The Emperor Nick0ios-Ais time nearly o.
"A fundamental law Of Russia, of date ~anterior
to Peter the Great, and still in force, forbids the
continued reign of any Emperor for a perio 4
longer than twenty-five years, and obliges his.
at the expiration Of that period TO abdicate the
imperial throne to the heir apparent of til
crown. Should he oppose this law, and contin,
ne his reign, he will do so in opposition TO IL
whole of the nobility and aristocraey of the En-.
pire, a numerous and daring body, and at tas
risk of being stabbed or strangled in his palace.
Such, at least, was the custom in olden times, Ia
relation to The Cars. The Emperor Nichola
completed the 22d year of his reign, the first q
December, ls47, and can continue on The thron'
less than three years, If he lives that long. No
Emperor OF Russia has, for a long period OF
time, completed the t~weniy-ffih year of hi
reign. This position Of the Emperor is engac-
ing the attention Of the political circles at s..
Petersburg, generating intense anxiety TO learn
the course the Emperor will pursue. "Many
suppose that he will abdicate in favor Of the
Prince Royal, Alexander Nicoleiwitseh, who !
now 20 years Of age, and that he will retire inii
Germany, The more general opinion is that h
will conyoke the Senate for the purpose of hay-
ing this barbarons law revoked, and thus be en-
abled to continue his reign without fear Of ths
mobiles, The Emperor himself avoids all allusio,'
