The Asia arrived at Halifax at 9 o'clock on Thursday night. The manifesto issued by tbe Emperor of Russia, is of an inspirating character, referring to the endeavor of his father to improve the condition of his troops, and declaring his adherence to his father's plans, in this respect to the largest extent. The manifesto concludes thus: "May the sacred memory of Nicholas surviv in our ranks a terror to the foe. ai'd for the glory of Russia." Various rumors and statements as to the last moments of Nicholas are circulated; among them are, that he advised Alexander to make peace, even at the sacrifice of Russian influence in the Black Sea, as Nicholas had not believed in the Anglo-French Alliance. This is regarded as doubtful.

The Vienna Conference formally met on the 15th of March. There were prosenl one French, two English, two Austrian and two Turkish Representatives. The discussion on the general basis of ne Iowa. th newly elected Senator of that thriving young Suite will accept our thanks for a copy of the Report oftbe Experimental At this point the man broke, fnd they after him. He jumped a picket fence, and entered a dwelling-bouse, wont up stairs, and hid himse'l in a wardrobe.

They searched the house a long time before he was found. I tried to leason with some, persuading them to give it up and let him go. Hut they were so excited. I did not know but they would lynch me, if I said much moro. I went up town, and soon the mob rame back, making all sorts of hideous noises, with their prisoner on a rail, carried by negroes.

The Sheriff drew bis pistol, and would have-shot him if we had not interfered. After getting i.i town they had a negro black the prisoner's face. Some said "put in vioegar and nitrate of silver," etc. After blacking him, he was sold at auction. How much he brought I can't tell, as I did not heRr the bids, but heard them crying him off while I was at tea.

Tho mob took him to a drinking saloon, and had the niggers bugging nnd kissing him. He bore it like a martyr. Thoy said they would kill him if he resisted. A search warrant was procured to search his baggage, to see if he had any Abolition documents, and all that was found any way suspicious were threo copies of the New-York Tritune. While at the drinking saloon, they indulged quite freely, and some got more than they could bear.

An Fxcei.i.ekt Invention- Mr. Edward Campbell, of Columbus, Ohio, has made application for a patent for an invention tha' we regard as ot very great utility and impor tance.

It is a process of making a bond of union betwtoen cast iron at a very high temperature and glass in a state of fusion. The purpose to which Mr. Campbell has applied this invention, and with which it is associa ted in his claim, is that of making of glass the interior nt the boxes in winch tho axles of the wheels of carriages and machinery are to revolve. The advantages of glass for this purpose have been long understood, but we believe a means of applying it has not heretofore been known. It retains a smooth surface, and wears but little by friction, and greater accuracy can therefore be preserved; it requires but little lubrication, as its temperature is not materially increased by the friction that would render any of the metal? intensely hot; it is economical, costing even less than cast iron: and from all these causes, it is a safer reliance than other agencies.

The test to which the specimen which we have seen has been subjected, at once con vinced us that glasn thus imbedded in iron could sustain extraordinary pressure and the most powerlul blows. Mr. Campbell affirms that he can nt once proceed to the manufacture ot these boxes, of all sizes. lrom the fourth ot an inch to twenty inches in diameter. They will no doubt be promptly brought into use for' all kinds of machinery and carriages; but it is upon tho railroad that their advantages will be most highly appreciated, for it is there that hu man life most depends upon the accuracy ana reliability ot every part ot the structure in which we journey at such furious National Int.

P. O. Examination Day. It mars the interest of the exhibition, and is a serious detriment lo tho pupil who cannot fail to be profited by the stimulus of a public exhibition We are sorry that composition writing is not more perseveringly urged upon the pupils of the High School. It is of great importance to them; and a rigid training in an exercise so well calculated to awaken thought and develop intellectual pow er, should be ro' garded as indispensable in the High School-First of all, intellectual culture should be so directed as to give to the student the babit of expressing thought correctly, with the tongue and the pen.

High School Exhibition. The exhibition at Gotbio Hall, on Friday evening Isst, given by the Pupils of the High School called out a crowd. The entertainment, well deserved the name; and enlisted close attention throughout. It was a good deal of an undertaking for those so inexperienced in dramntic exhibitions, to attempt to render the popular Comedy It is but seldom that any other than the best stock companies of the cities, attempt to perform it. It is, no mean praise to say that the piece was most creditably rendered, and received with every evidence of satisfaction.

1 he leading performers exhibited a correct conception of the charactersthey represented: and recited their parts almost unaided by the prompter. The 6elect Declamations were generally given with good tnste by the young Ladies; and the music was quite as attractive as any feature of the entertainment. The Prologue was quite happily conceived and rendered. The illness of Mies unfortunately deprived the audience of the Epilogue. The Temperance levee At Union Hall, on Thursday evening, was as much of a jam as the President's Levees usually are; and the best spirit prevailed.

The Ladies were there in their strength. It was gratifying to see such an exhibition of the Temprance feeling of community. With such backing as that meeting seemed disposed ti afford, our Municipal authorities need not fear to execute tho Temperance Law cf the State against any and all offenders. The eleven Distinguished Lecturers, proved to be old acquaintances (most of them) in the Temperance movements of Akron, but their labors were received with no less pleas, ure on that account.

There iru nite a stiring time at the election on Monday last, the vote being considerably larger than is ordinarily polled at the spring election. Party lines were in a'great measure unfortunately, the distinct Temperance Law and Order issue, was not fairly niade by the People's meeting, held at Union Hall, on Saturday evening.

The friends of the Traffic took advantage of this fact, and by waiting till after the nominations were made at Union Hall, and then sprinkling in some good men through their ticket, they were enabled to elect several who occupy such dubious positioison the Temperance Issue, as to leave little hope of correct and decided action this year. Perhaps our fears are groundless, but wo fear the worst in this regard. A useful lesson, however, has been gained. A large majority of the voters of the Town and Township, are right on this question, aud if the issue is fully and fairly made, the result can-not be doubted. Those who managed the cards, in selecting a ticket in opposition to that nominated nt Union Hall, in order to conceal their purposes, put up a good corporation ticket, but for the Township; which they hoped to carry they selected a ticket almost exclusively of Administration; anti-temperance men.

Several of the candidates for corporation offices wore on both tickets: which will explain 4 ho largo rote some of them received. A good board ot Trustees lor the Town was seleoted; 4 out of 5 of those elected being on the publicly nominated ticket.

The attendance at theFe examinations, was not as general as wo hoped to eo but eo far as we have been able to ascertain, tho results were in most cases, highly gratifying to those who attended. The discipline of the Schools is, generally, good in some cases all that could be asked, reflecting the highest credit upon the Teachers.

The rod seems to be in a great measure banished but a substitute much more acceptable, bas been found in the improved "School training of 4he present day. Among the Primary Schools which have been deemed worthy ot special commendation, are those taught by Miss Bernard, Miss Otis and Miss MeAlpine. Perhaps others were equally deserving of credit; but of those specified we can speak from personal knowledge. In the examination of tho several classes of the High School, there was evidence of a thoroughness of training, not often witnessed in publio schools. The elasses would, we thiak.

under any circumstances, acquit themselves creditably in the branches they jav'iave pursued. The babit of skimming over the surface of text-books, and leaving the cholar unimpressed with the principle taught and the practical application of tho rales committed, is one of the most pernicious that characterizes our Educational In-' dilutions. It is desirable to have the student progress, and to have the conviction that he progressing, thoroughly impressed up- on his mind, as an incenthe to study, a stimulant to the ambition but, it is better tb at few books bo mastered, and they thoroughly mastered, than that a vast number should bo swallowed, with their contents so antirely undigested as to leave the pupil unable to make a practical use of bis Educa--i tion. The Teachers of the High School are, we tbink, deeply imbued with this conviction and have acted upon it in their labors. It is thought by some, that the scholars have not been pushed to that vigorous exercise of their faculties, which a healthy progress re quired.

If this be so, the remedy is readily applied; and a hint, we are sure, is all the Board of Teachers require. The elasses of Mr. and Mrs. Cooper, Miss Pryne and Miss Gilbert all acquitted them selves with credit to themselves and their Instructors. Those of Mr.

Simmons and Mis Loomis, labored nnder the disadvantage of baring been but recently plaesd under gotiations terminated satisfactorily, and the Russian Representatives accepted verbally the interpretation of the allies. Rumors are afloat that Kngland and Aus- trirv would be content with the demolition of Sevastopol. Napoleon absolutely insists on that condition. Prussia refuses to accede to the treaty with the allies, and will not therefore be admitted to' participate in the conference. The latest dates from Sevastopol are to the 8th inst.

The allies had re-opened their fire upon the town with sood effect. The weather was cooler and the health of the troops improving. Further particulars of the'storming of the two Russian Redoubts by the French, show that they were taken and blown up by the French, being untenable. The French loss was 100 killed mid 300 wounded. The Russians were fortifjing the volley of Inkermim, An official French despatch says that the soige works are proceeding with great rapidity.

The reported death of the Grand Duke Michael was falsi. He and his brother had left the Crimea for St. Peiersburg. Meoschikoff had gone to Moscow. Gen.

Ostcnsacken was in command within Sevastopol, and Gen. Lutlers at Odessa. The Roeback committee was continuing its investigations with the war, collecting evidence of tbe worst mismanagement. Parliamentary proceedings unimportant. Tbe Emperor Napoleon's visit to the Crimea is as doubtful as ever, The charge against Gen.

Forry of intriguing with the Prussians at Sevastopol is denied by the Ministry; but Foray is recalled. TEH AUANnCS HEWS. Tho Journal des JJebats says: The Emperor Nicholas lias not died suddenly: ho had boen ill for twelve days before. We have before us letters forom St. Petersburg of the 19th which state that the Emperor kept bis bed by order of his first physician, M.

Mandt. The Empress was also ill, and confined to her bed; and as the apartments occupied by the Emperor and Empress are situated one on the ground floor and the other on the first floor of the palace, they lad no direct communication, and did nut see each other. The Emppror, however, must have called the Empress to him. as we know trom ine telegraphic dispatch, that before his death he had assembled round him all the members of his family present nt St. Petersburg, in order to give them his blessing.

Our correspondents attribute the illness of Emperor to cold. Notwithstanding severity of the weather, he continued his usual occupations; he was desirous of seeing everything himself, and in the most minute details; he visited the soldiers in their barracks; he passed long and frequent reviews, forgetting the precautions which his age requited in such a climate and in such a severe season. To all ihe observations made to him by his children and by his most devout servants, he replied that he had something else to do besides ta king care of his He had, however, attended to it for more than a year past, and at times felt uneasiness. He said that hj had reached, and even exceeded the number of years which God had allowed to others of his race, and that his end was not far distant. Ho hadtieated himself according to his own ideas; he had insisted on his physician putting him on a regimen which would prevent his getting corpulent, of which be had a singular dread.

It is ftiid ho had nn attack of apoplexy, or of paralysis of tbe lungs. This is a thing which Dr. Mandt had not anticipated, for at that time he felt no alarm, and his language was most satisfactory. He was, moreover, subject to attacks of the gout, and at the commencement of his illnea he had felt some symptoms of it. The Seseiged and Besiegers-Sevastopol.

The allies have resumed firing upon the town. The letters of March 1st, explain the discrepency between the French and Russian accounts of the storming of the redoubts, on the night of Fflb. 23. Both accounts were correct. The French did storm and capture two Russian re doubts, but, finding tliem not tenable, trom the murderous fire from tbe walled batteries of their enemies, they blew up the redoubts and retired with the loss of 100 killed, and 300 wounded- February 27.

Grf.kxsdoro, Sunday, March 18, '51. There was a disgraceful mob here on Saturday; tho 17th. I was attracted by a crowd on the principal street. On drawing near. I saw a young man of about 22 years standing in the midst of the crowd.

They were asking his nnmo wlncn it appeared he declined giving. I intuited of a bystander what tho excitement was. lie informed me the young mr.n "had declared himself an Abolitionist, and it not agreeing with the sentiments of tho people, they had a notion to mob Mini" lie was told to leave the place, but he declined. Some said, "Hang "Tar and feather him!" Ride him on a Others, more moderate, proposed to send him from town. All were in favor of his leaving: and those that were Iha least excited advised him to leave.

He was asked where bo was from; he answered, "Massachusetts." I saw him leave the crowd, and go to the hotel. Soon he came nut and walked past the crowd.gning in the direction of tho depot. The leader of the mob, who (I was told) was the 'Sheriff, swore he should not leave the town, and went in chase of him, followed by several others. Not knowing what they might do. I concludvd to follow, and if I could be of any sorvice to render it, he appearing to be a stranger as well as eiyself.

On my way I passed some young ladies students of the female College, ihey inquired what was the matter. I answered, "They say thero is an Abolitionist in tswn." Some exclaimed, "Tar and feather him!" others, "Reid him on a mil!" I passed nn, and found him in front of a minister's dwelling. As soon as I arrived, I told the leader 1 wished to speak with him a moment. He said, "if it was about that man, he would not hear it." factory hand, and, 1 should judge, a very poor one, who never owned a negro, and more, never will, if one may judge from hisragged appearance. Tho cars left at 11 o'clock in the evening, and he was put on board nnd sent to Augusta.

A rontleman. a resident of Chicago, nnd well known to many citizens of Detroit, who has been employed for some years past, by tho bite Emperor Nicholas, in tho enpacitv of practical eagineer, nnd superintendent of machinery, and who lias recently returnea from Russia, states that it has been the sub ject cf common conversation at St. Peters burg, that tho Lite Emperor Nicholas and the then hereditary Prince Alexander were at entire variance upon tho question of the war and its policy, and frequent collisions of opinion were rumored to nave occurred.

In addition to what is publicly and gene-rallv known in relation to the personal char acter and qualities ot the new Emperor, this gentleman states that he knows, from tbe best of all metins of acquiring knowledge up on the subject bis own eyes that the Em peror Alexander is a confirmed and hopeless drunkard, and that ho has for some years past yielded himself up to the control of this habit. It is not improbable that Ihe habits of tlio present Emperor, not than his political opinions, contributed to the estrangement which existed between lather and son.

We should lay before our readers a complete report cf the case, but cannot devote the space necessary to give anything like a full synoposis of the trial. Ihe proof of the death of Miss Lcet, by Strychnine, was incontestable, nnd no doubt sould be tclt that Air. Homer M. Leet was suffering under the effects of the poison in August last.

It was proved that the pris oner Rollin A. Leet purchased Strychnine just previous to the time ot tbe commence ment of the peculiar spasmodic symptoms in the case of his father, and that he had the noison in bis possession from time to time nearly to the ooried of his sister's death. A misunderstanding wu.n ins iaiuer, growing out of bis attention to the young woman whom he has married since the examination beforo the magistrate, was also shown and some threats which he bad made in conse quence. Trumbull Whig, ss Death of Mr- Eogers fram Hydrophobia-From an acquaintance of tho deceased, we learn tho following particulars relating to the death of Mr. A.

Rodgers, who died of Hydrophobia, at Franklin, xs announced in our paper of yesterday morning: About thirty years ago, Mr. Rodgers was bitten by a mod dog, and was placed in utter darkness under medical treatment for a space of thirty days, and apparently recovered from the effects of the bite; though at irregular intervals, since that time he has felt unpleasant and peculiar sensations, supposed to be caused by the virus which in an insignificant degree remained in his system. Otherwise he enjoyed remarkably health, and being a man of powerful physical frame, weighing nearly two hundred pounds, it is probable that tho strength of his constitution kept the effects of the virus in his system subdued. It was on the loth day of last January that he received the last bite, under tbe following A small half starved bad be' about the house during tho day, and Mr. R.

told one of tho children to call it in and ft id it, which was done. ftfr. R. stooped down to caress it when it bit him in the hand. He instantly grasped his hand and remarked that he never felt such a pain.

It seemed to thrill his systom like an electrio shock. Nothing further, however occurred at that time beyond a very severe headache nnd a slight nervous fever. The same dog was known to have bitten several hogs, but not until the hogs became rabid, which was several weeks after, was the dog supposed to have been mad. When Mr. Rodgers became acquainted with theso facts he at once felt that, under his peculnr situation with the virUB of a former bite in bis syFtem, his case was a hopeless one, nnd immediately set abifut closing up his business, an mado his will, communicating his apprehensions to no person, not even his family.

Ho enjoyed usual health up to the Wednesday before his death, when the symptoms of hydrophobia began to manifest themselves, causing him, however, no very serious inconvenience until Friday morning, when on attempting to wash his hands and face he found himself unable to get his hands into the water. He ate but little breakfast and in a short time -wont to bed. About 12 o'clock on Friday night he was seized by a most fearful spasm which lasted for some time. After the spasm passed off he became quite calm and conversed almost inoeenanMy, and assured his friends that he would not harm them in any way. His next spasm was on Saturday morning, and more violent than tbe former.

The last spasm seemed to rack the sufferer with the most excruciating agony nnd was dreadful in the utreme, even to witness. During all his sufferings to the vcrv moment cf his death he was conscious of his condition. perfectly rational in nil respects, and seemed to take particular care to harm no one during his raving fits, although bo was in no way secured. and in the came room with his friends and attendants. It is certainly contrary to usual experience that the virus should remain so long in tbe system nnd give no morn decided manifesta tions of Us presence.

But the case though a remarkable one. is bv no means an insobtttd one. Dayton Gas. 27A. Pre-1'avment op Postage.

The following insfructions in regard to prepayment under the new law, were commu nicated to the P. M. at New York by as sistant P. M. Gen.

King, in answer to spe cial inquiries, To meet the contingency in the first rule, there is wisdom in the suggestion that has been made, that business houses should use envelopes with the style of their house prin'ed ou them, so that in case of forgelfulness in payment, the let ters might be returned through their deliv ery box. The regulations which follow are in conformity to instructions from Ihe P. II General: 1. The set of 3d March, 1855, making no provision for unpaid letters to places within the United Stales, on the same day or day following any such unpaid letfer letters being put into a Post Office, the Post Master thereof will post up conspicuously in his office, a list of (he same, sla ting that they arebeld for postage. If not attended to, such letters must be be return ed monthly to the Dead Letfer Office..
