_MoIcew, Fao. 25.-The most sacred image in Russia has been sent to St. Petersburg, and it will be taken later to the Far East with the army. This image is a representation of the Virgin appear- ing to St. Ssrgius, and is always kept at the Troitzko monastery. It is about Due foot square and is covered with preclousl stones. The image has a remarkable history. It accompanied Alexis, Peter the Great and Alexander I. on all their
campaigns.

Sr. Pmsnsnuso, I3’eb.25.-The irrita-
tion against the United States On account of the supposed unfriendly at-titude cf that country toward Russia, which was slightly noticeable through-out the nego- tiations, seems to have become daily more pronounced, and since the Vicksburg in- cident at Chemuipo (whanlhe commander of the American gunbcat is said to have refused tc unite with the commanders
of other foreign warships at Chemulpo
to protest against the Japanese firing on the Russian worships Varlag and Korietz, and the fact that the Vicks- burgdid not take on board survivors of the Russian ships). American busi- ness men here are really alarmed concern-
ing the possible effect upon American trade. \Vithln the last few days orders
for American goods have been counter-
manded, the only explanation given being that the prospective purchasers did not desire to buy American goods under th e present circumstances. U. S.Consul Gen- eral Watts has been appealed to in the case ofan American firm which had a
large contract having been psreniptorlly cancelled. Ordersforthe lulportaf/IDD Of a big consignment of wood pulp have also been countermanded. the intending pur-
chaser saying in his letter that he could not be expected to do business with America after the Vicksburg incident, Mr Watts hes felt it

partment, pointing out the state of public feeling here and the great pi-espegghe damage to American trade unless mea- sures were taken to allay the irritation. Americana here believe that an official
explanation of the Vicksburg incident would he opportune sad have an excellent effect.
Few as are the people who can imagine
a battlefield ca shore, they are vastly few- er who can picture with any certainty the scene of a naval ccniilct.
And this, of course, more so now than
Britain became the sci areign Power at sea, and her wooden walls were handled and fought through whole days in closest proximity with their enemies, lt often befell that ships hulled through and through with shot drifted for many daya,while the handful of unwounded survivors accom- plished tasks auch as make the mind reel to think of.
THE DAYS 0F ROMANCE.
They fought for life as fiercely as they
had faced their human enemies; hacked and bowed at the wreckage around them so that the sea. might take it away with its deadly dangerto them; doggedly stuck to the pumps, cleansed the shambles cf their ship for the avoidance of pestilence and held at bay that sense of utter weari- ness and hopelessness which was the deadliest foe of ali. And the wide, clean aes around them waited impatiently for whatever end was decreed them, ready tc cover up all traces of them if they failed to live, or bare them bravely on its bosom into pert and safety. '
In the days of sail and wood there was
something romantic, in spits of its horror, in the manoeuvrlng of those winged fleets upon the open sea. Something solemn lu the sight of two hostile iieels eager lo destroy one another, held in the bonds of unwilling peace by the falling of the wind. The vast shining surface of the sea lying in placid beauty beneath the bright, blue sky, and the two motion- less groups of vessels, with idle sails doivnhanging, just gently moving to thc tender heaving of the swell. Peace, as at the beginning, over nature above; but in the recesse of the ship, what seething
WARAND THI ELEMENTS.
In contrast most striking, think of two
hostile fleets endeavoring to get at each other ln ri gals. The awe-inspiring war of the elements seeming to brook no lu- terference with their high controversy, and man, actuated by the most desperate and primitive of all instincts, daring to disregard the cosmic quarrel of wind and
WBVE.
But rnpdcrn sea warfare has changed
nearly all that. Far more terrible, but mercifully for more swift will be the con- flict betvl c an hostile fleets in the future. There will be scarcely any euch thing as the lingering agony, long drawn out oi' the old days cf sea fighting. For one thing, modern lronclads and cruisers go- ing into action will choose the lesser of two evils confronting them. Because of the deadly peril of splinters and of fire, everything of wood in their fittings, even to the boats, will be cast away at the be- ginning ofthe fight.
Then, when the battle is joined, the
aeaiuan must needs have a heart of brass encased in triple steel. a mind that re- fuses to meditate upon the immediate possibility of one of those terrible twelve- inch projeciiles plunging down upon his vessel's deck, and cnt, amid the dis- integration of all her ganglions of energy, through the bottcm,renderlng her an easy target to an uninjurcd foe, and her sink- ing a matler of minutes.

The iiioiern man-of-war will not, at
any rate, prolong the agonies of her crew when she is scuttlcd. Silo will gc down quick into the pit in a halo of steam, a whirling voitex cf waves, and in Hve minutes from the commencement of her downward plunge there will be no sign that there has ever been, and only if other vessels be very near will there be any possible chance of saving the hund- ful of stalwart swimmers whcsi super-human struggles have wrenched them clear of the devouring, down-dragging eddics. More than a mere handful therc could not be in any case, since another tre~ mondous difference between past and present sea fighting is that the steel-clad monster goes into the battle with hardly a man visible, almost all of them hidden behind massive walls, shut in from the devastating impact of large projrctilcs, ns as well as the horrible hall of Hotchkiss and Maxim bullets.
And to ndd to all these terrible condi-
tions of modern sca warfare we have now the submarine. Nil. content with the mighty arena of conflict aflbrded by the open surface of thc sea, in gale, or fog, or calm, the sea fighter must now descend into darkness and silence, the realm of the utterly unknown, in order that hp may hapiy hiirl.at one fell blow as from a bursting volcano, into blazing, boiling ruin and death, eight hundred lives, and the revenue cf a prlncipality. For man has even cxiended the battle-ground of the sea.
