a MONG tbe names announced for the nominitiou for county treasurer, w« notice that of i hemaa Webb, of Ferry township. We thisk of all the per*ons announced there is no one more worthy of support at the hand&of the republican p tty than Ttio*. *Wsbb. He has lived lathis county,'where he now resides, ftr forty-three years; has been ■ farmer all his life, and has never asked at the hands of the party any plaoe or position whatever, other than to be and remain an earnest supporter of its principles. He enlisted •t ths age of twenty years in CpI. Jim Lana’s regiment (5th Ind ) in ths Mexican war, and served as a private soldi-r until the close of that war. When the country was in danger in 1862 he assisted in recruiting a company and entered th > war of therebellion. He waa chosen lieutenant of company G, 70th Ind. vol. isfantry, tffider General Hen. Harrison, and served his country well aud faithfully as such in that great straggle for national existence. After the dose of that war he returned to bis farm where he has ever since remained. He baa always been a stalwart republican, being la the front rank of the workers of bis party. Through the great depiession in reel estate he has b en compelled to sell his home to pay tbe obligations entered iato by him prior to the panic of 1873. He has msnfully and honestly met all his demands, though let-ing nearly all his property. Ha has maintained his integrity and honor as a maa, and there is left no stsin upon hla good name, which is of more real value than all the property any one can posies*. If Mr. Webb should be cbosen by the people of Marios county to v lid the office for wbf-h he seeks, a better and a more honest official, in our otdni.n, could not befoind, and no one would ever nave reason or occasion to regret that be had supported him for the office of county treasurer. We, a* members of the same company with Mr. W*b*> in the Mexican war, and personal friends since said time, cordially recommend him to the people of Marion couuty. W. R. Clinton, A. MoOBItOCSK, t h P. S Carson, Cr>nr'*de* of Mr. Webb In Mexican war.

St. Pktbrsbcro, March 2.—The city i* gaily decorated, and the day is being observed as a general holiday, ia honor df the twenty-fifth Anniversary of the czar’s accession. At 10 o’clock this morning vast crowds assembled before the Winter Palgce. The troops were massed in the central quadrangle of the palace and the*immediate vicinity. The czar appeared on tbe balcony of the palace for twenty minutes saluting the multitude, amid great enthusiasm. Members of the council of empire, including the chancellor, prince Gortechakoff, at half-past 11 went to the winter palace .aud presented a congratulatory address. Decrees have been published granting pardons to prisoners, remitting the arrears of taxes owing by the rural population, and awarding r rders of distinction. The Official Messenger publishes a letter from Emperor William, countersigned by Bisa&rk, congratulating the czar, in terms of warm and earnest friendship, on the twenty-fifih anniversary of bia accession, and on his escape from injury by the recent explosion in the winter palace. The emperor expresses his gratification that the friendabip. which united their fathers has been maintained, and bis confidence that it will Continue unchanged to tha end of bia life. Alexander and hla Iteijja. [Alexander Nicolaievitch ia the son of the Czar Nicholas and Alexandra Feodorovna, a sister of Kaiser William. He was born April ,28, 1818. Nicholas gave great care to the early edacation of his son, and upon the attainment of his majority, which was declared May 8, 1834, admitted the yonng man to the intricacies of the government. by allowing him to attend the sittings of the council of ministers, and see the workings of the administration. In 1846, when the father visited Italy, the vast responsibilities of the’ emnire were temporarily placed upon the shoulders of Altxander'. In the month of April, 1841, he married Maria Alexandriaa, daughter of tbe grand duke of Hesse-Darmstadt, bora in 1824. It was a clear and unmistakable love match ; but if reports are te be believed the czar and czarina have long been estranged by rt ason of a liason between the emperor and the Princess Dolgorouki, in whose apartments it is claimed by some Alexander was dallying at the time of the recent explosion in tbe dining-room of the winter palace. The czarina bas always been popular in KuaEia, and it may be welt for the closing years of Alexander’s reign if the later reports prove true, that he has sought and obtained favor with his neglected wife. The present czar assumed power in his own right March 2, 1855, at a most critical period. The Crimean war had been undertaken by Nicholas sioge-handed against allied Europe, with Austria in neutral hostility. Nicholas abdicated the throne to his son, who continued the struggle for a year, but concluded the treaty of Paris on the 30th of March, by which the territory of Russia was decidedly curtailed, and its power materially abridged. Ou the 7th of September, 1856, ihe czar was formally crowned at Moscow. He at once entered open a decidedly liberal administration of the government. The world remembers what lofty promises for . liberty were made in the opening years of Alexander’s rule, and has seen with regret how the fruits have turned to asnes by force of causes which one man set-ned powerless to control. Pius, Rome’s greatest pope ia many respects, opened his long and eventful reign most auspiciously; but the system and traditions of the hierarchy wore too strong for tbe easy-going, ease-loving pontiff, and what opened in bright promise closed in greatest failure. The most prpminent measure of reform during Alexander’s time was the abolition cf serfdom,. This was a boyish conception of his, and he carried it out despite the objections of the nobles, issuing the decree March 3, 1861, and completing the details of the plan during the ensuing two years. But a measure which should have strengthened Ms throne in reality weakened it. In pursuing the scheme he was compelled to take the land away from its noble owners and distribute it among the serfs, who, by the conditions of the empire, had neither social nor political strength and influence. They were ignorant, knew potbiofi' of goTernment,&nd were only cyphers in the empire, mere villeins, scarcely less so in their new estate than in the old. While gaining no strength in this direction, the czar lest in the alienation of the landlords and nobles, who naturally rebelled against what to them seemed useless spoliation, and an overthrow of time-honored relations between themselves and their serfs. Then followed the Polish uprisings of 1863, and a gradual cessation of reform measures which did net seem to reform, aud a return* to the iron hand of former autocrats. Socialism, the interrationale, aad what is knownas nihilism, made rapid progress, and at every advance of that destructive spirit, Alexander’s easy nature gave way more and more to to the pressure of his advisers and administrators, until bis government became indeed a terribly “strong” one, against which protests have been made in the five attempts upon the czar’s life, the first one of which was on April 16, 1866, another in 1867 at the Paris exposition, and the last one tbe late dynamite explosion in the winter nalace, preceded so shortly by the mine under the railway at Moscow. There have been hints and assertions that this festival occassion would be marked with a yet bolder effurt to rid Russia of its despot, coupled with rumors that the Nihilists would repeat on a larger scale the famous destruction of Rome in the reign of Nero. And yet the years of Alexander have worked out results in which Russia may well take pride, as they are reviewed to-day, despite the thick clouds which obscure the bright features, When Nicholas died there 6iilj ihree lines et-railroa'd in Russia; now there are forty-five, with a length of nearly 15,000 miles, and with others in progress, that will open op new trade districts in Siberia and Central Asia. During tha reign of Alexander 60,000 mileb of telegraph lines have been put in operation, many new canals Lave been constructed, the water courses have been improved, exploration has been pushed into the Caspian and Oxus districts, while Siberia bas been changed from a bleak aad terrible place of banishment to a great province, with vast mining interests which are attracting the attention of all Europe. Alexander has reigned longer than any other sovereign of the Romanoff line, except Michael, the founder of the house, whose reign extended from 1613 to 1645, a period of thirty-two years, and Alexi, his successor, who was in power thirty-one tear*. Alexander I., uncle of the present Czar, was on the throne from 1801 to 1825, and Nicholas, father of tbe Czar, reigned from 1825 to 1856. Alexander 1. died at the age of 52, Nicholas at the age of 59, and Alexander II. will be 62 in April. Ebarnuua’a Ambition Realized.
