" asked the sad passenger , sitting at the corner table in the restaurant. "Yes , sir ; " said the waiter , with the weary air of a man who was tired of having to toll the same lie a thou sand times a day , "Purter-houiio steak , sir ; same as you ordered , sir , " ' 'Do you cut your portcr-houscHtcalc from between the horns this year ? " asked the sad passenger , with the in tonation of a man who wanted to know. "Sir ? " said the waiter. "It seemed to bo a trifle tenderer last year , " the sad passenger wont on , with the air of a tired man indulging in pleasant reministmcoB of the past ; "but I remember now ; it was cut a trifle lower down then. Last year you cut your porter-house steaks from the curl in the forehead and your sir loins from the skin. JUit I think this comes from between the horns.

StPotcr lmrK a Mininlco.nutl Holy Rnuin VoarxiiiiR for Her Holy City. St. IVtershnrjf letter to the London Time * . The object of Poler the Urent in planning this city was to bring Rus sian barbarism into contact with Eu ropean refinement. He created hero a mongrel community in which the European element vastly predomina ted. Ho placed aliens at the head of his battalions , manned his ships with them , lavished on them court digni ties nnd government ofllccs , nnd nl- lowed them the monopoly of trade and industry. St. Petersburg was in extra-territorial capital , as it wore , cosmopolitan , anything but Russian , and any civilization that could lion- from it to the provinces was barely skin-deep. The favor that strangers , and especially Germans , enjoyed at court was so obvious that ovun'as latu as the reign of Alexander L , when that emperor wished to requite the services of a deserving native general and encouraged him to "name his own roVard , " the blunt , veteran answered : "Siro , make mo a ( Jerman. " Recent events have come rather suddenly to awaken the rulers of Rus sia from their pleasant slumbers. A well-m ° annig and not unpopular cair , .after repeated almost miraculous escapes , hns fallen by a knot of assas sins. His son , the present emperor , dooms himself to n hfo of seclusion , ' a'nd is seen out of doors by no man. In this city of Peter , where the Hfo of an emperor , however cheap in the estimation of his kindred and cour tiers , was the most sacred thing under heayon in the eye of his subjects , such a life , without infinite undignified precautions , no longer seems worth a day's purchase. Hns it come to that ? This is , then , no longer the city where Peter's successors were to be mot on foot , on horseback or in a1 small plain drosky , at any hour in any quarter of the town. This is no longer the population among whom , in the great cholera riots of 1832 , when the mob wore storming the hos pitals nnd murdering the doctors , sus pected of spreading the infection by poison , the Emperor Nicholas ven tured out unarmed , and , unattended , entered the church of the hay-iimrkot , where the rioters had their crowded headquarters , and bade them "kneel and cross themselves as he did , and pray the Almighty for forgiveness. ' And they all knelt round him , abashed submissive "al , repentant , , lowing the police to make their way through their ranks and quietly take away the ringleaders to prison. " It seems hardly likely that the nihil ists , reckless and dcspcrata hnwovur they might bo , would have resorted to rcgicido , that last argument of revolutionists , had they not perceived that a revolution in this country , whatever may bo its character , is in evitable mid imminent. The material progress of Russia since her victories of 1812 has been uninterrupted , and with it the influence of public opinion and tlio impulse of national 'feeling have been slowly but unremittingly at work. Wo are here in the midst of n crisis , and , whatever phases it may have'to go through , the njtiniato result must bo a now order of things , thoturning of a now leaf in thu b'ook of Russian history. Russia will liavo to be ro-Russianined ; and audit n .pro . cess pannot be easily applied to this up-start and mongrel , capital , St. Petersburg , as men now find put , was u.mis take. Nota mistake in its founder/B / days , and as it was meant by him to bo ; for Peter destined it , , not for an , idle ) uetropolis , but for n port and trading placu , at a time when Husiian commerce was in its infancy , and could have no other channel. But trade in our day.s has found now inlets and outlets ; railways liavo opened , or are opening , new lines of communication between the cities of the Baltic , Revel , Riga , Libau , etc. , all of them tending to the centre of Russian life and activity of real wealth and productiveness , and micha centre there no longer is , if it ever was , St. Petersburg , but MOHCOW. Tlio cry "Back to Moscow , " which was raised again and again for yearn after this "Rome Turtare , " as Mmo. do Stacl called it , rose from the waters , re sounds MOW in my ears in not loud but deep notes wherever [ go. Takeaway the court nnd the 00,000 men of the garrison , nnd the whole host of thu official world , and thu town would soon bo a desert , because of the vari ous industries which the city boasts , the most flourishing , mich ns thu glots , porcelain , bronze , tapestry , and other manufactures of knickknucks and luxuries , would vanish , with the imperial patronage which culled them into being. The port , which is not at St. Pctcraburg , but at Coimtadt , in an island one hour and a half oft by steam , and whence goods have to bo transported by lighters to and from the city , was never a convenient one at the host of times , nnd would scorn almost impracticable hereafter , for it would load to a mart with nothing but an unproductive desert at the back of it. Ho portentioUH an achievement as n new shifting of the Russian capital would involve the incalculable leas of the treasures which have been lav ished with such mad extravagance and with so little tnsto or sense on its colossal edifices , no doubt ; but what would bo damage to St. Poloisburtf mil-lit turn out gain for the whole na tion , nnd in that case there ought to bo little reason to ho.sita Rut there are stronger motives nan. mere ma terial interests to determine such n removal. Russia has had enough of foreign civilization. She has become intensely national ; and if she did not much liku foreiguuis when she was told that * hu had need of them , she is not likely to har bor moro respect or love to them now , when she is conscious of her power to dispense with them and "far da se.
