Difference Between Tartar Customs and the Chinese
A critique notes the Tartars shaved heads while not deforming female feet as the Chinese do. It cites a scene at Chusan with a woman walking naturally. The piece discusses The Marquis de Custine and his book Russia and the Russians in 1539, praising Russian people yet condemning serfdom and the Emperor’s order. It also reviews Uncle Sam's Peculiarities, praising Yankee sketches and their humor.
