 Now is it not important that we should feel right toward that mighty, that God given friend of more than one hundred years? Yea, because it is nation of more possibilities than any other except our own should we cultivate it's friend ship. There is vast realm of Russia as yet unoccupied. If the population of the rest of Europe were poured into Russia, it would be only partially occupied After awhile America will be so well populated that the tides of emigration will go the other way and by railroads; from Russia at Behring straits-where Asia comes within thirty-six miles of joining America-millions of people will pour down through Russia and Siberia, and on down through all the regions waiting for the civilization of the next century to come and culture great har- vests and build mighty cities. What the United States now are on the western hemisphere Russia will be on the east ern hemisphere. Not only because of what Russia has been to our republic, but because of what she will be, let us cease the defamation of all that pertains to that great empire. If Russia can af- ford to be the friend of America, Amer ica can afford to be the friend of Russia And now proceed to do what told the emperor and the empress, and all the i'm A- s1~xz T Al Tl-L Lof I would do if I eyer got back to America, and that Is to answer some of the calumnies which have been an- nounced and reiterated and stereotyped against Russia.

we electrocute him, or choked to death by halter as we choke him to death. Russia Is the only country on earth from which the death penalty has been driven, except in case of high treason. Mur- derers and desperate villains are sent to the hardest parts of Siberia, but no man is sent to Siberia or doomed to any kind of punishment in Russia until he has a fair trial. So far as their being hustled off in the night and not knowing why they are exiled or punished is concerned all the criminals in Russia have an open trial before jury just as we have in America, except in revolutionary or riot ous times, and you know in America :: E such times the writ of habeas corpus is suspended. There are in Russia grand juries and petit juries and the right to challenge the jurors, and the prisoner confronts his accuser, and, mark this, as ln no other country, after prisoner has been condemned by juries and judges he nay appeal to the minister of the in terlor, and after that to the senate, and after that to the emperor, who is con- stahtly pardoning.
 AS said, the violent and murderous are sent to the hardest part of Siberia, but the more moderate criminals to more propitious parts of Siberia, and those who have only a little criminality to parts of Siberia positively genial for climate, for you ought to know, if you do not know, that Siberia is so large and wide and long that it reaches from frig- idity to torridity, from almost arctic blast to climate as mild as that of Italy. Run your finger along the map of the world, and you will find that the lowest part of Siberia is on the forty fifth de- gree of latitude, and the richest part of Italy is on the same forty-ffth degree of latitude, so that Siberia reaches from the furs at the north to the palm leaf fans at the south. It has been demon strated that ninety per cent. of the Rus sian criminals colonized into Siberia go into a climate milder than New York--a land s9ugful with birds and embroidered Sith RorA- Anough RnnieslA ta Sa1sesHA

a PARTY of rice planters from
Lou;eiana are visiting Houston with
view to establishing rice mill in
that city. Such an enterprise should
be given every encouragement. Texas
has a great deal of land suitable for
rice culture, and il rice mills were
convenient so that the crop could be
handled, a large acreage of it would
be planted. 1t is to be hoped that
Houston will sieze this opportunity.

TRADE REVIEW.

MANCHESTER, Jan. 6,-The Guard
ian, in its commercial article, says:
Buyers and sellers are unsettled in
consequence of the sudden, drop in
cotton at Liverpool, and the belief is
that the bottom has not been reached.
The slackness in demand extends to
most of the cloth departments. Buy
ers withhold important orders and
sellers accept offers which have pre-
viously been refused. Some sales of
shirtiugs have been made at the low
est prices known for upwards of forty
years. Yarns are fiat. The inquiry
for India and China is light, and there
is little pressure to sell. The tone OF
the market is in favor of buyers.
