THE NEW CzAR.-It is an old custom
in Russia, that, after a new Gar has
mounted the throne, he should visit and
inspect the archives of the Empire, in
form himself carefully of the ukases of
his predecessors, and either ratify or
modify or repeal them. On April 18th
the present Emperor went through tbs
ceremony. He is understood on this
occasion to have met with ukase of his
fathers, dating as far back as 1841, to
the effect, that, in consideration of the
good feeling shown by the Poles, and
their complete affection for the throne
of Russia, they should in future enjoy
equal rights with other nationalities in
the Empire, and be admitted to share in
the advantages of the Imperial good
will, "with the exception, however, Of
the Jews" The young Emperor is
stated to have looked very grave at this
exception, and to have said, "Such an
exceptional state shall not exist any lon
ger in Russia. This matter shall be al
tered; desire that every body in the
whole great Empire of Russia shall have
equal rights and equal duties"

The Spanish Minister at Paris has

The King of Prussia is recovering.
Advices from Marseilles say that the

about the matter of wages, and that two
manufacturers had been assassinated in
Barcelona, The National Guard had
refused to march, and the Captain Gen.
eral had shut himself up in citadel
with sfew faithful troops, and sent me-
diators to the insurgents, who received
them with shouts of ViUe Esp0rtsrOi-
Advices from Madrid, by telegraph, to
the 5th, state that the insurgents still
held Barcelona. A Carlist leader had
been defeated at Prfgnan. The Paris
correspondent of the Times confirms the
statement of the conference between the
Spanish Minister and Napoleon, and the
latter's assurance that any attempt to
dethrone Isabella should be prevented.

or dinary scene Of confnsion-ths con-

several carriages which were bold
enough to venture were hooted, snd the
horses frightened by the mob. Several

ces compel ed to use their slaves in a

We had another row on Sunday in
Hyde Park. Suspecting there would
be one, proceeded there to witness the
proceedings. There were some so. .00o
or 100000 persons assembled, includ-
ing all classes. ladies, children, &c.. but
very few carriages. The carriages
were received with yelIs and Kisses, and
the most riotous of the yehers were seiz-
ed by the police. An attempt at res
cue Of one Of the prisoners was nsde.-
The police assembled in considerable
force and kept the drive clear. In two
or three instances they were compelled
to use their truncheons. A scuf1e with
some lifeguardsmen, who sided with the
crowd, was the most serious part Of the
business. Lord Robert Grosyenor has
Withdrawn his bill, and so the matter
will end.
The best part of the joke is that Lord

DEATH OF LORD RAGLAN.
NEW YoRK, July is.

DEATH Or LOhD aAdLAhs
NEW YoRK, July is.
The steamship Arago arrived at San
dy Hook at noon, from Havre, with
dates to the 4th inst.
The news of Lord Raglad's death
was received from Gen. Simpson on the
3Oth. Somedayspreyiously Lord Rag
Ian had been suffering from indisposi-
ton, but until P. NJ. on the 2Sth, his
disease progressed to the satisfaction of
bis medical attendant. Afterwards
alarming symptoms developed them
selves, attended with difficulty of breath
ing. which gradually increased. At 8
O'Clock P. M. he was unconscious
From this period he gradually sunk un-
til 25 minutes before 8, at which time
he died.
It's stated that Major General Simp-
SON had succeeded Lord Raglan pro
TEN. -
Admiral Seymour, who was wounded
on board the ship Plymouth, (query-
Exmouth?) by the bursting of an infer
nal machine, is still suffering, and little
hope was entertained of saving his eye
sight.
The extraordinary session of the
French Legislative Assembly was open
ed on the Cd inst. by the Emperor. In
his speech he said the conferences lately
held at Vienna, failed to secure a re-
turn of peace. He came before them to
make new appeal to their patriotism,
and justified the conduct of the Allies
in the conferences, and demonstrated
their moderation. He relied on the Lee
gislative body to give him means to con-
tinue the war. Hehsd formerly resolv-
ed to place himself in the midst of the
army, but serious questions abroad and
important questions at home, had fore
ed him to abandon his intentions. No
extraordinary levy would be necessary.
Let all, putting their confidence in God,
persevere and they would arrive at a
peace worthy the alliance. The Paris
correspondent of the News, states that
the French Government demanded a
new loan of $50 millions of francs.
1t proposes an impost of Is 10d on
produce, and in the revenue.
In both Houses of Parliament, on the
evening of the Sd, royal message re-
commencing the House to provide some
material token of recognition to Lord
Raglan for the services he had rendered
to his country during this and previous
wars, was brought under consideration,
and it was agreed that an annuity of one
thousand pounds per year should be
granted to the widow of his late Lord
ship, and two thousand pounds per year
to the present possessor of the title.
In the House of Lords, the Earl oI
Galloway blamed the Government fol
having allowed certain charges adduced
against Lord Raglan in Parliament and
elsewhere to pass unanswered.

died Sitting IN her chair, without either
a struggle or groan. Indeed she was
supposed to be asleep, when it was

A LONE JoURNEY.-An ACCOMPLISHED
gentleman of fine scientific attainments,
arrived here last week, en- route by Gov.
Stevens survey, to Fort Union on the
Missouri river, 719 miles from this
place. He makes the journey solitary
and alone. We know not whether to
be most astonished or amused at his
recital of the singular mode he had
adopted for performing the trip. He
took no supplies whatever with him, but
relies on his gun for subsistence through
the route. His entire outfit consists of
gun, ammunition, blank books, pen,
paper, and scientific instruments. He
travels on foot, and draws his meagre
outfit in small hand-cart, with his own
hand. In this unique mode of travel
ling, he believed he could better ac-
quaint himself with the topography of
the country, the soil. and its geological
characteristics, than, were he accom-
panied, as is usually the case in such ex-
peditions, by retinue as conapogno'as
du voyage.
Undisturbed and untrammeled, he
proposes by himself to make a thorough
examination of this interesting region of
country, transferring to his books as he
proceeds in minutie, the result of his
observations. The enterprise is worthy
of Audubon in his palmy days, when
he traversed the wild haunts of Texas,
rejoicing in the songs of birds, his dear
est companions. We were charmed
with the courage and enthusiasm of the
man. He is yet young man, but evi-
IDENTIFY belongs to that class of scholars
whose enthusiasm for the acquisition of
natural science and new information,
inspires them with the courage to en-
counter every difficulty and brave every
danger.
In these mercenary times we meet
with few such, and when we do we can
not but look upon them as adventurous
spirits of lofty impulses, divinely com
missioned for the purpose of adding,
through toll and danger, to the fund of
human knowledge, and thence to the
aggregate of human happiness.
At any rate, but few have the resolu-
ton to venture so far. But having
crossed the river just opposite town, and
drawn his little cart fairly upon the
spot from which Gov. Stevens commenc-
ed his survey, he bid us hearty good
bye, and started off with light heart.
Over the bluff, away over the prairie,
he was soon out of sight.
Altogether it was an interesting oc-
currence. The man polished in manner
and mind-the object of the journey
the mode in which it was to be made
it being over the famous railroad sur
vey, starting at point precisely oppo-
site town-all made the occasion one of
more than ordinary interest. We learn
ed little of our friends history. He
was, apart from education, well fitted
for the enterprise he has so courageous
ly undertaken. He has lived with the
Indian, and with him hunted the buffa-
10, and traversed the prairie; and al
ways happy, whether in the midst of the
plain, at the foot of the moss-grown oak
in the forest, or on the bank of the brook
and river.-iSauk Rapids Frontierman.
