o,.i0 w uie largest extent, and let them Do a pledge of your devotion for me and Russia. (Signed) Alexander." A postscript presents to the Guards the uniform worn by the deceased Emperor, and directs mem to retain on their accoutrements the initials of Nicholas. The manifesto concludes: "May the sacred triemory of Nicholas survive in our ranks as a . - . I CI".. terror to the loe, the glory 01 nussia." , The manifesto is considered warlike. Various reports are in circulation purporting to be the last words of the Emperor Nicholas. According to the English accounts, Nicholas, when addressing Alexander, advised him to make peace even at the loss of Russian influence in the Black Sea that he, Nicholas, would take the responsibili ty, as he had not believed in the possibility of the Anglo-irench Alliance, and that Alexander s constant effort should be to detach France from England, and unite Russia with Austria and Prussia. Nicholas then added that perhaps his pride had been excessive, and that God had humbled him therefor. The above, however, is probably manufactured for the English market. Russian accounts say that Nicholas passed the last hours of his life in the consolations of reli gion. Having bid adieu to all the members of his family, individually he said to the Empress, "Tell your brother, Fritz King of Prussia, to adhere to Russia, and never forget his father's policy." He then took leave of Counts Orlorff, Dolgorodki, and Arienburg, also of some of the favorite grenadiers of the household and personal attendants. All except his family having retired, he asked the Empress to repeat the Lord's prayer. At the words, "Thy will be doue on earth as it is in Heaven," Nicholas responded fervently, "Always," "Always," "Always." Soon afterwards lie added, "I hope God will open for me his arms." He then became partially insensible for two hours ; at noon he said something about a message to a dear friend not named, and something of Alexander and the garrison of Sevastopol. A few minutes afterward he drew a deep sigh, and expired. The body was exposed, face uncovered, in the Chapel Ardente, until the 16th of March, when it was buried with the usual Imperial solemnities. . Important Cabinet Council The El Dorado Affair Important Naval Movements. ' ' ' Washington, March 30. The great affair, just now, in this city, is the El Dorado outrage. There is no little excitement here, growing out of that insult, which, by the way, has been increased by that to Thompson, the American Consul at Sagua la Grande. There was another cabinet council yesterday, at which our relations with Cuba were fullv discusssed. The members of the Cabinet in favor of immediate and energetic steps against Cuba, were: The President, Secretary Guthrie, Secretary Davis, Secretary Campbell, Secretary Dobbin, Secretary McClelland, . Against any decided movement for the present, were Secretary Marcy, Attorney General Cushing. Secretary Davis was in tavor of the most decided action to compel an immediate apology from the Captain-General. I am told that Davis is very violent, and urges the strongest measures for reparation. Orders have been sent to Pensacola, Norfolk, Philadelphia, New York, and Boston, to have all available vessels and material prepared for immediate service, and instructions have been issued to all naval officers at those points to hold themselves in readiness for sea. It is thought that a portion of the Mediterranean fleet, as well as the Brazil squadron, will be called home for the emergency. Washington, March 30, 10 P. M. Preparations for War Energetic Measures Contemplated. Another consultation with his Cabinet has determined the President to draw from the different stations every vessel which can possibly be spared, and order them forthwith to joirWlo Gulf squadron. A large portion of the lateV'uvy appropriations will be expended in providing steamers, ostensibly to transport provisions, but really to transport men and ' military stores to our Southern coast. A decided step is to be taken, and the consequences left to take care of themselves. War is the only theme discussed on the streets to-day. An extra session of Congress is regarded as impracticable, as only three of the Southern Stales could be represented. President Pierce will adopt Mr. Polk's plan, and consider a state of war existing. I am happy in being able to assure you that the policy now resolved upon by the government, has the Cabinet with it as a unit in sentiment, and that sentiment adopts immediate action for the recent insult which our flag has been made to suffer under, and orders to obtain redress have been forwarded to those who will too gladly see them carried into execution. One vastly important feature, brought about by the recent transactions in and about Cuba, reflecting upon our national reputation is, that whilst the government will not encourage filibustering, it will not,, for the future, find it incumbent upon her to listen to the various reports of schemes on foot for invasion. PROCEEDINGS OF THE CITY COUNCIL. 1 Monday, April 2, 1855. Council met. All the members present. The civil engineer reported that 11 lamp posts had been erected on Pennsylvania street during the month of March, according to the city ordinance for erecting gas posts. Building bridges across Pogue's run, on Noble street, and across the canal on Georgia and Vermont streets, were awarded to Mr. Williamson. The Treasurer's monthly report, with the accompanying vouchers, was presented and ren the Mayor and CIerk for examination. Ihe Captain of the watch reported 57 arrests for the month of March. The Mayor.reported that there had been 69 cases tried before him in March. He received cash $88,00; and the balance was replevied and settled by mitimus. Mr. Gowen, from a select committee, reported in favor of erecting an addition to the Western Liberties Fire Company's building. The engineer was directed to advertise for bidders. Bills and accounts were allowed to the amount of $225,95. The property holders on Market fstreet, between New Jersey and east streets, petitioned to have the street graded and graveled and the sidewalks graded and paved. The petition was referred to the engineer, to examine and if correct advertise. Messrs. McCord & Weekly petitioned for privilege to move their frame shop back to the vacant lot on Market street, where it had stood, and from where it was removed. On motion, the petition was referred to the judiciary committee with instructions to report by ordinance or otherwise. ' The Treasurer presented a bill for $158 ad

vanced to erect lamp posts on Washington street, between Illinois and Tennessee streets, and for which the property holders refused to pay. On motion, the bill was allowed. On motion, the Attorney was directed to commence suit against the property holders for the above amount. An ordinance to permit the Evansvillc Railroad to cross certain streets and alleys in entering the city was lost by a vote of 6 for to 7 against. On motion of Mr. Pitts, the Council appointed Judges and Inspectors for the approaching election. Mr. Maguire presented an ordinance to repeal the gas ordinance, and to annul all responsibility for gas from the passage of the ordinance, which was read twice, and on motion the Council adjourned until next Monday evening. JtST The man that erected the house on the sidewalk of the post office corner, has become very indignant at us, the Journal, and Dispatch, because of our notice a few weeks since. On Thursday afternoon he delivered quite an eloquent address in front of our office, denouncing us in unmeasured terms, and appealing to the popular prejudice and mob spirit to be sustained in his "little business," which, he says, has been broken up. If this man has a right, as he contends, to occupy the public sidewalk, he can maintain them legally if he has no right, there is no justice in his public appeal against those who have only the good order and beauty of our city at heart. If he has the right, others have, and if all are permitted, where will it end? Men that pay rent for stores and places to do business in will be superseded and interfered with by sidewalk merchants, and our sidewalks will be one unbroken line of huxter stands. It is not against this man, or any other man, that our notice applied particularly, nor to excite "a spirit of incendiaryism," but against the principle of permanently occupying the public sidewalk, with a permanent business, and we suppose this is the case with the Journal and Dispatch. Our ordinances and our people have always been in favor of keeping the sidewalks clear and unobstructed their width and beauty have been the admiration and subject of remark of strangers from all parts of the Union, and it was to preserve this our remarks were made. The Council should now settle this matter by ordinance, and if one has a right, all should have, and their limits and restrictions should be provided. If they have no right, then let all be prohibited. In this case, we understand both the owner of the building and renter of it are opposed to this stand being located there but that is nothing, they are but individuals, and must give way to the public good. What is the use of being an American citizen, if you can't have unrestricted liberty? jtSTThe Secretary of State, Erasmus B. Collins, publishes a communication in the Republican, giving the objectional features of the new State Bank Law, and the reasons he is opposed to it. In conclusion he says

"But it is needless for me to go on and enu merate my objections, for in my opinion it has not one redeeming section; and in relation to my having it published with the other laws of the session, I shall be governed by the expression of public opinion, and not by those interested in it, nor by those that expect to bank under it." This is rathes a new position for a Secretary of State to assume, to attempt to defeat the action and will of the Legislature; and did we not be lieve this State Bank, created by the act referred to, would be the greatest curse ever forced on our people, we would think his course highly censurable. As it is, if there is any legal way to prevent this law from taking effect until the people can become aware of its provisions, and send men to a coming Legislature to represent their views, we believe the man or officer that can do it will immortalize his name. City Election. Meetings have been called in the various wards to nominate candidates for the city offices, by those opposed to the Know Nothing ticket. We are sorry to see this we were' in hopes that politics would be kept out of the city election, and that all would vote for the best men for the common good. The National politics have nothing to do with the election of our city officers we are more interested in them, and the election of good men is more for our immediate interest than any other election, as citizens and property holders, that we have, and we were in hopes that it ould be conducted, as heretofore, without the interference of party.

My Dear " Spirit" The "Moral" to the sleighing story, in your paper of March 3rd, brought to my mind an incident which occurred to myself in my young days, and if you will forgive an old maid's persiness, I'll relate it to you. It was in the month of December no matter how many years ago that a merry party of us started from the little village of M to attend a dinner in the neighboring town of B , a distance of about six miles. We reached there in safety, and enjoyed the ball amazingly, to say nothing of the supper, which was got up in real New England style. Those were the good old days of "Egg-nog" and mulled wine," and before the introduction of Maine Laws and spirit rappings ; but most of our gentlemen were devout believers in spiritual influences, and were very amusing in their "spiritual manifestations," so that it was long after midnight before we thought of returning home ; but finally the horses were ordered, and by the time that we were en-

sconsed in our. numerous cloaks, shawls, and hoods, muffs, tippets, Sse., the sleigh was at the door ; we were snugly tucked in, and packed away among the sleigh robes. The more the merrier and the closer the better, and off we started, the gentlemen trying to sing "We won't go home till morning!" I was on the back seat, between" two of these musical gentlemen, and was more amused than delighted by their vocal efforts. In a fuw moments the entertainment ceased, and nothing disturbed the quiet stillness of the night but the musical ring of our own sleigh bells, and I had just sunk into a revery, when I was aroused by feeling a hand glide gently into my muff W I wasn't prudish, and he was an old friend, so I kept quiet for a few moments ;

presently I felt a movement on the other side, and a hand stole in from that quarter! Oh thinks I, this is a little too much of a good thing, and I genllv withdrew my hands, one after another, and" allowed them to clasp each other's hands most lovingly 1 The simple fellows never discovered their mistake, and I sat by almost dying to laugh at the affectionate glances which I received, first on one side and then on the other, and I fancied them accompanied by a most expressive pressure of the hand! At last I could stand it no longer, and burst into a long merry peal of laughter. This perfectly astonished my companions, and tlmsH on the forward seats eagerly asked, "what's the joke?" but I did not want to make the affair public, so I told them I was only laughing to hear the sound of mv own voice ; but to the many earnest questions of my neighbors to the right and left, I quietly replied : "Why the truth is gentlemen, that as the night is remaiKauie eum, and I'm rather delicate, I should like my muff, as soon as you are done using it!" I held up both mv hands, and the truth burst upon them instantaneously. Not a word was spoken, but the muff was speedily vacated, and 1 was lett in undisputed possession of it for the remainder of the ride. That joke probably cost me a husband, but if 1 should remain an old mam mi my aying uay i should never regret it, for that laugh was worth a dozen husbands. The gentlemen are both living, and should they chance to read your sleighing story, will echo most feelingly the motto, "Be sure you know whose hand you hold, before you squeeze it!" Yours truly, S. J. Le. y. Y. Spirit of the Times. jC27The earnings of the Indianapolis and Cincinnati Railroad, for the month of March, are, Passengers, $15,713 06 Freight 16,113 58 Express and Mail,.... 1,148 48 .
