The prince gives a clear insight to the spirit of the Russian government in his details of the sacrifice of life imposed by the excavation of the docks. Just as Peter the Great did not hesitate to sacrifice 100, 000 lives in reclaiming the morass upon which his capital of St. Petersburg was built, sa here human sacrifices must be offered to the Moloch of Russian ambition. It was said of the Tauri who once dwelt there, that they impaled human beings and offered them to their god Molkos; and the ...phrase Cimmerian darkness had as much reference to their bloody rites and bar- barous indifference to civilisation and human rights, as to the tales of supposed fogs and gloom which ancient mariners circulated con- cerning the shores of the Black Sea.

Colonel Upton had 30, 000 men assigned to his charge for the purpose of accomplishing the ex- cavations.
