The Emperor Alexander has issued ukases abolishing in several governments the exceptional administrations created with reference to a state of war, and has restored in those districts the ordinary system of government as established before the outbreak of hostilities. ERZEROUDI ' March 4.—Th e rumours of peace have had the effect of lowering the prices of provisions by one third, and of other commodities by one-half. Certain speculators will be grievously disappointed here if the war should come to an end, for they calculated on a blockade of this city, as was the case before Kars. AceinENT.—On Saturday night last a number of persons were assembled at a wake, in the top room of a house, in Colman-st., Cork. The floor gave way and the house fell, and eighteen persons were killed on the spot. In the course of yesterday (Sunday), three other persons were discovered, making a total of twenty-one killed, and it is feared many more will have been found to have shared the same fate. THE IMPERIAL NURSES —When, on the occasion of the defile of the dignitaries and general officers before the cradle of the Imperial Prince, Mdmas. de Brancion and Bizot, under-governesses, and the widows of two valiant victims of the war, saw generals Bosquet and Canrobert approach, they burst into tears, and the ceremony was not a little troubled by this touching episode. For the rest of the day, those two eminent survivors of the campaign delicately avoided attracting the attention of the unfortu nate ladies. REJOICINGS AT SEBASTOPOL FOR THE BIRTH OF THE PRINCE IMPERIAL.—The Monileur of Saturday contains the following despatch from Marshal Pelissier, dated Sebastopol, March 23 :—" This morning, the French, English, and Sardinian armies and the fleets fired salutes of 101 guns each, in honour of the birth of the Prince Imperial. During the day the Commanders-in-Chief of the English and Sardinian armies came officially to offer me their congratulations. There have been illuminations in the camps, and the Russians illuminated their line on the Inkermann.' The Russian organ at Brussels, Le Nord, is directing its best efforts for the purpose of separating France and England. It says—Lord Clarendon plainly told the Emperor that all the responsibility of the treaty will be thrown upon him, Napoleon 111. Lord Clarendon de clares, that if England has not obtained conditions more unfavourable to Russia it is because the Emperor of the French wished for nothing but peace ; it was necessary either to sign the treaty or to break off the alliance with Louis Napoleon, and Lord Clarendon and his colleagues have thought that the possible advantages of a continua tion of the war could not atone for this.

SILAS'S WORKING MENS' PROTESTANT ASSOCIATION.— Monday evening, the Rev. S.

The admission was by ticket, and the proceeds are to be devoted to the above association, which owes its origin chiefly, we believe, to the rev. lecturer. The attendance was numerous. HOUSEBREAKING AT BIRKENHEAD.—WiIIiam Clarke, 29, a cabinet maker, was charged with breaking into the shop of William James Grimshaw, at Birkenhead, on the 2nd of February, and stealing therein a quantity of butter, cheese and ham. The case was fully sustained against the prisoner, on the evidence of several ;,witnesses from Liver pool and Birkenhead, including two officers of the Liver pool detective force, and a verdict of Guilty was returned.

SUDDEN DEATLIS.—On Monday, several cases of sudden deaths of children were reported to Mr. Blake, the coroner's beadle, and among them was one of a child aged four months, the offspring of deaf and dumb parents. The father is a tailor, residing in Grafton-street, Park, and both father and mother are stated to be persons of much intelligence, and can read and write well.—John Stock, the master of a flat on the Leeds canal, died on Sunday under the following circumstances. On Friday night, the deceased, whilst in a state of intoxication, fell into the canal, and, though got out soon after, death ensued.—Dorothy Porthouse, the wife of a sailor, residing in Leander-street, was found dead in bed on Sunday morning. THE IMPERIAL BIRTH.--The following is a translation of a letter from the Emperor of France received by M. Charles de Farjon, professor of the French language and of mathematics, in this town, on the occasion of the birth of a prince :—" Palace of the Tuileries, 28th March, 1856 — Monsieur,—The Emperor has received the verses you have addressed to him on the occasion of the birth of his High ness the Prince Imperial. His Majesty has ordered that his thanks should be sent to you for the expression of the kind sentiments which they contain. In obedience to his commands I have great pleasure in communicating the above to you. Receive Monsieur, the assurance of my highest esteem.—Alexander de Dolmas, Chief of the Cabinet of the Emperor. To Monsieur Charles de Farjon, Professor of the French Language, 27, Mount Pleasant, Liverpool." The above letter is very complimentary to a young man residing amongst us, and who has also received a flattering acknowledgment to an address presented to bis Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, on the occasion of his visit to Liverpool. LITERARY AND PHILOSOPHICAL SOCIETY.—TiIe adjourned ordinary meeting of this society was held on Monday, in the Royal Institution, Colquitt-street, Dr. Ihne in the chair. Mr. John Grainger, A. 8., and Mr. John Towne Danson, F.S.S., were elected ordinary members of the society. The paper of the evening was "Upon the extraordinary and abrupt changes of fortune of Jasper, Earl of Pembroke, afterwards Duke of Bedford, in the 15th century," by Mr. Richard Brooke, F.S.A. The paper, which was the merest outline of the life of the remarkable man whose history it sought to illustrate, was of a most interesting character, the extraordinary changes which it mentioned as having taken place in his fortunes going far to proving the justness of the adage, that " truth is stranger than fiction." In prefacing the paper, Mr. Brooke observed, that it was much to be regretted that the lives of the many eminent men—states men, warriors, divines—which the 15th century had given birth to in England, had never been written. Such a labour, he considered, would amply repay the time which the anti quarian and historian might bestow on it. The chairman and other gentlemen concurred in the opinion of Mr. Brooke, and expressed a hope that this want in our historical liter ature would be soon filled up, now that the state papers were being arranged, and about to be made more accessible to the public. At the next meeting of the society a paper on " Adulteration of Food," will be read by Mr. H. S. Evans, F.C.S. THEWELLINGTON TESTIMONIAL.-011 Monday a numerous meeting of the subscribers to the " Wellington Testimonial" was held in the'council chamber, at the Town Hall, in the presidency of Mr. J. B. Lloyd, who opened the proceedings by stating that, so long ago as 1854, he had p r e s id e d over a meeting, at which it had been resolved to erect, as a testi monial to the hero of Waterloo, a column, ard on that resolution subscriptions had been supplied. The amount was, however, insufficient for the purpose of erecting a column of a suitable height, with a statue of the late duk2 to surmount it, at a less expense than from £lO,OOO to £12,000. The committee had therefore convened the present meeting of subscribers, to discuss and decide what course should be pursued. Mr. Moss stated that the amount subscribed was £5,893 16s. Gd., and that of this sum the whole had been collected, with the exception of £l6l ls., which, however, was forthcoming, and which, added to the interest (L 551 2s. Bd.) on the sum already realised, left a fund of £6,275 10s. to be disposed of for the purpose originally contemplated. A considerable discussion ensued on the question of abandoning the original intention of a column and adopting au equestrian statue as a more suitable memorial to the late Duke of Wellington. This deviation was objected to by Mr. C. Turner, who moved " that an advertisement be issued for designs for a column with a statue on the top, and that estimates of the cost, separating the column from the statue, should accompany the design." He objected to a deviation from the intention of the original subscribers in their absence. The motion of Mr. C. Turner was seconded by Mr. Arkle, and a long discussion ensued, in the course of which Messrs. Lawrence, W. Rathbone, R. C. Gardiner, and other gentlemen spoke in favour of an equestrian statue. Mr. James Aiken moved as an amendment that an eques trian statue be erected, and that the subscribers who did not agree to such a diversion of the funds, should have their money returned. The amendment was seconded by Mr. Grant, but after a debate was lost, and Mr. C. Turner's original motion carried. Accounts have been received of the death of Sir:Charles Hotharn, Governor of Victoria. It is said that the Russians intend to build a large fleet of commercial steamers at Nicolaieff. PARISIAN ON DlTS.—Connt Orloff was asked the other day, " Have you seea much of Paris since your arrival ?" " No," he replies?, " I have seen but the salle du Congres et des salles a manger." The Univers, of Paris, gives the following as a copy of the telegraphic message sent by the Pope, immediately on receiving tile news from the Emperor of the birth of an Imperial Prince, and which asked for the apostolic blessing :—"I bless the Emperor, the Empress, the Imperial Prince, and France." The Moniteur of Friday announces a grand review of troops by the Emperor, on Tuesday. It has always been understood that the proclamation of peace would be solemnized by a great military fete, and at the Bourse, on Saturday, it was considered certain that peace would be declared on or before the 31st. It is explained by the Moniteur that the destination of the division of infantry, ordered for immediate embarkation at Mar seilles, is not for the Crimea but Algeria. Conformably to the report of a council of ministers, the King of Prussia has decided that the present moment was not favourable for the creation of a credit.mobilier in Prussia. SUICIDE By POISON.—On Wednesday, Mr. Wakley held an inquest on the body of Thomas Ward, a meat sales man, who destroyed himself by poison on Saturday, at Islington, in London. Deceased was of very intem perate habits, and came home with two women of the town in a cab ; went into his kitchen, and in the scullery drank off the contents of a phial which contained the essential oil of almonds. Four other phials of a similar poison were found on his person. He died in a quarter , of an hour. None of th e phi a l s were l a b e ll e d " po i son ,'' and the coroner, and medical men examined, remarked, with emphasis, upon the dangerous laxity which permits the easy sale and purchase of such deadly poisons. , Ver diet, "Destroyed himself whilst temporarily insane." The Paris correspondent of the Times states, that when the Plenip o t en ti ar i e s repaired to the Tuileries, immediately after the signature of the Treaty, the Ern peror remarked that the favourable result was in a great measure owing to the conciliatory spirit, and the mode ration which marked the policy of England. The treaty was the complete realisation of the speech of Lord Clarendon in the House of Lords, and the peace was one which carried with it no humiliation to Russia, and did not compromise the dignity or independence of any one ; it therefore had all the elements of durability and solidity. The Plenipotentaries will resume their labours on Wednesday, and will not separate yet for sonic time. Other questions are pending, which it would not be proper to leave without consideration.
