THE VERMONT PIICENIX, BRATTLEBORO, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 1892. irronnr t t xTAf A $-,()()(),()()() Sloirlirlti. luiptilnl rolllRnry nt llif Coal r until ltlooil mill Tenra, Winter lias Its joys, unsurpassed by any which siinnner can afford. Who can for get the merry sleiglirldes of his youthful days; young men and maidens crowded to gether, the moonlight, the fringe of the forest, the vast expanse of snow, the jingle of the hells, the shouts of laugh ter, perchance the overturn Into the feath ery dilft, the country tavern with Its blazing, crackling lire of wood, the stamp ing of the young men beating the snow from their hoots, the table spread with all luxuries, the music and games, the return long after midnight. There was a slelghrlde In ltussla, more than a century ago, of such magnitude and splendor as to have been deemed worthy of historic commemoration. Uus sla's Inimoital hlstoilan, Karamsln, has devoted to Its record several pages. It was the month of December, 17011. The celebrated empress Catharine 11. was upon the throne. Frederic of 1'russla and Catharine were conspiring together for an attack upon Poland, that they might di vide that kingdom between them. Fred eric sent his brother Henry to St. Peters burg, ostensibly for a friendly visit, but In reality to mature plans for the treacherous Invasion. During Prince Henry's stay Catharine gave in his honor a moonlight slelghride. The sluigh which conveyed Catharine and the Prussian prince was a beautiful parlor, capacious and furnished with ev ery luxury of the time. It was covered and Inclosed by double glasses In large plates, so that every object without could be distinctly seen. Mirrors were also In geniously arranged so as to multiply and rellcct all the scenes through which they passed. This Imperial sledge, with its gorgeous decorations, was drawn by six teen horses. A retinue of two thousand sledges of the nobility followed. These were alio constructed for the occasion, at a vast expanse, and embellished In the highest style of art. The great dignita ries of the empire, ladies and gentlemen, in showy costumes, crowded these vehicles which were drawn by four, six and eight horses. Expense seemed to have been ut terly disregarded in the preparation of the pageant. Every person except the em press and her guest was dressed in fancy costume and was masked. The night was calm and clear, not a breath of air was stirring, and the full moon lode brilliantly through the star sprejit skies. The road, upon which thousands of laborers had been employed to remove every obstruction, wound along through valleys and forests and mountain gorges. Early in the evening,and with mil itary precision, the brilliant pageant swept from the palace through the streets of St. Petersburg. When two miles from the city, the train passed through a triumphant arch, bla.lng with variegated light. Every mile ot the drive was tlms marked by some grand structure, wldcl: with its j blaze of light, outshone the splendor of the moon;" and In the ingenuity of its devices, with llanies of every hue, extorted incessant exclamations of wonder and de light. There were shafts, temples, pyra mids, colonnades, Illuminating the wintry scene. Opposite each of these structures ball-rooms were reared, the sides composed of double glass, so that everything within could be distinctly seen. Here the peas antry were assembled, in each one a group of a few hundred, from some particular province of the empire, dressed in the gay est of their provincial garb and engaged in their rustle games and dances. The vari ety of costumes and of sports was infinite, ami often grotesque anil amusing in the highest degree. The sledges went slowly by, that all might witness the entertaining spectacle, and then passed on to the next theatric show. All the games and na tional dances were thus witnessed. The national airs were sung or performed by the best trained bands, and all sorts of gymnastic feats, such as vaulting, tum bling and performances on the tight and slaek-ropc, were exhibited. Through such scenes, incessantly re peated, the imperial pleasure-party rode, until a high mountain arose before them, which was opened to their view through a broad avenue cut In the forest. The mount ain was arranged, by a display of lire works, to represent Jlount llccla in one of the most violent of its eruptions. The earth seemed to quake beneath the terrilic explosions. Vast billows of (lame and fiery missiles, of every form and hue, were ejected from its glowing crater hun dreds of feet into the air, descending upon the hill-sides and rolling down the crags in a shower of lire. The spectacle was so sublime as to be almost appalling. In mute astonishment, the pleasure-party gazed up on the wonderful phenomenon in which art seemed to outvie the most mighty of the energies of nature. The region, for leagues around, was illumined with the lu rid glare, which sent a thrill of terror to the peasants far away on the distant hill sides and in the valleys. Again the horses were pushed on, and before the spectators had recovered from the surprise the volcanic mountain had cre ated the train suddenly entered a Chinese village, which had been reared for the oc casion upon the exact model of one of the most picturesque of Chinese towns, and inhabited by crowds ot men, women and children in the garb, and engaged in the j trallie and sports of the Chinese on a fes tive day. The long street through which the train passed was brilliantly illuminat ed, and presented a spectacle as novel as it 1 was entertaining. J The. train passed slowly through the street, and then found that it was i only the majestic portal to the imperial palace of Tzarkosclo. As the sledges drove to the door, they were speed ily emptied of their contents, and the whole courtly throng of over four thous and was sauntering in those saloons which were amply spacious to entertain them all. The palace was lighted with a countless number of chandeliers and wax-candles. The Imperial bands were there, and for two hours the pleasure-seekers forgot time in the mazes of the cotillon. In the midst of the exhilarating scene, the heavy , report of a cannon was heard, and instant ly every musical instrument was still, ev ciy light was extinguished, every voico was hushed, and there was a moment of silence and darkness. Suddenly a magnllicent display of (ire works blazed up, extending in front of the windows of the palace. As tho display faded out, there was another report of cannon, and, as by magic, the candles blazed anew, and a sumpt uous entertainment was served. Every luxury which Europe or Asia could afford was supplied for the occasion. Dancing was again renewed, and as tho dawn of the morning dimly appeared, the revelers returned to their homes. This is undoubtedly tho most brilliant slelghrlde on record. It is said to have cost five million of dollars. To enable kings and nobles to Indulge in such vo luptuousness, tho millions of Itussia were enslaved, doomed to mud hovels.lgnorance, black bread and joylessness from the cra dle to tho grave.

THE PINE NEW BUILDING OF Itul In ii M-itiif;-iit-. Pew of the many people who visit the Central Park menagerie know why a fox terrlcr is to be found in one or other of the inclosurcs In which the elephants are con fined. The majority, doubtless, think there Is something almost cruel about it. As a fact, It is fun to the terrier and a protection to the elephant. It Is really an exempllli catlon of . the fable of the lion and the mouse. There are no greater pests in the menagerie than the rats. These small ras cally rodents have found that the fect of the elephants are excellent eating, and have no hesitation in gnawing at them when the animal lies down, and, owing to Its chained condition, is unable to defend itself against Its puny enemies. This is particu larly the case with "Tip," who, owing to his vile temper and murderous habits, lias to be securely chained. Tho rats in a few nights would make this monster a perfect cripple were It not for "Glp," the terrier, who is always loosened at night, and woe betide the venturous rat that adventures out on a quest for a tidbit of elephant toe. "Tip," rogue though he is, knows his good little friend and allows him to curl up on the uneaten hay, close beside his ponderous body, and when there is a dash across the pen, followed by a mortal squeal, takes no notice of it, except perhaps opening one eye in a lazy way, and then, knowing that he is safe for the night, trumpets a small ote of thanks to his tiny friend and gives himself up to undisturbed slumber and dreams of Indian jungles. Lately the rats have changed their base of operations. It was found that thev were gnawing holes in the thick hide of the rhinoceros. "Fanny," the Scotch ter rier, who really rules the deer house, and Is one of the best ratters In the world, was brought into requisition. She was locked up in the mammal house, and her first night there was one of pure joy. "Fanny" is a most methodical canine. " When the house was opened in the morning she had a pile of 'J7 lats in the middle of the lloor and was wagging a short tail in almost a hysterical manner. After greeting her master, Phil Holmes, site seemed to remem ber there was Mimcthiug else to do, and taking one of the dead rats in her mouth she ran off to where her litter of pups was, just in the rear of the came) shed. She carried four there for the little ones to worry. For the last week "Fanny" has guarded the rhinoceros so well that not a new bite has been seen on the animal, but every morning there is a diminished heap of dead rats on the lloor. The Ni'i-rd of a Happy Home. I have peeped into quiet "parlors" where the carpet is clean and not old and the furniture polished and bright. into "rooms" where the chairs are neat and the lloor car petless, into "kitchens" where the family live and the meals are cooked and eaten, and the boys and girls are as blithe as the sparrow in the thatch overhead ; and I see that it is not so much wealth and learn ing, nor clothing nor servants nor toil nor Idleness nor town nor country nor station, as tone and temper that render homes hap py or wretched. And 1 see, too, that in town or country good sense and Cod's grace make life what no teachers or accom plishments, no means or society can make it the opening stave of an everlasting psalm, the fair beginning of an endless ex istence, the goodly, modest, well-proportioned vestibule to a temple of God's build ing that shall never decay, wax old or van ish away.
