CyThe present Emperor Nicholas, sometime
since, driving along in his droshka, observed an
English gentleman move down another street, APP
parently, as he thought, to avoid him. lie sent
an officer to inquire why nc had done so when the
Emperor was coming. The answer was, that he
did not sec his Imperial Majesty. "Then desire
him to wear spectaclcs in futurc,' was the i'm
mediate command; with which the delinquent
was forced to comply during the remainder Of his
residence in st. Petersburg, much ID lis own an
noyance and the amusement of his friends, for he
was remarkably wcll-looking man and piqued

A MORMON IN LIMBo.-Bill Smith, the Mormon
prophet, and brother of Joe Smith, the renowned
founder of the Mormon Church, which is becoming
noted, we might say throughout the civilized
worlds now closely confined in jail at this
place. lie being indicted, gave bail for his ap-
pcarancc at the last Circuit Court, butt having got
some prcsentiment--and We think it would hard

some dsarrangcmcnt in the Mormon underground
railroad, or the adroitness of the person in pur-
suit, he was brought to a halt in St. Louis, and
marched back to Dixon.-DirOn Tel.
