RUSSIA.

ST. PETERBBITB.O, in. 11.

The Deutsche Petersbnrger Gazette denies the ru-
mour that France and Russia give moral support
to the German minor States in their resistance to
Prussia, and says :
" The interests of Russia in Germany are en-
tirely opposite to those of France. Germany is to
Franco a menace, to Russia she is a bulwark. For
Russia the unity of Germany is an advantage, and
the disunion of Germany a danger."
An Imperial reeoript has been sent to the no-
bility of Moscow, in reply to the address from that
body to the Emperor.

His Majesty says :—" The reforms which have
been prepared, and those already realised, suffi-
ciently prove my solicitude for the improvement, as
far as possible, of the political organization of the
eountry. The past must be a guarantee for the
future. No subject has a right to anticipate my reso-
lutions, nor is any class legally entitled to speak in
the name of others. Such violations of the law
can but retard my plans. I am fully convinced
that I shall never again meet with such obstacles
on the part of my faithful nobility."

The Minister of the Interior has been instructed
to communicate this rescript to all the governors of
provinces where assemblies of the nobility or prof
vincial assemblies meet.

PARIS. Mornay Evisntor
While writing I hear that something, if not merl-
ons at least exciting, has oxurred in the Corps
Legislatif this afternoon. On the adjourned de-
bate on the ultramontane question brought forward
by M. Gueroult, the majority raised loud cries of
"IA cloture ! la cloture ! " President Schneider,
upon a show of hands declared the debate at end ;
and, thereupon, }LGarnier Paghs exclaimed, "Dis-
cussion is stifled !" M. Schneider said, "You cannot
be permitted thus to speak of the decision of the
majority." MIL Pelletan and Jules Favre then
said something to the effect that the opposition was
coerced, and would not vote. The whole of the
left then quitted the house en moue, and the para-
graph of the address to which M. Gueronlt's amend-
ment was prepared passed nest. eon. I have not
heard whether the opposition members returned
to their places afterwards.

THE AMERICAN MINISTER AT BRUSSELS

ON THE ASSASSINATION OF MR. LINCOLN.
The following letter has been addressed by his
Excellency Mr. Sanford, the United States
Minister at Brussels, to the American Consuls in
Belgium :
Legation of the United States, Brussels, April 26, 1865.
Sir,—Another dreadful crime has signalised the slave-
holders' rebellion. After having bees marked by barberi-
ties which could only emanate from the influences of a
barbarous cause, its overthrow has culminated in a crown-
ing atrocity ; the President, whose assaisination was at-
tempted through the same influences at the outset, has
been murdered. A merciful God has weakened the arm
of the assassin who *ought to murder, in his sick bed, the
Secretary of State, and add another affliction to the country,
soother foal crime against society.
Elevated by his own worth from the humblest sphere to
a position of power and responsibility unequalled in the
world, Abraham Lincoln has given to mankind a raze ex-
ample of unselfish patriotism, integrity, and singleness of
purpose in working for the country's good, and carrying
out the behests of the people. The denomination of
" honest," which popular sentiment had affixed to his
name, will pass to history as his well-earned distinction,
with that of patriot and martyr. What a bright example
he leaves for those who follow after him !
Providence spared him to see the virtual accomplishment
of the great work to which he had been called. The rebel-
lion, end slavery, ire cause, are at an end ; and the Union is
not alooe preserved, but has gathered new strength and
vitality as • nation. Thank God, its safety or peril can
depend on the life of no one man ! Its government is but
an emanation of the popular will, and the ceasing away of
the elect of the people at an another time than the limit of
his presidential term, can cause no perturbation in the state,
The people remain, and their will is continued by his sue-
COMM
Called upon to mourn the death of a great and good man,
and the loss of an eminent chief magistrate, I have to re-
nest you to display your flag on the day, and for the three
following days, after the receipt of this communication at
half.enast ; also that you will cause the mutants( Amerissa
shipping in your port to hoist their figs for the same period
at half-mast. I have farther to request that you wear the
usual band of mourning for thirty days.—Respectfully
yours, (Signed) H. S. Samoan.

Mr. C. FORSTER brought up the report of the select
enewnittee appointed to inquire into the authenticity of the
ligatures attached to petitions presented to the house in
lemur of the claims of Prince dream Jab, and moved
Mot the report be reed by the clerk at the table.
The report was read accordingly, sod from it it appeared
that a Mr. George Morris Mitchell had been employed by a
solicitor and parliamentary agent to obtain petitions in
favour of the claims of Pneee Azeem Jab ; that the com-
mittee were satiated from the evidence of an expert, and
frees their own inspection, that the signatures to nineteen
of the petitions presented had been obtained by

el the names attached had been forged. It wee
that Mr. George Morrie Mitchell was saggedrobtain
rolld ain signatures at ld. each—(laughter)—and that
rest many of the names appended to the petitions had been
written without authority. After a due cossideration of
the whole of the evidence the committee had come to the
mateltision that Mr. Geo. Morris Mitchell had been guilty
elf the offence of fabricethig and affixing signatures to petr
Uses promoted to the home, and that in doing that he had

teresting amount of the progress of the society, and

ferred upon the poorer dames by the various steps they bad

by means of lectures in mechanic.' institutions and work.

PARIS. PSIDAT ETLYING.
This afternoon, at about 1 o'clock, four or tire
hundred students set: out in procession from the
Place de la Sorbonne, with the intention of pre-

[muting to Mr. Bigelow, the American minister, an

address of condolence on the murder of Presi-
dent Lincoln. On the Pont St. Michel

the procession was barred by a strong body
of police, and several students were arrested.
The remainder dispersed, and splitting up into
small sections, went on to the American embassy
to pay their respects to Mr. Bigelow. There is no
complaint to be made of the French police for inter-
fering with this noble demonstration of French
youth. The police merely anted according to the
light which guides the Empire of Napoleon 111.,
and which sees danger to order in every• assemblage

of more than twenty citizens. But a time is

probably at hand when the example of
self-government set by the United States,
which European monarchs hate to see, because
it shows the world that kingcraft is not so difficult
a trade as it is the interest of hereditary monopolists

to have it believed, will cause the ta;nduct of the
Paris students this day to be regarded in favourable

contrast to that of the government which inter,

fared with them.

M. Maurice July, advocate, the author of the
able and now famous pamphlet entitled" A

Dialogue in Hell between Machiavelli and Mon-
tesquieu," was this day sentenced to fifteen months'
imprisonment. The laws of the imperial author
of the " Life of Cesar," at where instance this

prosecution was instituted for a criticism on his
work, do not allow any report of libel cases, the
interests of " order" requiring, according to Napo.
leonic views, that the public should not have the
means of forming an opinion whether the accused
was or was not rightly condemned.

PRESIDENT JOHNSON.

We extract the following from the Trenton Daily
Monitor of March 22 :—W hen with the accounts of the in-
augural ceremonies at Wiwhiogton, came the report of the
disgraceful conduct on the pert of the man holding the
second office in the gift of the Republic, the statement was
hardly credited except by that portion of the people who
are still sore over the defeat of their schemes at the last
presidential election. When the report seemed to be con-
firmed, loyal cheek crimsoned with shame and in-
dignation, and an explanation was loudly demanded. It
was, indeed, a matter of the deepest import to all, of what-
ever party or opinion, who still lay claim to the title of
citizens of the Uoited States, and who have the honour of
their country at heart. It involved the moral status of the
United States among foreign nations, as well as at home
and with its own citizens. All felt it, and all deprecated
it, with the exception of the small portion who seemed to
gloat over and enjoy what was, if true, a disgrace common
to all. Feeling, as we did, the important bearing of such an
occurrence, we prepared as article on the subject, which,
hoping for further developments of • more satisfactory
character when pertiaau malice should have expended itself
and the truth could be known more clearly, we withheld.
We are now glad to learn that the facts of the case are of a
much leas painful character, removing the occurrence re-
ferred to from the impotatioo of crime and placing it in
the light of an accidental misfortune. A correspondent of
the Brooklyn Union narrates the circumstances as follows :
Andrew dolma:Hi, the vice-president, had been seriously
ill, and when be left Tennessee be was not strong enough
for the fatigue of the journey to Washington. Arriving I
there enfeebled and weak, without sleep or rest for several
days, on the morning of the 4th his physician and friends
advised him to brace himself with a glum of brandy. Not
acenetoesed to drink, it west to his head, and • mooed
shims was administered, which sent him crazy. H. is a
sober man, reliable, and in every way worthy of the respect
of the American people. The veserable F. P. Blair as-
sured the writer that he lad know' Andrew Johnson inti-
mately for twenty-five years, and he awn know him to
drink a drop. It was his extreme temperate habits
through life which reedited him for the prescription of his
• 1 frissds sad physician."

PARIS, WZDVNISDAT Evernro.
There were considerable fluctuations et the
Bourse. Business was dull at the commencement,
but there was a decided amelioration for the close.
Bente rose 15c. for cash and 20c. for account,
dosing at 67fr. 550., and 67fr. 850. 3tobflier rose
6fr. 25c. The Italian loan was little dealt in, and
scarcely varied to the extent of sfr. It seems
that the 14 per cent. interest offered foe money by
the Emperor of Mexico tickles the public appetite.
It is alleged that applicants for the honour of
supplying him with money will have to suffer
a greet reduction on the amount of their
tenders. The Cotutitutionnel, by way 9f removing
the scruples of those who may be thinking of the
Duke of Wellington's antiquated maxim that good
interest was only another term for bad security,
gives a lint of all the states who at different times
have borrowed on yet more extravagant terms ; and
mentions, by way of a clincher, that France herself
has paid as much as 40 pee tout.
The news circulated at the Bourse yesterday that
the Emperor wee not well enough to attend the re-
view was untrue. The Moniteur gives an amount
of his presence at it. His journey to Algeria is
considered to be certain, notwithstanding the re-
monstrance* of some of the ministers against it.
One of the collateral effects of the expedition will
be to bring into fashion some arsenical and sul-
phurous waters near Constantine, called, Amen
Miskoutine, which his Majesty, who bas been so
often recommended to drink those of Vichy and
Plombihres, now intends to try.

DEATH OF THEODOBIA TROLLOPE.

The Italian papers bring us intelligence of the
death of Thoodoeis Trollop., wife of Thome Adolphus
Trollope, at hie villa in Florence, • city in which she had
resided for many years affectionately respected, and where
she now lies in rest, universally lamented. She is known
to Beglish readers by her translation of " Nieolini s Arnaldo
de Buena,"e and by hr" Social Aspects 4 the Indian Revco-
lution," a work which origiaally appeared in the form of
letters published by the Atheneum, to which she was •
constant and cherished contributor. She has also written
several articles upon the modern Italian poets in the Corn-
Mil Magazine, sod was engaged in completing the aeries
at the time of her death. A few delightful papers from
her pen, reminiscences of her own childhood is her Davos.
shire home, appeared in All the Year Bound last year.
Her ardent love for her sewed and adopted oountry bad
rendered her thoroughly Italian in sympathy, end nowhere
will her loss be more deeply felt than in Italy, thoughno truer
Englishwoman *VW lived. "The foreign triads of I taly," says
the Oazzetta del Popolo of Florence, " who do battle for Italy
with brain and hand are an dear to mu fellow-citizens, and
their death afflicts us like the death of one of ourselves.
In simmering to-day the premature death of Theodosia
Trollops. which took place yesterday in Florence, we do
not hesitate to say that it is • sad lose for Italy." And
the Nazione of Florian says :—" It is with the deepest
sorrow that we have to register another loss for Italy.
English hors, ohs had It•lien sentiments that at ono,
ambled her to understand and appreciate the noble aspira-
tions of the nation which she had selected as her home."
A friend who knew her well writes of bee in the fol-
lowing touching terms :—" Without exception I have
never known any being on this earth so exquisitely good
and kind, no pure in character and in nature, so variously
accomplished sad yet so simple, and with a refinement
and grace that gave her perfect simplicity an indescribable
charm. Her loos will ever be poignantly and profoundly
felt by those who knew her in her own Florentine home,

The French iron-clad squadron will proceed on
Sunday next to Marseilles, where the Emperor will
embark on the 26th inst. for Algeria.
It is believed that his Majesty will return to
Toulon on the 20th May.

PARIS, Amu. 19.

The Patric of this evening says that the im-
portance and the duration of the Emperor's visit to
Algeria have been exaggerated. "The Emperor will
pass some days at Algiers, for the purpose of con-
certing with the governor of the colony, measures
necessitated by the state of our possessions. The
date of his departure is not yet fixed."
The Empress will assume the direction of affairs

In the Chamber of Deputies the discussion on

Signor Corsi, who brought up the report of the

the amendments. _ ... _ ..

The Ministers of Justice, Public Instruction,
Finance, and of the Interior supported the amend-
ments, and expressed their belief that should the
chamber resolve to discuss the whole bill it would
be equivalent to adjourning the debate indefinitely.
Signor Crispi spoke in support of the proposals

A reply was made on the part of the ministry
to Signor Criapi's speech, and the debate was ad-
journed till to-morrow.
The Chamber then proceeded to the discussion of

THE SPANISH SENATE.
MADRID, Ann. 19.
In the Senate to-day Senor Calderon Collantes
asked • question respecting the late disturbances
in Madrid, and said that the responsibility of the
murders of the 10th inst. rested entirely with the
government. The ministry for six months had
done nothing for the prosperity of the country, and
patriotism alone should prompt them to resign.
Senor Gonzales Bravo answered that the con-
sciences of the ministers were at ease, and that
they were supported by all the moderate party.
The discussion will be continued to-morrow.
