Soplias son, cut off from all equal choice, sent _envoys with Ictters to all the Boyars and Princes throughout tho Empire, commanding tiem to aesist in an examination of the young girls of their respect- ive diutticis, Tich, nable, poor, or serf, that a re- lection might be mado aud the most beautiful seut to Joscow for lus inspection : the inhabi- tauts weio warned that any one who disobeyed o tried to conceal bis daughter would be visited with condign diszrace and punishment. No ono durst disoboy tlie edict: tho young girls were pasved iu review, and 1,500 estcemed. worthy of Libir master's approbation were sent to Moscow. Lo form an 1dea of the facrifice we must try to fancy what Russia was in tlic fifteenth centurs.

Ivan the Tersible, the eecond who adoped this cuntom, murried taree times, and alwazs in the camie fa<hion. His first and 7avorite wife wus the cost, the fail Ancs Iomanoti. When abouttomake a third choico 2,000 girls were tent from every part of the Emyire; of theso, ouly eighty-four nassed the srbsequent oxaminations, and finaily ut twelve, who were then turned over tojhyei- ciann aud midwives for certificatea of Lcalth. Of thus dezen the Czar, after much deliberation, chiuge oue for himself axd one for his son. Thus in two reigus the custom becamo fxed in the manners of the nation, and thepeoplo soom camo to regard it as & right of their daughters, which gave tho humbiest-bora beanty a chance of be- comeing Emuress, Thus, & mrl, who but a few weeks before had been gatliering mushrooms in the fiolds for tho support of her family, came to fing boreelf wife of the Emperor of ali_the Rus- sins, How did she adapt herself to such a posi- tion? How did the autocrats tolerate ber bomely ways? The French commentator on M. Zabieline observes that the differcuce was but slight then between the ¢aughter of the proud- est boyar and the poorest peasent: it is the de- veiopment of education and luxury which makes the true distinction of classes. In Ruseia threo cennries ago ail were nearly equslly illiterate and dirty. 4 < When' the monarch had made his choice the bride-clect was at once treated as su august per~ sonago: ebo was lodged iu the Terem amons the eisters -or danghters of the Czar, in charge of his mother or of ladies of bizh birth sud standiug; tho was piven a coronet such ng tho Tmgerial Princeescs wore, and saluted as Czar- evne ; the nobles and officers 6f tho Court came to kiss the crazs before her—i. e., make onth of fidelity; slo wes publicly prayed for smong the members of the Imperial family, but under a new naine, which ¥he was henceforth to bear, a8 though robaptized for her new life. It was a lifo beset with danger, and the period between the Sovereign's choice and the marringe was the most hazardousof =i for the cbject of hisfavor. Tae mortality of these yonng gris, chosen {rom thourands for their_ beaith as well ae their beauty, was too terrible to be mysterious. So many of them died before they knelt at_the altar or the coronation that the triumph of success did not coneole them for the_terror of the risk they incurred. The Czars of Moscow administer- cd tho Empire ra if it were & patrimony which thoy bad the right to kbaro with their kinsmen and dependants ; the Stale was a more family property. When tho sovereign was young he was general'y eurrounded and controlled by his maternal relatives; the chief posts were occu- pied by the next of kin, secondary onos by those more remotely 1elated, whilo inferior grades were filled by third and fourth cousins; the whole realm was in the hands of one family; the duration of the power of each bas n name n Russian bistory—oremia, *the moment;” the leadors wera Lnown as *‘the men of the mo- ment.” The Czar's marringe was the signal for a zeveral change of Mivistry. It was ratathat the family of the new Czarina did not succeed in ousting the incumtents and seizing on their oflices; & new * moment” was inauguiated ; natu- 1aily. the bride's influenco was used for her owan Telations, and whether +he exerted it or not, their night was recognized. Itis eary to imagine the 1a%0 of the oze party, the greed of the other— ihé furious enmity to which the poor young girl often feil »victim. Plots of tho blackest de- scription were woven round her from the mo- meut when the crown of the Czarevna was pleced on her brow: - every one emploved about the Terem, from those who filled the bighest to those who filled the meanest oflices, became the object of bribes zod intrigues. If she could be made away with before tbe wedding-dey the competi- tion must begin again, with the chanco of the successful candidate beinz a momber of the fam- ily of *‘the moment.” Eut even after the mar- riage she could not feel safe ; Ivan the Terrible's firat two wives died, 2a he believed, of poison; 1o sooner Liad he chosen a third than she sick- encd, 2nd efforts were made to induce Lim to re- linquith hus choice. He persisted: a fortnizht after their union sho was dead. Then his fury broke forth and a terrible butchers ensaed; in us defense before the Bichops of tho Church he professed himself convinced that esch of bi Swives had been_taken from him by poison."— From * Our Monikly Gossip,” inLippincoll's AMaganne for Seplember.” Bt i NS About Footmem.
