- EMI . ThE EXILE TO SIBERIA. A TRUE EVENT. t7/031 TEE Tan 'SiOBSING POST BY C. F. GANDERS. There is nothing more picturesque than, a-re view held at St. Petersburg, beneath the balcony of the marble palace, on the square of the Admi rality. The brake like complexion of the sol diers, the immobility .of. their features; the almost automaton like 'precision of the'executed motions, and finally, the;variety of their Costumes:. the Telt ercassians in oriental uniform, the horse guard, 'with la ilver: curiasses,-on which glitters a golden sun tbe dambian etissacks, with long spears, then, the Emperor dominating the whole by , his prominent figure and proud appearance, surround ed by a staff; consisting of. the most eminent men of the empire;: All this. presents an aspect which the pen can but imperfectly describe. This military.festivity is renewed - every year at I!itersburg, on. Easter Monday. It took plape also in 184., and Would have presented nothing remark able, had not the Emperor,during the whole of z the parade, been accompanied by an old man, of _ . melancholy appearance, who wore a white coat, with red stripes, trowsers of yellow,leather, shoes ' with buckles, and a -triangle hat, with a white pinme. This' costume, originating from the time of'Catharine IL, excited general attention, and resulted in a thousand different:conjectures. , The ' truth however was soon known, and, we will give our readers, in a few Words, the remarkable history of the old man. Potemkin was the most original and happiest man of the century. He was a non conamitisioned • officer in the regiment of the life guard, and had • the good luck to be noticed by the Empretiii which he had served with his sword at the time of the revolution, during which Peter 111. fell. He was handsome, daring and enterprising, and in becom ing her favorite, humbled himself beforethis pow erful woman. Nothing is more odd than the life of this man. The Prince de Ligne sketches the following picture of him : At Oczitcow, laaw a commander who appears to he inactive, although constantly engaged . ; whose only writing desk, are his knees; who places him= self near the fire of the batteries, in order to give his commands; he is a distinguished politician and statesman; more fond of making presents than to pay his debts; he is richovithout possessing a sou ; - he converses about Theology with his generals; and about war with the Archbishops ; he wants -everything like a child, and conducts himself like a - great man." . . It is particularly remarked. that until the las' days of his HR., he maintained the prominent po eition, for which fate and casuality had 'selected . him. Be, never feigned virtues which he did not possess. Without reserve, despotic and ambitious, he took his place at. the very threshold of the throne, as if he had a claim to this place of honor. By his liberality the Treasury became impover ished; be seized the inheritance of Biren,in Coot land ; extended his:power towards Poland ; aimed at the Orient; ; and governed eighteen years by the terror which he caused. Then, wearisome of •renown, and feeling an aversion against everything he died on the high road; in the vigor of 'manhood without a friend to deplore his death,* Potemkin never loved Catharine; nor was he .loved by her for a long time. United more by in. tellect than by tendernessohey were mutually faithless. Potemkin, favored by fortune, spoiled by a debauched life and the indulgence of the court ladies, had beecome a sceptic, and believed only in transient enjoyments. A Polish lady triedto con vest him to love. Beautiful, coquettish, witty and full of capricious humour, was The Princess 'Turn. owsky, at that time--the goddess of fashion ; the queen . of all the Russian salons. She,inspired the favotite of the Empress with ardent love, and seemed to be sensible of it herself. But when Potemkin believed her conquered, the Princess ap - peered suddenly altered, and became indifferent towards him. It was noticed that this change had taken place with her, since the burning of the great theatre, on which occasion she had almost lost her life, had it not been for theberoic Efforts of a young major, who - attracted by the cries of the Princess, had _carried her from the box, surrounded by flames. Poternkin, in tdespair about his misfortune, meditated for the cause; and since -that event,the Princess was carefully watched by spies.." By an apparently 'insignificant circurintance, the mystery was soon dissolved. On the Bth of March, 1774, the Empress, attired in the national costume, which she wore with. so Much coquettry, the Princess Tuntowsky and the Count - Potemkin, stood before a bow window of ' the 'hermitage, in order to see the garde du corps, and the friar regiments from Precobajinsky defiling by. When the second battallion of these excellent warriors appeared on the bridge of Twist, the 4. Princess leaned fotward, apparently looking for sinnebody ; whereupon, either intentionally or by accident, she dropped one of her gloves. A young officer, who was directing his looks toward the palace, saw the glove dropping, and without etep ping out of the, line; catched -.it on the point of his 'sword, pressed it to hik lips, and then concealed it beneath "his dress,- The Princess blushed. Potemkin bowed to wards her. ,‘ That officer has enriched himself with one of your gloves," said he, in a hollow voice . ; "for whom shall the other be?" " For you, Count, if you are gallant enough to value such a trifle," "Please give it to me." And Potemkin retired. On the evening of the same day, a rifleman and ;'two Cossacks entered at the house of Major Tch, egeloivsk.y, Galernai street. The officer grew pale at their sight; for such - visits seldom indicate sotnetfaing good. oroltow us,' said the rifleman. I t Whither? .,, ~ t •That's a secret." On 'whose order? • "Look:bete." • ' Let me take a bag with rabies and some pa. Iter. lll 4! l g . "' "PI - either rubies nor paperer, nor nOthing." "Be it so," stdd the majoy,Pale by internal erno, tions; "'hot irant Me, at least, to embrace for the last time, my dear mother, who sleeps in the next room :far mercy's sake, only one minute," Another version about the origin of the grandeur Potemkin, is the following: One morning. Catharine ',tieing attired by one of her-gentlewomen, she was surprised, by her dolefiil appearance, and inquired for theAsuse of:her silence. •Tho. young .lady de. lived; bat at she confessed to the Fimpress, that her brother, an taper in the regiment of the life ... guard, had, in a fit of despair, cut' one of his eyes out, lox not having succeeded to be noticed by . the P.Mpress, hoplog that. she would observe, him now. At &al Catharine laughed, and then she - asked the y oun g lady l ce la lour brother handsome VI 4 c The handsomest officer or his regiment." " Then I 'de , sire to ne e hi n p:- The next day he was secretly in troduced tolhe Empress, when'he pictured his love towards her with so much elovence, that Catharine tendered him her hand for kissing, with the remark, •t Orloff has fallen into disgrace." WEE Impossible ; " ".lbeorders, aris - most positive* get in; " and the intrepid rifleman pointed:to-on& of those smell carriages, callt4telegas, Alch have, " but . one Wooden seat, restingorkhigla-whiels.s, ,, t A n y attempt of resistance would have Veit useless, and been punished with the utmost §e verity. The major seated himself in this misera ble carriage; drawn by two horses from ukrainc, which, strong like steel, and as quick as lightning , had soon passed Vasili, Ostroff; leaving the cupalo of the citadel fir behind tbern. The snow came down in dense flakes, and involved the silent tray eters; For* moment, the major thought of da -1 king his companion should he, fall asleep, but the rifleman did not close his eyes. They passed Pochezerskoy. The mayor in quired if they had arrived. "Not yet," replied he rifleman. The horses were changed and the journey cot Afteady had they passed Vystarka and Pouners. koy; and at each relay the major inquired if they had arrived at the place of their destination ; but the reply was, " Not yet." When they came through the forests of Wologsa, the tdega.was followed by a troop of hungry wolris, lor nearly fifty miles. The rifleman did not seem to notice them; for it is not uncommon in those parts that travelers are devoured by , fee rocious beasts, or die with the cold. or are buried aligeiteneath the snow. Such are the perils to which the traveler is exposed. _Nothing besides can be More melancholy, than the incessant con, tinuation of these plains covered with snow, whose desolate monotony. is now and then interrupted by a convent erected in Asiatic style, by a miserable but; or a gigantic rock - . Seventeen days passed, among inexpressible sufferings; the major was "nearly dead with exhaustion, when at the bowlers of a desolate desert, the telega stopped, near to a place where about twenty huts were erected, which appeared to be more fit for the lurking holes of wolves, than for the habitation of human beings. This is the place." said the rifleman. The major grew pale. No ! it is not possible," said he, convulsively pressing the hand of his companion. " You will not leave me in this terrible situation. What have I done? Of which crime am Is guilty ' 2 tam the victim of an incomprehensible fallacy. Oti,hare pity on me. Tate me back to St. Petersburg, and alt I own, all that my family possesses, belongs to ' dare not do it," replied the rifleman. "Then,' added be, in drawing from hie pocket a small parcel, "this, General Potemkin has or. dered me to hand to you, when parting trom you." It was the other glove of the Princess Turn• owaky The major trembled ; his cheeks became color: ed by internal emotion: then, finding vigor and courage in the remembrance of his love, he added. "Well, sir, tell General Potemkin, that I urn less afraid of Siberia, than I appreciate his presents, and that he sweetens my banishment by the same. - The rifleman bowed his whip cracked in the air, tied rhe carriage drove away; the exile saw unanimity him disappear, like one wandering in the cata-; “Rooltar, That the democracy of Louisiana pro combs, who . sees the light extinguish, and the laesimi.te:tciiradyfear-lhat;deeyre* those g reat i th e e!- Fri t constituted its role of thread tom o ff which shall guide him back to the 1 id es which that in its r e c ent d e fe a t i t ?me t", no fe y. light of the day.

The. Crevasse at New Orleans. We have received the Daily Crescent of the 12th instant, being out latest date by mail from New Or leans. After allotting to the difficulty in obtaining men to work at the Struve crevasse, the Crescent adds: 4 ' If the city • had shown half the energy of Mr. Satire, we should not now be exposed to the danger and annoyances of so inundation. In the city the rise of the water was not rio great yesterday an ft had previously been, although It did rise a little. The water continues to pour into the new canal with the velocity of tnia-race, yet it does not seem to affect the flood above. Those persons resichng in the in• undated district are subject to great inconvenience, if nothing more, and many of them can only ap proach their •habitations in skiffs. The levee built along the lower part of the new canal remains intact in, spite ofthe threats to demolish it. Notwithstand ing this, the water made it! appearance yesterday in the back portion of the 7th ward!. • In. 11 postscript, the Crescent gives the following as he latest news : GOOD trnwe—Very Late from the Crerosee.—' Mayor Crosaman received an express, at a late hour last night, from the crevane at Mr. Saure4 plant**. lion, whichlirings the cheering news that the opera; *ions were going on successfully, with every indica: tion of those employed being able to stop the further flow of water today (Saturday.) The messenger left thetrevasse at half past 10 o'clock last night. The stories current during the evening, of the in. crease of the crevasse, we ore pleased to learn, were destitute of truth. Should no untoward accident,oc , cur, our citizens of the inundated districts, will, in a day or two, be once more on dry land. CREVASSE AT Fori7Lca 2 9.—The extensive crevasse at Fertierla has attained a width cf from 250 to 300 feet, and all efforts to close it haye been given up. The water rushes through the opening with great velocity, and the country on the other side of the river is overflowed for miles. The planters seem to rely entirely on the falling of the river for getting rid of the -water on their plantations ; and if there should be the usual June rise, it may be August before the crevasse is closed. in the 'overflow of 1816, how, over, the river fell in May. It may do the same in Comma or GOLD Di:alarm—The Philadelphia Ledger, of Saturday, says: g , We understand that orders are in this city, offer ing our brokers two per cent. premium for gold dol lars. A. deposit° of $l,OOO of foreign 'gold was midi at the mint day before yesterday, for eoinage into dollars, but the depooltor.was informed that, so busrwere the officers and coiners that the dollars cnuld not be-made . for him in less then Awo weeks.

D, Baker's stock of goods. whether it will be a total loss cannot yet be ascertained. The losses of the other companies, we are intormed, are inconsiderable. Most of the buildings destroyed were small, and all of-.them composed -of wood. The number, large and small, as near as we can ascertain, is about twenty. At the time the fire broke out, the Wind was blowing fresh from the Northward, which caused the flames to spread most rapidly, and had it not been for the large three story brick fire proof store of Ludington's & Co's., No. 207, it must ttave swept the opposite block from Wisconsin to Michigan street. The wind carried large flakes of lire high into the air, and across the river, which is nearly 300 feet wide, and several times set on fire the roof of the large frame warehouse of E. C. KELLOGG & Co. This is the largest fire and the greatest loss of property that has occurred in..Milwaukie since the great - fim in April 1845, and was undoubtedly the work of nefarious incendiaries, as two or three) men Were seen standing in . front of Mr. Hawkins's building, in which the fire originated, but a few minutes before the building was discovered to be enveloped' in flames. Mr. -Hawkins informs us that there had been no fire in the building for the last eight days. Whoever these villains may be, we trust they may be discovered, and receive that condign punishment so foul a deed merits. Mr. Hawkins's case is one of peculiar hardship. He is one of the early settlers; a most industrious and persevering man, and has had swept from him, in the space of one short 'hour, all the property he possesses in the world, and his savings for years. irr Sunday Trips to Beaver...

Dtirraict Count., May 23.--Before Judge Hep- I burn, Win. Lippencott Sr Son er the Grant Street Baptist Church. This cause has occupied the attention of the Court , since Monday morning. It revived, in some de gree, the animosities_ growing out of the dispute be tween the Rev. Mr. 'l`easdale, and a portion of his congregation, and which has caused so much un christian feeling between members of an excellent religious society. Which are right we know not, but this much we do know, that their continued law-snits only impair their usefulness in this community. Suit was brought by James Lippencott, to recover advances made by his father and himself, to the Church, amounting to some seven hundred dollars. In answer to this the defendants set up, that in 1845 the plaintiffs subscribed an cutlet amount to pay off the indebtedness of the Church, and that the Con gregation never supposed that their advances would be claimed as a debt: The schism in the Chinehin the spring of 1847, created the diftleulty land the members who seceded we?e unwilling to comply with the terms of their subscription, as claimed by , the defendants. Those who have paid money towards the erection of the building, claimed the amount. Several suits were brought by the largest subscribers, and this it the beginning of the end of this long and vexed con trOversy. Mr. Berko and Mr. Flapnegin for the plaintiffs, and Mr. McCandless and Mr. Darragh for the de. fence.
