In the reign of Alexis Mikehailovich, in | 1650, its extent had already reached, 237,000; | under that of Peter the Great, 220,000; under Catherine TL, 325,000; and wider the present reign, 392,000 miles. The result is that the most considerable increase took place under Peter the Great and Catherine, The former conquered a part of Finland, the Daghestan, and some other Caucasian provinces, and the country of the Kirghises, and also annexed to the Eimpire Kamst- chatka, and seme islands in the Pacifie Ocean. The Western provinees, Courland, the rest of Finland, the Crimea, a part of Bessarabia, some other Caucasian provinces, and Georgia were subject to the sceptre of the Czarina, The country of the Amoor, au extent of 9,200 square miles, his been annexed under the present reign. The surrender of Schamyl pacified some provinces, which may consequently be considered as having been added to the Russian territory, The popula- tion of the Empire las increased in an equal pro- portion, In 1722) it was 14,000,000; in 1803 36,000,000 ; in 1829, 50,000,000 ; and at present it amounts te 65,000,000.” Zamoyski to remain at St. Petersburg; but he is not a prisoner in the strict sense of the word.

The rebels were gt least fiye thousand strong at that point, and were com- wanded hy General Gustayus W. Smith (ex- Street Commissioner.) The rebels were pretty badly ysed by our troops, who were comman- ded by Colonel S. P. Spear, of the Eleventh Pennsylyania cayalry, having lost fully two hundred killed and wounded, while our loss was only thyee in all. The attack was plan- ped by (reneral Dix, to drive back the advane- - ing picketg of the enemy, and it was intended that the cagbogts should co-operate with the Jand foyses by way of Chowan creek, from Albemarle Sourd ; hut owing to some mis- take they did not participate in the action. the document yas addressed to Hon.

The vessel was laden with sait, dates, wool, and ghee. She had alse 2% horses on board, and neither ship nor cargo, we understand, was insured. Six days before the wreck the vessel sprung a leak, which on the third day increased so much that the pumps were useless, and the salt, having melted, the ship became water-logged, and rolled so dangerously that the master determined to make fer the nearest land. He put the ship before the wind, and erewded all sail on her for two days.

Nor are the relations on the bridegroom’s side less intrieate and varied. Dom Pedro V. of Portugal, whe rejoices in a fiftecn-power name, beginning with that of Alcantara and ending with that of Amelio, is the son of the late Queen Maria de Gloria, and of a Prince of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, the first cousin of the late Prinee Consort of England.
