ST. PETERSBURG, December 28th. The police have made a large number of arrests in Russian Folamd as the result of the discovery of a secret lesgue, the object of which was to assassinate the Cear. It is thought many persons connected with the conspiracy have taken Light at the knowledge of their plans by the police and will seek salely by fleeing from the country, so the authoriiles have ordered the frontier to be closely watched, and its believed further arrests will shortly be made.
At Milar, the capital of Courland, Baron Hano, a well known land owart, was sentenced to four months' imprisonment for tearing down an imperial coat-of-arms which stood over the door of the court at that place.
In speaking of this gigantle frand the Novos Fremya remarks that if such frauds can be per- petrated in the capital of the empire the appall ing accounts of similar crimes in the famile- stricken provinces cannot be exaggerated.

He was pleased to see there were the names of two gentlemen willing to serve in addition to the retiring Stewards, who | were ready to act again. A good many of the present Sicwards had served many years, and although they felt it a great honour to be elected year after year, still an infusion of new blood was desirable, and he for one would be quite willing to retire.

aiterations. They received on the 31st December three sets of plans from architects in Shanghai, and the Stewards had met several times to discuss the merits of these plans and decide as would seem best in the interests of the members of the Club. The Stewards had come ananimously to the conclusion that, the plans sent in by Mr. Cory were the best suited to the requirements; and the cost of effecting the enfargemet of the Grand Stand and the enclosure, and the repairs and alterations to the Bellevue property, were well within the limit which the members had put. He did not know that he could say more than that the enclosure would be very much enlarged by throwing in a considerable portion of the Bellevue property. The Bellevue stand itself, the lease of which expired early in May, immediately after spring meeting, would be converted into a second-class stand in the same way as the stand at Hongkong was used. The present Grand Stand would be very much enlarged. A platform would be placed in front of it to bring it almost to the line of the present grass plot, The Stewards were of ariston that these alterations and repairs would improve the property very much Indeed, and the amout ex- pended on it would be very well spent. Of course it was possible that some members might prefer to see an entirely new Grand Stand.

Thus the Shanghat Mercury's contespondent on the existing situation
"There is something peculiar, in the wind in the capital, Säul, which at present appeirs diffi. cult to fathom. Placards have been posted all over the place to the following tane, of which what I consider a fairly good translation has been placed at my disposal :--" Koreans,” wish- ing to sell land or houses to foreigners in Sul, must first obtain permission of the magistrate of the quarter in which the property is situated, and All present the title-deeds to be stamped. Koreans are warned' against selling · land'or bosses to foreigners, including Chinese and Japanese, because, where are our officials and people to live by-and-bye? Although treaties have been concluded with foreign nations, still we consider it wrong and abominable to well our inheritance and patrimony for the sake of gain and filthy lucre to aliens to the great detriment of our own people. People found to disobey this injunction by selling landed property to foreigners clandestinely, will be most severely dealt with, and the most rigorous punishments permissible by law will be Inflicted, without any redress whatever, and any price obtained for nich property disposed of shall be confiscated
deemably,"
This afbritrary rule has been enforced already in one instance-An American misionary, who bought same ground with buildings on the same, some time ago, had the title deeds sent to the Foreign Office, to be stamped; but they have been detained there ever since, while, the seller has been arrested, and put in durance vile, and pobody seems to be aware exactly what has become of the poor fellow. Some people are inclined to think it is only intended to check the increasing army of missionaries, who largely outnumber all the other foreigners in the whole country, in direct violation of the spirit of the treaties concluded, which do not recognize missionaries; and the benighted natives may iblok what is cance for the America goose, is also sauce for the Korean gander," and if one side lays a sly breach in solema covenants, the pagans claim, as a quid pro quo, the right to do the same; but the latter, by their proclamation, do it openly. However, the action of the Koreans is a flaring disregard of existing treaties, of which Article N, stoz-distinctly sets forth that foreigners AKC entitled to purchase land and houses at.

I wonder what the two American generals, who ornament the Korean Home Office In Soul as Vice Presidents and Foreign Advisors to the King and Government, have got to say to this latest development of treaty Interpretation. They being styled "general" in the current directories, are they prepated, as warlike people, to cut this Gordian knot Their "generalshlp," however, springs from the U.S. Consular service, in which both "advisors" have held, the rank of Consul General
