A oondition of aSairs similar to that whioh existed in Ireland last winter exiats in Rus- sia at the present day. Bad weather, joined with the peonliar methods of cnltivatiBg tho ground that holds in Russia, has resulted in the almoat entire failing of the crops. The disaster to the crops is confined aot to one portion of the oountiy alone, bat widely aeparated prnvioces report an alarming fall- ing off in the yield of the o«reals. The cost of rye and wheat has greatly increased, while the wage* of the laboring clatses are very poor. The requirements of a Rusaian peas- ant family in the way of cheap bread almost equil their earnings, and the sum left for clothing and other neces sa ry expenses is very small â€" this in times of plenty. Bat in the present condition of affairs the people will suffer great privation. The Ras»isn Government has contracted for a large quan- tity of American grain, and this will be used in relieving the distress of the people in the suffering districts. The grsntiiuc of assist, ance by the government will stay the famine for the present, but a radical reform in the method of land cultivation is needed to place the Russian peasantry beyond the danger that exists in.the present method.

Ireland is still in an awful mess, but the hrag and the blaster will come to nothing. Gladstone and his associates sre very con- siderate, very anxious to do right and to hold the balances fairly. But it will be seen, before the world is very much older, thst they can lay the heavy band of force upon those who bluster and swear aud assassinate and won't listen to reason.

Beauty In Drees. Mr. Haweis, iu a vo nme entitled, "The Art of Btauty," makes the follow ng points with regard to beauty of diesa " The reason that an ordinary low neck with short sleeves look* worse in black than in any other c( lor is because the bard Ine round the bn*t and arms is too gieat a con- trast to the skin. A low neck always les- rens tbe height, and a dark drets made thus lessens it still mire, and it strikes the ar- tistic eye as cutting the body iu pii cet' in this way if yon see a fair person dieeeed in a low dark dress stS'idin^ against .i light background eome « ay ofi, the effect %t ill be that of an empty dress bung up, the fac ' neck, and arms being scarcely iii-ceraible. On the other hand, against a dark back- ground the head and bust will be thr.iwn up sharply, and the whole dress and body will disappear. The effect, common euough, is execrably bad. If you must wear a low black bodice, let it be cut square, living the height of the sh'iulders, (or, better, with the right angles ruunded, for coroera are very trying), and have plejty of white or pale gauze or thin black Let to roften the harrh line between the skin anl thedre a. Wnite gauze or lace soften down tbe blackness of the dress at the ed^e of tie bodici-, and tbia black stuff hiki an equally good effect, as it shades the whiteness of the fek n iuto the dark color of tbe gown. Only uuder thise conditioDS does the sud Jen contrast enhai c ), as some persons soppo e, the f jirness uf tie complexior. "Short women shou'd never wear d u'l'.e skirts or tunics â€" they de( rease the heig it so much â€" unless, indeed, the tunic is tcy short and the si irt very long. S a's do large, sprawling pattei ns used for trimm ngs let these be left to women tall enough to carry them off. Keiibi-r let a very liitle woman wear her hair half dowu her bwk let her lift it clean up as high as possible. " Large feet (honld never be cased i'l kid â€" least of all white kid s'ipper^ â€" for kid re- veals so clearly the form and muvements of the feet, and stretches so easily that few feet have a chance in them. " Those who are very stout should wear nothing but blick thore who are very thin should put a little padding' in their gowns and neither should be in the leaet d*eolUte. Perpendicular ctripe^ in dreiS'S give height and iccrease fullness, and are therefore par- ticalaily suited to very tlight, small neople, and particularly uifitted fur stout figure-." Waifri. The friendship of two womiu is lever snything but a piot against a lb r 1. Woken in genera' know that when a man pleads bii lasions eKqueutly, be is only half in love.

It is no trifliug expense to be a bridesmaid at a faahiooable wedding. Lately a lady hearing another ask her daughter if she was to be an attondaat at a certain wisdding, promptly answered ' No I am tired of pay- ing at leaat a $100 for tbe dress she wears whenever she is a bridesmaid. She has bought dresses for that purpose seven times, and that is enough.' Of course a handsome present is always given by a bridesmaid to the bride, which adds considerably to the cost of her attendacce'ou her friend. The ' best man ' at some weddings i* forced to pay over a good round sum for bouquet* far the bridesmaids. I know of one instance where a young gentleman, who could ill af- ford it, was told that he would be expected to present each of twelve bridesmaiits with a bouquet of rosebods. There were no groomsmen at that wediling, and only six ushers, so the unfortunate best man, after he had accepted the post, was coolly told that he would be requiri.d to provide the round de.zen of bouquets.

But I will tell yon what is coming in next It is the Sarah -Bernhardt elbow augle. It was observed, Saturday night, in its full perfection ai the Bernhardt reception, and then and there many ladies were seen to make an essay at it. The arms are braced lackward and crooked like the wings of t le trussed fowl.

Burmati'sBaby. There is joy in Burmah just now, for one of King Theebaw's graceful consorts has quite recently presented that amiable monarch with a son and heir. It is gratifying lo our national vanity to learn that British profes- sional skill was specially summoned to Man- dalay for the purpose of bringi g. this illus- trious little stranger into the world A Bur- mese baby royal, bom not in the purple, but Buddhist yellow, involves strange associa- tions with white elephants, golden umbr Has, and royal domestic dramas of thrilling inter- est. Mother and child, according to the latest accounts, are doing well. The ha py father is so elated by the achievement of his spouse, Su Hpayah Lat that he has annotuced his in- tention to »ed her younger sister forthwith. This ea.erness on his part to extend his con- nection with her family will probably be re- garded by the youthful wife as a delicate at- tention from a Burmese point of view. In other countries it might be interpreted dif- ferently. Hitherto Theebaw has shone as a monogamist but, as the laws of Burmah jus- tify the sovereign in taking to himself four queens â€" one for each principal point of the compass, among whom she of the south takes precedence over the eastern, northern, and wes ern royal consortsâ€" there can be no ob- jection of any moment raised to the affection- ate impulse which now prompts him to marry his sister-in-law. As he has put to death nearly all his relatives having any claim to the succession, bis majesty can not be too fervently congratulati.J upon the a quisition of an heir, from cu tini; whose thro it he will probab y be deterred by the feelin;8 of a fa- ther and the interests of a dynasty. Trading Xxvor8. Not far from Lickawaxen, Pa., says an exchange, is the home of two young l«diep, sister^, aged re8|iectively 18 and 20 yeiir. They were each receiving the addresses of lover*, who were brother*, and beith couples were en^a^ed to be married. It was the:r intention to celebrate a deuble wedding aboat their holidays, bat now matters have changed. A few days ago the four were sit- ting together in the parior at the girls' home when tbe elder lady expressed a des:re to go to a political meeting then being held in s near-by village. She atked her lover to ac- compauy her, but he refused point blank, giving as his reason that he was not a demo- crat. Tne young lady insisted, hot still he refused. Finally she turned to his brother, who, it seems, was a democrat, and asked hrm to accompany her. To the surprise of all he at once consenteid snd ihey went to the meeting^. The two that remaiued at home were qnite indignant, the one at the conduct of her lover, the other at the way his sweetheart had acted. The more they discussed it tbe angrier they became. Tney discovered that they â€" tbe cues at home â€" were both republicans, while the two who had gone were of democratic proclivities. They talked on, discovering little by little similarities of tastes snd habits, and finally â-  •solved each to break with the o d love and form a ne if all ance. No soon r resolved than the compact waa r t fied by a k ir, when by chance the otheis entered. Tne gentleman told h a brotht r at once what they had decided to do. To his gieat sarprise no sorrow was tbown, no anger mani este*!, aad his wonder wss increased wheu he wa* iu. formed that the other couple, while ou their walk hoiKO, bad re»o ved to do just the caiue thing. Tne bugging, tberefoie, nuw goes on as osnal, aod the weddings wi'l take place about New Year's. A Female Qambler.

She threw uown the Napoleoo, and the croiipie raked it in amid a heap of coin that might be better or even worse spared. At last, one ev ning at the Tuileries, the empress E igenie told the Princess C'lo ilde that she most reqiiest her to procure a new dress on the next occasion that«he dined a' the palace. This brought the previou.s cool- ness to a climax, and ti.e princes* never en- tered t e Tuileries avain. She was often to be seen with her two little boys walking early iu the morning in the gardens of the Palais Boyal but as tuese were almost her only ap- pearances in public, it began to be whisiiered that siae was not on speaking t rms with the empress, an awkward state of things, which na urally ended in the princess being requested to return to her native land.
