ST.. PETERSBURG, Sept. 22.-Reports
Irom Iambov and adjacent provinces an
nounce that the Zemstves has provided
Tor the resolving of land and to furnish
supplies of grain until January next.
After that date there will be the greatest
difficulty to insure food for the people.
AS the collection of taxes is impossible
the salaries of the local administrative
bodies have been suspended. The scarcity
OF oats and hay is compelling farmers to
sell live stock at mock prices.
Destitution is also staring in the face a
large number of people who have been
employed on the public works, as work
upon the latter must stop when the frosts
set in. The masses rely entirely upon
the Government to help them. This be-
ing the state OF affairs in the present mild
weather, the gloomy prospects held out
by the coming of winter can be readily
imagined. Atan extraordinary meeting
