Russian journalists seem to nave
very primitive notions on the subject
of the commercial conduct or theiS
newspapers. They appear to take
very little pains to get their Journ' Is
properly distributed; and small local
circulation seems to represent the
height of their commercial ambitions.
A few Of the best class journals, sucn,

When in this state II is devoid OF stick
