to tariff and frontier traffic.
From the Tro'ns0er 1idende, Norwegian paper,
we learn that various travellers who have just
turned thither from Archaugel report the Russians
there to be extremely active in their preparations
for another visit from the allies in this year. There
are no less than six large frigates now being built
there, and twenty screw steam gunboats ; all the
sshiR.bsuiiding yards and landing places are being
tifcatiops are being doubled in their extent and
Importance. Every species OF workman, more
particularly oarpenters-,in fact, anybody who can
handle an axe-is in the greatest request. Since
October ., when the allies gave up the blockade
of Archangel between three hundred and four
hundred vessels with full freights, have entered that
port. Advices from Chrstiania state that while we
In the south have been enduring such severe cold,

Fastening to or from Archangel, and keeping the
White Sea in o most unwOnted state Of surprise at
The activity Of the traffic. These unusual naviga-
tors 1t appears are not merely Norwegians, Swedes
or Danes, but also Russians, who have managed to-
get round there from an immense distance. On the
9TH OF December there arrived in Ham nerfest six
Russian schooners in search of cargo for their gov
kernment.

Although the result NJ See pack had in view in his
visit to st. Petersburg is in good way of being
realised, some details respecting this diplomatists
interview with the Emperor Alexander will not per-
haps be uninteresting.
M. Seebach was extremely intimate with the EN-
peror Nicholas, and the Emperor Alexander wit
messed, when very young, the friendship which his
father maintained with that statesman. The latter
was received at the palace Immediately after his
arrival at st. Petersburg which city he had not visit
ed for many years. On seeing him, the Emperor
exclaimed, " What grave events have passed since
into his visiter's arms. His Majesty some time
showed much emotion, and spoke of his father, his
childhood, and of the camer times when he had
known N. Seebach.
In speaking of his father, tears ran down his
cheeks But recovering himself, with a dignity
truly imperial, he observed, But we have to speak
