A 14% , . t 34111, LONDON, MONDAY, MARCH 5, 1855. This evening tbe Newspaper Postage and Stamp Duties Bill stands on the orders for a second reading. A full explanation will be given as to its details. We may, of course, hope to learn the reasons for some provision, which appear difficult to understand, and which have "achieved the unhappy distinction of displeasing all parties. The Leviathan indignantly rejects all the sops flung out for its acceptance, and roars majestically in its cage because the measure is not framed solely to meet its requirements, and because the existence of any other journal it. for a moment recognised. It is not con. tented with a more than lion's share of the advantages, and a ten years' exemption from the disadvantages. No ; it will have all or nothing ; and woe betide those who venture to cross its path while its wrath is so fearfully excited. On the other hand, other journals, of all varieties and shades of political opinion, naturally feel indignant that their just demands are disregarded, solely because they may chance to be displeasing to their big brother— who, if it possesses a giant's - strength, is disposed to render every particle thereof available, and t( make the most despotic use of its power and in fluence. As we have already stated, the ques tion affecting as it does the future welfare and prosperity of that which has not inappropriately been termed the " Fourth Estate"—should not be lightly or flippantly disposed of, but should receive the mature and attentive consideration which the importance of the subject so impertt lively. demands. _ The measure now before the House pur pot ts to be a concession alike to Jour nalism and to public opinion. We fear, how- ever, that its practical effect will be very different from that which it is alleged will follow, and that after a brief experience it will prove any thing but a valuable boon either to the press or to the community. We have always found that the juggling and shuffling of Financial Minister& were anything but auspicious. Their pretended gifts were as formidable as those of the ancient Greeks, and. should be as strictly scrutinised before acceptance. If a tax is to be levied it sig• nifies little by what title or under what pretexi it is imposed. If " the rose by any other name will smell as sweet," the charge will, under any designation, prove as onerous and oppressive. II the stamp on publication is to be avoided, another and heavier burden should not be substituted in its place. The great mistake into which the late Chancel lor of the Exchequer suffered himself to be be- frayed was occaiioned — b - the desire to sweet, - I aw ay the distincti ons j et other printed matter. 7een news p a pers and Public journals, more intervals,. had a es pecially those printed sLo r t right to expect some facilities not afforded to the community at large. As we already Pointed out, it is a matter of immense importance to the nom _ munity at large to be enabled to receive the latest intelligence, and therefore recognised journal s should be received without additional charge up to the latest hour. They might easily be received until seven o'clock without the demand of an extra halfpenny, a matter which presses very heavily on those disposed to give the fullest information to their subscribers. There is, however, to be no concession in point ' of time, and that relating to weight proceeds on a wrong principle. If it be right that four ounces of any description of printed matter should be transmitted by post for one penny, it surely could uot be objected to if a duly registeree. publication Of two eunees:were sent for one halfpenah:witb a similar charge for every fractional part of that weight. That would be but a trifling concession a nd the fact of registration, and the various points incidental thereto, would be an ample equivalent for the boon, for that which indeed would be something for which we might be thankful. In another part of our impression will be found the resolutions adopted at a recent meeting of newspaper proprietors. It will be seen that the feeling was strongly opposed to the change, and many cogent reasons were adduced in favour of the propositions then adopted. We confess that we cannot quite agree in all that has been put forward. For instance, in stating that " the bill proposes to remove all the securities against libel or offences against public order and morality," they go too far, and weaken the effect of a very strong argument. The libel laws would still remain in operation, reckless and unscrupulous publications could still be repressed, although great difficulty would be experienced and much litigation oc- casioned. Let us meet the question fairly. We shrink I not from any just competition. It would be for the public benefit that the best article should be obtained at the cheapest rate. But it is not, there fore, indispensable that everything should be so regulated as to suit a single journal—nor, so as to make local publications essential. Weight should be fairly paid for. If there were no limitation the post would shortly break down—the additional labour could not be executed without an enor mous increase of expenditure ; but some privileges, such as those above alluded to, might reasonably be conferred, so as to hold out inducements for enterprise and capital. The extra weight de manded by the Times is not for the general, but for its own exclusive benefit. At least eight out of the sixteen pages of which it so loudly boasts, are composed, not of news in which the public have any interest, but of adver tisements, largely paid for, and which would fully repay a special postage stamp, and which possess no claim superior to any other description of printed matter. Its appeal, then, in that respect is just as preposterous as its fallacious assertions some years since as to the small amount of profit on each copy, ,when it debited itself with the paper on which the advertisements appeared, but abstain° 1 from crediting the price paid for their insertion. All we now ask in reference to the present bill is that the matter should receive the attention it deserves, and not be recklessly slurred over, in the erroneous supposition that it will be regarded as a boon either by journalists or the community at large. It was impossible at first, and is almost impos sible yet, to realise the fact that our great antagonist is dead. He has so long been closely present to our most frequent and soul-stirring thoughts that it resembles losing some one with whom we have been in constant association. It will long seem as if we must meet him where he has been wont to appear. But NICHOLAS has passed from us for ever. We shall need no more to take account of his personal qualities in our political calcula tions. His imperious and stubborn will, his in satiable ambition, his personal courage, his fanaticism (duo chiefly, perhaps, to his success in arousing it in hiS subjects)—these exist no more; they may and probably will, be wanting in his announced successor. Till Friday evening we all felt that, politically speaking, a mighty and unbending Satanic spirit -ruled from St. Peters burg to Sebastopol, from Warsaw to the wall of China ; that it could make its will and its infu riate energy felt in the armies of the Baltic, of Poland, of the Danube, of the Crimea, and of Asia. The Czar NICHOLAS was the omnipresent dread of every Russian general and every private soldier, while his approval and rewards were their ever-animating hope. But " the god of the Russians " was a mortal god. While he lived the symbols of his presence and his commands were an ark in their camp ; they have left a coffin in their place. The awful void can hardly be filled up. It is rarely indeed that an ALEXANDER the GREAT succeeds a PHILIP, or that a GUSTAVUS AnoLritus leaves generals like those whom he had trained. Time alone can re veal the future ; but certain it is that the intense ooncentration of all the bad Muscovite and Tartar qualities which made NICHOLAS in his sixth de cade the demon of Europe can hardly exist in another CZAR. No, it is gone, gone for ever, and by degrees we shall realise fully the magni tude of the fact. We must, however, frankly confess our fears. Russia appears now to be wholly wanting in great minds—alas, we are equally deficient ! NESSEL RODE is still left to outwit, if that were necessary, our leading statesmen, and in diplomacy, all secret as it is, we are no match for even ordinary Russians. But the truth is, we have no men worthy of the crisis. Suppose ALEXANDER in con formity with his presumed character inclines strongly to peace, we have now at Vienna a states man who, as an aristocrat, and as a Whig espe cially, is a mere hand-to-mouth politician. Perhaps he dares not leave Sebastopol as it is, but to quitting the Crimea and anything else AT fear ho would easily consent. All the stolen territories of course ho would leave to a peace making young CZAR. Circassia he would consign to its ruthless enemies ; Persia would remain bereft of provinces which form part of the Russian high road to India ; Ismail and Bessarabia must be left to obstruct the mouths of the Danube ; Poland, of course, would continue under barbarian rule, as a military road against Europe for the next mad CZAR ; and Finland must still render Sweden subservient to Russia. Indemnity to Turkey, France, and England, for the cost of the War, would be out of the question. Lord JOHN RUSSELL is fond of denouncing the narrow-minded policy of the " Man chester School." We fear his own is quite As narrow. The key to Manchester policy is cotton and trade. The key to Lord JonN's, aristocracy and hereditary despotism. The former is at least a policy for the many, the latter a policy for the privileged or the tyrant few. One aims to fill the purses of the community—_ the other to glut unrighteous dynastic ambition. Wo think Lord JOHN is certainly now, if ever, too small for his place. Never probably will an opportunity occur again like the present for undoing the misdeeds of the Holy Alliance, and recasting on na tional principles the wickedly spoiled map of Europe. We are now at war ; we have the means of compulsion on a vast scale. Prussia with her Rhenish provinces, Austria with Iler Lombardy and Hungary, dare not oppose the will of the Western Powers ; and Russia is de prived of the man whose indomitable energy made something out of . h er will now be comparateiv°lenlym}.°:r-pallyacseedg. e n e l‘ r a, We s d . S n h o e t o believe her Muscovites could be induced to fight for Poland as they did for Moscow. With the aid of the Allies it would be easy to wrest Poland for ever from its oppressors, and to circumscribe Muscovite barbarism within its natural limits. we have as our Plenipotentiary now one oßfutthneci 5 Ministers who married our Sovereign to a petty_Gerraari Fnnce and one who has Ger- THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, MAItCH 5, 1855. manised ever since in all his foreign policy ; who would not even protest against the political murder of the noble Hungarians, who afforded no aid to Sicily, or to Lom bardy, and who sneers at Poland, because he stood silent by and saw her absorbed twenty years ago. Such is our representative at Vienna. He is, too, just the man our aristocracy want there. They have brought their order into a dreadful plight by the War. With some noble exceptions, their sympathies are not with sup pressed nationalities, but with the tyrants ; he can vamp them up a peace which will serve their domestic purpose, and gratify their interest in foreign despots also. Well, we expect the issue will be a paltry peace, at the very moment when we might push a successful and holy war ; and the down-trodden nations must yet bide their time till the band which has just smitten their most savage oppressor shall bid them arise, and shall raise up noble-minded and real States men to fulfil its behests ! Mr. P. A. TAYLOR expressed, we are confident, the sense of the nation in the motion which the 4heriff declined to put at the close of the election on Saturday. The nation does expect in any peace which may be concluded adequate "material guarantees" from Russia. It will hold Ministers responsible for not using their present military advantage. The soul of the War is gone. The Young CZAR, and the Russian generals can never make head against the Allies, even if the former desires it. We have armies to contend with who have lost their genera], and to whom he was an object of worship ; the worship both of fear and hope. Now is the time to secure our selves against Russia, both in India and Europe. We hope the hint will not be lost on Lord JOIXN RUSSELL. nother " material guarantee," and a most im portant one, is the Indemnity. Turkey, France, and England ought to be indemnified in full. Nothing less should be listened to. Let Russia bear a heavier national debt. for her anti 7 national wars—let her fina s zerebe crippled, and not rise. It would be infamous if we made a weak Power like China pay us for the war against her, and let off an aggressor ten thou sand times more guilty: Mr. CORNEWALL LEwis must include the Russian indemnity in his future calculations, and Lord PALMERWN must gua rantee it to him, or it will be an everlasting dis grace both to the country' and to them. THE LATE EMPEROR OF RUSSIA. The Prussian-- koniteur publishes the following details respecting the death of the late Emperor Nicholas. The despatches which follow were ad dressed to Berlin by Lieut.-Colonel Count Munster, Adjutant in the service of the King of Prussia : ST. PETERSBURG, March 1, 1.25 A.M. " The state of the Emperor became much worse yes terday evening. Tie following is the medical bulletin: " Yesterday violent fever manifested itself with in flammation of the lungs. The fever lasted during the whole night and prevented sleep. The ejections continue without obstacle. A. sl ght attack of gout is observable.' " I must add that the debility of the august invalid has greatly increased, and that, at least, in the opinion of the physicians, the state of his Majesty is most cri tical. I will forward another despatch to-day, and beg of you to communicate the present to Duke George at Strelitz." " ST. PETERSBURG, March 1, 4.40 A.M. " The state of his Majesty has not improved in any respect this morning. I will send a third despatch. Her Majesty the Empress has had some palpitations of the heart, but is otherwise well. I beg of you to send this intelligence to Schwerin, Strelitz, and the Hague." " ST. PETERSBURG, March 1, 9.30 p.m. " The state of his Majesty the Emperor grew consider ably worse during the day. The ejections take place with difficulty, and give indication that the lungs also are touched. Atrophy of the lungs is feared. Dr. Carrell is very much alarmed. At the rsquest of the physicians the Grand Duke heir apparent has requested the Emperor to receive the sacraments. The Empress is well. I will send another despatch to-day." " ST. PETERSBURG, March 1, 10 p.m. . . "The Emperor haq declined receiving the last sacra ments at present. The ceremony is adjourned till to morrow morning. The Emperor only sees the Empress and the Grand Duke heir-apparent. The Empress is aware of the danger, and begs me to inform his Majesty the King thereof, and t) communic3to it also to htr august relations and to Strelitz." " ST. PETERSBURG, WINTER PALACE, "March 2, C a.m. " The Emperor has calmly received the comraunica tion from Dr. Mandt that atrophy of the lungs is possi ble. He simply observed, When shall Ibe paralysed ? ' The physician could not give a precise answer. The Em ppror then said to Dr. Carell, When shall I choke ?' The Emperor has t tken the last sacraments, he has taken leave of his wife and children, whom be blessed sepa rately, as also his grandchildren, in a firm voice, in full possession of his intellect, perfectly calm, and with great presence of mind. The pulse is still strong, but musk has already been administered. The Empress keeps up, and shows resignation." It was currently reported yesterday evening, in some of the West End Clubs, that the Emperor of the French is expected to arrive ir. London on Friday. DEATH OF THE EARL STANHOPE.—We have to re• cord with deep regret the death of the above.named earl, who expired on Friday last at his seat, Chevening, Kent, at the advanced age of 74. His lordship was nephew of the celebrated William Pitt, and keeper of the records of the Tower of Dublin. The deceased nobleman, who attained the peerage on the 15th of De cember, 181 G, will be succeeded by his son, Viscount Mahon. The shipments of specie by the Peninsular and Orien tal steamer Euxine amount to 225,9621., of which 23,386/. is gold for Ceylon, Hongkong, and Singapore, and 197,576/. silver for Bombay, Madras, Singapore, Hongkong, Canton, and Shanghai. The specie arrivals of the week have amounted to about 700,000/. The exports, including- the above, have been about 350,0001. DOVER, SUNDAY.—Lord Clarendon arrived from Bou logne, per special steam•packet, and left by special train for London at 12.26 p.ty. CALEDONIAN AND DUMBARTONSHIRE RAILWAY.—At the half-yearly meeting of this company on Wednesday a dividend of 4 per cent. was declared. GLASGOW AND SOUTH-WESTERN RAILWAY.—The re port cf the directors recommends a dividend of 3, 1 4 per cent. A balance of nearly 3,0001. will be carried for ward. ¢COTTISII CENTRAL DIVIDEND.—We understand that at the approaching meeting the Scottish Central direc• t irs will recommend a dividend at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum . THe LAW OF DEBTOR AND CREDITOR.--A recent de cision by one of the judges in the superior courts is caus ing much discussion in Manchester, on the law of debtor and creditor, as it now stands, and was on Wednesday last the subject of long consideration by the directors of the Manchester Commercial Association. They ulti mately adjourned the subject for a fortnight, when it will be resumed. SACRED HARMONIC SOCIETY—EXETER HALL.—Men delseohn'a St. Paul will be again performed for the last time on Friday next, the 9th inst., Madame Clara No vella, Mrs. Lockey, Mrs. Sims Reeves and Mr. Weiss, principal vocalists. DUBLIN, Saturday Evening.—Mr. William Keogh, our new,Attorney-General, was sworn into office yesterday. It is thought that there will be no attempt at opposition to his re-election for Athlone ; and it is quite evident that the new Irish appointments have excited a general feeling of satisfaction throughout the country. THE MUSEUM OF ORNAMENTAL ART AT MARLBOROUGH. HOUSE.—The numbers atttnding, &c., during the month of February were as follows :-2,910 persons on tho public days, and admitted free ; 347 persons on the stu dents' days, and admitted as students on the payment of 6d. each, besides the registered students of the classes and schools. THE AMERICAN MAILS.—The Royal Mail Steam ship Africa, Captain Harrison, sailed from the Mersey, on Saturday forenoon, for Boston and Halifax, with the usual mails, 132 passengers, and a full cargo •f merchan dise on freight. THE HAMPSHIRE MILITIA.—The chief part of the offi cers of the Hampshire Militia have offered themselves for service in the Mediterranean. They consist of one major and seventeen captains and subalterns. Although it ie highly popular among the officers generally, yet it met, we have been informed, with much opposition from those in authority. PROGRESS OF TRADE.—The declared value of the ex ports, for the month ending sth Feb , was 6,464,796/. ; for the corresponding month of last year the value was 6,692,542/. ASYLUM FOR IDIOTS.—The concert of the Now Philharmonic Society, given last month al Exeter I-Tall, for the especial benefit of this admirable charity, and which was patronised by her Majesty and a distinguished circle of the nobility and gentry, with the Lord Mayor and Sheriffs, realised a profit to the institution o nearly 50. 7 ,. LICENSING THE CRYSTAL PALACE..—On Saturday the licensing magistrates, at their meeting at Croydon, granted a spirit license to Messrs. Staples for the Crystal - Palace. In support of the application evidence was given by Mr. Grove, the secretary, that 1,200,000 had been ad mitted to the palace since its opening, and that 51,0001. I had been taken for refreshments. HAYMARKET TIIEATEE. The furore excited by the re-appearance of the Queen of Spanish dancers, the incomparable Perez Nena, in creases nightly. The Gallicia,n pas, which she executes with Senor Diaz, is one of those terpsichorean tales of court ship that every foreign country can supply, but the ren dering of it by the bewitching Nena is quite unique. The companions of Perea are far superior to those who last year appeared with her, and each one appears to have her peculiar step, which, in a great measure, pre vents the attention of the observer being wholly engrossed by one artiste. The Haymarket is now looked upon as one of the " Lions of London." ~~ . ASTLEY'S AMPHITHEATRE, The indefatigable manager, Mr. W. Cooke, has added another act to his justly celebrated Battle of Alma. We have now "The Charge at Balaklava. " and " The Battle of Inkerman." Both tableaux are highly effective, and add greatly to the attractions of the piece. The whole resources of the establishment are brought into requisi tion, and an effect—which could only be witnessed at Astley's—is produced of the grandest possible; descrip tion. The taste and liberality of Mr. Cooke, we are glad to see, are duly appreciated. ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA. Rumour says that the Royal Italian Opera will re open on the 10th of April ; that Madlle. Fanny Ney, prima donna of the Royal Opera of Berlin, will appear early in the season, pribbably, in Verdi's " Il Trovatore," and in conjunction with Madame Viardot Garcia, whose performance of the contralto part in that opera has re cently made a great sensation in Paris. We also hear that Madll3. Sophie Cruvelli is re-en gaged for one month ; that there are to be no less than three tenors, the most celebrated on the Italian stage, namely Mario, Tamberlik, and Gardoni ; Fanny Cerito, Angiolina Bosio, Carl Formes, Borghi Mamo, a contralto, of great celebrity in Italy and France, and Meyerbeer's "L'Etoile du Nord," most powerfully cast, and put upon the stage with extraordinary splendour, are likewise pro mised by the above-mentioned authority. LIND TRANSPORT CORPS. • LATEST NEWS. PARIS, MONDAY, MARCH 5, 8 A.M. The Emperor returned to Paris at 7 o'clock yesterday evening. The ratifications of the treaty of alliance be tween France, England, and Sardinia were ex changed yesterday at 1 o'clock. VIENNA, SUNDAY EVENING. Lord John Russell and suite arrived here this evening at 8 o'clock. The Archduke William has set out for St. Petersburg with the condolence of the Emperor of Austria with the Empress of Russia. M. de Bruck has arrived here. Prince Gortschakoff, it is said, has received to day, by telegraph, the extract of a new Russian manifesto of a pacific nature. This requires confirmation. MARSEILLES, SUNDAY EVENING, MAncrt 4. The Byzantine merchant steamer, , which left Constantinople on the 22d ult., has arrived. She brings the report that the allied Generals had decided to attack the Russians under General Liprandi, and then to invest Sebastopol. The mail steamer Lougsor, which left Constan tinople on the 23d ult., and is due, has not arrived. • TURIN, MARCH 4. The treaty of alliance between Sardinia, France, and England was ratified to-day. The Official Gazette publishes a manifesto of the Government relative to the accession. The Senate has voted the convention respecting the loan by 63 votes against 27. VIENNA, SATURDAY EVENING. The news of the death of the Emperor Nicholas, which was known here at 9 o'clock last night, has produced an immense sensation. The confinement of the Empress of Austria is daily expected. There is a vague rumour that the Russians have attacked Balaklava, but nothing is known of such an occurrence in official circles. The whole garrison of Constantinople, the re serves, and the convalescents have left for the Crimea. It is said that the Flagstaff Battery has been nearly destroyed by the French mines. SUNDAY MORNING. The Archduke William, the personal friend of the new Emperor of Russia, goes to-day with an autograph letter from the Emperor of Austria to the Emperor Alexander. The Oesterreichische Correspondenz contains an article praising the high qualities of the late Emperor Nicholas, and expressing a confident hope that the Emperor Alexander will complete the work of peace begun by his father. WARSAW, MARCH 1. The divisions of grenadiers have received orders to leave Warsaw for Agustowo and the province of Samogitie. They will be replaced by irregular troops. MADRID, MARCH 2. The Government los decided that no oath sha: be taken to the Constitution. A loan is cons:- sidcred as indispensable. The crops appear in very good condition. We have received from Berlin, Vienna, and the Hague, a number of telegraphic despatches re peating, with some additional circumstances, the important intelligence published on Saturday. The most important fact to be recorded is, how ever, the undisputed succession of the Grand Duke Alexander to the throne of his father. The oath was to be administered to the garrison of St. Petersburg on Saturday. FRANCE. PARIS, SATURDAY EVENING. The first diplomatic person who received the intelligence of the death of the Emperor Nicholas was M. de Hatzfeldt, the Prussian Ambassador, to whom it was sent by M. de Manteuffel. It reached him about six o'clock last evening. After some deliberation, M. de Hatzfeldt transmitted a copy of the despatch to the Empress, who lost no time in sending it to the Emperor at loulogne . At a later hour M. Drouyu de I'Huysa ssem bl e d his colleagues and communicated the important news he had received. The Minister of Marine has addressed the fol lowing circular to all the commanders-in-chief of the French naval forces and to the captains of ships of war at sea "Sardinia, by a treaty signed on the 26th ult., having acceded to the treaty of alliance concluded on the 10th of April, 1854, between Franca and Great Britain fer the protection of the Ottoman empire, now finds herself at war with Russia. You will consequently have to extend in future to the Sardinian navy the support and kind offices you are bound to render the French and English navies, and when you chance to meet sbips of war of his Majesty the King of Sardinia you will concert measures and establish with their commanders the same relations of intimacy as with the commanders of the ships of war of her Majesty the Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain. Please to acknowledge the receipt of this circular. "THEODORE Ducos." Since the news of the Emperor's death, orde rs have been despatched to General Canrobert to press on the siege, of Sebastopol with the utmost vigour. I Of the departure of the Emperor Napoleon for the Crimean nothing whatever can be said more than has been already. Everything continues in the same state of preparation. Since the coup d'etat of 1851 nothing has pro duced such a marked effect upon the public mind as th© death of the Emperor Nicholas. The streets ring with his name, and people openly express their rejoicing as they walk along. Whether rightly or otherwise, a very few clays will probably show— but at all events in fact—the present war was gene rally attributed to the turbulent ambition. of the late Czar personally. It is the general impression that his son Alexander (the new Emperor) was dia metrically opposed to his father's policy, and is sin cerely desirous of peace. Anxious fears were enter tamed this morning lest the regular order of succes sion should be set aside in favour of the Grand Duke Constantine, who is at the head of the ultra war party. But when it became known that a telegra phic despatch dated Berlin this day, announced from St. Petersburg that Prince Alexander had been proclaimed Emperor, and had been waited upon by all the official authorities the public confi dence knew no bounds. Prussia, it was said at once by politicians, must now necessarily join the Western alliance, and the way for a speedy and happy termination of the Vienna conferences is completely smoothed. The tradesmen one and all look upon the event as a providential occurrence just iu time for the Great Exhibition. It is noticed that some of the accounts speak of apoplexy, and others as a paralysis of the lungs as the cause of death, and many people openly insin uate that - the Czar Nicholas has died the natural death of the Emperors of all the Russias—that is to say, that he has been murdered. It is known for certain that he had a severe attack of bronchitis at the beginning of February, and that he made himself much worse bygoing out on horseback when the weather was intensely cold. The intelligence created an immense sensation this morning at the Petite Bourse, and Threes went up to 73, At the opening of the Bourse they were done at 72fr., 71fr. 50e. ; after many variations they closed at 71fr. 85e. A letter from Boulogne, dated yesterday, says : —" When the Emperor visited on his way here the regiments in the camp of Helfaut, near St. Omer, the weather was frightful, the rain falling in tor rents.

BERLIN, Feb. 27.—Apartments have been taken for Lord John Russell and his suite at the Hotel de 'tussle, while the Russian Plenipotentiary to the Vienna Con ferences, Councillor Von Titoff, is staying at the British Hotel, a circumstance that fills our witlings with ad miration at the delicacy of this diplomatic courtesy. The Court of Directors of the East India Company have invited a distinguished party to meet at dinner, on Saturday next, at the London Tavern, Major-General Vivian and the officers of the Turkish contingent, about to take their departure for the East.

MADAMH TUBSAUD'S EXHIBITION.--Two new and highly-interesting figures have lately been added to the war group in the large room of this establishment. The portrait models represent Marshal St. Arnaud and Prince Menschikoff. Both figures are considered good likenesse, and are certainly of a popular character—the first from the fact of - his having died in the execution of his duty, and the other fur s his obstinate defence of his position. We understand several figures are in prepara tion, and will soon be ready for public inspection. AUSTRIA. VIENXA, March I.—The Oesterreischische Cor respondenz, of yesterday evening, contained an official article on the subject of the approaching Peace Congress. It is evidently intended to pro duce a tranquillising effect on the public, and the object would perhaps have been attained if any mention had been made of Pruooia. The article in question is as follows : "In a few days the representatives of the Powers im mediately concerned in the conflict in the East, or con cerned,in it by means of conditional treaties, will meet in Vienna to begin the negotiations for peace. It is to be expected that one of the most distinguished Turkish dignitaries will be sent by the Porte to act during the Congress as Special Commi-sioner, with Arif Effen li, the Ambassador at the Impe4d Royal Court. The Privy Councillor, M. de Tituff, who formerly represented Russia at Constantinople, will assist the Russian Minis ter Prince Gortschakoff. Great Britain sends Lord John Russell, a roan of high birth, and a states man distinguished for his experience in State affairs, and his Parliamentary influence. Together with the Right Hon. Earl of Westmoreland, the experienced dip lomatist, who has for some years represented his Sove reign the Queen at the Imperial Court, Lord J. Russell will speak in the name of England. Baron de Bourqueney the representative of France at the Imperial Court, so for tunately unites in himself the two desiderata in a per son sharing in the negotiations, ho enjoys the perfect confidence of his Sovereign, and has an accurate know ledge of the political affairs of the East, that it seems less necessary that the Power he represents should send any other Plenipotentiary. " Count von Buol-Schauenstein, Minister for Foreign Affairs, and of the Imperial House, who will take the lead in the negotiations as the first Plenipotentiary of Austria, will have Baron von Prokesch-Osten, who has great experience in Eastern matters, as his adlatus. " The appointment of such distinguished and prominent statesmen to act as Plenipotentiaries at the approaching negotiations for peace proves the serious intention of the Powers concerned to put as end, if possible, to the war in the East, and togive to the whole of Europe what is so ardently wished for—asolid peace. Enough has been done for the military honour of all parties. A general basis has been gained for the settlement of various important points, claims, and re'ations which, during a series of years, have either actually been disputed, or have menaced to lead to conflicts ; a general basis has been found, which insure the independence and integrity of Turkey, and the privileges of all the Chris tian subjects of the Porte, without interfering with the sovereignty of the Sultan, and will prevent any future encroachments on the part of single Powers. We acknowledge that the final issue of the approaching ne gotiations —as is the case with everything undertaken by mau—lies in the hand of God alone, but the negotia tions for the restoration of peace begin under favourable circumstances, and this will encourage the statesmen concerned in them to set about their great work with earnestness and candour, so that they may, with the blessing of Almighty God, bring matters to a happy con clusion in the way intended . by their illustrious Sove reigns, and for the welfare of all the European nations." A letter in the Portafoglio Maltese says : "Travellers arriving from the Caucasus state that the famous Naib Mohammed Emir Effendi is in Abesch, and keeping up a very active cor respondence with Schamyl. The plan of the two mountain chiefs for the next campaign will be to invade the Crimea on the side of Anapa and the Sea of Azoff, and thus to co-operate with the Allies in driving the armies of the Czar from the Peninsula." Preceding letters had announced the com mencement of hostilities between Persia and the Inaaum of Muscat, and that the Persians had laid siege to the fortress of Blinder Abbas, which the Imaum's troops were preparing to de fend with vigour. The present mail from India brought by the Valetta states that after a desperate struggle, the fortress fell into the power , of the Persian troops. This check has not, however, dispirited the Imaun, who was, when the last ac counts left, assembling his troops for the purpose of retaking the place. Advices from Constantinople of the 22d ultimo state that the mortality at Scutari Hospital was diminishing. The Parma Gazette publishes a decree for a levy of 500 men in the Duchies of Parma and Piacenza. ACarlsruhe journal of the 28th ult. says :—" The Jesuits have been definitively expelled from Fri burg." A letter from Rome, of the 24th ult., states that although Cardinal Antonelli's resignation is certain nothing official had up to that date appeared on the subject. THE WEST INDIA MAILS.

The Parana, with the outward mails of the 2d ult., had not arrived at St. Thomas when tho Atrato left. The Royal Mail steam-ship Teviot had been ashore five days in Kingston Harbour, but she came off on the 2d ult., without suffering injury. At St. Thomas there were a few deaths from yellow fever, reported principally among the shipping. The accounts from Acapulco state that Santa Anna's election was progressing rapidly. The Liberal or Alvarez party were still in arms, and more than 1,000 troops of Santa Anna's army had deserted to them. Santa Anna's war steamers were lying idle for want of crews. The Panama Railroad was opened, but owing to the late heavy rains great damage had been done to the line. The bridge across the Chagres river was partially carried away by the force of the waters which had accumulated in consequence of the rains. The bark Gypsey, from Kingston, bound to Swansea, with copper ore, was totally wrecked on the Fish Keys on the 25th December. Subscriptions towards the Patriotic Fund were coming in slowly at Jamaica. At Jamaica business was exceedingly dull, caused in part by a large supply of ground provisions, and partly by ttio high rates which ruled for importa tion. Exchange. -60 days, li per cent. premium. THE PACIFIC. (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPII.) SOUTHAMPTON, MONDAY MORNING.
