The Character of the late Czar. -" " In the recently' published ecocd volume of Sir Archibald Alison's " History of .Europe" (new eries,: we Jind the following" striking portrait of the late Emperor of Russia : i Xioholas 1. is the 'greatest sovereign that Uusbia has kaijwn since Peter the Oreat ; in some respects ho is greater than Peter himself. .Not lcs energetic in character axul ardent ' in improvement than his illustrious predecessor, he is more thoroughly rational, and ' be has brought the -nation forward more completely in the path which nature had pointed out for it. Peter was a Kussian only.in bis despo tism . his violence, his cruelty, bis benificence, his ardor for improvement, his patriotic am bition were all borrowed from the states of Western Europe As these were greatly fur ther advanced in the career of civilization .than his was, his reforms were in a great part premature; his improvements abortive, his refinements superficial, i. ' ' ' ; : lie aimed at doing by imperial what sojnany ardent men have endeavored to effect by Dem ocratic despotism to ingraft on one nation the institutions of another, and to reap from the infancy of civilization the fruits of its matu rity. 1 The attempt failed in bis bands, as it has ever done in those of his republican imi tators ; as it will do in those of their succes sors, whether on the throne or in the tribune, to the end of the world. ( His civilization was all external merely ; it made a brilliant ap pearance, but it did not. extend beueath .the. surface, and left untouched the strength and , itals of the State. ?

JLIe wishes to improve and ele vate his country,' and . be has done much ta effect that noble object ; but be desires to do so by developing, not changing the national spirit, by making it become a first Russia, not a second France or England.- ' He has adopted the maxim f 31oatequie,' "tiat no nation ever attained to teal greatness tut by institu tions in conformity with its spirit. He is nei ther led aWay by the thirst for sudden mechan ical improvement, like Peter, nor the praises of philosophers, hke Catherine, nor the visions of inexperienced philanthropy, like Alexander. . .He has not attempted to erect a capital in a pestilential marsh,- and done so at the ex pense of a hundred thousand lives ; nor has he dreamt of mystical regeneration with a visionary sybil, and made sovereigns put their hands to a holy alliance from her influence. He neither corresponds with French atheists, nor English Democrats ; he despises the praises of the first, he braves the hostility of the last. His maxim is to take men as they are, .and neither suppose them better nor worse.'
