III his mouth. One of our
party was man from Boston, and in
some way or other he and the big man
camo to exchange words. The first
we heard OF the row the big man was
saying:
tYou Yankees is grea; on the brag,
and that's all you can do"
"Well, | dunno" replied Boston.
"But J. do. When did you ever do a
blooming, bIaratod thing?"
"How about l776?"
"Nover heard of it,"
GLOW about 1922"
"Never heard Of it,"
Did you ever hear Of Bunker

81 have sir. That's whore 600 red
coats licked the life out Of 1000 brag-
ging Yankees!"
81 guess not"
Not! Does you dare to dispute the
Liverpool Kid?"
"You'd better read what shistory
says"
II have done that 'ere, you bloom,
ing idiot, and it says as how all you
Yankees run at the first fire! Don't it
now?n
81 nevor heard tnatit did"
Don't it say that3"
1he big fellow had pushed UP his
sleeves and put up his fists, and it was
plain tnat row was on hand. He
! was big enough to eat up two sUch
men as Boston, while he had friends
to look out for the rest of us. Our
companion therefore took the most
prudent course, and acknowledged that
history might say SO and pre- badly did
say so. This satisfied tho big fellow,
and he turned away and glared at a
Frenchman, also tourist, who had
como in later. After a long stare he
walked up to the Crapoo and shouted
Blast yer blooming parley vous,
| but we've always licked ye out Of yer
boots on land and sean
you speak Won big lie!" shouted
the Frenchman, hot in minute.
"What? Call The Liverpool Kid a
liar to his facet"

jiffy, danced around with his hand,
up, and to our utter astonishment the
Kid went right down into his boots
and skunk out of the room, having nc
more pluck than hen. We sat there
for five minutes before any one spoke
Then it was the Boston man who
said:

| Of the province of Armour, in whicn
the Kara mines are situated. These
orders directed that the secret edict
Of March; 1883, signed by 3alkine
Vraski, director General Of the prison
for the empire, should be enforced.
This edict was to the effect that polit-
ical convicts should be treated by pris,
on officials in precisely the same man
nor as criminals condemned for COM
mon law offences. Political prisoners
were thus made liable to flogging for
breaches of prison discipline. In what
particular way Madame Sigida had
transgressed the prison rules is not
clearly explained, But the flogging
of sensitive and cultured woman to
death for any lack Of conformity to
prison regulations Stepniak thought
would impress the Western world
with profound horror.
The political prisoners at Kara, Step
MAX said, had in some way learned
that the political eXiles imprisoned at
Saghalien had also been subjected to
cruel flogging. They were constantly
in dread of similar torture TO that in
tilcted upon Madame Sigida.
FLOGGING ORDERED BY THE GAR
SlopI'lak was aSKCu Wnetner he
thought the car, in view Of the fact
that the exceptional horrors at Kara
had been made public, would mitigate
the severity OF prison discipline in the
case Of political conVicts. He replied
that he thought it was not unlikely
that the publication Of the facts would
force the superior officials Of Russia to
take some notice of ailnirs, but he
said flogging and al other brutalitics
were entirely due to the direct orders
of the central government at st. Pc
tcrsburg, namely, the cdict Of March,
1883 The government was, therefore,
directly responsible for the renewal of
the corporal punishmont of political
prisoners, which had been suspended
in 1877 after Trcpon ordered Bogolu-
boll' to he logged.

BosToN, Mass, Feb. 20.-In his lee

upon the dead editor, Henry w. Grady.
He said: 81 think Boston ought not to
cheer treason. Mr.. Grady was man
Of genius. and he is now in his grave,
but his principles are not in their
grave, and therefore l take the occa-
sion to say that since Southern Sen
ator threatened to call the roll of his
slaves on Bunker Hill, nothing has
to"n said much more atrociously in
sullng 20 Northern sentiment than
the affirmation Of tho Southern orator
before bis Boston audience, that even
if the nation were to put forth its
whole military power, the South
would yet tramplo on the newest par
agraphs Of the Constitution. That Is
calling the roll of slaves on the
heights Of the political Constitution
itself, and the slaves are those who
cherish such political sentiment"
