He lashed the horse in‘o a run, still covering Bunn with the wrapon, and threatening to shoot him if he stirred.

The interior of a Russian house is not familiar to all, so, under fax'Or of the Lwres and Pennies, we will enter the sacred domicile, first premis- ing that a. well kept house in St. Petersburg or Moscow is exceedingly comfortable. A tall portly suiese (house porter) admits you, when a footman ushers you up a moetly spacious, handsome staircase, often of marble, and after passing through the usual double doors you are introduced into an anteronm where you leave your inevitab e garmentâ€"your fur cl.ak. The reception rooms are then entered, and these often seem interminable; eight or nine in numer in the hcuses on the Palaie or English Quays are not uncommon, generally opening into one another. The inlaid parquets of the rooms are often very beautifulâ€"the floor polisher is an important institution in Bus sis; of course. some rooms are richly car- peted and do justice to the looms of Turkey and Persia. The silk or damask curtains, wall hangings, and coverings for the otto- mans are superb. All is luxurious ; vases of apis-lazuli, porphyry, and malachite, pic- tures. and objects of art in general are in profusion. The Russians are very fond of promenailing through their suites of apart- ments, and ample space is left for this pur- pose. The winter being so long, every con- ceivable means is used to shed around the charms of warmer climates ; trellises, along which various creepers are trained, are in- troduced ; pretty baskets of plants (tulips. hyacinths, and camellias in full bloom, while winter is still raging outside,) the con- stant warm temperature indoors being favorable to their cultivation. The Con- tinental fashion of living in flats much pre- vails here. Sleeping rooms are not invari- ably numerous in proportion to the recep- tion rooms ; but this state of things natur- ally improves with the increase of civiliza- tion.â€" [Temple Bar. A Venetian festival is a. synonym of :31} that is magnificent and romantic. From the earliest history the feces have been events of the greatest popular interest and importance. They have been celebrated mast frequently to perpetuate the memory of some triumph of the Venetian army, and the patriotism of the people has been kept alivu by these fetes quite as much as by the consciousness of commercial importance and power. .- ‘1 - s .- u For centuries the Marian festivals were the meet important holidays of the year. It was a custom introduced early in the tenth century toseleot fiorn the different parishes of the city twelve poor maidensI distinguish-- ed for virtue and beauty, who were pro- vided with dowry at the cost of the State. and fitted out with wedding trosseausfrom the Treasury of St. Mark. The girls were dressed in long robes of white, with loosend ed hair interwoven with threads of gold, and in a rich barge were carried to the Church of St. Peter, followed by u cortege of gayly decorated gondolas. with music and singers. the D036 and Signory accom- pauyinz the procession. Each maiden bore in her hand a small box containing her dow- ry, and met her appointed husband in the church. Mars was celebrated, and the bishop officiated in the msrriage ceremonny. This was the beginnimng of the fete, which lasted a whole week With the growth of luxury and laxity of morals the le,tivsl lost its original character, and it became neces sary to limit its observance, and during the Genovese war, in the fourteenth century. the celebration was nechted and fell into disuse. An incident which happened in the tenth century during the observance of this festival has long been a favorite theme of artists and poets, and illustrates too well the spirit of the day and the isolation of the new republic to be omitted here. The Trieste pirates long watched an opportunity to rob the festal barge of its treasures. both human and monetary, and one fine morning of St. Mary's eve they burst open the doors of the church, surprised the congregation and as- caped with the brides anu treasures. The Dogs, who was present, urged immediate pursuit. Every boat capable of carrying rowers was manned and put to sea in the greatest haste. Venice rose as one man to join the pursuit of the pirates and to assist in the recovery of the brides. The enthus- iasm of the Venetians was so irresistible that the pirates were overtaken and beaten in one of the entrances to the lagoon. Not a pirate escaped, such was the lury of the pursuers, The blides were recovered entire- ly unharmed, and the ceremony of marriage took place with increased pomp the same evening. A case of cremation has occurred at Etretet under very remarkable circum- stances. A rich Indian, the Rajah Abuse- bid Koanderao, with a. suite or 12, came lately to the Hotel des Bains, seared from Nice by the cholera. He died of an anthrax, or oarbuncle, rather suddenly. His friends asked that his body might be burned with Asiatic rites. The Mayor of Etretat, great- ly embarrassed. telegraphed to Paris for instructions. and an authorization was given, but great pains were taken to prevent the public from seeing the unusual spectacle. At ‘2 in the morning the corpse was placed on a. bier on the sands at the foot of one ot the great white cliffs of Ecretat, where it was set fire to, and continued burning to 6 in the morning. There were scarcely any spectators except the native friends of the deceased and some fishermen, who appear- ed greatly astonished at the unusual spec- tacle of which they were witnesses. The ashes, when the incineration was complete, were divided into three portions. One was thrown to the winds, another into the sea, and a. third laced in a. vase to be sent to re- latives in In is.
