A New Luxury in Russia.
From the New York Ledger.

From the New York Ledger.
The school children of Russia have recently
been made very happy by having beds put in
their bed rooms and large dormitories. In
Russia nearly all the boys at least and very
many girls are sent to boarding schools and
colleges. And SO many years of their lives are
passed in studying. eating and sleeping away
from home.
Until recently beds were quite unknown in
Russia, save as a luxury for the higher classes.
The peasants slept on top of their big bake
ovens for warmth. The soldiers slept upon
hard cots without bedding, while the middle
classes of people and the students rolled them
selves in blankets and lay down near stoves.
Recently, however, all the children in the
boarding schools and all the scholars in the
colleges have been awarded beds by special and
general agreement.
Russian children have never had cradles,
cribs, cots or beds.

OF all our various acts of superficial conscious
ness.
=. How we are to explain our consciousness Of
time as distinct from any knowledge of dura-
tion-and, indeed, that we have in sleep any
knowledge OF duration we see no clear evil
dence, a very short time often appearing to us
very long if it is crowded with a multiplicity of
impressions, and long time often appearing
very short il q single impression has persisted
throughout-we do not know, but that there is
some transcendental power Of discerning the
time without external sounds to guide us we feel
no doubt. OF course there are plenty of cases
where the power fails Indeed, another writer
in the same number of the Journal gives us a
long list of failures and Of failures unexpected
by himself. But the experience of success is
too common in all classes persons to be
accidental. Indeed, the present writer NAV
assign the present article as a consequence Zone
Of very many Of the power Of waking at the
exact hour desired, an hour which is often
varied in accordance with the urgency of the
case, SO that it cannot be ascribed to the habit
of waking at exactly the same hour. 1t is a
very curious power, for which We can assign no
parallel. We certainly have no similar power
of waking ourselves on journey at any exact
point in space on which we may previously de-
termine. If we resolve to wake up at the mo-
ment the express train in which we are travel
ing passes particular point from which, sup
pose, a striking landscape is visible, we should
not manage it unless the train were SO punctual
that we could effect it by determining to waken
at the precise minute when the train was due
there, though in that way we believe it might
occasionally be effected But there are multitudes
of persons who appear 10 carry some kind of
clock about with them in their inner mind:
though whether it be the clock of the house or
the clock Of the neighborhood it would be well
to find out.
In the present writers case it is not the clock
Of the house which is kept fast, but. as near as
he can judge, what he believes to be right time;
