A TRAVELLER'S NOTES.

ACROSS BIBERIATMFOR ̃£28.

An interesting account of the journey to England via Siberia on the RussĪRU Post Train has been received in Shanghai, and is summarized below for the benefit of those who may have a similar. journey in view. "The trip exceeded my widest expectations, says our correspondent. "The food was excellent, and so far from the journey being, tedious, there were Imany days when I did not have time to write my diary. Stoppages, running for hot water, buying food, etc., so filled up time that the thirteen days to Alexan drovo were more like a pienie than a railway Burney."

Briefly the time-table of the journey was as follows: May 2 left Shanghai

This is done on deck, and while the examination is fairly thorough, the stuff is not pulled out of the bags. Special care must be taken to secure a Platz Karte with the ticket; otherwise the passenger will have no place on the train. There is always a rush for these at each station.

If there are two Or more of you travelling together, one man should hop off the train as soon as it stops and dash off to the P. K. Office. There is no way
