Russkiy Mir (St. Petersburg Newspaper, 1871–1880)
''Russkiy Mir'' (russian: Русский мир, Russian World)Not to be confused with a weekly newspaper published in 1859-1863 in Saint Petersburg by Fyodor Stellovsky and edited by Alexander Gieroglifov was a daily Russian newspaper published in Saint Petersburg in 1871–1880.
