At the Police-court, Liverpool, on Friday, Charlotte Finchett, a middle-aged woman, possessing a most fiendish countenance, and attired in rags, was placed at the bar and charged with assaulting her husband. Mr. Hammond appeared for the complainant, from whcise statement it appeared that the defendant ha 1 pre viously been before his worship on a similar charge, and upon his suggestion an arrangement was entered into by which the husbaLd allowed the wife 4-. per week for her maintenance. After living apart for some time, she implored her husband to take her back, promising to amend her conduct, and her solicitations being so earnest, he yielded to her desire, and matters went on favourably for a short time, when she renewed her old habits of coming home drunk, and assaulting him and his workmen. She threw pieces of iron at him, pitched others into the street, abin.ed the customers, and even beat them. She stripped her children of their clothes and pawned them for drink, and had otherwise so conducted herself as to call for the interference of the bench. Several of the complainant's witnesses, including policemen and others, deposed to the accuracy of the narrative given above, and added that the unfortunate woman was constantly drunk, had sold her children's clothe-, their bedding, and every article she could procure, on which she could get money. Her language, too, was of the most abominable description. Mr. Mansfield, the sti pendiary magistrate, said further evidence was unneces sary, her haggard and careworn appearance were abun dant evidence to show him that her husband was not in safety if he (Mr. Mansfield) allowed her to go at large. This was not the first, nor the thousandth case of the kind which had come before him, where a respectable man was brought into misery and distress by the conduct of his wile. Toe law of this country was so constructed that if the wife stripped her children, and sold their clothes, she could not be punished as a felon, the fiction of law holding that she took her own property. By a supertitious notion, or perhaps, he might say, a delicacy of feeling, the sanctity of marriage was so regarded that there was not any power, however abominable the wife's conduct might be, to obtain a divorce ; and for a man to be linked to suet a woman as this was a far greater pu nishment than if he carried a corpse upon his back until it rotted away from him. He thought, too, and most earne-tly, that the noble lords who talked of divorce should exhibit some consideration, and see cases like the present amongst the million, and he trusted that many of those who beard him would live long enough to see this description of legislation changed for the better : for he had no hesitation in saying that nothing could be worse than at present, and that there was no remedy for such a state of things at present ; but the course he should then take would be calling on the woman to find very heavy bail, namely, two sureties in 501. each, and be bound herself in 1001., to keep the peace for twelve months. Bail, of course, was not forthcoming, and she was removed. Liverpool Ch,ron ide. an EXTRAORDINARY AND SHOCKING ACCIDENT. —On Friday►(week) a most singular accident occurred in the carriage department of the Great Northern Railway Company's plant works in Doncaster. A youth named Holden, about 18 years of age, residing in Spring•gardens, and employed as a coachmaker at the above works, went to grind chisels at the stone set up for that purpose, and after doing so proceeded to a bench, on which was placed a circular saw 18 in. in diameter, for the purpose of taking up some sawdust to dry them. Whilst so engaged, he walked to the end of the bench facing the wheel, and scarcely had he stood in that position more than a few seconds when he was struck in the face by a large splinter of oak thrown off by the wheel, at that time in full work, and revolving at a rate of 1,800 revolutions per minute. Holden did not faint, but called out for assistance. On some of the workmen going up, they found that he had a piece of oak firmly imbedded just above the upper jaw. Endeavours were at once made to extract it, and in so doing the oak broke near the face, and further effort to pull it out was unavailing. The youth, in intense agony, was conveyed to Lister's surgery by Edward Hoy, with whom he worked. Mr. Lister examined the face, and found an irregular triangular opening in the cheek, and through this the piece of wood was found protruding three quar ters of an inch beyond the bone, in which it was firmly imbedded. Such was its fiimne-s that no ordinary for ctps could move it. Mr. Lister then procured a strong pair of jeweller's pincers, and Hoy having ground them to a proper width and thickness, Mr. Lister again at tempted to, extract the wood, and succeeded in with drawing it. The piece of oak, on admeasurement, was found to be 6 in. long and 14 in. in circumference. The most alarming hemorrhage immediately followed its ex traction, but by prompt measures it was at once arrested. Holden is recovering most favourably, although his suf fering must have been intense for three or four days. It was most fortunate for him that his fellow-workmen brake the wood, for had they succeeded in extracting it entire, there is no doubt thot he would have died from hemorrhage before medical assistance could have been procured;—Doncaiter Gazette. ~ ( -- ,;. -,-: _ • --;, . . . 4,, ::..i,: ...,''. : 1... g,":0,4,,,,,,,, .., r' ' I S ''. . / , . . - ..—. 0 ...w. :, 1, , ori • 7, c4 ,.. ~-,=. - t 4 - • ' -• ' 4 it ' : ', " 7 ' s - , '//'/'/ '* , •;" ~ ' q..

CORONATION OF THE EMPEROR 0,1 RUSSIA. (Front the Special Correspondent of the Times). MOSCOW, FRIDAY NIGHT, AUG. 29. On Monday last the Empress-Mother arrived at the Palace of Petrovsky, a country house about four miles from Moscow, where the Imperial family ge nerally reside when ceremonies of state do not call them to the Kremlin during their visits to Moscow. The Emperor and Empress left St. Petersburg on Friday morning, and reached Petrovsky after dusk in the evening of the same day, having tra velled about 440 miles in 16 hours, which is re garded as a great feat in this part of the world. His Majesty's reception at the station was enthu siastic, and, late as it was, thousands of people awaited his arrival, and cheered him with great energy. Wednesday and yesterday were spent in preparing for the great event, the procession of their Imperial Majesties from the Chateau of Pe trovsky to the Kremlin, which took plaza to-day under the happiest auspices. It would be as difficult to describe this dazzling pageant as it would be to give an accurate account of a grand spectacle at the theatre. In all its com ponent parts it was magnificent and effective. The wealth of a vast empire was poured out with a pro fuseness almost barbaric, and displayed with a taste founded on Oriental traditions and modified by European civilisation. Instead of a narrow stage the scene was laid in the ancient metropolis of the largest empire the world has ever seen ; instead of tinsel and mock finery,gold and silver and diamonds flashed in the real sunlight. He who played the part of an Emperor was indeed an Emperor ; and those who appeared as Empresses, Marshals, and soldiers, were what they seemed to be ; but, after all, when amid the blare of trumpets, the clanging of bells, and the roar of the populace, the glorious pageant hadpassed away in a party-coloured blaze of light, what was left but the recollection of the tran sitory pleasure of the eye and of the indescribable excitement which the memory in vain endeavoured torecall of all that had at the moment produced such irresistible effects ? Each impression, strong as it is for an instant, is removed by the incidents of that whick followed it, and the mind fruitlessly strives to reconstruct the succession of emotions which have died away, and to restore as it were the order of the events by which these emotions were produced. It may be fairly asserted that no stranger who was present ever beheld the like of the ceremonial of to-day. It was quite sui generis—the devotion and highly excited religiqus feeling of the Sovereign and of his people, and their acts of public prostration recalled the faith, or at all events the practices, of past ages, and offered a strange contrast to the actuality of the military power combined with this national faith which menaces the future rather than the present. The gorgeousness of the carriages and uniforms, liveries and horse trappings, was worthy of the Cwsars, or of some of the great Oriental con querors, and it is said that the coronation will cost Russia not less than 6,000,000 roubles, or 1,000,0001. sterling. There is nothing in the world like Moscow but itself. Perhaps some of those vast Chinese cities, in the interior of the Flowery Kingdom, of whose extent and population one hears such wondrous stories, may resemble the enormous metropolis, which, with miraculous patience, perseverance, and celerity the Russians have erected in less than half a century on the ruins and amid the ashes of their ancient capital. In Russia nothing must be re garded as destroyed or lost for ever. When the Winter Palace—a pile as large as Versailles—was burnt to the ground, the autocrat of so many millions, with the force and volition of a Cambyses or Xerxes in past ages, exclaimed, " On the anni versary of this day I will give a ball in a new palace on that very place," and at his word a mass of stone and marble rose by the banks of the Neva till that promise was fulfilled to the very letter. So when the blackened and shattered walls of the Kremlin, a few stone houses and the shells of desecrated churches, were all that was left of Moscow, the popular will, guided by the Czar and the nobility, resolved that a fairer and nobler city should spring up in the midst of the waste, on the identical spot where Napoleon imagined he had struck Russia to the heart. And thus, with loftier spires and ampler cupolas, in larger proportions, and more profuse elaboration, churches, palaces, Royal and princely mansions—this miraculous capital, the centre of the Russian's faith, of his devotion, of his patriotism, of his obedience, of kis history, again stood on the plain of the Moska. Follow ing their instinct and their national charac teristics, they scarcely sought to improve on the ways of their ancestors, and the forms and direc tions of the old streets were preserved almost in tact ; so that the tortuous Tartar thoroughfares are still visible in their type in the best quarters of the new city. All the eccentricities of Byzantine architecture are here developed and varied with traditionary skill. The wild Tartars, who could not perpetuate their faith, have given at least to the church of Russia some outward and visible signs of their religion, and the Mosque and the Greek chapel are here present, as it were, in per petual silent conflict. But there is no time left for me to try and de scribe the city, even if I had power for the task. It is 3 o'clock, and the long street with an unknown name, which phonically I believe to be the Ness kaia, is crowded by the people of the town and those of the country who have flocked for miles to wit ness the coronation. This street leads from the Kremlin to the Petrovsky Chateau, the boundary of the city being marked by a gate and triumphal arch, on the top of which there is a statue of Vic tory driving her chariot in a very excited way with unmanageable and runaway-looking horses. The houses, which extend from the Kremlin to the gate way in an almost unbroken line, are occupied by the better sort ; in all the places, squares, and spaces before the churches the mujik and the lower orders of tradesmen are gathered together, and plat forms are erected for the authorities and those who can afford to pay for the accommodation. Many of the people have waited in the streets since daylight. It is their great holiday—it is their greatest happi ness to see the Emperor. There have been several , false alarms among the troops who line the streets 1 from Petrovsky to the Kremlin, and the most pa tient are getting tired. But they have no right to be so, for no hour is named for the entry in the programme, although it is generally believed that hi s Majesty will make his appearance at 3 o'clock. It is now 3.30, and he has not left Petrovsky, and the day, which opened wet and lowering, and which cleared up towards 10 o'clock, again darkens and threatens rain. At last the men stand to their arms for the third time, and a hum of many suppressed voices runs along the streets. A dull heavy noise, like the single beat of a deep drum, is heard a long way off. It is the first coup de canon of the nine which announce that the Emperor is on his way to the entrance of his ancient capital. In a moment, far and wide the chimes of some 400 churches, scat tered, as it were, broadcast all over the great city, . ring out with stupendous clamour, which is musi cal in the depth of its tumult, and the crowd set tles into an attitude of profound expectation and repose. For about 500 yards I could see up and down the street, which is about the breadth of Fleet-street. The pavements are narrow, but the extent of the route was so great, and the popula tion of the city is so small, that the crowd, so far as I could judge, never was packed disagreeably, like a London mob, and the people could move and see what passed with facility. They could see, that is, if they could look over that wall of soldiery which stood like masonry before them, topped with a coping of shining helmets and crests of waving horsehair. The Infantry of the Guard were formed origin. three deep the whole length of the street ; the space between the lines of the soldiery was covered with a fine red sand, carefully raked from time to time. Between the walls of the houses and the wall of men the people, Mujiks and their families, the petite bourgeoisie, the townsfolk, and the peasantry, stood with their wives and children to feast their eyes on their Emperor. The houses, of large frontage, but rarely more than three storeys in height, are alive with people ; the upper windows arc filled with faces ; platforms erected in the front, at the height of the drawing-room floor, are crowded with ladies after the newest Paris fashions, officers, and the gentry, nobility, and strangers who have flocked to Mosew for the fetes. These balco nies are decorated with coloured calico or silk, with festoons of flowers and gay streamers ; but there are no very striking devices, or any great evi. dente of a fanciful imagination in the ornaments ; and it is probable that with the materials in hand the French would have produced a better effect ; but, as it was, one could not but say that the result was very striking. The two lines formed by the soldiery arc as strict and exact as those of the street itself, and the eye wanders down a long per spective of helmets, faces, red collars, green frocks, red cuffs, and white trousers, till they are diminished into mere streaks of colour in the distance. The officers dress the men within a hair's breadth, look along their chins and noses, till they are all in line, and then retire to, their places in the ritlks ; again the careful serjeants and corporals go round and give their charges a last finishing touch, brush the dust off their shoes and crossbelts, and comb their moustaches. When the street has been made quite clear there are, of course, several dogs which run at full speed down the lines with their eyes staring and their tongues out in a manner quite worthy of Tottenham Corner, or the best race courses in Eng land, but these little incidents are not developed to their full extent for the int3rest and amusement of the public, inasmuch as there are no stoutish policemen to run after them, and these usually sa gacious creatures are permitted to indulge in this folly of their race without let or hindrance. All this time a thousand church bells are ringing far and near with loyal vehemence, driving the rooks and pigeons in swarms out of their resting-place 3, to wheel and circle in the air. In a few moments more the flourishing of trumpets and the strains of mar tial music rise above all this tumult, and the trumpet band of the Rifles of the Guard, close at hand, commence a wild alerts, which is subdued after a time to the measure of a quick march. A few moments of suspense pass heavily, and at length there appears on the red path of sand, which looks like a carpet spread in the roadway, a small party of Gendarmes-a-Cheval, preceded by a maitre de police in full uniform. This latter officer is not like the quiet gentlemen who administer justice in Bow-street or Guildhall, nor does he re semble the more formidable-looking personages who, in round hats and silver-bound collars, ride on whirlwind and direct the storm of popular en thusiasm in England. He is a soldier every inch from plumed casque to spur, mounted on a pranc ing war horse, and clad in a rich uniform ; two and two, one at each side of the way, his gendarmes follow him in light blue uniforms with white fac ings, and with helmets and plumes also. They are fine-looking dragoons, and ride splen did horses. Behind them— but who shall describe these warlike figures which come on to their own Music of clinking steel and jingling of ar• mour ? They fill up the whole roadway with a flood of colour. Such might have been the Crusa ders, or rather such might have been the knights of Saladin, when the Cross and the Crescent met in battle. Mounted on high-bred spirited horses, which are covered with rich trappings of an antique cha racter, the escort of the Emperor comes by, and calls us at once back to the days of Ivan the Terri ble. Their heads are covered with a fine chain ar mour—so fine, indeed, that some of them wear i t as a veil before their faces. This mail falls over the neck and covers the back and chest, and beneath it glisten rich doublets of yellow silk. Some of the escort carry lances with bright pennons. All are armed with antique carabines, pistols, and curved swords. Their saddles are crusted with silver, and rich scarfs and sashes decorate their waist. Their handsome faces and slight sinewy frames indicate their origin. These are of that Circassian race which, mingling its blood with the Turks, have removed from them that stigma of excessive ugliness that once, according to old historians, affrighted Europe. Their influence on the old Muscovite type is said to be equally great, and the families which are allied with the Circassians, Miegrelians, or Geor gians exhibit, we are told, a marked difference from the pure and unmixed breed of Russian The whole breadth of the street was now occu pied by a glittering mass of pennons, armour, plumes, steel, and bright colours ; the air was fi l 'ed with the sounds of popular delight, the champ ing of bi . and clip Jeing of weapons, the flourishing of trumpet's, and, above all, the loud voices of the bel's. Close behind the Circassian escort and the wild Basbkirs comes a squadron of the Division of the Black Sea Cossacks of the Guard, in large flat black sheepskin caps, with red skull-pieces, long lances, the shafts painted red, and the pennons coloured blue, white, and red ; their jackets of scarlet ; their horses small, handsome, and full of spirit. The forest of red lance shafts through which one looked gave a most curious aspect to the gay caval cade. A squadron of the Regiment of Cossacks of the Guards in blue follows. Except in the shape of the head dress, which is like one of our shakos in the olden time, and the colour of their uniform, these men resemble the Black Sea Cossacks. Each squadron consists of about 200 men, and the men are by no means of that hairy, high cheekel retrousse-nosed, and small-eyed kind iden tified in the popular mind with their name ; and far different are they from the long-coated, round headed lancers on scraggy ponies who so long kept watch and ward over us from Canrobert's Hill. These Cossacks are well mounted and well clad, and would afford to the stranger a very imperfect notion of what the Cossacks are who plunder and burn in the front of an advancing enemy, sweep away its supplies, and hover round it to do anything but fight, unless at some enormous vantage. Suggesting s ome strancre likenesses and comparisons there follows after these 400 Cossacks a large body of the haute noblesse on horseback and in liaiform, two and two, headed by the Marshal of the Nobility for the dis trict of Moscow. Nearly all of these nobles are in military uniforms, those who are not wear the old Russian boyard's dress, a tunic glistening with pre cious stones, golden belts studded with dianionds, and high caps with aigrettes of brilliants. On their breasts are orders, stars, creases, ribands, innumer 'thSe b trg ea n r n e n r ff s O Cheremetioffs, s f many another innumer able. Menschikoffs, Rostopchins, G a lit z i n s, Wo a:Vnffedsstern Europe before the last r pn o ai namzt name ff f f us s kT G rio o oi r ws ttsno in c y h century, are there carrying whole fortunes on their backs, the rulers and masters of millions of their fellow-men ; but, brilliant as they are, the interest they excite soon passes away when the next gor geous cavalcade a pproaches. This consists of the deputies a the various Asiatic peuplades or races which have submitted to Russia, all on horseback, two and two. Here may be seen the costume of all as rich as wealth, e o v ld er f y am ag il e y a t t oho rea view,sures,loaalr i ted plunder, and modern taste can make it. Bashkirs and Circassians, Tcherkess, Abassians, in coats of mail and surcoats of fine chain armour, Calmucks, Tartars of Kazan and the Crimea, Mingrelians, Karapapaks, Da gliistanhis, Armenians, the people of Gouriel and Georgia, the inhabitants of the borders of the Cas pian, Kurds, people of Astrakhan, Samoiedes, wild mountaineers from distant ranges to which the speculations of even the " Hertfordshire Incum bent" have never wandered, Chinese from the Siberian f r ontiers,.Mongols, and strange beings like Caliban in court-dress. Some of them had their uncovered hair plaited curiously with gold coins ; others wore on the head only a small flat plate of precious metal just over the forehead ; others .sheepskin head-dresses studded with jewels ; old matchlocks that might have rung on the battle fields of Ivan Veliki, battle-axes, lances, and scimitars and daggers of every form were borne by this gaudy throng, whose mode of riding offered L every possible variety of the way in which a mans can sit on a horse. Some rode without stirrups, loose and graceful as the Greek warriors who live on the friezes of the Partheuon ; others sat in a sort of legless arm-chair, with their knees drawn up after the manner of sartorial equestrians. Every sort of bit, bridle, saddle, and horse-trapping which has been used since horses were subjugated to man could be seen here. Some of the saddlecloths and holsters were of surpassing richness and splendour. In the midst of all these cavaliers two attracted particular notice. One was a majestic-looking old Turk with an enormous beard and a tower ing turban, whose garments were of such a rich material and strange cut that one was reminded immediately of the figure of the High Priest in Rembrandt's picture, or of the old engravings of the Sultan in old books of travel. The other was a young deputy from Gouriel, with clustering hair flowing down in curls from beneath a small patch of gold and jewels fixed on the top of the head, whose face and figure were strikingly handsome, and who was dressed in a magnificent suit of blue velvet cramoisi, flashing with precious stones. He was a veritable Eastern Antinous, and was well matched with his beautiful horse. This cavalcade of the " peuplades soumises a la Russie" was to strangers the most interesting part of the procession ; but it passed too quickly by for the eye to decompose its ingredients. What stories of the greatness and magnificence of Russia will those people take back to their remote tribes ! They went by bright, shifting, and indistinct as a dream of the "Arabian Nights." The only objection one could make to this part of the procession was that it was over too soon, and the eye wandered after it to the curve of the lines of soldiery which hid it from view. Already the "premier fourrier de la Cour," in a uniform of green and gold, has passed us on a prancing charger, and then, two and two at each side of the street, comes an array of 60 valets of the Court, in cocked hats, gold and green liveries, breeches, and white silk stockings, shoes, and buckles. Alas I those shces are often new and the buckles tight, for the four mile march on foot has much distressed these worthy gentlemen, and they walk gingerly over the red sand. After them in like order come six lacqueys of the chamber, then six Court runners, and finally, in gorgeous attire, eight negroes of the Court, grinning with all the dental abandon of their race. The ceremony is now becoming most exciting, for the carriages come in view round the turn of the street. They are preceded, how ever, by the piqueur of the Emperor on horseback, and 20 huntsmen in full livery, after whom rides in great grandeur the head huntsman— the master of the Emperor's hounds, or the Chef de la Venerie Imperiale. The first vehicle is an open phaeton gilt richly from stem to stern, and lined with crimson velvet, drawn by six noble horses with the richest trappings ; at the head of each horse there is a footman in cocked hat, green and gold livery, buckskins, and patent-leather jackboots, who holds his charge by a richly-embossed rein ; the driver, barring his livery, seems to have been abstracted from Buckingham Palace. In this gay vehicle are seated, in uniforms of green and gold, two masters of the Ceremonies of the Court, with huge wands of office. This description, bad as it is, must suffice for the next open phaeton and its paraphernalia, in which is seated the Gland Master of the Ceremonies. After this carriage comes a Master of the Ceremonies on horseback, followed by 24 Gentlemen of the Chamber, mounted on richly-caparisoned horses, riding two-and-two. Another Master of the Ceremonies is next seen, pre ceding a cavalcade of 12 mounted chamberlains, who are stiff with gold lace, and covered with orders and ribands. Having got rid of an officer of the Im perial stables who looks very like a field-marshal, and two Palfreniers in uniforms too rich for an English General, we turn our attention to the fol lowing objects :—The second " Charges de la Cour," in gilt carriages, four-and-four, crimson velvet linings, green and gold footmen, and fine horses. Next the Marshal of the Court, in an open phaeton, gilt all over , with his grand baton of office flashing with gems. Next the Grand " Charges de la Cour," • by fours, in gilt and crimson carriages, all and each drawn like the first, with running footmen and rich trappings,— " All clinquant—all in gold like heathen gods ; "Every man that walked showed like a mine." The members of the Imperial Council, in gilt carriages, followed the Grand " Charges,"—all that is esteemed wise in Russia, skilful in diplomacy, and venerated for past services, grave, astute, and polished nobles and gentlemen, whose lives have been spent in devoted efforts for the aggrandise ment of their country and the promotion of the interests of their Imperial master, their breasts boar witness to the favour with which they have been regarded. It is with strange feelings one gazes on the representatives of a policy so crafty and so ambitious as that which is attributed to the Russian Court, and which in this 19th century is supported by no inconsiderable part of the learn ing and logic of the statesmen of Europe. As the last of the train of carriages passes a noise like dis tant thunder rolling along the street announces the approach of the Czar. But his presence is grandly heralded. Immediately after the membess of the Council of the Empire the Grand Marshal of the Court rides in an open phaeton, gilt like the rest ; but, bright as he is and all about him, there comes after that compared with the lustre of which he is a mote in the sun. In gilt casques of beauti ful form and workmanship, surmounted by crest eagles of silver or gold, in milk-white coats and gilded cuirasses and back-plates, approach the giants of the first squadron of the Chevalier Gardt s of his Majesty the Emperor, each on a charger fit for a commander in battle. These aro the picked men of 69,0C9,000 of the human race, and in sta ture they certainly exceed any troops I have ever seen. All their appointments are splendid, but it is said that they looked better in the days of the' late Emperor, when they wore white buckskins and jackboots, than they do now in their long trousers. The squadron was probably 200 strong, and the effect of the polished helmets, crests, and ar mour was dazzling. Their officers could scarcely be distinguished, except by their position and the extraordinary beauty and training of some of their horses, which slowly beat time, as it were, with their hoofs to the strains of the march. The First Squadron of the Garde a Cheval follows,— " All furnished—all in arms, " All plumed like e-,taid3es that winged the wind; "Bated like eagles having lately bathed, " Glittering in golden coats, like images." So bright, so fine, that one is puzzled to decide which, they or the chevaliers are the bravest. But as we aro debating the point the tremendous cheer ing of the people and the measured hurrahs of the soldiers, the doffed hats and the reverences of the crowd, the -serving of handkerchiefs and the clash of presenting arms warn us that the " Czar of all the Russias, of the Kingdom of Poland, and of the Grand Duchy of Finland, which ,are inseparable from them," is at hand, and Alexander Nicolaie vitch is before us. His Majesty is tall and well formed, although he does not 111 stature, or in grandeur of person, come near to his father. His face bears a resemblance to the portraits of the Emperor Nicholas, but the worshippers of his deceased Majesty declare that it is wanting in the wonderful power of eye and dignity and intelli gence of expression wh;ch characterised the father. His Majesty is dressed in the uniform of a general officer, and seems quite simply attired, after all the splendour which has gone past. He wears a burnished casque with a long plume of white, orange, and dark cock's feathers, a close fitting green tunic, with aiguillottes and orders, and red trousers, and. he guides his charger— a perfect model of symmetry—with ease and gracefulness. His features are full of emotion as he returns with a military salute on all sides the mad congratulations of his people, who really act as though the Deity were incarnate before them. It is said that several times his eyes ran over with tears. To all he gives the same acknow ledgment—raising his extended hand to the side of his casque, so that the forefinger rises vertically by the rim in front of the ear. The effect of his presence is considerably marred by the proximity of his suite, who have gradually and perhaps un wittingly closed up till they are immediately be hind his horse, instead of leaving him isolated, as he was when he quited the palace of Petrovsky. Thus it happens that, before he reaches the spot where the spectator is placed, he is nearly lost amid the crowd behind him ; and that the moment he passes his figure is swallowed up in the plumed suite who follow at Ins heels. It is ordered that the Emperor should be attended only by the Minister "de sa maison," the Minister of War, an Aide de-Camp General, a General of the Suite, and the Aide-de-Camp of his Majesty on duty ; but as he turned to speak to the Grand Dukes and to the foreign princes from time to time this order was lost, and mingled with the officers indicated were their Imperial Highnesses the Cesarewitch Grand Duke Heritier Nicolas Alex androvitch, the Grand Dukes Alexandre Alexand rovitch, Constantine Nie olaievitch, Nicolas Ni colaievitch, and Michel N.;colaievitch, the Prince Roma.novsky, Duke de Luchtenberg, Nicolas Maximilianoviteb, the Prirce Peter, of Olden. 241Z/1 r/4 [fracE 41. STAMPED ' • burg, and other foreign Princes and their suites. Amid this crowd of great people we all search out the Grand Duke Constantine, whose keen stern eyes are piercing each window as he rides along. A countssnance with more iron will, reso lution, and energy, stamped upon it, one rarely sees, and th,e Russiays are not unjustifiably proud of the ability and activity he displayed when the allied squadron was expected at Crcnstadt. His features and form are cast in the Romanoff mould which the portraits of Alexander and Nicholas have made pretty well known among us. A very splendid staff follows the Princes. It consists of the Gene rals attached to his Majesty's person, the Aides de-Camp General, the General-Majors of the Suite, and the Aides-de-Camp of the Emperor, and the Generals and Aides-do-Camp attached to the per sons of their Imperial Highnesses on horseback in full uniform. Among them are many whose names are now of world-wide celebrity, but one could not find out which was Luders and which was Osten- Sacken, or Menschikoff, or Gortschakoff—all co vered as they were with plumes and feathers and magnificent orders. The Empress Alexandra Feo clowna, whose appearance excited the liveliest accla mations of the people, now passed before us, her feeble frame sustained by the part she had to play, so that she surprises those who know how weak and suffering she is when they see her ports and the graceful and animated bearing with which she ac knowledges the cheers of the multitude. "Ah I" say they who think of the old Court, " who would ever imagine that she, who was a feather in the air suspended by a breath, should live to see this day, and that he—son Dieu—should have died before her !" Her Majesty was right royally or imperially attired, but how I cannot say. A cloud of light drapery through which diamonds shone like stars, floated around her, and on her head was a tiara of brilliants. The carriage in which she sat was a triumph of splendour—all gold and crimson velvet ; and on the roof, which was composed of similar ma terials, was the likeness of an Imperial crown. The eight horses, which were attached to the cairiage by trappings and cords of gold, were the most beautiful in the Imperial stables, and each was led with a golden bridle by a palefrenier in grand livery. To bide from bertha coachman's back, perforce turned towards her Majesty's face, there was an array of little pages, who sat outside the coach on the rail with their backs towards the coachman's and their round vis ages vis-a-vis that of the Empress. On the right of the carriage rode the Grand Ecuyer ; on the left the Aide-de-Camp General attached to the person of the Empress. An officer of the Imperial stable rods before it, and four Cossacks of the Chamber followed the Ecuyer and the General. Behind the carriage were six Pages of the Chamber, and two Palefreniers on horseback. As the carriage passes amid the thunders of ten thousand voices another vehicle, if possible more magnificent, comes before us ; and again the hurrahs of the troops and the people ring through the air. The Empress Marie Alexandrovna is seated in this carriage, and by her side the little Grand Duke Vladimir Alexandro witch, who is in full military uniform. Her Ma jesty seemed much affected as she bowed to the right and left and acknowledged the salutations of the people with vivacity and impressment. The boy seemed to take it all as a matter of course, and probably the arch ducal mind was occupied by dis tracting thoughts of dinner. The equipment and attendance of the vehicle were the same as those of the Empress-Mother. And now a galaxy of what are really "stave coaches," so richly gilt and deco rated are they, pass before us. The first contains the Grand Dachess Marie Paulovna and Alexander Joseph ovna; the second the Grand Duchesses Alex andre Petrovna and Helene Paulovna; the third the Grand Duchesses Marie Nicolaevna and Cathe rine Michailovna ; and the fourth her Imperial Highness the Princess of Oldenburg. Another mili tary spectacle closes up in the rear of the last carriage. The first squadron of the Cuirassiers of the Guard, and the first squadron of the Gardes Cuirassiers of the Empress, clad in surcoats of mail, part bearing laces with rich pennons, part armed with sabres only, make the ground shake beneath the tramp of their ponderous horses, and by the splendour of their equipments almost challenge comparison with the Chevalier Guard. The Dames and Maids of Honour, the Maids of Honour c 1 portrait, the Mis tresses de la Cour of their Imperial Majesties and Highnesses follow four-and-four in many gilt car riages, all in Court dresses, radiant with diamonds. As the last carriage passes, the first squadron of the Hussars of the Guard claims our attention. The uniform of these troops is very handsome — Hessian boots with tassels, light blue pantaloons, scarlet laced jacket, re white pelisse trimmed with black fur, lined inside with yellow satin, and a black bearskin shako with scarlet calpack. The first squadron of the Regiment of the Lancers of the Guard, in blue and red, splendidly mounted, comes next in order, and the rear of the procession is closed by the municipal, authorities, the civil authorities, and the magistrates of the bourgeoisie, with trade flags and civic emblems, and by the bands, kettledrums, and standards of the various cavalry regiments which have taken part in the procession. After all the people—a crowd of long coated, bearded people, struggling, and running, and sweltering together at the horses' heels. What happened more I cannot say, for (under all the cir cumstances) I could not be in two places at once, but many anecdotes of restif horses and agitated carriages were related to me, and what follows I give on the authority of the official report, and from the evidence of eye-witnesses. At the moment the Emperor entered the city of Moscow a salvo of seventy-one guns was fired by the artillery outside the town ; and the Go vernor-General of the city, at the head of all the officers and employes of the military de partments, received his Majesty, and afterwards Joined the procession. Tho functionaries of the Hotel de Ville and the city magistrates received him at the entry of the Quarter Zemlenoy-Gored, and the Marshal and the nobility of Moscow at that of the Quarter Beloy-Gorod. Thence the pro cession moved on to the Gate of the Resurrection (Vosresenskie Vovota), where the vi hole cortege, all save the Emperor and two carriages, moving rapidly on, was lost to sight inside the Kremlin. Here two arched gateways, piercing the thick walls of the ancient citadel, lead to the spacious squares within. Between them, on the outer side of the wall, there is a gilded and azure coloured box, which is called the Chapel of our Lady of Iberia. It is almost small enough to be a toy, and is covered outside with stars of gold, and the doors are richly gilt. A flight of two or three steps leads to the narrow platform on which the chapel stands, and here the ground was covered with carpeting an d cloth. Just opposite to this spot there was a stand for the French officers and visitors, erected pro bably by the care of their Minister. The English visitors found places as best they might by paying for admission to the balconies in the streets. The carriages of the Imperial family drew up in the open space before this chapel, and the Emperor, alighting from his horse, handed the Empress- Mother first from her carriage, and next assisted the Empress to the chapel. There they all knelt on the platform "pour saluer l'-image de _Notre Dame d'lberie," and having kissed some portion or other of the chapel, they entered the shrine, and there offered up their prayers, after which they proceeded to rejoin the cortege within the gate. The clergy, in full canonicals of the costliest kind, were present, received his Majesty, and assisted at this ceremony ; and at the gate the go vernor and the civil authorities of the Government of Moscow were in attendance to pay their rever ences to him. Inside the Kremlin an immense crowd, civil and military, were seated on benches and seats ; the pavement was also thronged by a mass of persons to whom the right of entry had been accorded by the authorities, all of whom welcomed the Emperor with great enthu siasm. The cortege slowly wound its way through this brilliant assemblage to the Sacred Gate of the Saviour, called Sparkie Vovota, in passing through which every man must uncover, where the Em peror and Empress were received by the Com mandant of Moscow and the officers under his orders. The clergy attached to the churches inside the Kremlin were assembled before the porch of their several edifices holding the sacred images and crosses in the air to welcome, and the Senat Dire geant was ranged at each side of the entrance of the cathedral. Here their Majesties left their car riage, and the Emperor descended from his charger and advanced towards the door of the cathedral, at which they were met by the Holy Synod and the clergy, who had previously chanted a Te Ileum, en actions de graces, for the happy arrival of Lis Majesty, and who awaited him with the cross and the holy water. Amid the sounds of a solemn chant and the prayers of the people the Emperor and the Empresses entered the cathedral, and at the same moment a salvo of 85 guns was fired to announce the fact. Their Majesties having kissed the sacred " images," among which are a picture of the Virgin, painted by S t . Luke, and a miraculous portrait of our Saviour—walked in solemn pro cession, preceded by the Metropolitan of Moscow, to the Cathedrals of the Archangel Michael and of the Annunciation, where they kilssed more ima6efi 1 y .. .,6/ / irft - .. mow` , - , Zt, , /` pi, , IST __and ho les, among which are a ne il Cr a robe of our Saviour;and a par o . 4 .# t: qs , v izif e.

During this time the bells never ceased to ring, nor the people to cheer and pray ; and the aspect presented by the squares of the Kremlin, as the dense concourse of people with uncovered heads besought the blessing of Heaven on their Sovereign, has been described to me as something v er y grand affecting. The procession and the proceedings lasted more than three hours. Till late at night the populace con tinued to throng the courts and squares, and soon after it was dark the palace and barracks of the Kremlin were brilliantly illuminated. The Corps Diplomatique witnessed the procession from the windows of the palace of a princess who enter tained them to dinner and gave a ball in the even ing. SATURDAY, ADO. 30. The Emperor inspected the Preobragmaki Regiment of the Guard in the courtyard of the Kremlin to-day. The troops were in magnificent order, and were much admired, and after the parade the Tartars and Cossacks performed various feats of horsemanship. Subsequently several English, French, Persians. and Austrians had the honour of being presented to his Majesty. He leaves the Kremlin to-night to pass the interval till the day of his coronation in — prayer and fasting at the couniry house, which has been fitted up for his reception by Count Cheremetieff, one of the greatest and richest of the Russian nobility. No accident of a serious character occurred in the streets yesterday, nor was there the smallest disturbance or violence, although the police, by order of the Emperor, were kept out of view, and were not permitted to appear along the line of the pre cession. It is said that upwards of 500,000 persona were present at the ceremony, and their behaviour is certainly most exemplary. There is talk of a great act of grace for tie day of the coronation—namely, the emancipation of all who shall be borne after the _ _ crown hae been placed on the Emperor's head, bet there seems to be no foundation for it. For several days there will be nothing to do ; and if the weather is bad, as it threatens to be, the interval will be rather dreary for most strangers in Moscow. Upwards of 100,000 troops are concentrated near Moscow ; and it is in tended to have a grand parade and field day on Mon day next. The Grand Duke Constantine will hold a levee to•morrow, at which foreigners of rank will be presented. The magnitude and grandeur of the illuminations can almest be realised even now, before a lamp has been lit, and one hesitates to think of the extraor dinary co:tp crwl which will await him who gazes from the Kremlin on the undulating expanse of twinkling fires which will extend for many a mile like some new firmament around him. Every house in this vast city is provided with some external framework for the dis play of coloured lamps ; the windows and the door frames, the very eaves, are furnished with light slips of wood, plain or painted, to which are affixed loops of wire for holding the small glass cups filled with oil and wick, which will furnish the larger part of the illumi nations. In some instances these frames are hie bly ornamental, although they are the work of the mujik with the universal axe. The fineness and lightness of the workmanship is wonderful, considering the persona and the instruments by which it is executed. The palaces, the churches, and the public buildings and offices which ars innumerable, display ambitious screens and devices , of which the most usual are the Imperial N (or H, as it is written in Russian) and triangles and stars in wood. The walls of the boule• yards of the Kremlin, of the Government edifices—nay, the rails along the streets—will be decorated in a simi lar fashion, and the sky will be reddened by the glare of fires as wide-spread, but more harmless than those which lighted the French out of the ancient capital just 44 years ago. If there is no great dis play of fancy, there is at all events an extent and universality about the preparations which give them an Oriental character, and augur well for the result. The immense length and width of the wind ing streets, the irregularity of the houses, the size and number of the squares, market-places, b.rulevards, and public walks—and, above all, the multi plicity of the churches and their infinite variety of dome, cupola, and spire permit so many curves and lines of light ttr be visible at the same time that the eye is never fatigued by a repetit:en of the same effect. The great di Is ficulty one experiences in finding out or seeing anything here is to cross the gulf which separates you from the people around you. Here is a nation in which the little a_raps of French, German, and Italian which enabled you to get your meals, and move and have your being in other countries, are useless, and will a rt rescue you from starvation. If an "enlightened foreigner" on visiting England is but half as perplexed and helpless as an Englishman in Russia, he ought to be an object of the profoundest sym pathy to every one who possesses the smallest spark of humanity. I cannot imagine any position much more appalling than a seat in a drosky with a wild being before you who is absolute master of your fate, who does not understand or want to understand you, who goes on when you want to stop, and obstinately insists on knock-. ing at the most morose-looking doors and on introducing you to a belacquered lacquey gifted with an unknown tongue when you desire to go on, who whirls you for mills through tortuous streets, studded with gilded churches, all so like that you seem to be constantly gal fordag past the same edifice, whose fares are impossible, and whose change is ridiculous, and whom you cannot force to take you baCk to the place from whence came you, chocked with dust, starved, and hot, you faintly strive, by pantomime worthy of Grimaldi, to signify that you have abandoned your search after au invisible house, and want to return to your Russian home. But the position is not only morally but physically painful. No one who has not tried the adaptability of short legs to the sides of a dray horse can conceive how dolorous are the results of the first drive in one of these ingenious vehicles, whereon you sit straddle•legged behind the driver, whom you are sometimes driven involuntarily to embrace as he whirls round a corner in his mad career. The seat. is about as pleasant as that on the bask of an Irish jaunting car with both sides removed. There are droskies of another and more convenient form, but the Russians always engage them, and the others remain unused until the unwary stranger, yielding to the force of circumstances and the sense of novelty, mounts, and is lost for the day. In vain does he consult his vocabu lary. He can find out what is the Russian for "a preserve where they keep live fish," or, " I trust, honoured sir, that you possess excellent health," and many pleasant phrases for shopping and for tea-drinking, bat he will not di • ver the smallest clue to the mystery of communicating to the driver his desire to "get down and have another car riage." Should he artfully construct a compound sea • tence, and with insnite pains give it utterance in speech, the hairy ruler of his destinies for the day shakes his head and shrugs his shoulders at the jargon addressed to him, in which a few "schtch's" and " tchsch's" are left out very probably, and, imagining it to be some remon strance on the score of speed, urges his horse at a flying gallop over the wavy wooden pavement. Such have been the sufferings of the man who cannot speak Russian and who cannot get a valet de place in St. Petersburg ; and they are, if passible, aggravated in Moscaw. It must be admitted that the drosky-drivers are intelligent and obliging, but "nods and becks and wreathed smiles" will not supply the place of the vernacular, and English men are to little used to pantomime that they are, gene rally speaking, less successful than their neighbours in the use of it. It is quite true that every officer, almost every well-dressed man one sees in the streets, speaks French or German, but, even if he can be stopped and spoken to, his instructions to the driver only carry the stranger to one point, where it is likely enough he will not get. (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) MOSCOW, SUNDAY, SEPT. 7. His Imperial Majesty the Emperor Alexander 11. was solemnly crowned to-day, at 12 o'clock. The ceremony took place in the Uspenski Ssobor, and the act of coronation was performed by Archbishop Philaretee, the Metropolitan of Moscow. Among the special Ambassadors who were present were Earl Granville, Prince Esterhazy, M. Castalber gone, and the representative of the Sultan. The proceedings had all that august appearance which immense preparatio❑ bad designed. An immense crowd assembled at the Kremlin Palace and in the streets, and very great enthusiasm was every where manifested. The ringing of bells, the firing of cannon, the parade of troops, the cereminials of the Church, the procession to the Palace, and the decora tions of the city, rendered the whole affair most in spiriting. The coronation was favoured by beautiful weather. Count Orloff was created a Prince, Prince Woronzoff a Field-Marshal, and Generals de Berg and Sournarokhoff Counts.
