The journal of Miss Mary Grace Thorn
ton, daughter of the British ambassador,
describing the coronation Of the late car
Of Russia, is printed in The Century. Miss
Thornton writes: We saw n beautiful
stretch of this picturesque town yesterday
from the terrace of the Kremlin, the river
below running between its white quays
and beyond lines and lines of green rooted
houses, broken continually by the darker
clumps OF trees in some charming Moscow
garden or by the shining cupolas and
spires of the famous Moscow churches
And yet, with its charm of an existence
of centuries, Moscow seems to me to pos
sess very little of the quiet of age. In the
churches, for instance, some of the art is
so barbaric as to carry one straight back
to dark days 1t is impossible to escape
from historical associations Of ignorance
and cruelty as one might in some western
town, and begin to think that 1t is be-
cause the Russians themselves are not en-
tirely removed from the superstition and
despotism of that time. The contrast is
less, the association easier to call up, till
every bit of the Moscow of today is strik-
ing by what 1t suggests. Even from the
beautiful Kremlin terrace one sees the rush
Of wild Tartars up the Slopes, the quiet
summer day is full of noiso and whore
ones foot now presses the soft green grass
the ground is rcd with blood.

The democratic free silver managers
claim with great confidence that they
will be able to muster at Chicago a clear
two-thirds majority for free silver, thus
doing away with any necessity for the
change of the time honored two-third
rule for the nomination for the presiden-
tial candidates. 1t is understood that
the territories and the District of Col
umbia will each be allowed six delegates
in the convention, thus making its total
membership 9lS, of whom AGO will be a
majority and Gl2 a two-thirds majority,

they will have beyond shadow of a

The dry season can be called practically
closed. During the last - days 1t has
been raining steadily. In Havana the

been heavy. 1t is said that the Maiana
swamp, forming the southern section of
the trocha from Mariel, has overlooked

had been made have all disappeared. In
consequence of this state of things the
military operations on the Spanish side
have come to standstill. All the troops
are cooped up in the towns. The in

the truth, but although no accurate
data can be obtained it is known that the
malady has extended all over the island
and that the death rate is very great.

The question as what was the matter
with General Bragg during the session of
the late indianapolis convention is one
that eNcites considerable interest at this
time? A dispatch to the Washington Post
from Indianapolis on the I'd inst, said:
at is not at all certain that Gen. Bragg
will be the nominee (for Presidency. He
was not present at the session of the con-
vention this afternoon, and rumors flew
thick and fast to the effect that he was in
no condition to be present. Ever since
the convention adjourned, there has been
II serious consultation among the leaders
as to his personal habits, and the assur-
ances of his Wisconsin friends have not
been sufficient to entirely eradicate n dis
agreeable impression His namesake,
Capt Bragg, of Buena Vista fame, was
called on by General Taylor to give the
MeXicans "a little more grape" Surely
the Wisconsin Bragg had not been '.mon-
keying" with grape juice or Kentucky
corn on the occasion referred to!
