The Bruffels Gazetie of Thurlday lal, bhas only » prelude to the Revo'ution inRuflis,in thefe words : s ft feems lefs likely. than ever that the Emperor of Ruflia will effc his intended interview with the king of Pruflia. He has now objeéts far more prel- fing 10 employ him. The preewpitation with which he has sbandoned the plan ofthe emprels his aunt, as viell in regard to civil as mitery objeéts, and perhaps even his enterprifes upon kg ‘clergy, excite almoft s gencral murmuring snd difcontent.’ " According to fome sccuntg, the slate Emperor of Ruflie, and bhis coulin the Prince of Hoftein Gattorp, yefterdey curiently reperted, that & co®ricr wWas ar- ¢re confia'd in 'St Perer’s cafile g;Pc:cxfbourg. houfe of Anbals Zesbet. Her maiden name was bj)pma Ax‘:!iufia, and on her marriage with the latg hn;puor aflumed that of Cstherine Alezizwna, under which fhe mounied the Ruffan throue. As the is a German by birth, and wus bred either Lu- theran or Calvimift, the cannot be fuppafed to have any partiality 10 the Greek chusch, whofe de@rines are eftablifhed in that empire ; nor is it resfomable to imagine, that the Ruffians can naturally have more love for ber thap for'he r-hufband, on account of their being both Germans. If fhe was engaged to take this extraordinary fep by any ambitious view, -it is hardly poflibie, that a revolution fo tounded can long fubfift, chough it may occafion much blocdfhed, and be » means of lengthening out the war. : The laft advices from Peterfburgh mention, that the new Emprefs had declared the treaty concluded between the late Emperor and the King of Piuilia rull and void, and fent orders to the commaeaders of the Ruffien troops to feperate from the Pruffians snd seturn home. ) N:E W-Y O R K, 0843 Extrad of a Letter from Providence, Rbede Iflardy dated the 30th ult.
