When I visited the place there was but one hostel available--a poor Buddhist monastery-which was in a condition of decay and collapse. The income of the place was derived from visitors, though there was a small ten garden. Visitors, apparently, had either been few or stingy -probably both. Be that as it may, there WAB little to attract in the temple it self. It was one-storeyed building, with a pavilion for the rotting idol, and a single guest room at the back of the building, which subjects of rheuma tism would do well to avoid. I remember that I took up my abode in the temple with the idol, until the abbot came up from below and thought my intrusion disrespectful to the god. That a foreigner should presume to lodge under the nose of his supreme highness might cause provoca- tion to acute that he might descend from his throne in the night, whereupon the consequences to mo, so it was said, would be terrible. However, the money which we-we were three-had agreed to pay was important to the scheme of repairs; con sequently an old priest, more than eighty years of age, was dispossessed of his aty.

The Club's team this year will be con siderably different from that which did duty last season, owing to several of the old players being unavailable. Amongst the most important of those whose services the Club not be able to command are: R. Hancock, P. M. Heath, J. T. Dixon, H. Arthur, J. Airy, Commander Bentinck, Captain Davies, Captain Harris and Colonel Mosse. It is also doubtful whether H. Hancock will be able to devote much time to cricket here, while the sad death of Mr A. G.

THE RUSSIAN COURT.

Its Magnificence.

In the Century Illustrated Magazine, Mr Herbert Hagerman, formerly second secre. tary to the American Embassy in St. Petersburg. describes the magnificent ex- clusiveness of the Russian Court. Of coureo no one is invited to a Court ball without having been first presented at Court-a very rare occurrence in the case of for- eignors: -
