A strange sight, forsooth! We, on our side,
when after hot day Of battle, bravely contested
and dearly won, we found the CORY corpse Of dis
tinguished enemy on the battle field, mounted
though our blood has been by the battles rage,
and by the JOY of victory, we carried him to his
grave with all the honors we could bestow and
our stern warriors, who, moment before, faced
all the horrors Of death with smile of contempt ON
their heroic brow, marched with eyes downcast in
meditation and with solemn silence, near the bier
of the fallen foe.
And here we see community, one Of the pre-
tended acknowledgements Of Christian civilization,
carried away to baccanic gambols and pranks, by
Joy at the tidings Of the death Of man, who, had

land and all the fashionable circles, In mourning
for forty days, in spite of all the misdeeds aud
crimes Of his former career, in spite Of the blood
Of Poland and Hungary crying to high Heaven,
Murder" on his name.
The young Emperor Alexander III is not found
slow IN his revelations. In his first manifesto he
declares to take a solemn oath before God, to
maintain Russia on the highest standard Of
power and glory, and to accomplish the incessant
wishes and views Of Peter, Of Catherine, Of Alex
ander, and of Nicholas"

bent Of Mnscoyite Czarism--that's ALL
The wishes and views Of Peter, Catherine, Alex
ander, and Methodist Why, what does that means
The wishes and views of Peter, you know from his
life, and from his last will; and you know, likewise,
that he caused his own son to be murdered in
prison, estimating him incapable Of carrying out
his views. The wishes and views Of Catherine are
told in those words, "Ihis is the roadto Consta,-
tinopze." Those Of Alexander /, in the saying,
" Constantinople is the Key to my house" and
by his Tilsit negotiations Those Of Nicholas are
known from his campaign Of 1928 I; from the rea-
peated occupation Of Moldo- w allachia; from his
intervention in Hungary, 1.-THE foulest act in his

the Almighty, weighed the heaviest in the balance

and from the actual war. These are now wishes and
views which the new Emperor swears TO accom-

ExTRAoRDINARY DISCLOSURES Among the cor
respondence recently disclosed is letter from Mr..
Soule to Mr.. Marcy, making the following extra
ordinary disclosures. As Mr. Soule does not ex-
plain upon what authority he induced to credit
so singular story, he hardly expect 1t to at
tract much attention It is much more likely that
he was deceived than that so curious mission was
ever seriously contemplated by the French Gov
eminent.
oThe French Government seems to have harbor-
ed for some time the idea of sounding how far the
United States were vulnerable politically and in q
military point of view. Instructions prepared
at the Department of Foreign Affairs destined to
be placed in the hands of an agent, who was sent
to America in a disguised capacity, and to be pro-
vided with ample means to be by him applied to
fl II investigation of what causes of dsahection to
the general government might exist in the States,
and to the survey of the whole country that its re
sources and means of defence might be ascertained
and appreciated the whole with view to con-
tingencies which were considered it seems as like
ly to occur and to involve the two countries in diff
fculties.
az The tone of the instructions was quite mena-
cing and the struggle, in anticipation of which
they had been prepared, was represented as
being one ofprinciple. There could be no stable
order and government in Europe as long as the
poisonous influence Of our institutions were permit
ted to be felt on this side Of the Atlantic, &C
These instructions, duly signed were presented to
Napoleon Bonaparte, with tender ofwhat amount
Of money he might require to carry them out. The
prince took them with him, and repaired immed-
ately to the residence Of one in whose Judgment
and discretion he seems to have placed the most
a. q IL
his advice as to the course which Il was fit for him
to pursue The instructions were carefully read
Napoleon at first showed disposition TO make an
ecat as he could not but see the intention of an
insult In the proffer of such a trust (He gives
himself for Democrat.) His friend, while agree
ing with him as to the character Of his mission,
was, nevertheless against its being made the oc-
casion Of rupture between the two cousins, and
advised the sending back of the instructions with
a peremptory refusal. The prince assented; went
to his cousin and told him he was not the man for
such work that he was a Democrat and would
rather be with the United States than with him.
THE matter was dropped, and has not been re-
sumed SINCE at least to the knowledge of my In

LIBERATION OF Mr. CARDKS.--Thc English pa
pers state that Mr. Garden, whose singular attempt
to carry off Miss Arbuthnot gave his name so
much notoriety, has had RENTED portion Of the
imprisonment to which he was sentenced for the
offence, on account Of III health. The act OF grace
however, which RENTS more than half Of the sem
tence of imprisonment imposed upon Mr.. Garden,
has affixed to Il certain conditions of rather strn
gent nature, by way of affording to the law which
he has outraged the satisfaction and security con-
templated by the punishment originally assigned
to him as the expiation of his offence. He must,
before the prisongates are opened, consent TO ex-
patration to foreign land, to the full end or term
Of the confinement to which, by his sentence, be
was subjected, and further, he must give security,
himself in 100000, and two sureties of $4,000
each, TO keep the peace toward Miss Arbuthnot
for period Of ten years Mr.. Garden, agreeing
to those stpulations, win be released, and depart
for Brussels to recruit his health.
