The Huron Expositor, 1872-08-02, Page 6ICiesing at Easter,
cerrespondent, writing from St,
Petersirurg, sas s Of all Russians
perhaps the only one who does not
look forvvaisl to the pi Ospeut of an:
Easter morning with any degree of
pleasure is the Emperor himself;
for it must be remembered that this
is the great kissing season. Among
real unsophisdeated Russians at
Easter the practice is universal be-
tween masters and servants It still
holds good at court, and on Sunday,
from about half -past one till three,
the Emperor mighthave been seen
in the chapel of the Winter Palace
goihg through an ordeal which,
Spite of Ms perseverence ante good
humor, must have sorely -tried his
, patience.. Think of the number of
kisses he has bestowed during that
hour and a half la There were, first,
all the bfficiating priests, then the
--members of the ,Council of State;
next 'the Senators; then all the gen-
eral officers in St. Petersburg.
'whose name is Legion' • then the of-
ficers of the ImperialGuard above
the rank 'of Major. Of the officers of
lower rank only a certain number
are Sent by each regiment. These
are followed by those of the fieeu,
the same distinction being made be-
tween the supeeior and inferior ranks
as in the army, while lastly come
the officers of the imperial household.
To each individual of this multitude
;the Emperor gives two kisses, one oa
-each cheek ---three being the canon-,
-foal numbee according , to Russian
etiquette ----but that would take too
-much time in the present instance.
In ordinary Russian society the
custom is. to present an egg to a
-friend the lira time you meet him
or her—roost generally her—after
12 o'clock on Easter night The one
who presents the egg. exclaims,
Christ is risen I' the other one an-
swers, Is He risen, indeed stncl.
-three kisses follow. Of course the
second one has generally an egg to
present in return. Timid swains
eagerly take advantage of this .cus-
tom to obtain -Ole prhilege of em-
bracing some fond object whom they
would otherwise be too bashful to
approach. The eggs are of aIlkin.cls
—some simple hens' eggs, gilded or
silvered or colored ;' red, blue or
violet.; some sugar eggs, embellish-
-ed with all lsindi of fanciful ctsigns
There are also diminutive -gold,
marble, or simple wooden eggs,(
others are large enough to serve as
- ladies' travelling bags; or they may
be placed on stands to serve as a
useful ornament hens may sit on a
nest of bon bon eggs, and some may
- be fitted up inside with a set of
child ren' 3 toys. There are eggs, in
fact, in every imaginable material.
-On this day hundreds of thousands
of these cnange hands in Petersburg
ItIone, and the SUM spent i their
;purchase must be prodigious.

A Remarkable Trade.
There' an, now annually exported 1 -
to England thousands of barrels of
flour, which return again ie the
shape of fancy. crackers and biscuits.
Every well -regulated grocery has
them for sale, and the extent to
which this trade has grown ia some-
what remarkable. In. 1870 a. sail)*
case of certain English crackers was
imported to New York as an expel"-
ruent, .and the resat iS that the year-
ly 'average is now about 300,000
pounds, representing a value of near-
ly $1,00,000. The great access at-
tending this venture led other Eng-
lish cracker surnaufacturers to send
their productiondl to the United_
States, and in 1871 the importations
of all kinds of crackhrg' ainoun ted to
nearly half a million dollars. Owing
to. imita,tions and competition the
profit on these goods is very small,
but manurocers sell gem simply
