THE RUSSIAN NOBLES.

PSICOW, IlAaca...

Previously to joining the Assembly, opened in
this city yesterday, the nobles of the district have
held preliminary meetings to discuss their plan of
action, in face of the imperial rescript replying
to the address of the Moscow nobles. The great
majority have pronounced in favour of a motion
of confidence in the Emperor. While declaring that
the political rights sanctioned by the charter
to the nobility, issued by Catherine II.; do not
belong to the nobility alone, but are the pre-
cious appanage of the entire nation, it has
been resolved, that as the recent rescript
of the Emperor forbids the nobility to
speak in the name of the other classes
and of general interests, basing this prohibition upon
a literal interpretation of the laws relating to the
nobility, the Pskow nobles consider it essential
to abstain from using similar terms to the Moscow
address. The Pskow address will only *peak to a
central assembly, composed of representatives chosen
from all the provincial assemblies, according to the
plan proposed by M. Bezobrasoff, chamberlain
to the Emperor. This plan is made strictly in
conformity with the existing laws, and it will be im-
possible for the government to adopt legal measures
for its prosecution. The government, upon its part,
has appointed a special committee of functionaries
from the Ministry of the Interior, charged with
revising the laws upon the assemblies of nobles
within the shortest possible period. The labours of
this committee will be laid before the Council of
the Empire, so as to have the force of law.

THZ MET CONSIZTATTVVI.

The Tory representatives of Essex, the Telegraph
remarks, seem to consider that a enecession of failures
entitles them to public confidence and esteem. For any
enunciation of principles, any generous advocacy of
a cause from confidence in its justice and truth,
their speeches may be scanned in vain. Self, self,
self—what we did at the last election ; what
we hope to do in the next parliament—such is the burden
I of these harangues ; not what will conduce most to the
happieess sod prosperity, the material, intellectual, and
I moral advancement of our country. In truth the majority
of conservative statesmen have no distinctive faith.
The Star quotes Mr. Ralph Earle's declaration that " the
. evil of change would be eggr►v►ted if it assumed so limited
; and partial a character as to be wanting even in the elm-
blame of finality," and observes that it is just possible
, some bold policy in this direction is being revolved is
the Wain of a leader capable of great things in the way
!of political surprises. The Star begs to preseot Mr.
Disraeli with the suggestion sa almost the only policy left
open to bis party on a question in regard to which they
i have already committed themselves.

by Mr. G. Leeman, M.P., who contended that a fair

In today's sitting of the House of Nobles the

TRANSYLVANIA.
KLMETBEN BURG, Du. 6, EVIEVING.
The Transylvanian Diet to-day adopted the
motion brought forward by Herr Zeyk, that the
proposed address to the Emperor should declare the
Diet incompetent to change the Union Law of 1848,
and that consequently Transylvania should send
deputies to the Hungarian Diet.
His Majesty is therefore petitioned to summon
Transylvania to send members to the Hungarian

Diet.
At the desire of the Saxon members who voted
for the address, a paragraph was inserted requesting
his Majesty to maintain the municipal rights and
ecclesiastical self-government of the Saxon inhabi-
tants, and promising to support all just wishes of
the Rounisins in the Diet at Pesth.
Twenty-four Saxon members desired that the
conditions of the union between Transylvania and
Hungary should be laid down by the Transylvanian
Diet. The Roumain members proposed that
another Diet should be convoked on the basis of
the electoral law of 1864, by which the Union Bill
should be discussed.

bly adjusted."

MINISTERIAL CRISIS IN ITALY,

The Nazione of the 27th announces that the crisis
still continues, and says it can only refer its readers i
to the rumours in circulation. It was reported that
all difficulties had been overcome by the acceptance
on the part of Signor Laura of the portfolio of
finance. This, however, is a mere rumour, says
the Nazione, and nothing more. As might be
expected, complete silence is maintained in official
regions.
The Diritto, the organ of the Left, says : "We (lid
not hesitate a moment to say that General La Mar-
mora was the last person likely to succeed iu forming
an administration. Facts only too plainly show
we were right. The crisis is being protracted be-
yond all just limits, and the country is grievously
agitated by the sad spectacle of a blind obstinacy
that appears to be irritated by its own impotency."
According to the Diritto, Italy is tired of the
ministers who have by turns been iu power during
the last five years, and wants new men and a new
system. -------=

THE EXPIRING YEAR.

- -
Most of the journals this morning enter upon a
survey of the chief events of the expiring year.
in the domestic and political topics the death of Lord
Palmerston and Mr. Cobden stand out most prominently—
the various journals commenting open these events, the
proceedings of the late parliament, and the character
of the subsequent general election, each according to
its ordinary bias or party. Mr. Gladatone's budget,
and the resignation of Lord Chancellor Westbury,
are especially dwelt upon in the parliamentary review. The
readjustment of the cabinet, the anticipations of represents.
tive re!orm, and the singular discovery of Fenianam are the
only remaining topics of leading importance in this division
of the summary. In the wider field of the social life of
the country, such subjects as the Privy Counoirs
decision in the case of Bishop Coleus° ; the
betrothal of the QILIOD.4 third daughter ; the close of the
greet omit in famine ; the experiment with the unfortunate
Transatlantic cable; the interchange of visite between the
English and French Beets ; the Dublin Exhibition ; and the
rinderpest, are of course encountered and dealt with. There
is also in some of our contemporaries a list of the more
startling of the year's casualties and crime, and the usual
obituary, in which every important vacancy in the ranks of
public met is poieted out.
But in the world-wide view the year 1465 has been ren-
dered memorable chiefly by the conclusion of the American
civil war and the assassination of Mr. Lincoln, and these
of course fill up a large space in the various historical
sketches. Though tie remarks as to the put are coloured
by the sympathies originally felt, there is a general
assent in a kindly and approving criticism upon the
acts of the United States as now reconstructed.
Mexican affairs follow as a kindred subject, and Spain's
dispute with Chili is not overlooked. Coming nearer home,
the death °Oho King of the Belgians, the Algerian revolt,
the troublas.of the papal power, the success of the policy of
Count Bismarok, and the new relations between the Em-
peror Francis Joseph sad the Hungarians, press more im-
mediately upon our attention; while in the colonial de-
pertinent a glanee is taken at Canadian policy, the New
Zealand war, the knotty dispute in Victoria, and the
Jamaia catagropb e.
There is also a financial sketch of the year. It seems
that 287 new joint-stock companies have been brought out.
These companies may be thus analysed:
