The Moscow regiment made difficulties
The companies Of Grenadiers Of that
regiment went out of their barracks
with the colors, and proclaimed Con-
stantIne !. This troop proceeded to
the Place Isaac, where it was soon aug
mented by party of the dregs of the
populace, some soldiers and marines OF
the guards-No other corps took part
in the sedition, and il appears that the
number of rebels did not exceed 1000
men. Gen. Miloradnvitch went in the
Place TO harangue the rebels but at
that lnstan, man fired pistol at him,
and he died few hours after. The
Emperor himself appeared unarmed,
and endeavoured in vain TO quell the
mutiny. At length, finding all mild
means truitless, and after having useless
ly explained the circumstances of Con-
stantine's remuneration, he was forced
to cause troops and cannon to come up.
The rebels formed themselves into a
square battalion, and had the audacity
TO fire first, but were soon dispersed
and pursued in all directions. The
number of killed is computed at 600
AT . O'Clock order was restored new
ertheIess the troops which remained
faithful, (and they formed the greater
part,) bivouaCked all night :ound the
Palace. The Grand Duke Michael
who had arrived at ST. Petersburg at
the moment of the tumult, succeeded in
bringing TO duty the six companies of
the Moscow regiment who did not take
part in the revolt, but had refused to
take the oath and conducted them TO
the aid of his brother. Gen. Fride-
RIGS and Gen. Shenschin were wounded.
The Emperor, who throughout the day
displayed the most noble character, re-
viewed the troops on the following day
| (Dec. 27th). The marines of the
Guards manifested the greatest repen-
lance, and obtained their pardon but
several officers were arrested. During
four hours which were passed in par
leylng before it was determined 10 en-
ploy force, the number of the rebels
augmented very little; and it is most
probable that the greater part were
rather misled than culpsble.
MExIco.-The National Journal pub
fishes translation of the Message 81
President Victoria, made to the Mexican
Congress at the opening of their Session,
on the lst of January. The document
is written in dignifed, manly style, and
contains very interesting picture of that
country, which, there appears to be the
most decisive evidence, is rapidly i'm
proving in the administration of its gov
eminent, its internal condition and exte-
rior relations.
The flag of Spain, he remarks, which
Cortes raised, has now been lowered in
the Gulf of Mexico. The treasury is in
a flourishing state, and the public credit
improving. Very little of the last loan
has been devoted 10 ordinary expenses,
but principally for the army, navy, &c.
The creation of funds has produced a
beneficial effect. quarter part of the
customs are deposited in the ports, TO
meet the payment of dividends and or
binary liquidation, without recourse TO
the last loan. The resources of the
country, it is believed, will fully supply
the wants of the present year.
An expedition sent TO examine the
isthmus of Tehuaatepec, have reported
that the possibility of canal between
the two oceans is qnite doubtful but a
road is recommended. The manufacto-
ries of paper, iron, glass, and cotton
thread, the working Of the mines, and
above all, commerce and trade, have
much extended.
The President gives flattering view
of the exterior relations The favour
able measures of the British govern
ment, in spite of the remonstrances of
Spain and the acknowledgment of
Hayti by France, together with the re-
cent determination of the latter country
to send out commercial agents 10 Mexico,
are noticed with qualification. The
King of the Netherlands has acknowI-
edged IA provisional Council Prussian
commercial agent is in Mexico; the
Swedish and Danish gazettes declare the
sentiments of their governments favour
able, and Russia has yet manifested no
unfriendly disposition towards the Re-
public. II is added that the Mexican en-
voy, who arrived in Brussels in August
last, will probably be received at the
Vatican. The most friendly relations
exist with the South American nations,
and the deputies were to sail in the
course fthe month for Panama.
