Starving in Itus!a.
The stories of misery received from
Russia are almost incredible. In Ites.a
rabia peasant are actually offering their
children for sale hi order to buy food, and
dealers at Constantinople, bearing of this,
have purchased through agents in the
Itussian villages, a considerable number of
female children. -Many deaths have been
unused through famine, and families may
he found actually perishing from huugi r
and huddled together iu their common
misery.
targe sums are required to prevent
wools populations from perishing of starva
tion. The government authorities, bfinij
now aroused, are exerting themselves with
energy, and the distribution of relief is go-
ina on as ranidlv as possible. When a
qimntity of grain reached Marinpol, in the
province of Yckatarinoslry, about a week
ago, the people were so weak with want
tlicy were hardly able tocomeand get their
portions. They gathered near the place of
distribution presenting a pitiful spectacle
with their wan faces and waited forms. A
force of police were present to preserve
order, but, instead, the police had, in sev
ernl instances to keep the applicants from
fid ling through sheer hunger and weakness.
Nor is the misery confined to the lowest
classes. Among the applicants at Mariupol
were noblemen and tradesmen, the latter
ruined In business through loss ot custom
on account of famine, and the former de
prived of the margin between their debts
and their Income, on which they depended.
The prohibition of the exwrt of rye wa&
none too soon, if the more-frightful results
of famine were to be averted.
