If we were indebted to the newspaper Press for nothing else than our better knowledge of foreign countries, the .'debt would still be ti re., large: We had no Informant uno this subject in old times equal to the Spec yl Co spondent of to-clay. The man whpefesided in ome far "offt land for half a life • e, and came home and published the r albs of his experience, was of cour:e more exhaustive in his account; but his remarks were wanting in freshness: he forgot his first impressions (which; for a book of travel, are the most essential) before he began to write ; his details were often unin teresting, and his reflections (for readers like to reflect for themselves) almost • al ways superfluous. On the other hand, the traveler who merely strayed beyond the Rinks of the Grand Tour and published his Fort- Night in Timbuctoo, or elsewhere, had little to say, because he had no opportunities for investigation. Now, to "the Special" in strange latitudes, all doors—almost those of the harem itself—fly open. Emperors who • wish to stand well with England, and shrewdly suspect that she is most easily cajoled by means of her favorite, the Press, • issue the 2not crordre that its emissaries shall be royally treated. Generals of opposing hosts vie with one another in placing these Bohemians on their staff. They see more ofeverything that, is worth seeing, and that from the most con venient point of view, abroad, than do po licemen of the A division at home; and of course they are the very people to give us a graphic account of it all. They are chosen, not upon the diplomatic system, because they are step-sons or first cousins of newspaper proprietors, but' simply because they are the best writers that can be got for the work; and excellently well do they perform their office. One of the most talented of these gentry, and who bids fair ("bar one," as the betting mat say) to stand at the very Summit of his profession, has lately favored us with his ex perienges of a month in Russia.* It is true that these are confined to St. Petersburg and Moscow; but the new and the old capitals of that vast empire are adMirable types of new and old Russia; and our author's eyes let no thing slip. The occasion of his visit was the late marriage of the Czarovitch with Princess Dagmar, and everything that could wear 'a holiday aspect was made to do so; if rose- color, therefore; is not the prevailing, hue of the narrative, R - we. .may , con clude.hue that usSia in ordinary times is not 4 very cheerful country to live in. That, in deed, would be naturally one's own supposi tion. An inclement climate; 4 despotic'and venal government; and a population in which - only one-half per cent. ,can read or write, do not present materials of much promise. But that large class of persons who delight in paradox, have been so won over by that small class of persons . 0o travel and lie, that the general opinion in England is, that the, Muscovite noble is a man of great intelli-' gence and refinement, and the Muscovite peasant not worse off, At all events since the -abolition of serfdom, than the Dorsetshire laborer. Mx. Dicey's book will go far to dispel thiti mischievous illusion. The first glimpse which our author meets with of the preparations that are awaiting him and all Western visitors at- St. Peters burg, upon this auspicious occasion, is at Cologne; -- he has there, for fellow-traveler, a Russian government courier, who, besides his ordinary luggage, conveys with him twelve enormous cases—each taking four men to lift it—covered with black oilcloth, and of most funereal aspect; these contain the wedding dresses of the imperial familyonade,of course, in Paris—St. Petersburg, in spite of the late Czar's endeaVers, having not yet rivalled the capital of France in fashion, although it may have 'surpassed it in a- 'certain savage splen dor., The Northern Terminus at Berlin, says our author (who did not visit it upon this occasion for the first time), is the point on the . journey Bussiawards where you seem to begin really to leave Western Europe behind you, and to pass the 'confines of its civilization. The chimney -pot hat and trousers which form the ordinary garb of gentlemen, whether in Lon don, Paris, Berlin, or Vienna, nay, New York or Bt. Louis, are here exchanged for more fantastic costumes. The raijway plat form looks like the stage of a theatre, so va riously apparelled are those who stand there, waiting to be whirled to their far-off homes; in gorgeous caps, in immense fur-pelisses, in boota.---such as the Baron in the story used to call for in his voice of thunder. Walachians, Magwars, Bohemians, Poles Xtu3covites, all speaking in tongues Which even to our traveled author, were en tirely i'mktiown. But it was not until he had leftPrassian Poland far behind, and even the provinces of the. Ponteranian Bultic, that the landscape altered in its Gelman . features. "The night had closed in again when we left the bet Frugal= station, passed over u * 4 „Earth sn Ruaed during the Afurriage of the egar444o., ) 3 7 ;Edward plco.T. j,cindon Mac- TOW stream on which the rails on eitner sum were Painted -• in different < colors, .-:-and found , ourselves in Russia; 1 have .never• erossed' a frontier where the change .between two countries, was so " Marked and signal. We.could still . see the lamps of...the ,PrusSian sation, and yet we were amidst a population to whom German appeared well-nigh unknown. Wild looking porters, dressed m sheep-skin coats, and re sembling the Anabaptist peasants in the Proplate, jabbered round us in an un known jargon. Passports . were asked for, and scrutinized rigidly; we were driven through one room after another, provided with mysterious passes, to enable us to make our way past sentries, so that no body could ]eave.the room unauthorized; and were soon taught by unmistakable signs that, if we wanted to get our passports vis6d, and our luggage passed without unnecessiii.y.'de tention, we must fee somebody for the privi lege. The rooms in which we waited •vere really magnificent of their kind; but the food was bad, the attendance worse, the charges for everything were enormous, and cheatint appeared to he the received rule of everybody connected with the establishment." Nor was the "look-out" from the carriage windo - W . more promising than the moral aspect. 'Pomerania was ‘triste' enough; but there, at any rate, there was the look of life, and comfort, and prosperity. Here the one pre vailing aspect was that of exceeding loneli ness. For mile atter mile we went creeping on—our average pace, I should say, was fifteen miles an hour—through immense stunted forests. The pine woods of Poland are dismal, but they are cheerful compared to these endless larch forests, half swamps, half plantations. The bare white stalks of the larch and silver birch stood gaunt and •grim by the side of the squat fir-trees amidst which they were interspersed. The earth was dun-colored, covered with dark mosses and lichens. • All through the woods there ]ay chaired and blackened stumps; . there was water everywhere, not rnnning brooks or clear streams; but dark pools surrounded with dank weeds, and gloomy rneres with stacks of black turf piled beside them. The woods appeared well-nigh tenantless; a few wild-fowl hovered about the marshes; I saw a hare or two startled from the ferns by the rattle of the train; water-rats could be seen stealing down to the edge of—the pools; but othtir life there was none. When you left the forest for a time, and got out' into the cleared country, the aspect was not much more cheerful. The bare fields were half-covered with boulders of gray round stone; the soil looked so sodden with wet, it seemed hard to believe any crops could ever grow there; the field roads were black tracks of earth, fnashed down by horses' feet; every now and then, you saw a herd of black pigs,- or a few lean oxen, guarded by a peasant clad in sheepskin so dirty as to have become the same color As the sombre fields; in the distance, there were blocks of low wooden huts or sheds, which, I suppose, were villages, but from which no smoke issued; heaps of dead soaked hay could be seen stacked together loosely; in the fields themselves there were pools without end, fringed with rows of bare bulrush stalks. Half-a-dozen times within the day I caught sight, of a town with gilt minaret towers, which, I Presume, were those of churches. Twice, I think, we passed a chateau, with white washed Corinthian pillars, and a .stucco facade, cracked and weather-stained. But the general impression left by the fleeting glances I caught of such things' in passing: was one of extreme desola tifm." There were points of resemblance, indeed,-between—this--cheerless 7 -landscape and the fialf-cleared settlementS of Western America, but there was this important , dif ference : hi the latter case you see at. once that the wilderness is .. being brought into , cultivation ; in Russia it looks as if the forest. and the swamp were gaining ground upon the settler. " Russians tell me,''saysll/r.Difley,"without moving a muscle, that to see their country in its true aspect; I must go southward. I only spcak what Ihave seen."! • There is an air of truth, indeed,about all Mr. Dicey's descriptions which is very refreshing to us stay-at-homes. We feel that we are not reading, in this volume, one of those la borious , attempts, only too common with travelers, to make facts chime with their pre conceived-theories; we have a confidence - that our author is showing us genuine photographs, and that whatever looks ugly, is at least no fault of the sun's; and, above all, we are , ,grateful to him for protection against those traveled nuisances among ourselves (although, to do ourselves justice, we have never believed - them) wlnf are always making insidious comparisons between what they have seen in Nova Zern bla, or other out-of-the-way region; and what we have to show at home, "I haye a friend," says he (and who has not?), "who never loses an opportunity of asserting that some quay or other in Monte Video, or Rio Janeiro, or Valparaiso, I tbrget now which, is the • finest thoroughfare in the world. If I thought St. Petersburg were far enough oil; I would certainly declare that persons who had never seen the `Newski Prospekt," have no notion of street architecture.' Zut, as the imposture is certain to be detected, I confess that even Regent Street, not to mention the Boulevards„, or the Corso at Milan, is a much handsomer street than the far famed •Prospekt:' The latter bears a strong flintily resemblance to, the modern portion of, the Rue Rivoli, after the arcades have ceased. It has a close cousinship with New Oxford street; it shows an unmistakable affinity to Tottenham Court road. and to Market street, Manchester. I dO not say this from the slightest wish to cry that all is barren from V Dan to Beersheba. But when I am told, as I have been constantly,. by travelers in Russia, that the Newski Prospekt is one of the grandest of European streets, I am bound, in common honesty, to protest that it is not. The roadway is very broad, and the street stretches for an interim indite length; but when you have said this, you have said pretty well all Externally,the • shops are not brilliant to look at. Signboards, advertising placards, and painted figure-heads arc stuckZull over the frontage. The lower part of every house is occupied by shops; and most of those shops have a miscellaneous `general-store' Iciok about' them which de prives them of any appearance of grandeur." At the same time, Mr. Dicey admits that the Newski Prospekt i 3 one of the Most interesting of thoroughfares, front the contrasts it affords in those who frequent it. Ladies dressed in the richest and most costly sables, followed by chasseurs in gilt braid, feathers, and stripes, are seen there side by side n ith Russian peasants clad in sheepskins, hanging to their heels, and tied tightly round their Waists. And until you.have seen these last, you do not know what dirt is. You must go to Russia to- see filth in its true perfection. In these sheep skin coats the peasants lie night and day, nor ever _change them until they fall to pieces, The foreheads of these men are broad- and low ; . their check-.bones stick out, their eyes are sunken, their ;apses flattened, with wide, open_,nos -trils, their mouths large,tuld their. complexion of a yelloW hue not common in the West. But let us leave such comparatively worth ' lessobjects as the common people, and hurry with ow author to the railway etatiooto meet . THE - DAILY EVENING BULLETIN.--PHILA DF,T,PITT A SATURDAY, AUGUST 3, 1867. the -Prince of Wales and the other invited :guests; whose- special train is:already- sig .naled. The Emperor - himself is there; of • cotirse in full uniform (as every :Male Rum rian who is worth mentioning alwaYs Is); and our own Prince and his suite . have decked themselves • in• military cos tume accordingly. In the four im mense saloon-carriages there are nearly a hundred - Ulcers in the most brilliant uni forms, and almost as many stars among them as in the firmament. This contrast between the splendor of the few and the squalor of the many is continuously being .presented Russia. In • St. Petersburg, unlike any western city (where, however, such contrasts arc striking enough), this extends even to the buildings. Next to the Palace .stands the Hovel. All • the wealth is lavislud upon church and mansion; -there is nothing to spare for the general comfort. ' St. Isaac's Church; • for instance, is perhaps the most gorgeous shrine in all Christendom. Its steps arc of porphyry, its pillani of basalt, its walls of marble, its capitals of bronze; "yet the square in the centre of which it stands is worse paved than the back streets of the poorest German town." It is said that in London• are to be seen the 'extremes of riches and poverty; but then there are many inter mediate states. Now, in St. Petersburg,there is nothing of the sort. Luxury and misery stand shoulder to shoulder. The Most sump- tuous civilization (although, indeed, it may be only uniform-deep) confronts the most filthy barbarism. "Dives and Lazarus are the only two parts in the Russian life-drama." There are no respectable classes in St. Petersburg. The extreme paucity of well dressed people in the streets, although the people that. are well dressed are gorgeous, strikes every stranger; and those who are ill clothed, that is, nineteen-twen tieths of the population, have a brutal and de graded look in the extreme. Folks are not all sober in Glasgow (it is whispered), but Glasgow is a temperance town compared with the Russian capital. "Everywhere, and at all hours of the day, you meet with intoxi cated people." Our author beheld an elderly gentlemen, attired in the most splendid furs, go reeling down the Newski, lurching from lamp-post to lamp-post, without attracting any particular attention, far less the attention of the police, which would have certainly happened in Regent street. "Amongst the .lower classfor • the word class can hardly be used in the plural. number in Russia—drunkenness is said to be universal. It is not odd that it should be so, for any sort of intellectual amusement, or even innocent amusement, is out of their reach. The theatres are splendid, and the performances excellent; but then the prices. of admission are utterly beyond the means of common pockets. * * * Boozing on bad spirits, in stiffing cellars of cut-throat aspect is, so far as I can learn, the one soli tary enjoyment provided for the Russian peasant." . • Without the means of- getting sufficient warmth, too, , life at St. Petersburg must be wretched indeed, The cruel sharpness of the east wind, that blows across ,the Gulf of Bothnia, is something indescribable ; and, wrap yourself up as you makyou who have got them), in furs and cloaks, your feet and ears tingle with the pain. Yet St. Peters ' burg is one of the few cities where a large number of people sleep habitually lathe open streets at night. Our author saw plenty of them (not, mind, to be confounded with the watehmen who guard every third house) lying on benches before. the street doors, when he was returning late from the splendid entertain ments .at the palace. - Let us turn from the contemplation of such abject misery to the other side of the picture of Russian life. Our author, as British special newspaper correqxadent, `has; Of, course, an invitation to the imperial wedding, and makes one of the couple of hundred black coats that serve as foils there to the two thousand bril liant uniforms. ' In the Winter Palace, which stretches for nearly a mile along the banks of the Neva, the quarters of the officials are more splen didly furnished than the most luxurious of Albany chambers. The state-apartments are palaces such as the genii of the Arabian Nights were wont to raise for those who possessed the almighty ring of Solomon the Great. "Wealth was lavished everywhere, in every form. • Outside immense picture galleries, along spacious corridors,across vast reception-rooms, by winter-gardens filled with aloes and orange trees,and cactuses and palm trees, we passed on and on. Through the window you could see the snow-flakes falling against the dull, dim sky; and when you looked back auain, you seemed to he ini fairy-landS I have a confused recollection of` splendid malachite vases, of porphyry tables, plates of solid gold, cups studded with pre cious stones. of cases full of gems, of gilded cornices, and silver hangings, scattered about in even: :corner where room, could be found to place them. Old Blficher's saying, when' - he surveyed London,'rose unhidden to one's mind. Even the least covetous of mankind could not. .I deem, have avoided thinking to himself what a place it NA%Itl be to plunder." At last, our author reached the long suite of halls that look forth upon the Neva, Where the persons admitted to witness the procession of the court to the chapel were col lected "Anything more brilliant than the crowd so formed cannot easily be imagined. There was to be seen well-nigh every descrip tion of uniform which sartorial ingenuity could devise; though they differed in every other respect, they were all alike iu their elaborate richness. ("told was literally scat tered about them by handfuls. An officer with one of the least gilt-be-braided uniforms I observed there, told me that the gold upon his coat alone had cost him a hundred pounds. If this was the — case, it is terrible to think what must have been the value of many of these costumes. Looking on the rooms from above, you must have seemed to see below a floating haze of gold and scarlet. The ladies were attired in the most gor geous colors. Crimson, saffron, violet, pink, and green were only a few of the hueS of their shining silks; while, as for jewels, there was scarcely a lady- who had not such a profusion of them as would have made their wearer an object of attention in any Loudon ball-room. The chapel where the ceremony took place was, of course, a still more gorgeous spectacle. But the description of so much magnificence, and pomp, and parade, however graphically described, becomes as wearisome to read as, sooner or later, it must become to witness. The only toilet' of pathos connected with the marriage of that beautiful young girl with the heir of All the Russias (whose some what truculent portrait contrasts with her own sweet face not altogether pleasantly in this volume), occurs in our author's account of theinnial-place of the House of Romanoff. Under, the last and latest in the gallery of tombs lay the body of the poor lad who died at Nice, and was to have been the hero of all this festivity. On his tomb was a plain Wadi chaplet, newly placed among the many with which the grave was decorated. "if, had been hung there the other day, so the sexton told me, by the lady who was sometime Prin cess Dagmar, and is now the orthodox Grand Duchess Maria Federovna.!2- Where the Prince of Wales went, it was ne cessary (in the interests of the British public) that our author .should also go, and accord ingly,he went to Moscow. When the Czar Nicholas bad the plans of the projected rail way betwen his two capitals laid . before him, zigzagging hither and thither, ill! order to.secure the traffic'of the other great towns upon the way, he drew a, straight line upon the chart, and said: ,4 130 mutit it be.'" The result is, great convenience of communica tion, to be sure, but, on the other hand, this great railway only passes one important town in the whole of the six hundred , ' verstirk tra verses. A fellow-traveler assured our author that, constantly as he had been on the line, he had never seen anybody either get in or out at the roadside stations. The completeness of the arrangements for the comfort of passengers seems something nmrvclous compared with our own wretched railway accommodtition. "The train con sisted of half-a-dozen cars of immense length: They were all much of a pattern. Entering by the middle, you come first ` into a small saloon, with a table in the centre, surrounded by sofas and divans. From one side .of this saloon a passage, broad and high enough for a tall man or a lady in crinoline to walk along without much difficulty, leads to the further end of the carriage, open-. ing by a door on to the iron plat form outside. Out of this passage you pass, pushing aside the heavy curtains, into any one of the three private apartments—l know of no more appropriate word—into which the carriage is divided. In the day time, these apartments look like very luxu rious first-class carriages, with . arm-chair seats for six persons. On he other side of the saloon I have spoken of was a passage leading to similar apartments, reserved for ladies; and on the roof there was a sleeping saloon, to which you ascended by a Winding staircase. The view from this upper-floor is excellent,' but in winter-time the lower apartments are chosen by preference. Every thing in the whole place was admirable arranged, the doors fitted closely; and as in entering the carriage you have to pass through a succession of doors, one of which you close before you open the other, there is no draught from the cold, bleak air outside * * * Besides.the apartments set apart fo travelers, there were washing-places and dressing-rooms, all handsomely fitted up,and, what is even more remarkable, scrupulously clean." When night arrived, the attendants, "three of whom—two men and one woman—are attached to every car, lit the - lamps, the curtains were drawn, a green baize portable table was fixed in the centre of our compartment, -candles were fastened at the corners, and chess, and draughts, and cards were offered to us, incase we did not wish to sleep or to read. Learn ing that the duty upon cards was paid over to the funds of the noble foundling-hospitals with which Russia is provided, we thought ourselves justified in supporting the cause of charity, and from— ) dark till it was time to go to bed, we played at whist as comfortably as we had been seated in a London club- room." Every fifty miles of ,so was a first class station, with refreshment rooms, sup plied with every delicacy, duck, and geese, and venison, huge fishes and plump part ridges, jellies and puddings, tarts and pasties, all laid out so charmingly, that it seemed a shame to cat them. No wonder our author blushed to think 'of "the shabby counters, the stale buns, the grizzly fiy-blown patties, the horse an ; and the scraggy drumsticks of ar establishments at home." It must be added, howeVer, per contra, that at the booking office of this Elysian line of railway, there is something still to be learned even from the London. Chatham and Dover. "I was served with a ticket—the document looked so like a writ, that the word 'served' suggests itself naturally—about ' a fbot in length, covered with • cabalistic caracters. Then I had to procure ! :another - doe neat of the same length for my sleeping-bert in the train, and then I had to obtain separate ticket for every article of luggage I did not take in the carriage with me. One ticket would have done as well;"" but it is the cardinal prin ciple of all RUssian administration never ! to use one piece of writing where two - can . possi bly be employed. I may mention, as an in stance of the way in which business is car ried on, that at one bureau in the station they - gave me a five-rouble note in change, so tat tered, and torn, and greasy, that I declined taking it till I was assured of its genuineness; at another bureau in the self-same hall Lei dercd this note in payment, and had irposi tively 'refused as worthless. ! Happily, I had time to insist on. its being changed. It was returned . to the, railway bfacials, and will doubtlesS be passed off on some other stranger, who is either more unsuspicious or more pressed for time than I chanced to be myself. l At Wo.5COVir, the sqlialor and the splendid afford even sharper contrast than in the more modern capital. There is an utter absence of all bttorgeois houses. Ifyou are a prince or a ! sneasant, you can be suitably lodged ,-x.,:...;;tii•frUt if you , want au eight-roomed how?, or a flat to yourself; you Will look in vain. The fact is, the only persons in all Russia with moderate incomes are the offi cials, and these are miserably underpaid: An officer of high rtwk informed our author that his pay of one hundred and fitly pounds (spent, we imagine, on uniforms) was utterly insufficient to support him, and that he should be literally in want, did he not carry on private business as a nonde script broker. Sonic officers carry on much less legitimate trades. A paragraph in one of the Russian papers, describing the breaking up of a gang of burglars in Kazan, whose chief was ascertained be Lieutenant —, of the regiment, quartered in that town, did not appear to excite the slightest surprise. When our officers go wrong, they gene rally adopt the wine or the annuli coal traue; but in Russia there is a great opening MOW , '` them for felony, since the police (all old soldiers) never venture to into rfere witlOin officer in uniform, but only stand at the salute ' wblle the little peccadillo is beincr b transacted. As for the taking of bribes,, that is universal among all functiona ries, whether military or civil. A gentleman who has much experience in dealing with Russian government officials, thus describes his operations. "When he had stated his bus iness, whatever it might be, he pulled out his cigar-case, and offered it to!. his interlocutor, telling him to help himself. In one side there were cigarettes, in the, other the sum of paper roubles he intended to offer; and it was very seldom he found": the notes still left in the ffigar-case when it was returned to him." The Kremlin at Moscow, on which the wealth of the empire has - been expended since Napoleon left it but bare walls, is such an edifice as you behold in dreams. "From the pavement to the suinmit of its lofty domes, supported on its vast porphyry pillars, it is one mass of gold and color. You can hardly put your haiid. upon a place not decorated with stones and jewels. Amethyst and onyx, jasper and opals, and all the toness whose names are re corded' in the adornment of Solomon's Tem ple, seem to have been employed to make the shrine more splendid still. Upon the dusky portrait of the Virgin Mother and her Child, with which the walls are covered, you see hanging necklaces of diamonds, strings of Jewels, each one of which must. be worth a fortune. * * * * The very walls are wrought of silver; the roof is of solid gold." In the courtyard of this .gorgeous edifice there stand nearly a thousand guns, all cap tured from the Grand Armee. Equally, characteristic of the morals of Moscow, as the Kremlin is of its religion, is the Lying-in Hospital. "Women enter here with sionasks 'on, which they wear during their whole time Of residence in its secret wards. No ques tions are asked; and they leave, when their confinement is over, as unknown as when they entered the establishment." Back at St. Petersburg; out ituthdr finds the princely 101;es going on as briskly as ever. lle goes to a state performance at the theatre where everybody is the guest of the Czar,and where the champagne flows like water for all corners —you might even fill your pockets with bon bons: in all that splendid house, there were not a score of men in civilian attire; no occu pant of the pit-stalls held rank lower than that of a general officer, and each .one, without exception, wore the Grand Cordon of some native or foreign order. Not a lady there was without diamonds, or those strings of pearls which they ace said not to take off even when they sleep, lest the pearls should clic and lose color. Perhaps the finest spectacle Which St. Petersburg afforded, however, during this month of feasting, was the ball given by the Grand Duke Constantine at the Marble Palace. This magnificent mansion was not only thrown open to his thousand 'guests,, so far as the reception-rooms were concerned, but every apartment in the house was placed at their pleasure. The bedrooms and dressing-rooms were prome naded as freely as the drawing-rooms. "It seemed to me as if the long procession would never end. Out 'of halls blazing with light and color you passed into low galleries; then into bedchambers hung with rich tapestries; then into alcoves surrounded with gorgeous flowers; then into corridors where fountains sparkled brightly; and then again into new ranges, of halls, each more splendid then the last .which you had traversed." But enough of this surfeitesplendor. Our author did not onut to make himself ac quainted with how the mass of the population of St. Petersburg were amusing themselves during these great doings. He spent a . night in "seeing life" as it was to be seen in those favorite places of resort, ; the public spirit cellars. `.l, have seen low drinking-shops in St. Giles's; I have been into pretty-waiter girls' saloons in the Bowery, New York; I have seen whisky stores in the wynds of Glasgow; but I. have never seen anything, bad as these are, approaching to the squalor and degraded misery , of these Russian wodka-shops. The cellar was damp, and reeking with a hot, fetid. air; the walls ;were bare and slimy with wet; fur niture there Was none; around the walls there were wooden settles, on which men and women sat huddled together. stupid with drink. Every face was bleared, blotched and blurred by intoxication. None . of the com pany were talking., or even quarrelling. Wrapped in their sheepskins and soiled furs, they sat there silently. There is nothing so ciable about the drinking of the common Russians; when they get liquor, they gulp it down, and will go on gulping till their sup ply is gone or they are dead drunk. * Through the window-panes I looked into numbers of these stores; they; were all the same—all bare, all fithy, all crowded with men and women besotted with liquor. And then I had a hideous vision of a public tavern, where a hundred men, sunk to the level of brutes, and unsexed women - all in rags, all far past the stage of feeling the slight est care for their personal appearance, all filthy, most of them with black eyes . and' . broken heads, sat boozing .together at long deal tables, literally black with dirt. Neither the men nor the women looked like human beings. There was no rioting, no singing ; no entertainment of any kind; and from the wall the. pictUre of Christ looked down upon this . mallowing mass of creatures made after • God's own image. I had seen life enough, and I went home wiser per ps, sad der certainly." From the journal of Mr. DicipyLs _graphic, volume we also rise "wiser perhaps, .sadder 'certainly." What is fine about Russia is its court. As a country, it seems simply bar 'barons; nay, worse than barbarous, for there is no rough and ready justice to be got in it that may sometimes lie procured even among savages. Might is right from end to end of it. Even the sleekneSs of manner about the courtiers themselves—to whose constant courtesy our author bears grateful witness— has something of the tiger -cat about it. "The, Russians I was thrown into contact with were polished, well educated, high-bred, to an almost exaggerated degree. lint I could never shake off the impression that they had got on their company-manners for the occasion. Moreover, in my case, this impression was hei4htened by the fuel Get . . I had once seen thelttissians tinier a di tierent aspect.. Three years ago, I was in Poland during the insurrection. lamby no means a Philo-pole. From what I have seen of both nations„l should say Poles and Ros:zians .are 'very much alike, especially the Poles. Of the two races, I prefer the lquscoVite,.tviiieli„ I believe,. will ultimately absorb the other. But nobody who ever saw Warsaw as I did. during Mouravieffs. reign of terror, could avoid the feeling that the Russians of real life are extremely different to what they appear in the artificial world of court gayeties." In a word, Russian civilization extends no further than her court, and even there is only skin- deep; nay, it scarcely penetrates the skin. It is lost in the costly fur and the brilliant •] uniform. Lucifer !Matches. Since the beginning of the present century, it may, with truth, be affirmed that, by the many inestimable benefits which have. re sulted fa in the application of science to our e‘ery-day Wants, human life has gained in dination, and its pleasures have been in ct•eased a thousand-fold.. Of these benefits, not the least important, in utility and conve nience, is the common lucifer match. The old methods of obtaining light were very clumSy and uncertain, compared with it. The earliest recorded plan was that of rubbing together two piecesof dry wood,such as laurel and ivy. That was followed by the "flint and steel," a method which remainedin 4eneral use in this country till about thirty live years ago. The plain splint clipped in sulphur is also an old invention, and may he viewed as the original form of the lucifer match. Previous to the introduction of the lucifer match in 1833, various kinds of chemical matches were tried, but with little success, owing to their expense, and the danger attend ing their use. The "Eupyrion," "Prome thean"'and "fiction" matches were the most important of these early attempts. The Eupy rion consisted of a splint of wood dipped in sulphur, and afterwards tipped with a paste containing chlorate of potash, colophony, and gum. When a light was desired, it was dipped into a little sulphuric acid in a bottle, and rapidly withdrawn, when,the chlorate of potash, owing to the strong chemi cal action which ensues bet Ween it and • the acid, burst into flame, and set lire to the wood. This -match . was introduced in 1807, and was sold for one shilling per box. The Promethean match was invented in -1838 ; -and was a modification of the Eupyrion. It con sisted of a roll of gummed paper, containing at dab one end •A mixture of chlorate of potash and gum, and . a smalllghtsa bulb, tilled with sulphuric 'acid, and was ignited by breaking the bulb with a pair' of pliers, and allowing the chlorate of potash and acid to come into contact., The triction-reate,h was first made in 1882, and resembled the Eupyrion in every respect, with the exception that the paste with which it Was tipped contained the additional: ingredient of sulphide of antimony, and in stead of being dipped in acid to cans igni-• tion it was merely rubbed firmly between glass-paper. A year afterward, phosphorus was intro duced into the match composition, and Inciter matches were manufactured for ie first time, although in a much less perfect form than at, present. It is remarkable that phosphorus was not thought of before that period for the purpose of match-making, as it.. was dis covered so far back as the year IGO, and its peculiar property of being easily ignited by friction was known soon afterwards. When phosphorus was discovered, it was regarded Merely as , a chemical' curiosity, and was sold for four guineas an ounce; now, how ever,. it has become an article of commerce, and may be bought for less than half-a-crown per.POWL(fl k . . In lucifer-match manullictoly the first deparment you enter is that in which the wood is edit into splints. Each plank is sawn into thirty blocks, and these, by means of lancets set in a frame which is worked by steam, are cut into splints four and a half inches long. One frame may readily produce from two to three millions of splints per day. The splints are next col lected into bundles, and dried by exposure in an oven to the temperature of 300 degrees Fahrenheit. They arc then conveyed to the sulphur house, where both ends of each bun "die are dipped in melted sulphur. The next and last process is called "dipping," and con sists in tipping the ends of the splints in the phosphorus mixture. The composi tion of this mixture differs according to the country in which the matches are to be consumed. Matches !Or use in moist climates, such as our own, contain less phosphorus than those for use in warm coun tries, as phosphorus, when it becomes moist; loses its property of combustion. A match composition for use in England should con tain two parts of phosphorus, four, parts of chlorate of potash, two parts of gum; three parts of powdered glass, and a little vermilion or other colouring matter. . - The phosphoru - s is the most important in gredient in the match composition, as this it is which ignites when,the match is subjected to friction, the combustion being conveyed to the wood by the chlorate of potash and sul phur. The gum is introduced for the purpose of making the Mixture adhere, and also to protect the phc4hOrus from the action of the air. Matches which contain a considerable quantity of-chlorite of potash snake a snap ping noise when ignited, while those which contain a small quantity of that substance make little noise, and require less frictiout for their ignition. To return to the process of manufacture. The splints, after being sulphured, are con veyed to another room, in which are arranged plates of stone or . iron, cov ered with the phosphorus composition to the depth of an eighth of an in . ch, and heated underneath. by steam, for the purpose of keeping the mixture in a fluid state. The splints are dipped pnee,twice, or even oftener if necessary, then dried: and as both ends are tipped with the composition, they are next divided, each splint forming two matelies, In some Manufactories, the splints are divided betbre the composition is added. The matches, after being packed in boxes are ready for the market. The rapidity with which these various pro cesses are gone through is truly astonishing, it being not unusual ui large works to intro duce the raw wood into the saw-mills in the morning, and a few hours afterwards, to Ship it in the form of lucifer-matches. The manufacture of matcheSis one attended with considerable danger, owing to the very inflammable nature of the - nniterialutts4 and those operatives engaged in tipping the splints with the composition are liable to be attacked by a very distressing disea.se in the lower jaw. catied by the, finites of the phos phorus. This evil, however, may be avoided by the use of amorphous phosphorus, a modi fication of the ordinary kind, which is quite, innocuous and destitute of odor. Another improvement in this industry was made recently in the substitution of parathue for sulphur as the substance to convey combustion to the splint. The very noxious sulphurous fumes which tit ordinary lucifer- match evolves .when lighted are tints done away with attentpu7 have been nanole of late to reduce the liability of matches to htnite 1 ,. v accidental friction. a from _this eau-e very serious calamities have originutvd. An in4enious plan, 1)2; a continental nutnutacturer, retinei9 this risk to a minimum. It consists in dividing the match composition into two parts; the one on the vial of the sprint, and the oilier, containing the llhosphorus, au t!le Edtle of the box. ,By this means, the match will only ignite when rubbed against the box. The statistics9flthe lueiter-mritch Irtanufte titre are very' extraordinary. Austria, which is the great cent of this 'industry, experts about two thousand five hundred tone ni matches annually. One maker sells one thousand lour hiiu.:red matehes for one fhrthing, another ofr4,,i, nye thousand in boxes for fburpenee. In France and Sweden also, the manufacture is very ex:. tensive. In this country two hundred and fifty millions of matches are used daily; which is at the rate of eight per day for every individual. Of this enormous - nuilther, only manufacture one-fifth, the other foar- fifths heing imported from aid continent RETAIL DRY DOODN. 1101 CHESTNUT STREET - LADIES Leaving for the Country or Watering Plata, will Fria!

Instead of a deduction of fifty per cent. on 9(00,060 of bushels of wheat, which would at least have threatened a famine, scarcely more than :. third of that deduction should be made. For three years past the product has been about 1064; to each inhabitant. The crop of Ificr.!, it the COMM' returns are correct, was but tip e and a half bushels to each person.
