ussiau Emancipation.

According to the Tribune the news from
Russia throws gloomy shade upon the hopes
hitherto evoked by the career of Alexander II.
Con. Rostofzoff, the friend of the Czar, the
soul Of the scheme for thu emancipation Of
the peasautry, and the President of the Com
mitiee charged with carrying out that great
measure, died some time ago. This event pro-
dueed a great excitement in g.. Petsrs6ug
and all over Russia. The courtiers, as they
do always and everyWhere, hailed the disappear
sncs Of an obnoxious, honest, independent
mind from the circle most nearly surrounding
their master The enemies OF Emancipation
drew their breath more freely as the man o.
clear convictions and strong VIII brsathed bis
last. The friends of Emancipation were stag
qered at the blow, but they found consolation
in the idea that the movement WAS far adyane-
ed. and that the Car would fill the vacancy
with some other man as devoted and enligbt-
ened as the deceased. But the powers of
darkness, the fatal tra5itionaTY influences OF
the Court, made 50 pFems effort and succeed
ed. Count Panln, an old, stiff, proud, narrow
minded, impedous, despotic, conc6ited olgarch,
in the fullest sense OF the VOID, and an ssari
cious owner Of 900 seffs, ID named as the
successor of the lamented RostofzOf Tie
eapital and the nation were thunderstTuck.-
Even the opponents of Emancipation had not
expected 80 much. The moderate OhgaFchs
| had wished to see the Presidency given to
Count Sergus StrogOnof, kind Of en'ighten.
ed liberal, honest tOFy-In admirer of the
English Constituiion-above all, of the House
Of Lords, and, Of late, intruSted with the tn
torship of the son and heir Of tbs Imperial
Crown.
But the end is NOT yet. We predict with
the utmost confidence that neither Alexander
| IL. nor his German and oligarchic friends and
advisers will prove able TO arrest the great
movement of emancipation and reform. On
the contrary, they run the risk Of being crushed
| by It. There is more than one Pugatshsh
| among the serfs; tbs memory Of that famous
Russian Spartacus has not been oblterated.-
Recently, while travelling in little Russia and
in the South, Alexander was repeatedly ad'
monished by the peasantry, who gathered IN
thousands around him, to hurry forward the
work Of emancipation. The pO Aers of dark
ness and Of slavery had better not exult too
soon. If Alexander II. deSists from his former
noble course, the Russian people will GOotinsIe
liz Only then the seemingly Insignificant va
POrs Of discomfort may expand into bloody
tempest, and purifying aurora Of FIRE rise
upon the horizon Of Russia.

A brief history Of parties in Rhode Island

on the ground that the Sergeant alarms has no

Of the ground taken by SanbOrn, the refractory
