Russian Conspiracies.

In Russia only two sorts of conspira-
cies are possible palace conspiracies
and military instructions. There was
certainly some ground for alarm in the
temper Of the great masses of the popu-
lation of St. Petersburgh, in the year
1881, but it was not of a po itical char
acter. The cholera, breaking out with
violence, had swept away its victims
with startling rapidity, and absurd ru-
mors of poisonings-rumors whose terri
BILE effect even upon the far more enlight-
ened French people, myself have had
opportunities of observing -misled the
populace of St. Petersburgh, and hur-
riej them into dangerous excesses. Fl,
nally impressed with the conviction that
the physicians procured the death Of
the sick, an excited mob, one morning,
stormed cholera hospital on the Hay
market, hunted down the physicians,
and precipitated one of them from
third floor window upon the pavement.
That was the signal for general insur.
rection; the immense Haymarket was
soon filed with dense throng, from
which issued murmurs as menacing as
the roll of distant thunder. A heavy
and threatening cloud seemed to hang
over the anxious city. Suddenly the
Emperor appeared, fresh from Moscow,
whittier he had been on account of the
cholera Seated in an open caleche,
with only Count Orloff at his side, he
drove into the square. Soon the ad-
vance of the horses was impeded, and
the shouting and tumutuous mob pressed
round the carriage
In vain did the Emperor endeavor to
appease those nearest to him; every
minute the tumult increased, and al
ready threatening words were accom-
plished by threatening gestures. The
Emperor rose to his feet, and exerting
his utmost power of voice, commanded
silence from the riotous mob, over whose
heads he lowered, like some angry DEM
igod, flashing amongst them the light
nings of his eye, and by his imposing
presence and tone stilling the uproar
and obtaining hearing. 'Wretchcs =
he exclaimed, is this the reward of all

A NOVEL MIsTAKE.-Quite an
amusing scene took place in Hanover
street last evening, a little before dark,
which was richly enjoyed by the few
who were Sc fortunate as 10 witness il.
1t seems that young man, clerk in
an embroidery store on that street,
saw his father riding past in q car
riage, and wishing to see him very
much, rushed out in pursuit of the We.
hicle In the course of his run he
accidentally struck with bis hand the
skirt of gentleman's coat. The gem
tleman thought his pocket had been
picked, and without stopping to ascer-
tain that fact, he Immediately ran after
the supposed thief at rapid rats.
The race was long and nobly contest
ed, but the clerk reached his fathers
vehicle, got in with him, and drove off
mot conscious of the fact that he
was pursued as supposed pickpock-
ct. The gentleman, baffled in his at
tempt to catch his prisoner, was about
TO depart from the spot, when he hap
pesed to put his hand into his coat
pocket, where he found his money all
safe. He made one loud exclamation
on making this discovery, and imme.
diately left amid the boisterous laughs
of the hystanders who has seen the

The Tear.

There is tear Of sweet relief,
A tear Of rapture and of grief:
The feeling heart alone can know,
What soft emotions bid it f6w.
II is when memory charms the mind,
With tender images refined:
IT'S when her magic spells restore
Departed friends, and joys no more.
There is an hour--a pensivc hour
And oh how dear its soothing power,
1t is when twilight spreads her veil,
And steals along the silent dale:
'Tis when the fading blossoms close,
And all is silence and repose:
Then memory wakes and loves to mourl
The days that never can return.

ACCIDENT TO THE STEAMER MICHIGAy-SEvEN
LIVES Unsatisfactory much CONSERVATION
was occasioncd in this city by the report that
the mammoth steamer Michigan, Capt Kelley,
had met with fearful accident during the pre-
ceding day and as it was known that several
OF our citlZcnS were aboard. anxiety was felt for
their safety, until this morning, by the arrival
of the Asia, We were unable to ascertain the
particulars of the calamity. These are about as
follows
On Wednesday, soon after the Michigan left
this port, while landing near Port Louisa,
(about fifteen miles distant) with the huge
wood-boat :. Sturgeon Bay" in tow, sudden
gust of wind carried her chmnies into the ri
ver capsizing the woOd-boat, which went I'M
der coming out on the other side. Thirty men
were on the woOd-bOat at the time. four of
whom went undcr-the balance got on board of
the steamer. The gale is described as furious
passengers on the guards of the steamer had
to cling TO anything they could lay their hands
on, to keep from blowing overheard. Three of
them either blew off in this manner or jumped
into the water during the excitement, and were
lost. They were supposed to be from Sabuia,
Iowa. After the accident, planks were arrang
ed in the cbmneys places, so as to admit of the
steamer pursuing her voyage. While the Asia
was lying at Dallas, she passed down looking
wofuiiy disfgurcd, the larboard side Of the Ca
bin being entirely demolished. A passenger on
the Asia informed us that she would require at
least $1,000 worth of repairs.
No blame can he imputed to the officers of
the Michigan-the accident was unforeseen and
unavoidable. Mr.. j. Humphrey, the owner of
the wOOd-bOat. who was present. assures us that
they deserve great praise for their bravery and
presence of mind during the excitement on the
occasion. The chimnies now lay in thirty feet
