At the close there was a better feeling. The news from the seat of war contains nothing of importance. The Emperor Kitholas of Russia is dead; he expired suddenly at one o'clock on Friday morning, the 2d of March instant. Surmises were afloat that he was assassinated; hut it is thought he died of apoplexy, alter an attack of influenza. His disease was known in England before the nows of his death arrived,, and also the fact that his physicians had given him. up. The effect which the event produced on political affairs, was not known of course, when the Africa sailed, as the news only reached London the evening prerioos. Tlio expectations of peace were stronger in England. Tie Peace Conference was to open at Vienna on the 5th inst. Prussia seemed more in favor of the Allies.

The Cotton mirket at Liverpool -wis dull during the ten diyi previous to lie sailing of tie steamer, with only * limited demand, and prices of >11 kinds Lad declined fully Id. with a strong desite on the pail of holders to real* ite. The sales in the aggregate reached 61000 bales, of which exporters took only one thousand and speculators two thousand. The market for Breadstuff* was dull, and prices of alt kinds lower. Flour had declined 6d per bbl.; Wheat 4d per bushel, and Coro Is per quarter, with an unnsual limited busines.

The insurgent a hold Canton, and thej had the whole command of the river, their fleet, having gained several victories over the Imperial fleet, and, consequently, sapplies were cut off, and all kinds of provisions, especially rice, were rising rapidly. A light took at Whampoa anchorage, in presence of the American and English ships-of-war, and several of the foreign ships were damaged by the gnus of the bcligerents. The English and American Commissioners had drawn a line around the factories and notified bolt parties that no hoslil) ides will be permutt's to take place within it.

Death o( the Emperor Nicholas. The Dews of the decease of the Czar comes through channels, and with such corroborating evidence ot its truth, as to cany genera! conviction of its truthful* ness. Russia—a modern empire, so called—has made gigantic strides in its march of civilization. A sketch of its progress is thus set forth by the NewYork Times:

Another charge bad taken in the British Cabinet. Gladstone, Herbert and Graham had resigned, because Rockwell's motion to appoint a committee to enquire into the management of the war waa carried. The celebrated Joseph Hume is dead.

Bates from Shanghai to the first of January say that a difficulty had occurred between the insurgents and the authorities at Shanghai and the French, whereupon the French Admiral, with two vessels, bombarded the city, which no doubt, had to eventually surrendered or was taken by storm. The insurgents had met 1 with some reverses cast of Pekin

lb was under Peter I, that from an Asiatic Russia became a European state. Before unknown to diplomatists, she was then first recognized as an element in the arrangement of the affairs of Europe. Ikfo u trading mainly inland, with Asia and Chino, she then began to build ships and engage in commerce. In 1721, by the treaty of Neustadt, she strips Sweden of an immense territory on the eastern shores of the Baltic. By the tripple convention df St. Petersburg, of 1772, she gained Lithnma as her share of the plunder of Poland. By that gigantic political crime, deliberately consummated by a second and third partition, -Russia, Austria and Prussia, gave the lie to their former protestations of faith in the principle of the: balance of power, shamelessness to rapacity, appealed to that principle, which they then overthrew, in bodly asserting that the partition was politically just, because the, division was equally made. The sophistry of the excuse is equaled only by the atrocity of the. deed; The peace of Fredericksham followed the Swedish revolution of1809, and Sweden was then again impoverished and degraded in rank by the cession to the Huscovite power of Finland and the Island of Aland.

The Vienna peace conference was to be opened in a few days. Alt patties expressed a strong desire for peace. U bad been officially announced from the Crimea that on the Tib of February, the Russians 60,000 strong under Gen. Lapardi, with seventy guns, attacked the Turkish force at Bnpatmia, under the command of Omet Pasha. After a battle of four hours the Russians had to retreat, leaving upon the field folly 2,COO killedand wounded. The affairs before .‘Sevastopol remain unchanged. . ;

TUK VERY LATEST, London, Friday jnight, March 2, This evening, in "the House,of Lords, the Earl of Clarendon rose and said: 'T think U my duly to communicate to your Lordships the contents of a. telegraphic dispatch 11 received half an honr since, from Her Majesty's Minister at the Hague, that the Emperor Nicholas died tins morning, aloii*- o'clock, ofpulraonic apoplexy, after an attack of influenza. 1 have also received n dispatch from Her Majesty's Minister at Berlin, stating that the Emperor of Russia died at twelve o’clock this morning. . An hour before this last dispatch arrived, I received accounts from Lord John Russel, stating that the Emperor Nicholas was at the point of death, ami had taken leave of Ids family' Although the event occurred, such a short time ago as between twelve and one o’clock this morning, there can be no doubt, under the circumstances, of its au- . thenlicity.” ‘ in the House of Commons Lord Palmerston madea simitar statement.

Additional News by the Pacific. : New York, March 14. . The general impression in England was that the Palmerston Cabinet had fallen to pieces, and could not be remodeled permanently. It <a stated that tuC passage of Mr.- Roebuck's measure was only the ostensible cause ot the resignation of Graham, Gladstone and Herbert, and that the real cause was private squab*, ties in the Cabinet. It wa* also believed that Roebuck’s party would not rest satisfied until It had impeached Lord Raglan, and bue or two otheis, ex-Ministers. Lord Palmerston had experienced great trouble itt patching up the Cabinet, and it was not fully completed; and Russel) only .takes the Colonial Secretaryship to istop'tbe gap, bnt'will complete his mission in the Vienna* Conference. :

Tnrning from the North, we find the Czars panning the same rapacious policy, and with the some success, in' the South —the Ottoman Empire in every successive war humiliated and weakened, and stripped of a portion of her territory—the independent tribes of the South and West from time to time subdued and incorporated into the Russian Empire/ and the contest for freedom maintained, only among the Gancasian mountains. From Peter I. to Catherine IT., in the short space of seventy-three years, a vast territory,, containing an aggregate of ten million of people, was incorporated into the Russian Empire.

The members of the guverrynent express strong hopes that the negotiations at Vienna wilt lead to, peace, although all Europe ts preparing: for war. It was reported that Russia had declared war against Sardinia. Tuscany had joined the ’Western powers, but it seems Naples has not.

Tim-, in England, when your boots get out of repair you can have them renovated fer a few shillings,' Here the bootmakers will not mend, so that the practice is to wear the boots as long as you car, and then throw them away. Even if you could get them mended, tire cost would be more than that of a new pair; and this is more or less the case with every article of lionfthnhl or personal utility.. A tin tea-kettle of English make costs less than solder ing a hole in the old one. .This doubles tire cun-ump-non of tin tea-kettles, and the strteincnt might be indefinitely extended. There is another very conspicuous feature in the trade here, which will tend to knock down rents and knock up the small tenant shopkeepers. The great difference between the wholesale am! retail price of consumable articles- induces people to establish a store-room, whereas formerly they lived from band to month. I must again give an illustration:. London bottled porter can be had at about 13s. per dozen in cases of four dozen; send to your grocer aud be charges 24s., or at least 20s. The trohsequenee )*• ihsi families are beginning in purchase ;tea, sugar, coffee, rice, win*, beer. etcX wholesale.

England is not possessed, with a vam and causeless fear respecting her Empire over the East, when she beholds Russia making these gigantic strides towards Persia and India. She knows full well that the howling wilderness of Afghanistan and Beloocbtstan proved no insurmountable barrier to the ambition of Alexander the Great and his army, who starting from through Persia and India in triumph, and. paused only on the banks of the Ganges, where his breathless troops refused further to follow their powcr-intoxieaied leader.—Ambition is the same passion, and man has the same capabilities to-day that he had then. And although the ambition of Nicholas may not be of os noble a nature as that of this ancient conqueror, it is no Jess persistent, insatiable and vast. He is not ignorant of the career of those of the ancients whom he would rival, nor of the encouragement to invasion which India offers, from the oppression and extortions of the East India Company, attuned for in part by the stability of its inle under the patronage of tho British government. . *

A convention between Great .Britain and the Sublime Porte, for the enlistment of a Turkish contingent, has been signed. An intciesting debate arose in Pail lament upon the .’question of going into committee on the army estimates. • Lord Palmerston contended that the sufferings of the army in the Crimea arose I from physical causes, beyond human control, and that the. sufferings were noi confined to the British army, inasmuch: as the sick and wounded, ofthe Russians reached thirty-five thousand.

In | an article on the recent town elections, remarks that “it should not be forgoltoa in estimating either the triumphs or the. occasional defeats of this youthful and vigorous party, that it has to fight its way against the combined opposition of all others. In the Fall elections old par* ty ties preserved much of their force, and although the American vote was large enongh to treats surprise, it was but little more than one-fourth of the aggregate vote of the State. While UUman’a vote approached Clark's and Seymour’s it was inferior to either, and when to theirs combined, we add the vole given to Bronson, it will be seen that in the Fall election Ullman’s vote was less than a third, in fact, but little more than a fourth of all that were polled. In the recent elections all these parlies have, in many towns, acted in combination against the Know-Nothings, andthe maimer in which they have swept a great portion of the State, in defiance of this united opposition, affords gratifying evidence of their growth.” ___ • - - - - - —* -*-*-*-**A*****^

1 jfetr BonpsBlre Election*, I | The popular voice uttereati overwhelming rebuke of the measures of tho present Administration; for not one of its candiv dates is elected. Balts Metcalf, Kuow ;Nothing, is chosen Governor. Messrs.! Pike, Tims, and Ctuour, Know Nothing and Anti-Nebraska, are elected to Congress. In the Legislators, the returns so far, show Know Nothings 97, Democrats 17, Whigs 2. The election of two Know Nothing U. S. Senators is certain. The vote for Concord is for Baker, 774; Metcalf, K. N., 1064; Bell 120; scattering 53. ' The Know Nothing representatives are chosen in Concord, with the assistance of the Whigs and Free Boilers. Last year the vote in Concord stood. Baker, Dem.939; Bell, Whig, 594; Perkins, Free Boil, 263. Baker's majority over all, 83.

The above returns show something of a change, considering that Concord waa the head quarters of the old line leaders, and who were determined to carry the town whether or no. All that could be done to defeat young Sam, was done. Money, party corruption, influences in high places, and thundering mandates from Washington, endeavored to frown down and crush the independence of the Granite State. The New Hampshire Patriot, the organ of the Pierce dynasty, is printed in Concord, and its columns have ever teemed with the lowest abuse and vilest invective of the American Party, and all who have ever dared to act as freemen. Every effort, as we have said, was made to carry Concord. Lying, vituperations, abuse, and slander was resorted to. — Money was lavishly spent, and any number of Irish were naturalized, for the purpose of carrying Concord. H re it was, too, where nearly one hundred names were published as having withdrawn from the Know Nothings, lor the purpose of voting the old line ticket. What was the result?. It can be found in the returns qudled above.. Manchester gives Baker 671, Metcalf: 1,915, and sends 14 Know Nothing Rep- ] resentatives. Last year it gave Baker i 828; Bell 1070; Free Soil, 403—quite a j change. ■
