This morning an received from Livadia had passed a better night and had able to sleep better. This somewhat alle viated the anxiety, although even the official bulletins are now received with suspicion. After this bulletin nothing was receive until o'clock this evening, when another private dispatch reported an improvement in his majesty’s condition, also that he ha a better appetite. This was confirmed 11 o'clock by the following official bulletin “LIVADIA, 8:30 p. m.—During the twenty-four hours the emperor has had rather more sleep. His majesty was up to- y as usual and his appetite is rather better. He is more composed. Otherwise there is no change.” This bulletin is signed by the five phystelafis T “atfendance upon his majesty. The crowds that had long and patiently awaited the issue of the bulletin read and discussed it with evident rellef and then rapidly dispersed. LONDON, Oct. 21.—A dispateh to the Times from St. Petersburg says that accord- ing to the best information obtainable there will be a formal betrothal and exchange of rings between the czarewitch and Princess Alix at Livadia on Wednesday, perhaps sooner, according to circumstances. This presupposes the performance of the ceremony to the orthodox church in the usual course, must take p The marriage of a foreign unorthodox to a Russian heir apparent neci three distinet ceremonies—reconcilia tion to the orthodox church, betrothal and puptials. The ceremonies formerly were al ways separate, but the betrothal and actual marriage latterly have often been performed togethe An imperial manifesto on this sub. ject is expected from Livadia. Private news from Livadia is reassuring. An official step has taken in regard to the appearanc tins in the press which is curious to say the least. All the Russian newspapers have beer requested to print coples of their respective journals for subscribers in Livadia, omitting the bulletins altogether. This is now being done. The wildest rumors are circulating i St. Petersburg and an extra special censor has been appointed to control all the press telegrams concerning the condition of the czar and the doings generally of the imperial family. All dispatches have, heretofore, to be passed on by the ordinary censor and to be inspected by the special censor and they are mostly altered a great deal before they reach the telegraph offices. Another curious instance of suppression of news may be men tioned. Judging by the telegraphic inquiries received here from abroad, there must be far more spontaneous concern in the foreign capitals than is noticed on the surface at St. Petersburg, where the press Is not allowed to utter a single word of sorrow at the bedside of the sick monarch. Even the ministers and high officials of state, who, themselves, are astonished at the mysterious and tardy way the little official news vouchsafed is sent from Crimea, have to telephone all day long and half the night to the office of the Official Gazette, begging for information, In the re- moter parts of the empire there are probably whole populations who have hardly yet heard the czar is ill. As Russian expressed it, the Russian newspapers are awaiting to know when the police wil allow them to weep and express their feelings freely, Special services in behalf of the in the chapels of the Russian em , and in the Russian-Greek churches in all the capitals of Europe and were at- tended by a large number of persons, Among those present were: The duke of Sparta (the crown prince) and his wife, Princess Sophia of Prussia, the members of the Greek nministry and all the diplomats.

Though rarely sur- prising the world with any striking or dar- ing policy, he has quictly and steadily wrought out a change in the positio of Russia, which has lfted her from a second- ary place and made her the arbiter of European peace. Curiously enough with all the Russian censorship and restriction, the most active and potent agent in leading the czar away from the old foreign influence was a journalist. Kalkoff, the chicf of the Moscow Gazette, was one of the ablest and nost powertul editors of any country—a Russian Horace Greeley—and the alllance the czar, and Kalkoff shook the univer intellectual and diplomatic d. mination of Bismarck and from playing a subordinate part to the great German chancellor, ad- vanced Russia to the pos of holding he balance between ad s and dictating the peace of czar pursued this policy with tional judgment.
