Arrival of the Pacific and the Africa. 
The Pacific arrived at New York March 14th, 
and the Africa at Halifax the next day. News 
by these two steamers is fourteen days later 
than by previous advices, a longer interval 
than has elapsed since the establishment of 
the two lines. The Pacific did not leave Liver¬ 
pool until two or three days after her time, 
which was the reason of the hiatus. The news 
is of the most important and startling char¬ 
acter. 
The Emperor of Russia is dead. He expired 
suddenly at 1 o’clock on the morning of Fri¬ 
day, the 21st, and the event created the great 
est excitement. No details have been received, 
but there can be no doubt of the fact, as it was 
announced in the House of Lords on Friday, by 
Lord Clarendon, and in the Commons by Lord 
Palmerston. Surmises are afloat that he was 
assassinated, but it is thought he died of apo 
plexy, after an attack of influenza. His ill¬ 
ness was known in England before the news of 
his death, and caused a slight rise in funds.— 
The effect of his death, of course, had not 
transpired. 
The following is the latest from London, 
dated Friday evening before the Africa sailed : 
In the House of Lords, the Earl of Clarendon 
rose and said : “I think it my duty to com¬ 
municate to your Lordships the contents of a 
telegraphic dispatch which I received half an 
hour since, from her Majesty’s minister at the 
Hague; that the Emperor Nicholas died this 
morning at 1 o’clock, of pulmonic apoplexy, 
after an attack of influenza. I have also re¬ 
ceived a dispatch from Her Majesty’s minister 
at Berlin, stating that the Emperor of Russia 
died at 12 o’clock this morning. An hour be¬ 
fore this dispatch arrived, I received accounts 
from Lord John Russell, at Berlin, stating that 
the Emperor was on the point of death, and 
he had already taken leave of his family. 
Although this event occurred so short a time 
ago, as between 12and 1 o’clock this morning, 
there can be no doubt, under these circum¬ 
stances, of its authenticity.” 
In the House of Commons, Lord Palmerston 
made a similar statement. 
The Palmerston Ministry had fallen to pieces 
—Lords Graham, Gladstone and Herbert hav¬ 
ing resigned, ostensibly on account of the 
passage of Mr. Roebuck’s motion for a com¬ 
mittee to inquire into the mismanagement of 
the War. Private squabbles in the Cabinet 
are believed to have been the real cause. Ru¬ 
mor says the Roebuck party will not rest sat¬ 
isfied without the impeachment of Lord Rag¬ 
lan and one or more of the ex-ministers. Pal¬ 
merston has much trouble in re-constructing 
his Cabinet. Lord John Russell takes the 
Colonial Secretaryship, as a stop gap, but 
completes his mission to Vienna. 
Rumor gives Lord Elgin a seat in the Cabi¬ 
net as a member of the Board of Con tori. The 
Earl of Castile is to be Viceroy to Poland. 
The new Chancellor to the Exchequer is Mr. 
Loomis, an untried man. Members of the 
government express confident hopes that the 
pending negotiation will lead to an honorable 
peace, although war measures continue all 
over Europe. 
The poor in Europe are in a deplorable con¬ 
dition. Many thousand laborers have been 
for weeks without food, except the supplies 
from charity. A riot of two or three days du¬ 
ration occurred in Liverpool and London.— 
Some disturbance occurred among the unem¬ 
ployed in other places, and much distress ex¬ 
isted. At the sailing of the Pacific a change 
for the better had taken place. A sudden 
thaw had set in, and business had decidedly 
improved. 
At Sevastopol affairs had undergone no 
change whatever. A couple of sorties had 
taken place, entailing slight losses on the 
French. The battle of Eupatoria is confirmed, 
and the result is precisely as before stated. 
The Pacific’s news contained a rumor that 
Louis Napoleon intended to visit the Crimea 
in person ; but the news by the Africa, four 
days later, states that he was at the camp of 
St. Omer, and nothing further was said as to 
his intended visit to the Crimea. 
China. -^Later intelligence from China rep¬ 
resent the Insurgents at Canton, which place 
they held in a state of seige. The Insurgent 
authorities and the French at Shanghae were 
in difficulty, and tire French Admiral had 
bombarded the town, the result of which was 
not known.

Arrival of the Illinois. 
A correspondent in Mt. Airy, N. C., states 
that there is a family in Surry county, in that 
State, of the name of Snow, three members of 
which own the baptismal name of Ice, Hail, 
and Frost. 
There are living in the small village of Le- 
toyn, Essex, England, four persons of the name 
of John Swan, not at all related, and all with 
wooden legs, although not one has been in the 
army or navy. 
The late President of Magdalen College, Ox¬ 
ford, who died recently, in the 100th year of 
his age, has left by his will his library, com¬ 
prehending twenty thousand volumes, to the 
University of Durham. 
In Cuba, the practice in vogue in respect to 
interments, is not to have the coffin buried 
with the body, so that one coffin may be used 
for hundreds of funerals. In rural villages 
there is a public coffin, as we have in our vil¬ 
lages a public hearse. 
The annual steamboat commerce of the Great 
West is estimated as follows :—Eight hundred 
steamboats, of nearly two hundred thousand 
tons, traversing thirty thousand miles of coast, 
and moving a commerce valued at three hun¬ 
dred and thirty millions of dollars. 
The Halifax Chroniclesays the Railway Com¬ 
missioners in Halifax, will require between two 
and three thousand laborers to work upon the 
railroad on the opening of spring. The entire 
road from Windsor is to be located, let out and 
finished without the least delay. Fifty miles 
of the road will be finished during the present 
year, the outlay on which will be £250,000. 
The steamship Illinois, from Aspinwall via 
Norfolk, arrived at New York March 12, with 
San Francisco dates to the 16th instant, and 
$1,160,000 in specie on freight, and 300 pas¬ 
sengers. She sailed from Aspinwall on the 
2d, and passed several Spanish vessels-of-war 
off the coast of Cuba. 
TnK Isthmus. —The dates from Panama and 
Aspinwall are to March 2d. The health of 
the Isthmus is remarkably good. The cars 
pass over the Panama Railroad, from ocean 
to ocean, in four hours. The Panama Star of 
the 27th, says the passenger tax has been at 
length disowned by the general government, 
and the Attorney General has pronounced the 
whole ordinance in relation thereto illegal. 
There was a rumor at Aspinwall that an at¬ 
tempt had been made to seize a quantity of 
ammunition on the river above Del Norte, by 
a party under the orders of the U. S. Consul 
there. The natives having charge of the am¬ 
munition repulsed the attacking party, and it 
is reported that one of the latter was injured 
by the matchlocks of the former. 
Our dates from California are to Feb. 17, 
one week later than by previous advices. The 
Senatorial question is yet undecided. The 
50th ballot had been taken, and resulted in 
no choice. Several important bills have been 
introduced into the Legislature. One of these 
is to exclude from the mines all persons who 
are not eligible to citizenship. Anew political 
party is talked of. The avowed object of this 
party seems to be to obtain a larger delegation 
from the Pacific States in Congress. Oregon 
and Washington must be organized into States 
at once. California must be divided, and two 
States made out of her territory. The Sand¬ 
wich Islands must be annexed, and so must 
Sonora, and as much more of the territory of 
Mexico as can be conveniently conquered, pur¬ 
chased or stolen. 
Workmen have broke ground on the Sacra¬ 
mento Railroad. The Indian disturbances in 
the North still continue. The ship John 
Land, of Boston, heretofore missing, has been 
heard from at one of the Marquesas Islands, 
leaking badly. 
From Washington territory, we learn that 
Gov. Stevens has made several treaties with 
the Indians of that territory, and was proceed¬ 
ing toward Shoal Water Bay for similar pur¬ 
poses. 
The U. S. sloop-of-war St. Mary’s arrived 
at San Francisco on the 10th inst., from Hono¬ 
lulu, bringing papers to the 27th ult. The 
new king has directed his ministry to break off 
the negotiation for annexation to the United 
States.

The tendency of prices still continues upward in the 
grain market. Genosee wheat to-day is worth $2,380 
$2,44 and Canadian is quick at $2,25. Corn has also ad¬ 
vanced and is now selling at sevon shillings. 
Butter is scarce and high; the provision dealers paying 
readily 20 to 23 cents for first quality. Other tilings re¬ 
main about at previous quotations. 
In regard to wool the New York Shipping list of a late 
date, says: 
There is more inquiry this week, particularly for Amer¬ 
ican, and the stock is now somewhat reduced. Tho salos 
have been at 23c for No. 1 pulied; 28c supor; 31X032c 
extra, casn. The greater proportion of the sales have 
been of the finer grades. The market for fine fleoco is 
nearly bare, and holders are anticipating better prices.— 
Wo notice sales of %(a))4 blood Merino at 30032c; there 
is very littlo of this description in first hands. We notice 
the prevalence of a better feeling for nearly all kinds, and 
tho market is more buoyant than for some months. 
Tho money market is easy and the specie movements 
considerable, with balances somewhat against us. The 
Illinois arrived at New York on the 12th from Aspinwall, 
having on board $1,160,000 in gold, and the Canada car¬ 
ried out on tho 17th $1,267,000.
