Alexander died suddenly, and his death bas never | been cleared up. Nicholas bas now died very suddenly. | It is perfectly true that we have medical bulletins from St. Petersburg, giving a brief account of tho ill- ness and death of the Czar, but these do not cancel the existing suspicions. | Let the cause of his death be what it may, it doos not alter the importance of the event in any circumstances; but if proved that he was poisoned, it would imply that the Russian nobles were averse to the war. His succes- for and eldest ron, who ascends the throne as Alexander T., haa issued a manifesto which sounds warlike, but as the full text is not yot kuown, it is quite impossible to form a correct judgment upon it, It was feared that the second son, the Grand Duke Constantine, would endeavor to seize the imperial crown. He shared all the opinions of Nicholas. Nothing bas oc- curred as yet to warrant the supposition, On the con- trary, we learn that he has taken the oaths of allegiance, with ali the court and bigh functionartes. Prince Mens- chikoff is recalled from the supreme command in the Crimea, which is given te Prince Gortschakoff, with Oa" ten-Sacken under him. General Rudiger has been ap- pointed to the command of the Imperial Guards at St. Peteraburg. It is reported that the Grand Duke Michael has been killed or severely wounded before Sebastopol, but this requires confirmation. There has been very severe fighting in the Crimes, im which the French have playe? conspicuous part. The Ressians having established important works of counter-approach to those of the French, Canrobert ordered them to be taken. ‘This waa valiantly achieved by the 24 French corps, but not without severe lose on both sides. The French are also sndd to have destroyed the formidable Russiaa works roand the Matal.hoff, or round tower. ‘The defeat of che Russians at Kupatoria is fally con, firmed by official despatches from Lord Raglan and Can- rovert. The action does great credit to tae Turks under Omer Pacha. They are the old Silistria and Oltenitva men, and charged the Russians at the point of the bay- onet. As soon as Omer Pacha is in force enough, he will leave a strong garrison in Eupatoria, and invest Sebas- topol to the north. The Ruasians will thus be betwoen two fires. The navvies have proved of good service. The railway from Balaklava to the camp is nearly com- pleied. In the Crimea, in fact, thiogs look promising for the allies; but Sebostopol has not fallon yet, and many « gallant fellow will bite the dust before it does, It is still to be ascertainod what effect the news of the death of the Emperor will have upon the army.

The hopes ef the liberal and olf Russian party baying beon thua quenched, Nicholas found himeeif the sole ano absolute master of the gi gantic Russian empire, Imuediately five scaffolds were erected on the esplanade of the fortress of St. Peters- burg, thirty-six noble persons were executed, ani eighty-five sont to Siberia. Frons that time Russia Pro- per haa been exempt from outbreaks, if not from con- spiracies, and the late Crar was left free to carry out hia ideas of government. In the punishment inilicted oa the robels, Nicholas, however, evinced the most atro- cious severity, thus affording & melancholy spectacle of # union of chivalrous bravery with barbarous cruelty. In September, 1826, the Emperor was crowned at Mon- cow with grest pomp and cerenymy. Absolutiam waa thenceforth his darling doctrine. 1m 1820 the peace of Adrianople waa concluded, by which Nichoisa was per- wilted to retain authority in Wallachia and Moldavia, and the Porte agreed to indemnify the expenses of the war by 9 payment of 11,500,000 of Dutch ducat»—a sum from which *},000,000 were afterwards deducted.
