HE GREAT FAIR 0 NtJNI NOVGOROD. analated from the German Illustrated Gazette. In an immense, almost entirely flat country, ke Russia, the trallic by land must be ot lm- ense Importance. Almost all the Internal ade is carried on by land; besides which the issiau Empire entertains a very active coni- unication with Asia by means of caravans, lich bring the products of China and the East lies. The inland trade) in the South is lefly effected by means of wagoug, which, awn by oxen, are seen slowly moving across steppes throughout summer and winter, e difliculties ot the river navigation are the 3on that products and merchandise are ostly brought in this manner to Odessa, though the land route, on accountof the heavy iow storms in winter, is not without danger, (.'enerally, intercourse in Russia takes place iring the winter season by means of sleighs. boon as the winter has spread a hard, nooih surface ot snow over the plains, the eighs rush with whirling rapidity over lakes, veis, and motasses, always in aireci lines, ilhout the least reeard to the regular roads. hus in Archangel duilng the winter are seen ousHUds of Meigbs from oil portious of the niptre, bnueing to mat city eiderdowns, rs, tallow, wax, ana tnues, wuicu are piarea "here in large storenouses, in oruer 10 oe cx yited by sea during the summer seaseu; by le same conveyance the t'overnment in St. tersburg receives the costly product or the ines of the Ural Mountains. Ot great import ice to the inland trade aro the rivers, most of hich are navigable at least during a part of fie year. The Volga in particular is covered itti an Kinds ot cratt. rue long interruption It river navigation during the wiuter is, how .er. a very great drawback; besides which Ye outlets of many of the rivers, like thoe of e Dnieper and Doe, are obstructed by sand, like that ot the Hug, Duna, and fllcmel, reti red unnavieable in their lower course by )Cks. In connection with the rivers the canals ust be mentioned. There is perhaps no her country where so many canals have been nstructcd as lu Russia. Three canals connect the ri-vprs of Nova and olga, of which oue is the gigantic work ot eter the Great, rue obstacles, caused nere md there by the insullicient supply ef water, ave been removed witu aannraDie industry. Is soon as a fleet ot merchant ships approaches Sie administration ot the canals eives notice by leans ot the telearraph, and witbin an mcredi- ly short time the basins are failed to their ut- Jiost capacity by ir.eaus ot flood gates. In a ountry where the internal trade is of such romincnt importance, tairs must ot necessity flay a greai part. The dillerent lairs which lake place in liunsia are far more important, na have an mtireiv aiiiereut origin ironi inoae which still exist in other countries. The latter. lor the most part, date from niedueval times, and re based ou what are caned tair privileges, Vhich were granted to certain localities, and ur C.xea periods, in oraer 10 giveio purcnasers onie protection anainst the encroachments of he home merchants, and to enliven commerce y competition. In the interior of Russia, where the restric ions and other impediments to free trade auseJ by the privileges of guilds, never existed, md where whoever is once settled in the Wmpire has the right to carry on whatever lusiness or trade he may judge proper, such Isylums ot commerce, like the regular lairs in he cities of the continent, were not necessary, and the large assemblies ot merchants were isuaiiy causeu oy large concourse 01 Olivers. Mlgrimages, on certain holidays, to celebrated oinbs or images ot saints, quite naturally brought together pilgrims and merchants. The r. .r. , i ... i i lit li lull iiJI'iLAll ', r. ll'o. t VI c ipJll luiili y v, 1 1 iv-1 uuciu'i lui nii i.biut; ales encouraced trades people,to repair to such laces. Thus, beside the original pilgrims, kere soon cougregatad a large number of other eoyle, led by the desire to improve the oppor unity offered, and if the political and geogra phical conditions were favorable, often an ini- Lortaut fair was thus established, which made people entirely forget the original religious pur pose which had originallv led to their assem- fuliner. This was the origin of the great fairs Jof ltomni, Makariew, Kursis, Charkow and ioine others. The celebrate 1 fairs of Europe, such as thoe !of Loipsic and Frankfort, in (lermany, Novi md Civitt vecchia, in Italy, Lyons and St. Etienne, in France, and several others which were founded on mediu-val wants, have become Jin our times when most of the restrictions oi' commercial intrcourse, and particularly the privileges and mnnuuities of cities aud towns, have been abolished of greatly loss import ance; ana in an prooaouuy, irom tne general adoption of the principles of free trade by the Drlncinai wiate or curope, mey win granuany entirely disappear, becauseon account of the ex- Eeuse and 1 lie distance wuien doiii sellers and avers are obliged to make to reach them, they are no longer the most natural and cheapest mode of exchanging products and commodities. But in Kussia, where customs and habits are entirely dillerent, commission business is as yet very little developed, andyconsequeutly buyers and sellers are obliged to meet each other per sonally, especially as a ortuin nomadic ele ment still uervades the commercial relations of the country, many of the merchants havinar no settled estabiisomeuts, out move witn tueir stock of merchandise from one place to another. Iu liuBsla there is no posiointy or a generul correspondence between the numerous popula tions ot various origin which occupy its ex tensive territory. Consequently, mauy atlaiis which in other countries are treated by corres pondence, mr.st be managed there orally by the perfonal meeting of thu parties, so thfct the fairs are Lot only in a highly flourishing condition, but with the increasing development of commerce they are likely to become every year more important and more extensive. Among the various large fain of Russia. tliB oldest mid most celebrated is that of Nijnl Novgorod, or of Makarien, us it is still called by the Russian merchants, aft"r its former seat. It is, without any doubt, the laivest fair in Enrope, and probably in the world at least In renard to the amount of merchandise aud the number ot people who congregate there from all parts of Eastern Europe anil Western Asia, purine the months of July and August, ut least 300.HO0 people visit the fair. ' The whole sur reiiudiiiif country is covered with booths. f Kvrry cl's of tnen-hiiti.li.sP, surli m dry co.ls, ', furs, leather, objects ol metal, china, woolen and earthen waie, eatables, et-., occupy a sepa rate place or booth. The booths which are destined for the leetption ol merchandise ore constructed of wood or of stone; the latter re main through the wlmlc year. Those constructed of wood i land in the public sq-mres, and are verysoacious; licsi les the store rooms, thev Usually contain smaller ones, des tined for the despatching of busines-, and in the background are places for wagons, boxes, and other uion-tK As has already been observed, in all the Ru Man fairs racn kind of eoorts is placd in differ ent rows of hooiba which, according to the mer chandise they contain, are called the "Max," or "ironware," or "glassware" booths; some bear the names of the nationalities to which the mer chants belong, as, forinstaticp, the "Armenian." the "(ireek' booths, etc. Certain sorts ol merchandise are brought to the fair and exhibited in sleighs, so that whole rows of them are seen ranged in order, the tinders sitting on them and .doing busiuess without even being protected b tents or awn ings against the inclemency of the weatlier. Among the merchandise of a Russian fair there arc niBny articles peculiarly Russian, aud unknown in other countries; some of them, which nre found in the other European mar kets in small quantity, are hero stored up in immense masses to supply the wants of the Eastern populations, while generally good are nssottpd on-na entirely dillerent system from that usual In other countries; the way of pack ing, exhibiting, and storing away the wares is also quiie peculiar. It is extremely iiiteresting even for the mere spectator to walk about in this immense empo rium, w here buyers and sellers resort from all puits of Russia, and from many distant regions of Europe and Asia, to observe the variegated dresses of so many uations, their different Ian puiijes, and various customs and hnblts. No stranger will leave the celebrated fairofNijni Novgorod without conceiving great respect of the extensive comniprse of Kussia, which, under the enlightened; government of the pre sent Emperor is every year increasing more aud more. Art'ldeuta of Speech. Pat has long labored under the imputation of making more "accidents" with the tongue than any ot his lellow-mortals, but it can be verv readily shown that the "bull" is not necessarily indigenous to Irihh soil. A Frenchman named Calion, who died lu Pane not many years ago. was remarkable for a bovine tendency. There is a letter of- his in existence as follows: "My dear friend I left my knife at your lodffings yesterday. Pray send it lo me if you Bud it. Yoursj ration. P. 8. Never mind sending the knife; I have found it." There is a note to his wife, which he sent home with a basket ol provisions; the postscript to Viliich read: "You will And my letter at the bottom of the basket. If you snould fail to do so, let mo know as soon as possible." It Is said of this same character that on one occasion he took a lighted laper to find his way down stairs without accident, and after getting down brought it hack- with thanks, leaving himself at the top of the Ftairs .in the dark us at first. It vn a Scotchwoman who said that the butcher oi her town only killed halt a beast at a time. It was a Dutchman who said a pig had no ear marks except a short tail; and it whs a British magistrate who, being told by a vaga bond that he was not married, responded, "That's a good thins lor your wile." At a prayer meeting in New Hampshire, a worthy layuian spoke ot a poor boy whose father was' a drunkard, and whose mother was a widow. At a negro ball, in lieu of "Not transferable" on the tickets a notice was posted over the door: "No gentleman admitted unlets he comes hbseif." An American lecturer of note solemnly said one evening: "Parent, you may have children, or, if you have rot, your daut; liters may have." A Western editor once wrote: "A corres pondent asks whether the battle of Waterloo oc curred before or after the commencement of the Christian era. We answer it did." A Maine editor says a pumpkin in that State gvew so large that eight men could stand around it ; w hich statement was only equalled by that ot the hoosicr who saw a Hock of inueons fly so low that he could shake a stick at them. Those two oliservin! men, one ol whom said that he had always" noticed when he lived through the mouth of May he lived through the year, aud the other of whom said at a wedding that he had remarked that more women than men bad been married that year, were neither of them lrithmeL.. Elopements, divorces, and crimes are .-o numerous that the New York Nun thinks the whole contiuent is lnconti- ent. Criminals in Chicago seem to have the sym pathy ot the judges and grand juries. Obli quity of vision. A crusty bachelor objects to chambermaids because they use more hair oil thau any six men. The C. O. I. Ii. never had his pUolo?rtiph taken in Ireland, though his head has ior some time been yery much wanted there. The Paris papers hnvebeen indulging iu a sharp - criticism of the fr'rench budget. Tuey , think Fould has fooled the empire. The spring terra in Yale College began on Thursday. The lire-bells in Montreal gave notice ot the new year by btrikiog 18ii7. The present style of Coiffure is styled Cbig-noii-btue. America has OO.UUO miles of telegraph lines; Europe, C0.UOO. The Concord (X. II.) Monitor aud lmlepm dent JJrmocrat have united their fortunes.
