A report was very generally current in the
-434 this morning, of the assassination of the
Emperor NICUOLAS. According to another vet--
Skit of the fable, his Imperial Majesty had been
his own executioner. Although the rumour was in
•TPry mouth, no one could tell the source from
whence it emanated. We feel no hesitation in
ascribing it to the Bears, whose case, the belief
of inch a catastrophe might help, on Thursday.

Notwithstanding the notorious decrepitude of
