RacENTLV the J’bilidclphia Press
took a vole among it subscribers in
order to test public opinion on certain
questions. Eleven hundred persons
voted. Harriet Beecher Btowc was
declared the favorite poet, Webster
the greatest orator, fllaine lltc great
est statesman, and the telegraph the
most u-etui invention. Religion was
votel the source of ttie greatest
amount of happiness. The most re
markable question was, “Would the
substitution of light wines ami malt
liquors for strong alcoholic drinks re
move tits evils of intemperance to
am It an extent as to make further
prohibitory legislation unnecessary."
The vote 'ood, ayes 103, aays, 881.
It is stated there are pleti’y of Rus
sians prospecting in India. Itis said
that litany men of good social standing
who profess to be sportsmen or trav
elers,bring letters of introduction to
high Indian officials, and eagerly
study Hindustani manuals. All those
men gravitate to central India and
Raj out anna. Others uro of the infe
rior grade, and seem too old to be
students, while some again art wo
men. Rossiuti is openly taught in
Calcutta, and there is a respectable
demand for Russian primers and
grammars. These facts are enough
to increase tbe British fear occasioned
by the rapid und steady advance of
the Russian army south from Siberia.
No doubt a very largo proportion of
these tourists and scholars are noth
ing less Ilian engineers and spies in
the employ of the Russian govern
ment. It is possible that they already
have full topographical maps of India
and full information almut the re
sources and condition ofthe country
and the degree of loyalty of the na
tive princes and people.
