ATTACKING THE DOCTORS.
Blind Rage OF the Starving Peasants
in Russia.

Advices received from the Government of
Voronezh. Russia, show that affairs in that
part of the famine-stricken districts are
going from bad to worse. The peasants have
become exasperated by their sufferings from
hunger and disease, and have turned their
resentment against the doctors for the
failure of the latter to effect cures. This
same course was followed during the
cholera epidemics, and the doctors, having
before them the memory Of the fate of the
physicians in the cholera years, have fed in
terror from the ignorant peasantry. In
many villages in Vorouezh the military
have been called upon to suppress the dis
orders. In one Instance the Zemski
Natchalnik appealed to the military to pre-
serve order in his district, whereupon the
peasants sent deputation to him. with
intirnation that if the soldiers touched a
single person vengeance would be wrealSed
upon NJ. Natchalnik himself; his house
would be burned, and he and the members
of his family would be killed. Troops had
been sent in response to the request of the
Zeuski, but the threats of the deputation
had such effect upon him that he was glad
TO ask the officer in charge of the troops to
depart quietly with his command.
