is the political meaning of this article—an article

Emperor himself? It would be presumption in.'s

seeing that the matter is a profound secret to the
Senators themselves; but from what I hear, I

this, the government contemplates the adoption of
some financial measures which will probably create
profound dissatisfation amongst the higher classes,.
and which will, perhaps, rather seriously affect their'
pecuniary interests; and it thinks that if the'
Senate can be made to take the initiative in pro-
posing these measures, the obloquey then Will not,

or two of the expected measures have been named
to me; they are of what is called in this country
a Socialist character. One of them, for instance,
is (what was talked of some time ago) a tax on
railway shares. However, I only give you this
version as 'a supposition entertained by some'
high political personages, whom I have the'
privilege of consulting. It may, or may not, be
true.

of Russia, and new instructions for Prince Gorts—

of Saturday :

RUSSIA.

ST. PETERSBURG, JAN. 3.
The great council of war is concluded, and from what
has transpired on the subject it appears that the Russiats
tactics for the approaching campaign have undergone,
some important modifications.

Various orders sent off from head quarters would
seem to indicate the resolution to abandon the Crimea
altogether, for a part of the troops are ordered to march
for the Caucasus to reinforce the corps of Geoeral-
Mouraviefi, whilst others have orders to join the grand
army of the centre, un ler General Panitiune.

THE ILL I IC.

KIEL, JANUARY 8.
:We still have open water, and there is no interruption
to the activity which, for the last ten days, has so
universally prevailed between the lower ports of the
Baltic and those of Russia, which, notwithst:inding the.
winter, are still accessible to trading vessels under
canvas, although it is long since the weather in those
regions has become too boisterous or too severe for the
war-steamers of England ; and it is to be hopei that
those English merchant vessels, which their owners and
charterers have still ventured to despatch to Memel,'
licenigsburg, and other Prussian deposits of Russian
produce, may nut fall a prey to some of the cruizt•rs
the Czar, while the protection they had a right to expect
from the British navy has been so prematurely
drawn.
