More than any other of the great towns of the empire proper it has retained its inherited half-Asiatic and Tartaric aspect and characteristics. The proverb commonly attributed to Napoleon 1, "Grattez le Ruese el il vous restera le Tartare," (scratch the Russian and nothing but the Tartar is left for you,) nevertheless requires i|ualideation even in the case of Mi.cow. The times are past when the Russian was only a varnished Mongolian in Kuropean costume. And so it is with regard to the large cities of Kuropean Russia.

K. rounds r THOSI IN I KRKS'I KD IN FRUIT OR FLOWERS i | to inspect MOSCOW. Moscow, built on both banks of the Mosoova and covering nineteen hillsides, has a circumference of about thirty miles. Of its 25,000 larger houses a little over one-half an- built of stone, while 10 per cent, of its dwelling places are in cellars. Among its inhabitants numbering nearly 800,000, there are said to be 20.000 Germans. The city proper consists of four 'rings.'' Circling around the Kremlin is the Kitaigorod, ■■China-town," the seat of the trade; then follow theBjcloigorod,"whiteelty," with grand boulevards and the charming Alexander's Park, and Semljanoigorod, the "Karthtown." Around these and thence the su-burbs of the city are far extending into the plain. While the general aspect of the capital, with its numberless painted :ind mostly gilded cupolas of about four hundred churches, is grai I and highly attractive, the crowd d and narrow streets, for the mo-' part dirty and interspersed with vacant lots and large private wall-ed in estates, offer very little that is pleasing to the visitor's eye. Still, the larger thoroughfares are wide and lined with tine buildings, I, stores and restaurants. II IK KKIM IIS. I n the midst of the town, like the Akropolia of Athens, rises the Kremlin, upon a steep elevation, surrounded by lurreted walls, the historical and architectonic focus ,,f Moscow, one of the most fre-quented pilgrim shrines of Russia, and indeed the most sacred spot in the country of the Muscovites. Providence seems to have held its hand over this "most holy'' taber-nacle of Tartardom. Like Mos-cow's old Tartaric civilization, the walls of the Kremlin have stub-bornly withstood all assaults. Kven the conflagration ol 1812 left "The City of Golden Oomea" compara-tively inviolate, and neither the Corsica!! conqueror nor Western culture were able to take root with-in it. Now. indeed, its bulwarks are here and there breached by the erection of a palace, a treasure building of a cloister. Terraced na reach up to the wall, are raised upon them and behind mem, ilius investing the oppressive orien-tal grandeur with a sort of peace- ' .■ charm, and slowly and calmly winds the Moscova its shallow tround its foot. Within its live gates.among which thai of the Crucifixion is distin-guished by its beautiful Gothic and the image of Christ on the cross, the Kremlin incloses thirty-two churches and a large er of palaces and state build-ing-. The Cathedral of the As-sumption of the Virgin, whose in-terior is nil over in gold, is the •coronation church." At the foot of the steeple ol St. Nicholas's ("a thedral stands Czar Kolokol, the famous great bell of Moscow. Till CIT1. Around the Kremlin extends the Mongolian emporium, which is likewise still encircled by its »n-ci, nt walls and distinguished for its dark, narrow streets and its chaos of dwellings and inmates. He:.- rises a modern palatial edifice by the side of a decrepit old cot tage; there you see a banker's or merchant's office, equipped in Pari-sian style, surmounted by a dity factory with broken windows and r i i '■"_ :_ smokv walls.

With London city this part of Moscow has in common that it is almost without any residences and exclusively given to business. Rut beyond the walls of "Old Town" splendidly built houses and mag-nificent stores flank the wide ave-nues, whose hotels and restaurants vie with those of Paris, Vienna and Rerlin. Yet even here it is better not to look too far below the var-nish and the glittering surface. PUBLIC CEREMONIES. The ceremonies attending the Czar's coronation may be divided into three parts. First, the proces-sion ; second, the coronation, and third, public festivities. The road by which the Czar and Czarina will enter Moscow today is nearly a straight one and slopes from the outer barriers of the city to the gates of the Kremlin. The route taken will be down ibis road from the Petrovski Palace to the Kremlin. The Emperor will ride on horse-back, while the Kmpress follows in a gold carriage. To prevent the crush of crowds into the street and consequent interference with the procession ropes are to be strung along the sidewalks, breast high, and women are allowed to stand bo-hind the ropes. Behind the women stand long rows of men. Karly in the day soldiers will be posted alorg the route to the Kremlin as a pre-caution possibly against anarchists with bombs concealed on their per-sons. Police will bead the proces-sion, according to the programme, the chief of twelve aids leading, and then will follow the Kmperor's pri-vate escort, a magnificent body of men. THE PROCESSION. Then will come regiments of cos sacks and deputies. The finest dis-play will probably be made, 60 far as gorgeousness of attire is con-cerned, by the Asiatic allies of the Czar. These oriental magnificos, with their steeds and housings, their masses of brilliants, rubies, emeralds, pearls and precious stull's, semi-barbaric in effect and wholly barbaric in acquirement, will be enough to take one's breath away. They will .eclipse the high nobility of Russia'that will follow in state carriages in the interminable line after the Kmperor's Arabs and chasseurs, on foot. Each of these antique state carriages will be drawn by six splendid white horses. A relief from these will be the occa-sional glimpse one may catch of bediamoned and bepearled nobles inside the carriages. After the notables have passed there will be a relief again in a blaze of color in the chevalier guards in white uniforms, shining breast-plates and helmets. Above them will tloat the imperial eagle. After the guards, mounted on glorious black horses, have passed, all in silver and gold and with red and yellows plumes waving, the bands "will follow, one after another, play-ing national airs. At this point in the procession the Czar will appear on horseback. Then will follow the Czarina in her carriage drawn by eight horses and attended by the master of the horse, pages and footmen, and fol-lowed by grand duchesses in white and diamonds and riding in red coaches. More troops will follow, more carriages with showy hussars and lancers, and finally squadrons of different regiments and bands in line. On the same day the new Em-peror and Empress will proceed to the Alexandrinsky palace, near the city, whore they will remain until May 25, when there will be a grand review of the troops and the cor-onation will he formally proclaimed by heralds to the people. TUK I'UOI I.AMATION. Tliis is also an Interesting cere-mony and one that is hailed with intense delight by the populace, the proclamation will be made un-der the auspices of a military es-cort. The cavalry will be drawn up in brilliant squares surrounding the approaches to the Kremlin. The general commanding will stand in the middle facing the troops; around him, all mounted and wear ing rich costumes, will be the sec-retaries of the Senate, aides-de-camp, several masters of the cor-onation ceremonies, pursuivants and heralds. The pursuivants will be arrayed in cavalier hats of crim-son, with plumes of yellow, black and white, mantles of gold-colored satin, slashed hose and doeskin riding boots. A signal will be given and the heralds will raise their trumpets and blow a loud blast. The multitude will then uncover and the secretary of the Senate will read the proclamation of the Czar. THE REOAI.IA. On May 25, the day before the coronation, comes the ceremony of transferring the regalia to the Ithroneroom of the Kremlin. The bearers of the regalia will be the assistants of the persons delegated to carry the regalia al the corona-tion in the Church of the Assump-tion. During the night preceding this function they will remain on a table specially prepared for them on the right of the throne. They will be guarded by a detachment of the Grenadiers of the palace and by several gentlemen of the court. On the same day their majesties will remove from the Alexandrinsky palace to the grand Kremlin palace. In the evening of this day a special mass will be cel-ebrated in all the churches. Czar is to be crowned, or rather to crown himself, all thoughts will be centered on the Cathedral of the Assumption, in the Kremlin walls. At an early hour the diplomats, visitors, officials and nobility, all, in fact, who have a billet from the master of ceremonies, will turn their horses' heads toward the great Kremlin gates. There are posted guar.ls in white uniforms and past them must walk the long procession of favored visitors, through the Winter Garden halls to the red stair and to the group of Kremlin churches. The corona-tion functions always take place in the Cathedral of the Assumption, which is the most sacred place in all the Russion dominions. On the afternoon before the cor-onation the Emperor and Kmpress always attend divine service, and perform, behind the golden grating of the shrine of the Redeemer, cer-tain devotional duties which are considered indispensable for the morrow's sacred rite of coronation. The Church of the Assumption in no way corresponds with the ac-cepted idea of a cathedral. It is a building of quadrangular shape, but the separation of the high altar by a partition wall, rainbowed with ecclesiastical paintings and blazing with work of beaten gold, makes the auditorium or nave almost square. The pillars, the walls, roof and lofty dome are covered with plates of gold and glaring colors. There is not a single inch around or above which is not coated with precious stones and metals or plas-tered with frescoes and portaits of the martyrs, saints, patriarchs, prophets, angels, apostles, evange lists, the Virgin, the Holy Trinity and the Eternal Father. The fres-coes furnish a complete pictoral record of the history of the Chris-tian faith. Coated with gold and silver and precious stone—one em-erald alone in an image of the Vir-gin being valued at $50,000—rich in costly shrines, sanctified by the tombs of the vonerated dead, ren-dered sacred by religous traditions, the Church of the Assumption is well calculated to be the scene of the Russian coronations. the far corner are an orchestra and choir that furnish music during the repast. Around them and at some distance are many tables of the royalties, foreign ambassadors and nobles. Has Gold Appreciated in Value. THE ACT OK CRoWNINIi. On the occasion of the corona-tion some 300 of the clergymen of every grade will be present. These will assist the choristers in the musical parts of the services. A space between the pillars of the church will be occupied by a scar-let- covered platform, surrounded by a glided balustrade, and within this railing is always placed a dais supporting two gorgeous thrones. When their majesties arrive at the door of the Cathedral they will be received by the metropolitans of Moscow, Kleff and Novgorod, who will present them with the cross and holy water. After bowing thrice before the altar their majes-ties will ascend the steps and take their stand in front of the altar, with their backs to the thrones. The metropolitan of Novgorod will then approach and require the Emperor to read aloud the ortho-dox creed. This finished, assisted by high dignitaries and the other two metropolitans, the Czar will don the imperial mantle, which is presented to him on two sumptuous cushions. This robe is made of cloth of gold, with a border of er-mine. The Czar will then bow his head, while one of the prelates will utter a prayer. The Emperor will then receive the crown from the metropolitan of Novgorod. Then, taking his scepter in the right hand and the globe of the empire in his left, he will seat himself, the Empress still standing. Then the Emperor will kneel and read aloud a prayer. This concluded, one of the prelates will make a short ad-dress on the ilutie- of the olllee. Then will follow a mass, after which the imperial couple will de-scend from the dais and will be proclaimed as among the Lord's annointed. The Emperor will then take off his crown and touch with it the forehead of the Empress, who will kneel before him on a vel-vet cushion. After this be will place upon her head her own crown, and she will also be robed in an imperial mantle. The leading prelates, with a twig of gold, will then sprinkle the fore-head, the eyelids, the nostrils, the lips, the ears, the breast and the hands of the Emperor with the consecrated oil. Another prelate will wipe the parts. Their majes-ties will then partake of the com-munion and the ceremony will con-clude with again kissing the cross. Then the royal pair will proceed under a canopy held aloft by guard! to salute the tomb of their ances-tors and kiss the holy relics. UAMULET AND POP! I.AR PBTES. A grand fete will follow the cor-onation. On the three succeeding days—namely, May 27, 28 and 29 —the imperial pair will receive congratulations at the Kremlin. Third in the order of attendant ceremonies at the coronation are the imperial banquet on the night of May 27, and the popular, or what are termed popular, rejoic-ings. The Russians celebrate such events in a much more quiet way than among Anglo-Saxon people. Their cheers are not strong and hearty. They wouldn't understand an American college yell. Theim- The argument with which the free coiners of silver have produced the greatest effect upon fair-minded men, who are endeavoring to ascer-tain the real truth of the free sil-ver case, is that gold has so appre-ciated in value that the prices of all things have greatly fallen. They say, therefore, that what is called the fall in the value of sil-ver is not really a fall in the value of silver at all, but a great rise in the value of gold. We propose to put that theory to the test in the light of certain established facts that cannot be controverted. In answer to the claim that a Mexican silver dollar would buy as much today as it would buy twenty years ago, and that the reason a Mexican gold dollar would today buy two Mexican silver dollars was because the gold bad doubled in value, while the silver stood at the same value, on Saturday we quoteil the prices of certain articles as of 1H"0\ which was twenty years ago, and of 1891, anil those prices show-ed that the silver dollar would not buy as much in 1891 as it bought in I >7i'., and as it has depreciated since 1H.I1 considerably below what it then was, of course, it will not buy as much today of the articles referred to as it would buy in 1891. As the figures we then quoted have at material a bearing on the subject now under discussion as they had on the Mexican dollar, we shall make no apology for reproducing them, as follows: In Jury, 187C. the price of rough hemp in Cincinnati was $110 per ton, and in July, 1891, it was $115 per ton. Rye No. 2 was in Cincin-nati in October, 1876, 00 cents a bushel, and in October, 1891, il was 88 cents a bushel. Heans in Huston were, in January, 1870, $1.75 per bushel, and in January, 1891, $2 15 per bushel. Rio coffee, fair, in New York, was, in January. 1876, 17J cents a pound, and in July, 1891, it was 18J cents a pound. Eggs were, in New York, in October, 1876, 16 to 18 cents a dozen, and in October, 1891, they were from 20 to 22 cents. Codfish was in New York in May, 1876, 8 cents a pound, and in May, 1891, 11 cents a pound. Herrings, in Boston, were in September, 1870, $3.75 per barrel, and in September, 1891, were $3.50 per barrel. Salt mackerel, shore, No. 1, was in Bos-ton in 1876 (no month given), $15 50 per barrel, and in October, 1891, $24 per barrel. Mackertl, No. 2, was in Boston, in 1876, $6 75. and in October, 1891, was $11 Spice, mustard, best domestic, were in Januarv, 1876, .2170 per pound, and in October, 1891, were .2185. These are the gold prices at the respective dates, and they are taken from the report of the Senate Com-mittee on Prices, made at the sec-ond session of the Fifty-second Congress, Volume II. Their ac-curacy never has been and cannot be disputed. Now, in 1891 the silver dollar stood in regard to the gold dollar as 75 cents to 100 cents. That is, if took 100 cents in gold to buy a thing in 1891, it took 125 cents in silver to buy it then. Very well. Take the case of hemp in the above statement. The bullion in one hun-dred and ten gold dollars would buy a ton of hemp in 1876, and the bullion in one hundred and ten sil-ver dollars would do the same. But in 1891 the bullion in one hun-dred and fifteen gold dollars would buy a ton of hemp, tut it required the bullion in one hundred and forty-three dollars and seventy-live cents of silver dollars to buy that ton then. Now, whether gold has appreciated in respect to other things or not, it cannot be denied that it is silver that has depreciat-ed in respect to gold, when they art-tested by hemp; for here is gold buying almost the identical qiian tity of hemp in 1891 as it bought in 1876, while silver is buying 25 per cent, less of it. The way to test the matter is to take hemp as the purchasing agent and to look after gold and silver as the things to be bought. Thus tested, we find that a ton of hemp would buy the bullion in one bun nd ten silver dollars in that 1891 a ton of hemp It does not treat the case fully to make these comparisons with 1876 as the starting point. The demon-, etizing act was passed in 1S73, and' that is the point at which compari-' Sons should start. When that is! done, the results are very startling indeed. We will quote the var\ ing prices of a few articles, from the same Senate report, beginning with corn: Corn in New York, in April, 1873, was 61 cents a bushel; in October, 1894, was '.i.Vl cents; in July, 1.176, was 58 cents; in Jan-nary, 187S, was (II cents; in Janu-ary, 1879, was-171 cents; in July, 1883, was 80, cents; in January, 1885, was 56 cents; in April, 1888,| ' was 61 cents; in April, l.x'.io, was 36j cents, and in April, 1891, was 79J cents. Now, in all of thai time the sil-ver dollar was going steadily down, down, down, while corn was some-times going up and sometimes go-ing down. How is that to be ac-counted for if gold was appreciat-ing, and if the falls that took place in the prices of corn were due to the appreciation of gold? The ap preciation of gold could not possi-bly cause corn to fall and to rise, too. In commencing this article, we had intended to give the fluctua-tion! in the prices of a number of articles, such as hemp, oats, rye, wheat, lard, and pork, but it would carry it to too great a length, and they all tell exactly the same story that corn tells. If the case is looked at fairly, the evidence is overwhelming that; silver has greatly depreciated in value, whether goid has appreciat-ed or not. of which we can find no sort of evidence, and that the bless-ed fall in I lie prices of everything is not due to any appreciation in the value of gold, but to the im-proved methods of producing those things.— Richmond Times. -A- ZR^IL-RO-A-ID CE3STTEJf?.. in-.- •CTOu labor, a|. < impri MMuilcrai piani-.

DHHC1GISTM. I'nstollii We take from the Washington Post the followingeditorial article : THE SOI TH IN (ASK OF WAR.— Referring to the possibility of trou hie between Spain and the I'nited States, a newspaper in Havana made, the other day, (pnte a num-ber of idiotic remarks and prophe-cies. Most of the papers in this part of the country passed them by with the good-humored contempt they deserved, hut the New Orleans States has seen lit to discuss them with characteristic vigor: '•La < 'orrcspondencia, a newspa-per published in Havana, calls on Spain to declare war against the Unite i States immediately, and predicts that as soon as the procla-mation is issued by the (dries the S iiitbern States will secede, as they did in 1861; that Mexico will at once invade and take possession ot Texas, California, Arizona and New Mexico, and the great Ameri-can republic will be dismembered and rendered powerless to cope with the army and navy of Spain. It is quite evident that the editor of La Correspondencia has a head on his shoulders which contains about as much brains as can be found in a baby's raitlebox. In the event of war the first section of this country that Spain would hear from in a very unpleasant manner would be the Southern States, and so far as Mexico invading this country is concerned the idea i- so absurd that even the burros have to laugh in their peculiar way." Of course, it is perfectly well un-derstood throughout the country that, with the single exception of the Charleston News and Courier, no person or thing south of the Ohio and Potomac rivers dreams of seceding from the Union, or could he induced to consider it for one Heeling moment as a serious propo-sition. The fact is that the na-tional spirit is stronger all In-Smi ih than in any other part of the coun-try, and tliis for the very sufficient reason that only in the South is there an overwhelming majority of native born Americans. There alone does one hear the English language spoken by ninety-nine out of every hundred people one meets. OARTLANO Merchant..Tailor HAS BKCJHVED THE Sl'ltlXU ■ l/.r'.s .I.V/( M.I.

More than any other of the great towns of the empire proper it has retained its inherited half-Asiatic and Tartaric aspect and characteristics. The proverb commonly attributed to Napoleon 1, "Grattez le Ruese el il vous restera le Tartare," (scratch the Russian and nothing but the Tartar is left for you,) nevertheless requires i|ualideation even in the case of Mi.cow. The times are past when the Russian was only a varnished Mongolian in Kuropean costume. And so it is with regard to the large cities of Kuropean Russia.

K. rounds r THOSI IN I KRKS'I KD IN FRUIT OR FLOWERS i | to inspect MOSCOW. Moscow, built on both banks of the Mosoova and covering nineteen hillsides, has a circumference of about thirty miles. Of its 25,000 larger houses a little over one-half an- built of stone, while 10 per cent, of its dwelling places are in cellars. Among its inhabitants numbering nearly 800,000, there are said to be 20.000 Germans. The city proper consists of four 'rings.'' Circling around the Kremlin is the Kitaigorod, ■■China-town," the seat of the trade; then follow theBjcloigorod,"whiteelty," with grand boulevards and the charming Alexander's Park, and Semljanoigorod, the "Karthtown." Around these and thence the su-burbs of the city are far extending into the plain. While the general aspect of the capital, with its numberless painted :ind mostly gilded cupolas of about four hundred churches, is grai I and highly attractive, the crowd d and narrow streets, for the mo-' part dirty and interspersed with vacant lots and large private wall-ed in estates, offer very little that is pleasing to the visitor's eye. Still, the larger thoroughfares are wide and lined with tine buildings, I, stores and restaurants. II IK KKIM IIS. I n the midst of the town, like the Akropolia of Athens, rises the Kremlin, upon a steep elevation, surrounded by lurreted walls, the historical and architectonic focus ,,f Moscow, one of the most fre-quented pilgrim shrines of Russia, and indeed the most sacred spot in the country of the Muscovites. Providence seems to have held its hand over this "most holy'' taber-nacle of Tartardom. Like Mos-cow's old Tartaric civilization, the walls of the Kremlin have stub-bornly withstood all assaults. Kven the conflagration ol 1812 left "The City of Golden Oomea" compara-tively inviolate, and neither the Corsica!! conqueror nor Western culture were able to take root with-in it. Now. indeed, its bulwarks are here and there breached by the erection of a palace, a treasure building of a cloister. Terraced na reach up to the wall, are raised upon them and behind mem, ilius investing the oppressive orien-tal grandeur with a sort of peace- ' .■ charm, and slowly and calmly winds the Moscova its shallow tround its foot. Within its live gates.among which thai of the Crucifixion is distin-guished by its beautiful Gothic and the image of Christ on the cross, the Kremlin incloses thirty-two churches and a large er of palaces and state build-ing-. The Cathedral of the As-sumption of the Virgin, whose in-terior is nil over in gold, is the •coronation church." At the foot of the steeple ol St. Nicholas's ("a thedral stands Czar Kolokol, the famous great bell of Moscow. Till CIT1. Around the Kremlin extends the Mongolian emporium, which is likewise still encircled by its »n-ci, nt walls and distinguished for its dark, narrow streets and its chaos of dwellings and inmates. He:.- rises a modern palatial edifice by the side of a decrepit old cot tage; there you see a banker's or merchant's office, equipped in Pari-sian style, surmounted by a dity factory with broken windows and r i i '■"_ :_ smokv walls.

With London city this part of Moscow has in common that it is almost without any residences and exclusively given to business. Rut beyond the walls of "Old Town" splendidly built houses and mag-nificent stores flank the wide ave-nues, whose hotels and restaurants vie with those of Paris, Vienna and Rerlin. Yet even here it is better not to look too far below the var-nish and the glittering surface. PUBLIC CEREMONIES. The ceremonies attending the Czar's coronation may be divided into three parts. First, the proces-sion ; second, the coronation, and third, public festivities. The road by which the Czar and Czarina will enter Moscow today is nearly a straight one and slopes from the outer barriers of the city to the gates of the Kremlin. The route taken will be down ibis road from the Petrovski Palace to the Kremlin. The Emperor will ride on horse-back, while the Kmpress follows in a gold carriage. To prevent the crush of crowds into the street and consequent interference with the procession ropes are to be strung along the sidewalks, breast high, and women are allowed to stand bo-hind the ropes. Behind the women stand long rows of men. Karly in the day soldiers will be posted alorg the route to the Kremlin as a pre-caution possibly against anarchists with bombs concealed on their per-sons. Police will bead the proces-sion, according to the programme, the chief of twelve aids leading, and then will follow the Kmperor's pri-vate escort, a magnificent body of men. THE PROCESSION. Then will come regiments of cos sacks and deputies. The finest dis-play will probably be made, 60 far as gorgeousness of attire is con-cerned, by the Asiatic allies of the Czar. These oriental magnificos, with their steeds and housings, their masses of brilliants, rubies, emeralds, pearls and precious stull's, semi-barbaric in effect and wholly barbaric in acquirement, will be enough to take one's breath away. They will .eclipse the high nobility of Russia'that will follow in state carriages in the interminable line after the Kmperor's Arabs and chasseurs, on foot. Each of these antique state carriages will be drawn by six splendid white horses. A relief from these will be the occa-sional glimpse one may catch of bediamoned and bepearled nobles inside the carriages. After the notables have passed there will be a relief again in a blaze of color in the chevalier guards in white uniforms, shining breast-plates and helmets. Above them will tloat the imperial eagle. After the guards, mounted on glorious black horses, have passed, all in silver and gold and with red and yellows plumes waving, the bands "will follow, one after another, play-ing national airs. At this point in the procession the Czar will appear on horseback. Then will follow the Czarina in her carriage drawn by eight horses and attended by the master of the horse, pages and footmen, and fol-lowed by grand duchesses in white and diamonds and riding in red coaches. More troops will follow, more carriages with showy hussars and lancers, and finally squadrons of different regiments and bands in line. On the same day the new Em-peror and Empress will proceed to the Alexandrinsky palace, near the city, whore they will remain until May 25, when there will be a grand review of the troops and the cor-onation will he formally proclaimed by heralds to the people. TUK I'UOI I.AMATION. Tliis is also an Interesting cere-mony and one that is hailed with intense delight by the populace, the proclamation will be made un-der the auspices of a military es-cort. The cavalry will be drawn up in brilliant squares surrounding the approaches to the Kremlin. The general commanding will stand in the middle facing the troops; around him, all mounted and wear ing rich costumes, will be the sec-retaries of the Senate, aides-de-camp, several masters of the cor-onation ceremonies, pursuivants and heralds. The pursuivants will be arrayed in cavalier hats of crim-son, with plumes of yellow, black and white, mantles of gold-colored satin, slashed hose and doeskin riding boots. A signal will be given and the heralds will raise their trumpets and blow a loud blast. The multitude will then uncover and the secretary of the Senate will read the proclamation of the Czar. THE REOAI.IA. On May 25, the day before the coronation, comes the ceremony of transferring the regalia to the Ithroneroom of the Kremlin. The bearers of the regalia will be the assistants of the persons delegated to carry the regalia al the corona-tion in the Church of the Assump-tion. During the night preceding this function they will remain on a table specially prepared for them on the right of the throne. They will be guarded by a detachment of the Grenadiers of the palace and by several gentlemen of the court. On the same day their majesties will remove from the Alexandrinsky palace to the grand Kremlin palace. In the evening of this day a special mass will be cel-ebrated in all the churches. Czar is to be crowned, or rather to crown himself, all thoughts will be centered on the Cathedral of the Assumption, in the Kremlin walls. At an early hour the diplomats, visitors, officials and nobility, all, in fact, who have a billet from the master of ceremonies, will turn their horses' heads toward the great Kremlin gates. There are posted guar.ls in white uniforms and past them must walk the long procession of favored visitors, through the Winter Garden halls to the red stair and to the group of Kremlin churches. The corona-tion functions always take place in the Cathedral of the Assumption, which is the most sacred place in all the Russion dominions. On the afternoon before the cor-onation the Emperor and Kmpress always attend divine service, and perform, behind the golden grating of the shrine of the Redeemer, cer-tain devotional duties which are considered indispensable for the morrow's sacred rite of coronation. The Church of the Assumption in no way corresponds with the ac-cepted idea of a cathedral. It is a building of quadrangular shape, but the separation of the high altar by a partition wall, rainbowed with ecclesiastical paintings and blazing with work of beaten gold, makes the auditorium or nave almost square. The pillars, the walls, roof and lofty dome are covered with plates of gold and glaring colors. There is not a single inch around or above which is not coated with precious stones and metals or plas-tered with frescoes and portaits of the martyrs, saints, patriarchs, prophets, angels, apostles, evange lists, the Virgin, the Holy Trinity and the Eternal Father. The fres-coes furnish a complete pictoral record of the history of the Chris-tian faith. Coated with gold and silver and precious stone—one em-erald alone in an image of the Vir-gin being valued at $50,000—rich in costly shrines, sanctified by the tombs of the vonerated dead, ren-dered sacred by religous traditions, the Church of the Assumption is well calculated to be the scene of the Russian coronations. the far corner are an orchestra and choir that furnish music during the repast. Around them and at some distance are many tables of the royalties, foreign ambassadors and nobles. Has Gold Appreciated in Value. THE ACT OK CRoWNINIi. On the occasion of the corona-tion some 300 of the clergymen of every grade will be present. These will assist the choristers in the musical parts of the services. A space between the pillars of the church will be occupied by a scar-let- covered platform, surrounded by a glided balustrade, and within this railing is always placed a dais supporting two gorgeous thrones. When their majesties arrive at the door of the Cathedral they will be received by the metropolitans of Moscow, Kleff and Novgorod, who will present them with the cross and holy water. After bowing thrice before the altar their majes-ties will ascend the steps and take their stand in front of the altar, with their backs to the thrones. The metropolitan of Novgorod will then approach and require the Emperor to read aloud the ortho-dox creed. This finished, assisted by high dignitaries and the other two metropolitans, the Czar will don the imperial mantle, which is presented to him on two sumptuous cushions. This robe is made of cloth of gold, with a border of er-mine. The Czar will then bow his head, while one of the prelates will utter a prayer. The Emperor will then receive the crown from the metropolitan of Novgorod. Then, taking his scepter in the right hand and the globe of the empire in his left, he will seat himself, the Empress still standing. Then the Emperor will kneel and read aloud a prayer. This concluded, one of the prelates will make a short ad-dress on the ilutie- of the olllee. Then will follow a mass, after which the imperial couple will de-scend from the dais and will be proclaimed as among the Lord's annointed. The Emperor will then take off his crown and touch with it the forehead of the Empress, who will kneel before him on a vel-vet cushion. After this be will place upon her head her own crown, and she will also be robed in an imperial mantle. The leading prelates, with a twig of gold, will then sprinkle the fore-head, the eyelids, the nostrils, the lips, the ears, the breast and the hands of the Emperor with the consecrated oil. Another prelate will wipe the parts. Their majes-ties will then partake of the com-munion and the ceremony will con-clude with again kissing the cross. Then the royal pair will proceed under a canopy held aloft by guard! to salute the tomb of their ances-tors and kiss the holy relics. UAMULET AND POP! I.AR PBTES. A grand fete will follow the cor-onation. On the three succeeding days—namely, May 27, 28 and 29 —the imperial pair will receive congratulations at the Kremlin. Third in the order of attendant ceremonies at the coronation are the imperial banquet on the night of May 27, and the popular, or what are termed popular, rejoic-ings. The Russians celebrate such events in a much more quiet way than among Anglo-Saxon people. Their cheers are not strong and hearty. They wouldn't understand an American college yell. Theim- The argument with which the free coiners of silver have produced the greatest effect upon fair-minded men, who are endeavoring to ascer-tain the real truth of the free sil-ver case, is that gold has so appre-ciated in value that the prices of all things have greatly fallen. They say, therefore, that what is called the fall in the value of sil-ver is not really a fall in the value of silver at all, but a great rise in the value of gold. We propose to put that theory to the test in the light of certain established facts that cannot be controverted. In answer to the claim that a Mexican silver dollar would buy as much today as it would buy twenty years ago, and that the reason a Mexican gold dollar would today buy two Mexican silver dollars was because the gold bad doubled in value, while the silver stood at the same value, on Saturday we quoteil the prices of certain articles as of 1H"0\ which was twenty years ago, and of 1891, anil those prices show-ed that the silver dollar would not buy as much in 1891 as it bought in I >7i'., and as it has depreciated since 1H.I1 considerably below what it then was, of course, it will not buy as much today of the articles referred to as it would buy in 1891. As the figures we then quoted have at material a bearing on the subject now under discussion as they had on the Mexican dollar, we shall make no apology for reproducing them, as follows: In Jury, 187C. the price of rough hemp in Cincinnati was $110 per ton, and in July, 1891, it was $115 per ton. Rye No. 2 was in Cincin-nati in October, 1876, 00 cents a bushel, and in October, 1891, il was 88 cents a bushel. Heans in Huston were, in January, 1870, $1.75 per bushel, and in January, 1891, $2 15 per bushel. Rio coffee, fair, in New York, was, in January. 1876, 17J cents a pound, and in July, 1891, it was 18J cents a pound. Eggs were, in New York, in October, 1876, 16 to 18 cents a dozen, and in October, 1891, they were from 20 to 22 cents. Codfish was in New York in May, 1876, 8 cents a pound, and in May, 1891, 11 cents a pound. Herrings, in Boston, were in September, 1870, $3.75 per barrel, and in September, 1891, were $3.50 per barrel. Salt mackerel, shore, No. 1, was in Bos-ton in 1876 (no month given), $15 50 per barrel, and in October, 1891, $24 per barrel. Mackertl, No. 2, was in Boston, in 1876, $6 75. and in October, 1891, was $11 Spice, mustard, best domestic, were in Januarv, 1876, .2170 per pound, and in October, 1891, were .2185. These are the gold prices at the respective dates, and they are taken from the report of the Senate Com-mittee on Prices, made at the sec-ond session of the Fifty-second Congress, Volume II. Their ac-curacy never has been and cannot be disputed. Now, in 1891 the silver dollar stood in regard to the gold dollar as 75 cents to 100 cents. That is, if took 100 cents in gold to buy a thing in 1891, it took 125 cents in silver to buy it then. Very well. Take the case of hemp in the above statement. The bullion in one hun-dred and ten gold dollars would buy a ton of hemp in 1876, and the bullion in one hundred and ten sil-ver dollars would do the same. But in 1891 the bullion in one hun-dred and fifteen gold dollars would buy a ton of hemp, tut it required the bullion in one hundred and forty-three dollars and seventy-live cents of silver dollars to buy that ton then. Now, whether gold has appreciated in respect to other things or not, it cannot be denied that it is silver that has depreciat-ed in respect to gold, when they art-tested by hemp; for here is gold buying almost the identical qiian tity of hemp in 1891 as it bought in 1876, while silver is buying 25 per cent, less of it. The way to test the matter is to take hemp as the purchasing agent and to look after gold and silver as the things to be bought. Thus tested, we find that a ton of hemp would buy the bullion in one bun nd ten silver dollars in that 1891 a ton of hemp It does not treat the case fully to make these comparisons with 1876 as the starting point. The demon-, etizing act was passed in 1S73, and' that is the point at which compari-' Sons should start. When that is! done, the results are very startling indeed. We will quote the var\ ing prices of a few articles, from the same Senate report, beginning with corn: Corn in New York, in April, 1873, was 61 cents a bushel; in October, 1894, was '.i.Vl cents; in July, 1.176, was 58 cents; in Jan-nary, 187S, was (II cents; in Janu-ary, 1879, was-171 cents; in July, 1883, was 80, cents; in January, 1885, was 56 cents; in April, 1888,| ' was 61 cents; in April, l.x'.io, was 36j cents, and in April, 1891, was 79J cents. Now, in all of thai time the sil-ver dollar was going steadily down, down, down, while corn was some-times going up and sometimes go-ing down. How is that to be ac-counted for if gold was appreciat-ing, and if the falls that took place in the prices of corn were due to the appreciation of gold? The ap preciation of gold could not possi-bly cause corn to fall and to rise, too. In commencing this article, we had intended to give the fluctua-tion! in the prices of a number of articles, such as hemp, oats, rye, wheat, lard, and pork, but it would carry it to too great a length, and they all tell exactly the same story that corn tells. If the case is looked at fairly, the evidence is overwhelming that; silver has greatly depreciated in value, whether goid has appreciat-ed or not. of which we can find no sort of evidence, and that the bless-ed fall in I lie prices of everything is not due to any appreciation in the value of gold, but to the im-proved methods of producing those things.— Richmond Times. -A- ZR^IL-RO-A-ID CE3STTEJf?.. in-.- •CTOu labor, a|. < impri MMuilcrai piani-.

DHHC1GISTM. I'nstollii We take from the Washington Post the followingeditorial article : THE SOI TH IN (ASK OF WAR.— Referring to the possibility of trou hie between Spain and the I'nited States, a newspaper in Havana made, the other day, (pnte a num-ber of idiotic remarks and prophe-cies. Most of the papers in this part of the country passed them by with the good-humored contempt they deserved, hut the New Orleans States has seen lit to discuss them with characteristic vigor: '•La < 'orrcspondencia, a newspa-per published in Havana, calls on Spain to declare war against the Unite i States immediately, and predicts that as soon as the procla-mation is issued by the (dries the S iiitbern States will secede, as they did in 1861; that Mexico will at once invade and take possession ot Texas, California, Arizona and New Mexico, and the great Ameri-can republic will be dismembered and rendered powerless to cope with the army and navy of Spain. It is quite evident that the editor of La Correspondencia has a head on his shoulders which contains about as much brains as can be found in a baby's raitlebox. In the event of war the first section of this country that Spain would hear from in a very unpleasant manner would be the Southern States, and so far as Mexico invading this country is concerned the idea i- so absurd that even the burros have to laugh in their peculiar way." Of course, it is perfectly well un-derstood throughout the country that, with the single exception of the Charleston News and Courier, no person or thing south of the Ohio and Potomac rivers dreams of seceding from the Union, or could he induced to consider it for one Heeling moment as a serious propo-sition. The fact is that the na-tional spirit is stronger all In-Smi ih than in any other part of the coun-try, and tliis for the very sufficient reason that only in the South is there an overwhelming majority of native born Americans. There alone does one hear the English language spoken by ninety-nine out of every hundred people one meets. OARTLANO Merchant..Tailor HAS BKCJHVED THE Sl'ltlXU ■ l/.r'.s .I.V/( M.I.
