Minister Plenipotcntia,y from tho Uni-
ted States 10 Russia, has recently written
letter to his friends i! home. He says
On the 18th of August was presen-
ted to the Emperor, Empress, and other
members of the imperial family. The
ceremony took place at Pelerhoot--some
ten miles dis,ant--where the Emperor's
palace is situated. There was less for
mality than | expected. A speech from
the minister was dispensed wnh, accord
ing TO custom here. and the whole cere-
mony between the Emperor and myself
was a mere conversation of about ten
minutes. He is a fine looking man,
and would impress any one with the
idea of superiority. lie is over six feet
high--well builL--with marked face and
head-and his manner and conversation
Indicate great energy OF character. He
is said TO be the most laGorious man in
the empire. His eye is upon every de-
pariment saw him on Two other Oc-
caslons on the parade ground drilling his
troops. On one day there were $4,000
troops. Of all arms, under parade and un-
der the eye of The Emperor. There is
not much intercourse between Russia
and the United States. There has rot
been an American ship here since arri-
we'd. Several causes exist for this. In
the first place, we buy very little from
Russia: some sheet iron, drilling ans.
sail cloth, make up the principals: and
wha, she used to buy from us directly,
is now bought intermediately through
Great Britain. Our vessels find blu. lit.
tie inducement to come here, for. in the
main, they have to return in ballast. |

rIOre Annexation.

By he mails OF the steamship Ohio
which reached here on Saturday last
we received private dispatches of mosl
important character from California
which induces III TO believe that it is,
and has been meditated, FOR long time
past, BY some of The mos, influential and
leading men Of tina! new State, to organ.
ize an expedition Of Americans, and pro,
coed to that portion of Mexico known
as Lower California, with the view OF
assisting The people of that territory in
declaring their independence of the Cen
trail Government, and afterwards seeking
incorporation with this Republic, in pre-.
cisely the same manner as the American
adventures in Texas acted. This intel
ligence is derived from such sources as
place its reliance almost beyond doubt.
In fact, we are informed that some choice
spirits from New York and other cities,
on the Atlantic side of The continent,
have recently sailed from here, in one OF
the California steamships, for the pur-
pose Of taking par, in this proceeding,
and of conducting j, to saccess.--N. Y.

To the Patrons Of tho Courier

In assuming The entire control and
management of the editorial department.
of the Courier, l am not unmindful Of
the responsibility that incur. While
conducting it in connexion with my wor-
thy associate and partner, K. II WAR
DEN, it was ever my desire and aim, not
only to make The Courier interesting and
useful in sustaining and advocating the
great State and local interests in which
we are so deeply concerned, and upon
which our prosperity so much depends;
but to sustain by fair and candid argu-
menl the principles of the great political
party TO which | have ever belonged
believing as | candidly do, that upon
their adoption measurably depends the
future permanency, prosperity and great
ness of our noble Stale, and more glori-
Gus and noble Republic. AT the same
time | have ever desired and sought TO
avoid wounding the feelings Of, or infrin-
eing upon the rights of any aud all hon
orable men who have chosen to differ
with me, no doubt sincerely and honest
ly, in relation TO the principles that
should be adopted in National and State
policy. That have been free from err
rors, during the height Of political strug-
giles and discussion, | do not claim
Who, ask, has!
In the future conduc, of the most DIFF
fcult department of the Courier, shall
exert myself TO the extent of my ability
10 interest and inform the mind--defend
the rights of, and advocate the princi-
pies that will secure the greatest good
TO the greatest number Of our people.
