elected one of them. M. Salverte, an Ultra-liberal can- '
dilate, was next on the list, but not having the " absolute
majority" necessary, a new ballot is at this moment taking
place, which will end most likely in the return of M.

P.S.—The following is another version of the Mini-
sterial affair, on which rely:—
At one o'clock this day the late Ministry met and deli.
vered to the King, en masse, their resignations. They
were accepted at the end of an audience of 25 minutes.
The new Ministry are not named to me by my last-men-
tioned informant—he only added in a private note that
they would be of the Berenger (centre gauche, or mode-
rate) school. This is not at variance with my first account.
I have time only to add that every instant the most de-
plorable news is expected from Poland. Even had the
Ministry triumphed yesterday, a sad catastrophe in Poland
would have destroyed them.

(From the Journal des Debats of Tuesday.)
We have received recent news from Russia, by a com-
mercial courier. It seems the Emperor Nicholas is af-
fected by a consumption, which insensibly undermines his
constitution, and will, in all probability, soon bring him
to his grave. The intelligence of Nicholas's approaching
decease, is accompanied with appropriate reflections on the '
file of the Emperors of Russia, since Paul I. The mas-
ters of the vast empire wishing to govern with means out
of proportion with the resources of the country, have ex-
cited general discontent. All weak Emperors will reign
but a short time in Russia. The Grand Duke Constantine,
who will succeed his father, has not reached his fifth year,
and it is not difficult to anticipate that, on the demise of his
father, great events will take place in Russia."
