The Russian Peasant.

1t is asserted by those who have
lived among them that the lowest
types Of modern European civilization
are probably the Russians. While
writer's and travellers vary as to the
future Of Russia nearly all are agreed
as to the utter degradation at present
Of the Russian peasant. He Is always
on the verge of starvation and is abb
solutely improvident, while his gross
and complete ignorance is combined
with the most extravagant supersti-
ton. Like all low natures, he Is thor
oughly distrustful Of reform, and as a
climax to bis infirmities he Is con-
firmed drinker.
Middle class in Russia there Is prac-
tically none. The small shoIkeepers
combine exorbitant charges with
shameful usury. Manufacturers and
producers are nearly all foreigners,
and the larger trade Of the country is
chiefly in German hands. Education
may after the lapse of several genera
tons remove the inherent dullness OF
this people, but it will be no easy mat
ter to root out evils which are the
growth of centuries of serfdom and
distress.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Here we exchanged some of our

by way of giving credit where it is

venient, cheap and cashable where
eyer we presented them.
We next visited St. Paul's Cathed-

beneath it's splendid dome and for
awhile rested and worshiped. To
