The effect of these plots las been to undermine the Czar‘s health, if not his reason, and this to such «i extent that he would probably not have mauintained very Jong the fear‘ul straggle, oven if suddon death had not come to his relief. The Czarovitch, who succeeds his father under the title of Alexander III, is about the age of thirtyâ€"three years, of a robust the age of thirtyâ€"three years, of a robust ‘-‘ physique, and credited with being possessâ€" 8 ed of great energy and an indomitable win. | In private life he is said to be gonial and | popular with the St. Petersburg populace, but as a Russian, permeated with notions of aggrandizement, and bent on carrying out the policy of his great ancestor, Peter the Great. Of the present situation of afâ€" fuirs the London (Eng.) Daily News says: "The Czarevitch succeeds to authority more embarrassing than that which the murderâ€" wd Exmsperor received. The success of the Government in its efforts to stamp out Ni hilism has not hitherto been encouraging. What have all the military trials done? What has been accomplished by the execnâ€" tion and wholesale sending of exiles to Siâ€" beria?
