 take
refreshments in the neighbouring hotels.  The arrangements for alighting
are very convenient: the carriages run into deep rails at the stations,
so that the ground is level with the carriages, and the entrance and exit
easy.  The carriages are like broad coaches; two seats ran breadthwise
across them, with a large door at each side.  The first and second class
contain eight persons in each division, the third class ten.  The
carriages are all numbered, so that every passenger can easily find his
seat.

By these simple arrangements the traveller may descend and walk about a
little, even though the train should only stop two minutes, or even
purchase some refreshments, without any confusion or crowding.

These conveniences are, of course, impossible when the carriages have the
length of a house, and contain sixty or seventy persons within locked
doors, and where the doors are opened by the guards, who only call out
the name of the station without announcing how long the stay is.  In such
railways it is not advisable for travellers to leave their seats; for
before they can pass from one end of the carriage to the other, through
the narrow door and down the steep steps, the horn is sounded, and at the
same time the train moves on; the sound being the signal for the
engine-driver, the passengers having none.

In these states there was also not the least trouble with the passport
and the intolerable pass-tickets.  No officious police-soldier comes to
the carriage, and prevents the passengers alighting before they have
answered all his questions.  If passports had to be inspected on this
journey, it would take a few days, for they must always be taken to the
passport-office, as they are never examined on the spot.

Such annoying interruptions often occur several times in the same state.
And one need not even come from abroad to experience them, as a journey
from a provincial to a capital town affords enough scope for annoyance.

I had no reason to complain of such annoyances in any of the countries
through which I had hitherto passed.  My passport was only demanded in my
hotel in the capitals of the countries, if I intended to remain several
days.  In Stockholm, however, I found a curious arrangement; every
take 
 refreshments in the neighbouring hotels.   The arrangements for alight 
 are very commodious: the carriages run into cryptic railing at the stations, 
 so that the ground is horizontal surface with the carriage, and the entrance and exit 
 comfortable.   The carriage are like broad coach; two seats ran breadthwise 
 across them, with a big doorway at each side.   The first and second course 
 contain eight person in each part, the third class ten.   The 
 carriages are all numbered, so that every passenger can well find his 
 seat. 

 By these elementary arrangements the traveler may descend and walk about a 
 fiddling, even though the train should only stop two moment, or even 
 purchase some refreshments, without any confusion or crowding. 

 These conveniences are, of course, impossible when the carriages accept the 
 length of a house, and contain sixty or seventy persons within locked 
 doors, and where the doors are opened by the guards, who only call out 
 the name of the place without announcing how long the stay is.   In such 
 railroad track it is not advisable for traveler to bequeath their seats; for 
 before they can pass from one end of the carriage to the other, through 
 the narrow door and down the exorbitant steps, the horn is sounded, and at the 
 same time the train moves on; the sound being the signal for the 
 engine - driver, the passengers having none. 

 In these states there be besides not the least fuss with the passport 
 and the intolerable pass - tickets.   No officious police - soldier issue forth to 
 the carriage, and prevents the passengers alight before they have 
 answered all his questions.   If passports had to be visit on this 
 journey, it would take a few days, for they must constantly be taken to the 
 pass - office, as they are never test on the spot.
