LIFE IX RUSSIA. Aii entertaining work (has just been published in England, entitled “Sketch es of Eussian Life Before and During the Emancipation of the Serfs!” In this book tlie character of the Bussiin priests is not portrayed in very attractive colors; but tho following is a good s)ory of a gamb ling ecclesiastic, who sat up all Saturday night over the cards, dear to almost all Bussians, playing with two other priests and an Englishman, till it was time for morning service: THE PRIEST AND HIS CARDS. I cannot say these men were drunk; on the contrary, they seemed moresobev than they had been when I left them at two o’clock; but the demon of play held them in his grip; they were as fresh for it and as absorbed as if they had only played two or three hours. My remon strances and expostulations were thrown away, and in indignant curiosity I sat down to watch the end. The priest and his partner lost. Pins and his partner won another fifty. The next game 'was to be double or quits, the deal made with a fresh pack: and as I sat in full view of the tall priest I could see his face brighten up, and a look of intel ligence pass between him and his part ner. At this moment the decchock again entered. “ Three minutes to eight o'clock.” All but the tall priest threw their cards on the table and rose, saying, “ A fresh deal after service.” “ No, no,”' he said, “ keep your hand, partner; I shall keep mine; it is a good one; and we shall play the game after our return. Here, vassilia, give me a towel, wet; that will do. Now my robes —there —that comb; and now go every one to your posts. I shall be there pres ently.” Thus saying, he proceeded with a firm step to the church by a private en trance. As he left the room I saiV him place his good hand of. cards within his sacred robes under the inside fastening.— He was evidently determined not to lose sight of his trumps, and carried them off on his person into the church. I ran round to the front entrance, and was just in time to witness the commencement of the service. It is a wonder judgment did not fall on the chief priest. And it did in a way. At onepartof the service, just as he was stepping on the platform, he put his hand inside his robe to pull out his handkerchief, and as he drew it out the cards came also, unbidden, and fell scattered over the altar floor. This would have paralyzed any ordinary man, but that pi'ect i eve .■ winced for a moment. — He looked coclly at the cards, then stead ily at the people, as much as to say, “ You all see that: take notice of it. I shall tell you about that by-and-by.” He then con tinued the services. At the close he point ed to the cards—then beckoned a little peasant boy, with a shock head of white flaxen hair, dressed in a shirt of course linen and trousers to match, not very clean, who had been crossing and bend ing beside a poor peasant woman, his mother. “ Come here, boy!” The boy went. Turning to the congre gation, the priest said: “I shall give you a lesson you will not forget for some time. You see those cards lying on the floor. Do you think I put them there for nothing? We shall see. What is your name, my boy? “ Peter Petrovitoh, go and pick up one of those cards you see on the floor, and brlugitto me. There, that will do. Now tell me, Peter Petrovitoh, what card is this?” The ace of spades,” said the boy with ready knowledge. “Verygood, Peter Petrovitoh. Bring me another, that's a good boy. "What card is that?” “The queen of spades," said Peter. “ How well you know them, Peter Pe trovitoh! Bring another. And what may that one be ?” “ The ten of hearts.” “ That will do, Peter, the sou of Peter. Now turn round and look at this picture. Can you tell me whatsaintitrepresents?” The boy scratched his head, then shrug ged his little shoulders, lifting them up to his ears, then scratched his head again and again, and said: “Ya naes nigh.” (I don’t know.) “Now look at this one. Who is this?” The same answer. “ Ard this?” “I cannot toll.” “ That will do, Peter, the son of Peter. You may go to your mother." Turning to the people, he continued: “ Do you know nowfor what purpose I put those cards on the floor? Do you not think shame of yourselves, tell me? Say, is it not disgraceful and scandalous that that nice white-haired boy can tell me in a moment the name of every card in the pack, and yet he does not know the name of one of the blessed saints? O, shame! shame on ye! so to bring up the young, after all the good teaching I have given ye! Go away and learn the Issson I have given you this blessed day; don’t forget it, and don’t force me to bring cards into this holy place again. Vassilla, pick up the other cards, and keep them for me.” So with solemn step ho lett the church to play out his Interrupted game for the hundred roubles. H«re is another quite amusing Russian story, entitled— TUB HONEST THIEF. There once live'd in St. Petersburg an aged man, who though poor, had always been noted for strict honor and integrity, and whose whole course of life was reg ular as clock-work. Each morning he left his modest dwelling precisely at the same hour, passedthrougn the old-clothes’ JEALOUSY. market to his bureau, and after six hours' labor was accomplished returned home by the self-same route. His gar ments were shabby from long service, and the covering on hiscap was worn to shreds. The urgent solicitations of his daughters finally induced him to replace the latter article; and seeing some of green color one day in a shop window, he went in and inquired the price. The shopman, how ever, refused to sell them, on the pica that they were already bespoke, and offered to show him others of a different hue; but the old man had set his heart on green. “Well, then,” said the man, “If you must absolutely have it, take It, and If needed I can finish another by to-morrow to take its place.” The baragain was accordingly conclu ded, and the next day no small excite ment was created by the appearance of the cap, which elicited from his colleag ues smiling congratulation upon his suc cessful purchase. Two days afterward, the heat being In tense In the bureau, he felt in his pocket for his handkerchief, in order to wipe the perspiratiau from his face, and ho drew lorth, to his great astonishment, one of fine India foulord silk. He showed it to his colleagues, and Inquired if he had by mistake appropriated another person’s property.}-hut one and all disclaimed all knowledge of it, and agreed unanimously that it must he a surprise from one of his daughters. “ Children 1 ” said he, upon his return to his house, “ who done this? Do you wish to make me vain in my old age '! His daughters also declared their igno rance of the matter, and, after many ran dom guesses, finally made up their minds that it must have been put in his pocket by their cousin, who spent'the last Sun day with them; and the handkerchief was carefully put aside by their father. On the following day, as ho was care fully spreading his coat-tails in order to set himself at the desk, he felt something hard in both pockets, and putting in his hand, brought out from one a gold watch and from the otheraweii-furnished purse. This time his reason was overwhelmed ; but after long reflection ho formed a sud den resolution. He had been more punc tual than the other officials, and was alone in the room; he therefore determined to say nothing to them of his discovery, and as soon as the office hours were over lie went directly to the chief of the police and solicited a private audience. He then produced the wotch and purse, aud rela ted the history of the handkerchief. Af ter the chief had fully possessed himself of all the particulars, he said: "It is very singular! Has nothing of the kind ever happened to you before ?” " Never before last week.” " Have you made any -change in your dress within that time?” “No.” “ Eeeolieetl” “Oh yes, certainly! I bought a new cap!” “Tell me how and where you bought it.” The old man told him everything con nected with his purchase; upon which the chief laughed heartily, and' exclaim ed— “ Poor honest man that you are! you have become a member of a band of thiev es ! Do you not perceive ?, Their twenty caps of the same shape and color were to serve them as a mark for recognition: and as every pickpocket seeks to divest him self as quickly as possible of his stolen goods, they have taken you for an accom plice, and transferred these articles to your pockets. We are greatly indebted to accident and to you. Take this mon ey and buy another cap from one of the principle magazines: then bring this one back immediately; for as I hope to have the whole gang in my power to-morrow, you must not run the risk of being arres ted also.” The old man went into a shop and pur chased another covering for his head; but as he was about to tie up the cap in his handkerchief, in order to take it back to the police office, he found in the crown, to his no small surprise, a small piece of lace. He hastened to deliver this fresh booty into the hands of the chief, who again burst into a peal of laughter when he beheld the despairing countenance of the honest thief. The necessary measures were immedi ately taken. Two dozen detectives were made acquainted with the form of the caps; and simultaneously, at precisely the same hour, every possessor of the sign was placed in durance vile. The President in Philadelphia. AN ENTHUSIASTIC "RECEPTION 1 Honors to the Patriot President of the Republic. AX IMMENSE THRONG OF PEOW.E. The Philadelphia papers are full of the reception of President Johnson, in that place, on Tuesday last. There was an immense crowd of people and unbounded enthusiasm. Arrival of iho President. Patient waiting was at last rewarded. — A prolonged, sonorous whistle was heard and every-body exclaimed: “ He is com ing across Gtray’s Perry bridge," and eve ry-body was right that time, for a few minutes more and the train rumbled into the depot. The locomotive was decorated all over with flags,'and the third car in the train every-body in the depot set down as the President’s car because it bore placards on which appeared “ D. C., Maryland, Delaware,” the localities through which the train had passed- And every-body was right that time too. When the whistle was first heard, the army and navy officers, under the direc tion of General Meade and Commodore Hough, ranged themselves in line, first followed by the citizen committees. Colo nel Page had not forgotten his old days with the State Fencibles, so that with a voice as martial as any of his military brethren, he desired his committee (for he was Chairman) to “dress up.” Be tween the military and the citizens, the reporters took rank, each anxious to crys falize the words as they fell from the bps of Colonel Page, the spokesman of the occasion, when he advanced to receive the President. The train stopped, the throng on the platform all converged to the central point, from which the presi dent was to emerge, as he did soon, lean ing on the arm of Secretary Seward, Gen eral Grant followed, arm-in-arm with Ad miral Faragut. Then was the signal for cheering. The number was small in the depot, but they made the welkin ring with their shouts, which were taken up by the crowd outside, till they seemed of themselves a suficient welcome to the party accompanying the President. Out of chaos the police soon brought order, seemingly not caring whom they deprived of a sight of the President. General Meade introduced Colonel Page to the President as the representative of the Committee of Citizens, and after mutual bowings, Colo nel Page said: Speech of Colonel Page. Mr. President : In behalf of the citi zens of Philadelphia, without distinction of party, I cordially welcome you to the metropolis of Pennsylvania. [Applause.] This welcome is given in the name of the merchants, mechanics and manufac turers —its professional and laboring men —indeed, the men of all desses, who re* YOL. 63.—N0.. 12. cognize In you the distinguished head of a great nation, (applause) the chosen Chief Magistrate or a mighty and free people, and entitled as snch to all tho re spect and honor which it is in tiieir pow er to bestow, consistent with the simpli city and dignity of our republican insti tutions. [Applause.] In respecting and honoring you, they respect and honor themselves, whose representative you are, tho embodiment of their power, the guardian, protector, end defender, under the ConstitutionUnd laws which you have solemnly sworn to obey and enforce, of their rights and liberties. [Applause.] Mr. President, through mo these citi zens of Philadelphia offer you their hear ty congratulations upon the termination of the unhappy war which has cost us so much blood and treasure, and lias so fear fully desolated and laid waste a large por tion of our common country; their joy at tho return- of peace, when brother no longer contends with brother in armed and deadly conflict; and their sanguine hope that by‘wise, humane, and states manlike measures all sectional jealousies may be subdued and internal strifes for ever ended, love and harmony prevail throughout the length and breadth of the land, and a restored Union become, “now and forever, one and inseparable.” [Ap plause.] That you may be, in tho hands of Di vine Providence, tho' means of pouring oil upon tho troubled waters, and bring ing back to us the blessings and prosperi ty of peace, in fact as well as name, bind ing us together as one people, should be the prayer of all good and true men, who, rising superior to party feeling, are ready and willing tcymake any and every sacri fice for the common'good and the nation al welfare.' [Applause.] Mr. President, it is not my wish further to trespass upon your time after tho fa tigue you have undergone. There is bre vity and sincerity in what I have said.— Wishing you in the further continuance of your journey and the fulfillment of tho honorable mission you have in charge, every gratification and a safe and happy return to the capital, not only for your self, but tho patriotic brave and distin guished officers, military and civil', and all who accompany you, I again bid you welcome to our great city, and tender you the hospitalities of our people, spontane ous and outgushing, and hope they will beopilte as acceptable in the shape in which they are and will bo tendered to you, as if they came through tho more formal action of our municipal authori ties. [Applause.] Tho President stood in one unchanging attitude during the address, bending his head to each sentiment as he approved it. He was clad in black, and his dark eye looked tho speaker full in tho face as the address was delivered. His address was delivered in a very low—indeed, a conversational voice; so that his listeners were compelled to crowd closer together to hear him. He said: Speech of tlm President. Permit me simply to say—(but the gathering around him had not cheered enough yet. Loud cries of “ Hurrah for the President!” with deafening cheers, preventing him from proceeding for many moment?.) He resumed: Permit mo in response to what has just been said, to tender you my sincere thanks on my own part, and that of my companions, for the welcome I now receive. I hope you will believe me when I say that we appreciate the welcome extended to us by the citizens of Philadelphia. You have (addressing Colonel Page) made some allusion in your address, and the sentiments and wishes there expressed meet my hearty response of those associated with me on this occasion. [Applause.] Peace should he familiar, (as I under stand peace to be); it should be familiar ly adapted into the notions and feelings of the great people of Philadelphia. [Ap plause.] X trust that peace has come upon us—a permanent peace; I feel now that our people wish to learn war no more. [Ap plause.] We have had war enough ; we all now want to have peace. Let all remomber ance of the war bo past, and all influence I have as Chief Magistrate of this nation will be exerted towards sustaining and providing for peace, and for the resto ration of a distracted and divided Union. [Great applause.] The Presiderifal party, the army and naval guests and the press were then es corted to ther places in carriages,and the procession began to move. XI«o Progress. to the Continental was one continued ovation. The President and his compan ions entered the main door of the hotel, on Ninth street, amid the most boister ous cheering. But the President could not long remain hidden. Ho was called for by a thousand voices, and they would take no denial. At last he appeared on the balcony, Seward and Grant on either side of him, and the throng which pack ed Chesnut for a square on either side, seemed wild with enthusiasm. The President seemed pleased and bow ed repeatedly as the cheers passed from the center to the edge of the throng, and reverberated back again. When silence was restored he said: Spceeli of the Prc.slilent, Fellow-Citizens : In visiting Phila delphia on the present occasion, It was not for the purpose of making a speech, but on my way, in company with distin guished gentlemen, to the great city of the West, Chicago, to witness, or to par ticipate in the laying of the corner-stone of a monument to bo erected to a distin guished statesman. We have taken Phil adelphia in our route, and in being hero to-day .1 must bo permitted not to make a speech; but I must be permitted to ten der to the citizens of Philadelphia on the present occasion, and under the peculiar circumstances, my heartfelt and my sin cere thanks for this demonstration, or this manifestation of their regard and spect for one who has tried during his'- whole life to do his duty. This simulta neous and spontaneous coming forth of. the independent freemen of Philadelphia to-day inspires me with renewed conii dence, and with renewed determination to pursue my course in discharging and administering the government, as X be lieve it will promote the great principles of constitutional liberty. We have just passed through a fierce and bloody con flict. The war is over and peace has been made, and I trust in God that war will not retur i again. I trust that the day is far distant when one portion of our na tion shall be arrayed in battle against an other portion. I trust in God that the day is far distant when man will set upon his brother, and in the name of God lift his hand against the life of his brother. — I trust in God that the day is distant when this land, that gave brotherhood of life, is again tobo drenched with brothers’ blood. Thank God, the baleful planet of blood has bsen chased away. I trust that the country will again return to all the blessings of peace, and that prosperity and harmony and reconciliation will again be brought about. I trust that we will stand together as one people and one na tion. So far as referring to the past, m con nection with our political affairs, I told you I did not intend to make a speech.— Sly public acts and my messages all be fore the people are enough. It is for them Ito j udge. Believing, as X do. that the pol icy that has been pursued is the policy; that it is calculated to advance and pro- ADVERTISING TERMS.

[Tumultuous applause.] Then let us stand together; let us preach a common platform; let us forget that we have been divided into par ties, and forget, too, that we must obey the behests of pan-y, instead of obeying tho command of our country. Let your country be, and let the Interests of the great mass of tho people be promoted, and let parties sink into insignificance, and if we have a party, let it be based on the groat principles of tho Constitution. [Ap plause.] Yes, the Constitution of our country is tho strongest league that can bo formed, and when you talk about leagues! [Great laughter.] He who has entered Into a covenant, and has formed a league above that of the Constitution of the United States, has entered in a com bination against his country, and his country shoulu look to it. [Applause.] Let each and every man belong to this great national league, and lot tho Consti tution of the United States bo the Consti tution of his league. I want no better Constitution, no other league than that. It was formed by Washington and his compeers. It was geod enough for you or for me. And now as a baud of broth era loving our country and determined to support tho Constitution of the United States, let us stand together around the common altar of our country and swear that ail shall perish or fall in the dust to gether, butthe Constitution shall bo main tained and the Untou perpetuated. From my entrance into public life to the pres ent time ithasbeenmy creed in all doubt ful questions, in all great emergencies, to rely upon the intelligence and the integ rity of the great mass of tho people. There I stand to-day and tho Constitution of your country and the country itself is in your hands. [Applause.] And there I shall leave it, with the confident belief that you will at the proper time, i. e., at the ballot-box—you will restore your country, and it will again stand redeem ed and regenerated. As I entered your city this afternoon I saw upon a mechan ical establishment the words, “ Welcome tho President.” I know it was the ema nation of laboring men. [Applause.] Ho who placed it there knew whom he was addressing, ami lie ’ knew whether they would understand it or not. My confi dence is in them, and if you, the people, will act rightly, os tho evidences here to day show, we can make a class of men who call themselves politicians cow and dwindle away. You can bring them to terms without much effort on your part. But we have heard a great deal about emancipation. Who has toiled more iu chat cause than I have? Are you right sure that there is a large proportion of people in this State who nave come up to this state of emancipation? That is the party who hold tho rod over you; talk about pulling meu out of office; who clam or when one has been turned out and an other has boon putin. Why, is that good old doctrine of rotation in office forgotten ? Who are now less entitled to participate in tho policy of tho government than those who have tho offices? Then, their power and their attempt to exercise pow er over tho people to-day is unwarranted, as are tho tyrant’s themselves. I say to you, come up to the work—come up to die ballot-box, and tho tyrant can be bent and broken. [Applause.] T repeat that cho government is in your hands, and chere lam willing to trust it. Then, fel iow-oitizons, as I did not intend to say even what 1 have said, I have said more than I intended to say; I will conclude by tendering you again my sincere thanks for your demonstrations of welcome and respect for one who has labored during an eventful life to advance and promote tho interest of the great mass of the peo ple. Thanking you gentlemen, in part ing with you I leave the nation in your hands, where I know it will be safe. — [Applause.] When tho President retired, lie retired in earnest to his room, where he sought some rest from the inevitable hand-sha king ho would have to undergo for a half hour after seven o’clock. Throughout the evening, ho was sere naded by the Keystone Club, the Nation al Union Johnson Club, and the Tailors’ Protective Union. Tho whole square around the Continental was crowded with people waiting patiently to hear or see the President. About ton o’clock, the clamor was so great that he appeared on tho balcony and said: Siicccli of the President. Fellow-Citizens : Xu presenting my self before you to-night in compliance with your solicitation, It is not for the purpose of making an address, but simp ly to render you thanks for the manifes tations of respect and regard on this occa sion. I mean what I say in tendering my thanks for this demonstration. As I said hero to-day, under the peculiar cir cumstances, youjiaye my heartfelt thanks. I wish that our condition wasone in which f could have the opportunity of being in different circumstances from what I am, to oncer into a discussion of the questions that agitate and divide the public mind. Butjas far as that is co nee red, my political course is historically well known to aliof you. Of course I shall not enter into a discussion of that, and I am here to-night to tender you my thanks for the respect you have manifested. I have.been told oil this occasion that there is an associa tion hero to-night who have come for ward under the badge of their profession for the purpose of manifesting their re gard and respect. I want you to under stand that I need not and do not feel in - different to compliments of that kind, for under our government it Is “ worth makes the man and want of it the fellow.” On this occasion, if there is an associa tion here to-night which calls itself the “Tailors' Association,” I tender my sin cere thanks for this signal manifestations of their regard in connecting with their profession. (Cheers.) There is no posi tion in life in which I could be placed jit hat would make me indifferent, or cause me to forget my early history and my early profession In life. There is nothing that could make me forget it; and as far as that profession is concerned, I reflect that, it is a profession in common with mechanics and tho agricultural art. Let mo say that our great humau father and head—Adam—was a tailor by trade; and when you come to reflect carefully on this thing, you will find my remarks are lit erally true, and now, men, mechanics, feliow-eitizens, gentlemen, please accept my sincere thaaks for this demonstration you have made on this occasion in wel coming me to this city. I thank you, in deed, and bid you good night. (Applause.) Music was then given by the Liberty Cornet Baud. Admiral Farragut was loudly called for. Ho appeared merely to acknowledge the compliment, and ex cused himself from making a speech. Tho Maeunerchor afterwards serena ded the President in one of the parlors of the hotel. General Grant strolled about the corri dors of tho hotel du ing the evening, and was an object of general attention; fiST The “ boys in blue” are two to one, going for Clymer. No honorable soldier can go for negro suffrage Geary. Be sides this. Geary is a Dlsunionist, and the decent “ boys in blue” all fought for the Union. Geary is opposing and embarras ing the government, to injure his coun try'. Ho wishes to prevent peace and 1 harmony, and to prolong disorder, blood' 1 shed and revolution.
