THE SIBERIAN RAILWAY.

We lately quoted a letter in a French ma gazine which gave rather a glowing account of a journey on this line. A different view is expressed in the following narrative, taken-by from the Rossiya, and written by Dr. Vadenski. Ho says:

"As my family was rather large, I decided to take first-class tickets, which cost 135 rou bles, or 11 38. Id.; and we were assigned a splendidly fitted out ap rtment for our journey of 270 miles. The rate of travelling wat certainly slow, for four days were allotted for the above distance. On the very first section, sixty miles long, "our train managed to be five hours behind time.

Then a really serious mishap occurred; the pipes used for heating the cars, and which led to the condensar, became frozen, as they had been laid under the flooring of the waggon, and were thus exposed to the open air. The * stoker' ought to love bestowed all his atten tion to the proper heating of the cars; but that was out of the question, seeing that he trad to---* GATION COMPANY, LIMITED, wait upon the passengers and bad many other little duties to perform.. The only way, out of the trouble was to abandon the car, and this we did after we had spent two hours at the station of Kansk in a fuitless attempt to put the beating apparatus into working order. Thus we had to resume the journey in an over-crowded second-class car, for not one reserve car, even a second-class car, was to be procured at any. point in that section of 360 to 460 miles. Thus we arrived at Omsk in Western Siberia, and

"From Omsk our journey was continued in arrecóndelass car, in which we were joined by three sick persons. The accubmodation at the various refreshment rooms was often most in- adequate; thus at no single buffet could we find a piece of white bread, and as a rule we could obtain such only at "intervals of about 140 mites. Great was our joy on reaching Chaliabinsk, for we espied a luxurious first class car. Our joy was premature, for the thermometer hanging inside the car registered only three or four degrees of heat, Reaumur. A

series of long and stormy explanations with the station authorities then followed, and no less than six complaints were entered in the book su thoughtfully provided for the purpose; but it was all in vain, for we had to continue our journey in the second-class car. We had with us engiacer down with fever, and all my child become quite hoarse. Never theless, we could not raise the temperature by so much as one degree, during the whole journey between Samara and Zlatoust,

"At last we arrived at Orenburg; and still our troubles were not at an erd, for I could not get my luggage. I showed the station- master my luggage receipt; and after waiting six weeks I was told that my luggage had not then turned up at Chelaba, Thus, not only did I lose my luggage, but the loss of my clothes prevented me from practising as a sur- geon for the time, and I am still awaiting com pensation from the railway company for this enforced idleness.; Luggage is very frequently lost, and I heard of several cases in which the portmanteaux and boxes had been rifled of their contents in the guard's van and then

All this inconvenience was made worse by being three days' late at Orenburg, but there was some excuse for this unpunctuality, for there had been two derailments a few hours before our train was timed to pass certain points. Although the novelty is wearing off "the frequent accllents, yet die engine-drivers and staker in charge of trains passing over the scenes of the varions accidents 'cannot resist the templution to stop the train while they have a gossip with the natives. I saw one st ker shoot a partridge; then the train slowed down and he jumped of the engine- and picked up the bird,"

A TERRIBLE STORY.

The quiet little town of Poitiers, in France, is at present in a state of almost unprecedented agitation in consequence of an appalling- discovery made there. One of the leading lights of Poitiers society, and one of the most respected of its inhabitants, was a certain M. Monnier, a retired Sous Préfet, a man who headed all the charitable and religious-under- takings in the neighbourhood, and who was considered a person of the highest and host honourable character. He was about fifty years of age, and lived with his wife and daughter in the house adjoining that of his mother, a very vigorous, wealthy, and deter mined old lady of seventy-two years of age. His daughter was engaged to a cavalry officer, a man of good birdrand considerable means, and the marriage was to have taken. place last month.

On Wednesday, May 22nd, the Procureur de la République of Poitiers received an anony mous letter informing him that for twenty-five years a sister of M. Monnier, long believed to be dead, had been sequestrated in one room
