Education in Russia.

Through the rapid growth ot
 Russian power in Europe and in the
 tar East we have presented great
 collision of moral forces embodied tn
 the civilizations respectively of the
 empire of the Czar and of Great
 Britain. says the Independent. This
 spectacle imparis special interest to everything by which the tendencies of
 Russian influence may be gagged Is IL \ power making for darkness or for
 lightP The educational test is not an unfair one, and certainly in the two departments of technical and of diplo- matic training Russia may give lessons to the world. But what does her supremacy promise for popular enlighi-nmrnip The answer is sng- gesied by her illitcrate population, seventy per cent of the total. More impressive yet is the dark cloud that settles down upon provinces that have been or are in the process of being Russianized.
 A few decades since the Baltic provinces had excellent schools, aud in Courland especially instruction was general. Now many of the peasants. the children and grandchildren of literate parents. are unable to read aud write. because they are forced to learn the Russian language, which they do pot comprehend. In the interior of Russia it is estimated that there aro 5000 villages without schWlhouse, iu hundreds there are houses but no teachers. Besides. the snows and storms in winier are SO severe ,bst pupils often cappot reach ihe sch,1l. If one exists, for several days. Even in the spring, when the snows are melting, the roads are fre- quently impassablc. These causes with the innu,nerable holidays (i. S.. church and fets days). reduce schooi- ing [" a riiiculously short period. Iu St. Petersburg itself. where the con- ditions are vastly better, it is admitted that the schools are generally over crowfl..d ana iucnura,,i..utlc ,,l.cad and that from six thousand tO ten thousand children of school age are kept from instruction by the want of accommodation. The Mayor of the city has recently urged the necessity of a compulsory school law, while admitting, however. that there is no prospect of securing such measure.

The Diplomatic Corps is to life at the

come and ministers go, the kaleidoscope
changes add spice and excitement.
The Turkish legation cannot fail TO be
of especial interest just now, that the
Ottoman empire is thrashiDg her poor little

interest, too, if there was a Greek legation,
but there is none. There has been none
since Mr. Gennatiius took himself off IN

announcement of his recall 10 the State

will be one directly Greece has enough

on a small scale at the Capital Of the United
States, is not cheap.

James Barnes in entering the lists as a

had TO history to give substantiauon or
the seInbiance thereof 10 fiction the COM
binatioG is even more agreeable tnan I'M

this consideration. and it is this happy
choice Of material allied to his own gifts
of STORYTELLING which recommends his
books to all lovers of wholesome, absorb
ing and withal instructive stories.

There are Six OF them. In substance
they were earlier delivered in Trinity Col

OF facts. the first is devoted to precursors
Of the Revolutions: Englishmen of let

tendency was tow ard the evolution OF
liberty, personal expression. and the
enthronement of nature and reason. The
second is devoted TO the theorists OF the
Revolution; the third TO the anti-Reyoln-
tionists, and Edmund Burke, naturally, as
one OF the greatest OF the cOntributory
influences; the fourth to the early Reyo
lutionary group and antagonists, Southey,
