The public thanks are due to Gov. CLARK for
not having allowed himself to be tempted from his
post of duty by the seductions of that public froc
which has drawn to this City so many members
of the State Government. The Governor was
invited with the rest, but very properly declined
the honor We could wish the members of the
Legislature had done the same-not only for their
own credit, but for the credit of the City. No
valuable information can be gathered during .
jovial excursion amid the disspations of metrOp-
oils like this, nor are such scenes a. that Of Tues
day. at leland, calculated to strengthen
the Legislative mind for its arduous labors at
Albany. We trust this may be the last Of these
annual Bacchanalian scrapes, and are very happy
to record the fact, that oven 80 much as by accom-
panying the boisterous party to New York, Gov.
Clark has not lent the sanction of bis presence to
the revels Of these big boys out of school.

The Courier AID Enquirer should mend his
knowledge of history, and then support the
Allies. He ssys-"I If Prussia decides to brave
{" the hostility of Western Europe, 1t will be
lucky for her il she gets through the year with
out something worse than Leipsic." We were
always under the impression that Leipsic wss
the memorable field of triumph for the Allies,
and defeat for the French, and that jena was
where Prussia was defeated.
But the military savsnt Of The Courier has
changed all that. Leipsic, henceforth, is to be
the Waterloo of the Prussians-thst is, If Water
loo was place of defeat for one Of the parties,
Is usually believed. Perhaps, however, Water
loo was French triumph, on the same principle
that Lepsic WAS

One of the most disastrous accidents of our long,
black American list, has justoccurred in Mere
dith, N. H., a. We mentioned on Wednesday, by
the giving way of the floor of the town hall, thus
precipisating to a depth of eighteen feet, some
three hundred people. About I've of the wounded,
we learn, have since died; others are expected to
die, and about one hundred have broken bones.
In view of this fact, America, great, glorious
and free, should remember that she 10 the great

French manage these things better. People
cannot build in French towns as they
choose. A Board of Architects in civic pay and
power, takes note Of every house, public and
private, large and small, which is to be erected;
and the capabilities of the edifce for security to
the ends proposed, as well as general immunity
against fire, are canvsssed. and put right il want
ing. In this country, however, people build
pretty much as they choose and even the reckless
practice extends to public edfces, as We perceive
by the catastrophe of tho Town Hall in question.
The CONGREGATIONS In our cities, too, are all I'M
necessary. Build houses properly and they will
not burn. They do not burn in Paris, where
humanity is corsetted into the narrowest spa,e,
houses being towers in hight with families
sweltering in forced proximity.
When the moral flth Of this community, not

of not only having laws, but of executing them;

The Africa brings news of the death of the
Emperor Nicholas. He now belongs wholly to
hstory-be stands before posterity. His accounts
with the present are closed.
With the arrival of European newspapers and
correspondence, details will throw light on this
sudden event. At present only suppositiOns can
be made. Already it is intimated that his death
was due to palace conspiracy. For the present,
we have not the slightest reason to admit the
probability Of such thing, albeit not uncommon
in the domestic annals Of the Romsnofs. Since
the beginning Of the war, the English press often
suggested, that with the progress of the war; dis
satisfied mobiles, msgnates, and courtiers would
initiate the tragedy Of his father, Paul But as
we have several times stated, In relation to the
prosecution of the war, Nicholas was the most
pesceably Opposed man Of the whole court.

others, all belong, to use comprehensive term,

respective ambitious, and they are well aware
that new reign brings forward new men, crowd
ing out the old ones. They could have had no
earthly interest in shortening the days of Nicholas,
and until further explanations come, we shall not
believe in conspiracy. Nicholas, We doubt not,
came to bis end in . natural way.
OF strong and irasciole temper, and power
fnl, but infan natory, physical constitution,
Nicholas was subject to attacks Of violent pleu-
risy and infammations of the liver, which more
than once threatened his life. Oflste years. in.

We learn from The Tampa Peniasrlar Of the ID
inst. that the Government steamer Texas Ranger
has been expected at that port for more than two
weeks past transporting munitions OF war Tor Fort
Myers, in Florida. Her non-arrlvai has created
much uneasines. and conjecture that she has met
with serious accident somewhere between Tampa and
New. Orleans. The psinful apprehension inrudes
itself upon the minds Of some that her inaaumsble
cargo of powder &c has isned, and that the shock
experienced on the a7th inst, and generally sccred
tied to an earthquake. was mono other than the report
Of the explosion of the supposed il-fsted steamer
