TRAITS OF NICHOLAS T.

Some interesting memoirs of the Empe TOT Nicholas I, of Russia, have recently been put forth in Paris, by writer who was formerly page in his Majesty's ser. vice. The Emperor 1t will be recollected won for himself the detestation of hls own people and of all Europe, by his inhuman severity and despotism.
 1 have seen, says the writer, most of the | soVere1gns of Europe, and more than once have been admitted to the honor of direct conversation With them, but never have experienced the icy impression that the view of the Czar produced upon me. He walked straightforward in lordiy style, his leaden eyes coldly fixed on those of each person to whom in turn he addressed him. self, and gazing deeply into each face with a penetration that seemed to mark the very secrets of the soul His step impressed you; his aspect intimidated; and his attitudes SO truly sovereign, added to phisiogomy so naughty, reflected the guiding sentiment of hislife, his utter contempt for mankind and mystical faith in his own all-powerfuln ess. l Of colossal heighth, and admirably bea uti- full in face, his hard and penetrating eye subjugated you at once. Firmly convinced that he represented ce- lestial power on earth, sincerely persuaded ! that to his own people he was the mandate ry of God, and held within himself divine prerogative, he watched with an over-shad- owing jealousy the sacred deposit with which he believed himself charged, and any attempt against his auth ority appeared to him a sacrilege, and prove him inexor- able.
 EXECUTION OF THE POET RELIEF. The first conspirators of his reign, Pes tel, Mouravieff-Apostol,a and the poet Re- lief, were condemned to be hung. The emperor signed the decree after the Rus sian formula, 'Bgt DO siensua.'' (So be it.) They were then conducted to the place of execution. Relief. poet of the highest Just at that moment, when the exe- cutioner, having passed the slip-not over his head, had raised him on his shoulders to launch him into eternity, the too weak rope broke and he fell b ruised and bleeding.
 'They know not how to do anything in Russia, said he raising himself without even turning pale, ''not even to twist rope"
 As accidents of this kind-beside being being very rare-were always considered occasions of pardon, he sent therefore, to the Winter Palace to know the will of the emperor.
 'Ah! the cord has broken?' said Nich- olas.'
 Yes, sire'
 "Then he was almost dead? What inn presslon has such close contact with eter- n1ty, produced on the mind of the rebel?'
 He IS brave man sire.'
 The Czar frowned.
 What did he say?' asked he severely.
 Sire, he said, They know not how even to twist rope in Russia.''
 We'll replied Nicholas. let them prove to him the contrary And he went out.
