0,TENITZA, July 1, 1877.
The forced quiet of thi's little town
is at tilleu oppressivo. Wh'llen a
whole (ay has passed without a sin -
gle shot from either line of the bat
tories frowning at each other along
the river bank the conver sation in
the little cafe gets dull and Spag
modic, and at last flickors and goes
out like a burned up candle, simply
for want of something to food it. It
was, then, with an approach to ex
citement that we, who had no other
occupation all the forenoon than
shifting o;r ihairs aroundi the cor
ncr of the cafe as the shadow moved
with the advancing sun, saw a crowd
of infantrymen gather at the door of
the little shop opposite, and heard
the noise of a dispute within grow
louder and louder. Diromts.;ionAs
between the soldiers and the natives
are not by any means infrequent,
and if there had been any other
(liversion I should not havO p1id t1,o
least attention to the one of which
I speak. However, when the
mayor of the town-a short, thick
set, active little body, who now finds
no other field for the oxercise of his
agthori,y exc4pt the ever- rocurring
dierences between the citizen
and soldier-went across the street
through the blazing sunlight and
mingled his high-keyed voice With
the chorus I thought it time to in
vestigate the affair myself. The
sitiation was too ludicrous. There
stood the siiarl-featured shopman,
his dark eyes fairly flashing voith
rage, f1irihinq a hag,p sali;ago at a
mild-looking infantryman, who on
his side had a piece of the same kind
of sausage, but only about a third as
long. I thought I could see a hint
of a smile under the soldier's white
moustacho a.d a twimlilo in his grey
op"M, but until the mayor had sum
moned the colonel from his quarters
opposite, and the shopman was paid
and the crowd dispersed I had no
idea of the cause of th dispute,
b'Pilng totally unabIle to 5eizc 6oogh
words of tihe jargon of Russian
and Roumanian that was flying
ab)out to make one complete phraso.
BADLY CUT UP.
It turned out that the soldier
vo]et ltQ tho shop with a couple of
comrades to buy a sausage. He
made his bargain, put the sausage
under his left arm and took out his
purse to pay for it. Before he put
the money down he asked the prico
gain. "Four franes" says th
shtopkeeper. "F"our irancs for this
piece of bad sausage," yells the
soldier, holding out to the astonished
native a picce only about one-third
of the whole sausago 116 had that
moment stowed under his arm.
"Take your d-d old sausage, you
thieving native," and he started to
overtake his comrades wvho werg by
that time half way up tho street.
By4t the niative wvas too quick for him
and held himn until the crowd gath
ered andl the affair terminated as I
have described. The trick wvas a
shrewd one, but a little "too thin"
to deceive even a Wallachian. The
twvo comrades had, in accor'danco
with a previous agreement, taken
the opportunity while there was a
dispute about the price to cut off the
longer prt of the sausage which
appeared'from under the soldier's
arm behind, and made their wvay to
the camp with their booty. Tii
mild species of robbery is not rare,
and one must sympathize with the sol
diers more or less in their attempts
to got oven withy the natjyns1 for in
all mnatters of tra'de $ho soleirs in.

money is taken for only two-thirds I
its real value ; the mromnent a soldier4

two or three per qont. or more, and
iV is genQrally P'Take it or leave it"
with the sliopman, who takes ad

drive a sharp bargain. Very f.ev

A coSTLY EMDRAOB.
An Qld peasai;t had just come to
town to buy groceries for the whelc,
and;nDaturally etongh. walked4down
hL strevt with a littlp self-con
sciouness at. the thouglht qf having
a purse well tilled with Russian
ronbles, the result of the sale of his
last load of 1:1Y at the camp. 13efore
lie reached the shop, or had even
had Cime to take a glass of raki in the
little groggery, he was met by a
Cossack, who, without. any cro0no
ny, fell u1pon his neck and kissed
him with effiusion, excliming to tho
a1s'tonishd peasalnt in broko Ron
manian that he looked so much liko
his old father away off on the banks
of the Don, that the impulse to cm.,
braceo him was irrisistible. It scons
that the sentiment Nwas contagious ;
for the petsant, after looking at the
Cossack for a moment, Cried out
that he called to mind tho pride of
hin'family who was away with the Roll
manian army it Halifitt, and the
Cossack had to vndllre theio embraco
in his turn. This co(l not last
long. of course, and after an ex
Iausti o struggle to express his joy
in a language that was almiost en
tirely unknown to him, thp Cossack
took his leave, promising to so his
adopted father in a day or two.
When the silmiple Old fellow went to
pay for his tea and sugar lie found
lie had no purse. He went iimme
(iately to the imayor, bit his would.
be soin could not be found.
