pooh-poohs those whose ancestors were expert diplomats when his own were barbaric, he bamboozles the British, his shadow dogs us at every step in the East just as Napoleon's did eighty years ago, when the mere mention of Bonaparte was used to terrify the baby Britisher in the cradle. But there is this difference France owed us nothing in those days; rather we were the deblars. For bad she not given us a new mode of life, when she sent William from Normandy, to say nothing of many a Princess-and principle. Iut Russia is the Russia we know, because we have shown her the way. Till we tok her in hand, not officially perhaps, but none the less practically-Russia was
but a glomerate of hordes of unprincipled tribes. Britain helped to unify them all under the master touch of Peter, and having drilled his armies, and created his navy Britain helped him to extend in every direction, crushing the Turk on the South-West, solidifying the frontier on the West, and pushing far East. In short Britain forged a sword, and put it into the Czar's ambitious hand; and now he threatens to wield it for our own chastisement if he can. He is annexing our methods of expansion, menacing here, and defying there; putting us to infinite expense in keeping a great army on the frontier of our Indian Empire, and parting China, on a Slav scheme, so that we have to look to it lest our prestige in the East be crippled.

This is the chronic significance of the present crisis which a knowledge of Russia's evolution suggests, and it is all the more ironical because this year hanpens to be the two hundredth anniversary of Peter the Great's visit to England, and his carrying off of five hundred. Britishers to help him build his Empire.
"
The Scot was among the firstto invade Russia, Equipped with a magnificent system of cheap education, but offering few opportunities for the ultimate manipulation of these advantages- Scotland had to send her youths over the length and breadth of Europe. Enghnd was too an tagonistic in its aims as yet to utilise this raw material, so the Scot went elsewhere. France with him. The German States gladly availed themselves of his services, and the great reli gious struggles naturally absorbed the military energies of a people ever prone to dwell, on dialectics. Russia, inchoate as it was, did not escape his notice. The infux began in the - reign of Ivan "the Terrible" (1531-184) when history teems with Bruces, Gordons, Leslies, Hamiltons, Carmichael and Dalziels. Boné settled permanently in Russin, and founded families whose names survive in strangely per, verted forms. Thus Hamilton became Khra- mutov, whilst the great poet Lermontov who died in 1841 pointed to a Scotch ancestor, Learmont, Oue of the most notable Britishers in the making of Russia was undoubtedly Patrick Gordon, of whom his great cinnsman Byron wrote:
Then you've General Gordon
Who girded his sword on '
To serve with a Muscovite Master,
To help him to polish
A nature so owlish
They thought shaving heads a disaster, The house of Gordon is divided into two -- great sections, legitimate and natural. This Patrick belonged to the latter, which has given birth to Lord Aberdeen's family, his father awa ing a small estate in the North called Auchleu- chries Young Patrick Goplon once wrote "aliens are scarcely employed in England so that foreign service becomes a necessity."
But Feter had even greater dreams than the reform of his army-he was equally keen on the Navy and to this end he em- ployed many a Britisher. One of these was Thomas Gordon, a Scot who had left nur Navy owing to his close friendship with to induce Peter to invade England. Gordon the Pretender, who was perpetually urging him
was 57 when he quitted England, but Peter at once made him a Rear Admiral, and ultimately Governor of Cronstadt. Far greater than Gor don, however, was another Scot, Samuel Grieg, who left Fife to fight our battle in France. In 1763, he entered the Russian Navy and in seven years was a Rear Admiral. He remodel- led the Russian Navy from top to bottom, dis- cipling the crews and educating the officers, and be also gave Russia his son who was a middy at birth and rose to be a Rear Admiral. It is to him Russia owes its Black Sea Fleet and strange to say his son, representing the third generation, opposed us from the Russian side during the Crimean War, distinguishing himself at the siege of Sebastopol. Another of Peter's great discoveries was a Gloucester man, John Parry, an engineer. In our Navy he lost his arm in 1690 engaging a French privateer. Peter met him in England, engaged him on the spot as comptroller of maritime works at a salary of £300 a year, which during 14 years be drew only once. For this is one of the strange things about the absorption of British brains by Russia. She will give almost anything on generous impulse but hates to pay on her just debts or legitimate contracts.
There are dozens of British either directly or indirectly in Russian service to-day; many of them legitimately and honourably, the less said about the others the better. That Russia has gone as far as not only Great Britain, but other Powers in the East, feel disposed to allow her is indisputable. Whether she will exercise discretion is a matter which can be more safely. discussed when we see the outcome of current events.-N.°C. D. Neris,

Russia was only too glad to take the men England despised. This Gordon found himself in the. Swedish Army fighting the Protestant cause of Gustavus, though he him self was a staunch Catholic. After air adven- turous career, now under the colours of Poland, he entered the Russian Army in 1661 to serve Czar Alexis, finding many of his countrymen with such characteristic names as Douglas, Airth, Keith, Burent, Stuart and Menzies in stalled as officers. From that year to his death 38 years later he assisted materially in making Russia the great Power she indisputably is to- day. It was not a pleasant task. He found the Russians half barbaric.
