POPULAR FEELING IN
RUSSIA.
PROM A 8. PETERSBURG CORRESPONDENT.] I have just made a trip through a considerable part of European Russia and Southern Finland. and while so doing I took the opportunity of studying the effect of the war upon the masses in Russia Everywhere I was assured that tho possibility of wise was not even dreamt of as late as the 6th February, either by the masses and the "popes," by the fiterati and the merchants. On this an easy exonse for this want of fore- sight in the prevailing system of secrecy and official tutelage which by this recent diases stands candorned for ever. Intelligent peoplu charge the Russian Government with having Imon as completely outdone by the Japanese as the stupil jik by the mountebank in the Russiau tulo.

People's Palace" und by his public proclamations against the horrors of war.
Of all effects caused by this war up to the present, I consider this disappearance of an- tagonisin hotween the students and the masses as the greatest change of the situation in Russia proper. For the upholding of the power of the bureaucracy it is about the most dangerous turn that could have come about.

Even more than the craft-guilds of artisans or the guild merchants, the mossen of the movjike und ratiofuels (peasants and labourers). the pedlers and coachmon appreciate the value of erery participation in political manifestations. They are now imbued with the desire of putting in their vote when not only demands for the State but proposals for the betterment of their state are at issue. The ordered displays, of feeling have prepared them for showing their own craving for a form of existence more worthy of human beings. This side-issue of the patriotic arrangements is by many officials declared to be of great political importance, anil even of conslorable dauger to the existing order of things. Those Nihilist "patriots" who shout loudest when the choors are given for the Tear and for the War know how to make espi- tal for their own propaganda. They demon- strate that now the Tour wishes to hear the voice of his people directly, ... without offein intermediation. The most remarkable point is the disappearance of the former distrust of the academic class by the masses of the people. Formerly nothing was easier than to inflame the mob to use their fists freely on the riotous university students. Now tho bystanders listen attentively when an. uniformed lad, who is not even allowed to wear the national cockmile on his regulation cap, cunningly tells them how many rerein it is to Por: Arthar, explaining that beyond Holy Russia the whole of the treo- less and severaly cold Siberian stoppe is to be traversed, until one comes to the vast country ef Manchuria belonging to the Chinese, and that at he further end of it the Japanese are wet, whe received Port Arther by right of conquest ten years ago, but were compelled to code it to the Tsar.
