TIE EMPEROR OF RUSSIA.


We alluded Yesterday, to story OF the alb
die alton of his right of accession by prince Con-
stantine, in favour of his brother Nicholas. We
have received the following information on
this subject from an intelligent friend who re-
sided some time in Russia. He understood that
the Grand Duke Constantine, the brother next
in age to Alexander, had relinquished his right
to the succession, on condition OF being APP
pointed Viceroy of Poland, and OF receiving
permission to marry Polish lady, to whom he
was attached. The Grand Duke Nicholas, the
mex, oldest brother, was commander OF the I'm
perial Guard, 10000 men, the flower OF the ar
my earrisoned at St. Petersburgh. lie has a
son about eight years ofage, and ii was under
stood that he was 10 be the successor to the
emperor Alexander,
If there is any thing in this story, 1t is lit
tie remarkable that the arrangement has not
been made known, by the publication OF such
documents as would be sufficient to attach Gre
di, to 1t. None that We know Of have been
published 1t has been understood 10 be the
settled law Of succession to the crown OF Russia
that the state is indivisible-that the sovereign
shall be ruler of no other kingdom-shal be OF
the Greek church-and the inheritance descend
by right Of primogeniture in the male and ie-
male line. boston Daity .2ace'f'SeT.

Georgia Ueddng.-It appears from the Da-

ted his friends to his wedding, and Ball which
he gave in honor of the event. The company
assembled, the magistrate and fiddlers were
present, as well as the bride and bridegroom,
The bride being solicited to receive the ring,
she peremptorly refused, observing that she
had changed her mind. The company think
ing the bride had only been seized with mo-
mentary whim, ordered the musicians TO strike
up 'hasle to the wedding" when she and John
Odena Immediately began dancing, and all the
company Joined in. The bride after the dance
still continued TO refuse her hand to John Ode
ma, and the lady hostess of the house, fearful
perhaps; that some unpleasant disputes might
arise, entered the room with club, and drove
the whole company into the street.
Congressmen mistaken in an important point OF
4merican Hstory-The Editor of the New
York Evening Post, makes the following re-
marks:-
We cannot let this occasion pass without
saving, that never was greatsr mistake, IN
point fact, than that stated by the Hon. mem
Der from Virginia. Mr.. Floyd, in the course of
his speech Through defect of memory UNI
questonably, certainly rot desgnedly) that
Washington, when he made the British treaty,
went first to the house and ascerrained whether
the requisite funds to carry it into effect would
be granted, and then made the treaty Diane
,ricaly opposite to this was his conduct; he
concluded the treaty first by the advice and
consent Of the senate, whose exclusive province
it was to make il, and afterwards and not till
then, he applied to the house of representatives
for tie requisite funds to carry it into effect,
correctly considering that house bound by the
con stitution TO make the necessary grants -
We cannot permit this mistake of Mr. Floyd's
to pass unnoticed. Mr. Livingston, too, we are
sorry TO perceive by his speech has fallen into
a similar error

Philadelphia, Feb. 9-About three O'Clock this
morning, the Farmers's Brewery, at the corner
of Tenth and Filbert streets, was discovered TO
be on FIRE, but in consequence Of the prompt a
larm given by Class, Waterman Of the City,
with the aid of other watchmen, some of the
people of the establishment, and citizens, the
flames were speedily exGnguished.
We further know that the prompt and vigil

MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS.

Sdgacify Of Rafs.--A merchant in Warren,
Il. |. who had considerable quantity of mo.
lasses in one OF his back stores, became sorely
vexed at always finding the vent-boes open,
although great care was taken to have them
properly stopped. So much was his curiosity
excited, that he at length determined to wit
ness, with his own eyes, the out pulling of the
plugs. He accordingly took an opportunity to
have the store doors closed upon them and
had not waited in this situation long, before
two OF the whiskered gentry mounted tier of
hogsheads, and very deliberately pulled out
the vent-stoppers, and. proceeded to drop their
tails into the round holes, besmear them with
the rich liquid, pull them out again, and lick
it off! This beats all methods taken to lick
molassss which have come within our know
