Immediately above the town, a lariie creek empties into the Minnesota, which Jonathan Car ver, the flrst.

Carver lias a first rate landing for steamboats at all. stages of water; and is the practicable ;; head of navigation on the Minnesota whenever the wn- I ter Is too low for steamboats to cross the Rapids; w hich I are distant from Carver less than two miles in a direct line.

Tho Times and i’ioncor, as was expected, were out yesterday morning in feeble and wit less attempts to ridicule the grand illumina tion of Saturday night. They, of course, would attempt to iuduee their readers to believe that nothing like a general illumination had lakeß place. But all this amounts to nothing—not even as much as their base and long continued elV'orfs to deprive Minnesota of the benefits ot a Railroad, in which they most signally failed, and are now smarting nuder the odium of so inglorious a defeat. To the extreme lower part of the city, “Dayton’s Bluff” and Dayton's dwelling were lighted up iu a manner that at a distanca very forcibly impressed a beholder with the idea that a long train ot cars was pitching right into the city, under express speed—the bontire in front answering for the signal light of the locomotive, and the side windows of the house much resembling the lights of a night train of passenger cars un der full headway. We cross the marsh over Kittson's Addition, which of course was not illuminated—and per haps never will again be so brilliantly lighted as it was when they burned down the SintomL ue House —and advance westward until leach ing Jackson street. Hero we find Coulter's stately brick block shining ] forth in great splendor, also Lott Moffat's Temperance Hotel nearly opposite. On Third street between Jackson ami Roberts, Wait &. Co’s store and Calder’s saloon entered into the enthusiasm of the occasion. The Central House caught the spirit of the enterprise, as ulso did Marvin's crockery store in the rear of it on Third street. A large bontire was kindled in this vicinity.— On Roberts street Tyson & Co. and some of the stores nnd shops adjacent blazed forth from cel lar to garret. But until ascending to the second plateau of the city, the brilliancy of the display could uot bo realized. Commencing with thuMinne sotian Building and proceeding up Third. Fourth, St. Anthony and Fort streets, and traversing all the cross streets intersecting those public thoroughfares, tho illumination was very nearly general. Ou iit. Anthony ftreet, wo noticed only 1. One Whisky Shop, 2. One Doctors' Shop, and S. The Times Office, as participants in the few' cases of utter dark ness. We are informed, however, that the uon-ilinmination of tho Doctors’ Offieo was the result of mere accident. So, it would appear that the Times Office and the “grocery” were alone in their dark glory—on that street. Bonfires were numerous nil over tin* central and upper part of the Oity. Tho largest was in front of the Times Office, n-; per previous ar rangement. Several appropriate transparen cies shone forth in good light nnd tasto in that vicinity ; the old “American” blazed out in re splendent glory, with a band of music to add zest to llio scene ; the Winslow was ou hand with its hundreds of blazing luminaries; and the handsome residences of Gov. Ramsey, Mrs. Fillmore, Mr. R. Parker. Mr. Hollinsiicafl,nnd Mr. Myrick, and in fact all tho houses situated on the beautiful elevation be'ween Fort street aud the river bluff shone out in a style that attracted the attention ami admiration of all observers. One of the most noted incidents of tho even ing was the fact that the Capitol building was brilliantly illuminated. “ Who furnished lira candles for the Capitol?” was a query upon every tongue. Rumor says that, in part, Gov. Gorman is deserving of this credit. We kuow nothing about the mntlcr, but bo has. in ids time, been guilty of much greater inconsisten cies. Iu addition to Mr. Dayton’s illumination on the bluff iu tho eastern limits of the city, the residence of Judge Sherburne, on the northern hill, and those of Messrs. Swift, Howes, Selby and others on the high western suburbs ; of Mr. Brawley, on one of the islands, and of those cit izeiio of Dakota county on the bluff across the river, shone down upon us with a refulgence that demonstrated the enterprising sentiments of their occupants. The streets were thronged until a late hour with ladies and the juvenile portion of the city, who came forth to enj'oy the excitement of the grand scene. We saw no sour or disagreeable countenances, except those worn by one or two disappointed editors and their five or six only friends. The proceedings were, in the main, orderly ; and at twelve o'clock the city was as quiet as upon ordinary Saturday nights. St Panl retired to her wonted rest, highly pleased with tho good time she had appropriated to herself in rejoicing over the most important epoch in her history. A New Party.— Neighbor Hotchkiss, of the North-Western Democrat, has gotten out a call for a “ Democratic Republican Convention” in ■Hennepin County. Our neighbor is evidently becoming frightened at the signs of the times- This party, we take it, is to be opposed to the genuine ‘'Gorman orDemooratioparty,” which we read of In the Congressional proceedings. — New Hampshire Flection. The Democrats and Whigs of New Hamp ’hire arc routed. “ horse, foot and dragoons,’ by the all-powerful and victorious Know-No things. Scarcely a vestige is left of either the Ad parties. Metcalf, the Governor elect, for merly acted with the Democratic party. Three anti-administration members of Co agrees are elected, and nearly the whole legislature i 3 of the same stripe. Two U. S. Senators will be elected who will oppose Pierce’s Administra tion to the “ bitter cud.” Rather sad consola tion—coming as it does from his own State. The Galena Advertiser thus sympathizes with our old party friends of New Hampshire ; “ Badly Cut Up !—Our old and honored Whig friem.s iu New Hampshire wcie almost literal ly annihilated Inst Tuesday. They were a bravo baud, and stood the brunt of battle for thirty years, without a waver of faith, till the cannibal Know-Nothings camo along, when both Whigs and Democrats were devoured at u single meal.

A Storm. —A slight fall of rain commenced on Sunday evening, which soon changed to snow, and then to a violent hurricane of wind, which continued through the night and part of yesterday. Every house in the city trembled us if agitated with an earthquake ague-fit; and many citizens expected to awake yester day morning and fiud themselves blown across the river. Several chimneys of tho Winslow House were leveled with the roof, also one of rite chimneys of the Merchant's Hotel. Tiie front wall of Mr. Cooley's law office—a brick building on .St. Anthony street—was broken and much damaged by the wind. Other slight damages occurred in and about the city : and yesterday continued to be one of the most raw and disagreeable days of the season—or.e which did not conduce to the opening of navigation a particle. Appropriation*.— Congress scattered the public treasures with a profuse hand tho last days of the session, tho w hole appropriations amounting to some sixty millions. The Geno ral Appropriation Bill was $ 10,000.000 ; the Army, $15,000,000; and Navy, $15,000,000; Post Office, $3,500,000 Pensions, $1 400,000; anil Fortifications. $1,072,000. The appropria tions for fortifications are scattered from Psu obscot, Maine, all along tho Atlantic coast and Gulf of Mexico, round to it. Phiilippe, Louis iana. Forts on the northern frontier of Texas, $50,000 ; fort at tho entrance of San Francisco Harbor, $300,000 ; and fort at Alcratras Islands $200,000. Riverand Harbor Improvements get nothing, unless it be some $45,000 for deepen- St. Clair Flats, and a like sum for improving St. Mary's river. We think such an appropria tion was made, but the accounts from Washing ton arc a littlo mixed. Fifteen thousand was appropriated for Fort Montgomery, Lake Champlain, aud $6,000 for repairs at Fort Nia gara. Dreadful Tragedy. —We learn from the Mohawk (Herkimer Co.) Courier of the- Ist inst., that a boy named James Wallace, aged 14, was killed by his brother.only twelve years old, in the town of Ohio, in that county, on the 17th nit. A quarrel had occurred between the two, growing out ot an attempt on the part of tho deceased to chastise a twin brother of the younger lad. The latter, by some means, having obtained possession of a loaded pistol, deliberately discharged its contents into the head ofthc deceased, who lingered for a few hours and then expired in the greatest agony. The mother of tho boys was present nnd wit nessed the dreadful teerse, hat was unable to prevent the catastrophe. The father was ab sent. There has been no examination in the case as wa unders'anu, and the young fratri cide is yet r.fc large. TAP' The State Prison in Vermont is in a fair way to become a burden on the State Treasury !

Lite yesterday aT:wnooa,v?> reserved'St note from our friend, Col. J. E. Sievoras.of J/ianeap olis, giving the particulars of ri rsoet <liuutro«9 J cn! amity that befel the beautffbl Wiro Swpou-i j hion Bridge which spans the Miastoippi a* teat : point. The event occurred during th* ksrri* 1 cane on Sunday night. Wo gather the fellow | ing particulars: As in St. I’anl, after the brief duration of tha | rain shower, tho wind suddenly peered round ! to the north, and, says our correspondent, i»me : sweeping down the Mississippi like a tornado— ; blowing more severely than was ever known be | fore. At half-past nine it reached its height ; | taking with it at that moment about three-fonrth iof the wire suspension bridge. Tho crash was i awful, equal to the thundering of heavy guns. ; Tho anchors that v.eru attached to the bridge I gave way a few moment* before the centor of : the beautiful structure came down. Those an -1 chore on the south-west corner, planted on the ; hill back of Col. Stevens” residence, gave way ' first. It was feared that ibe towers would fall, j but they stood nobly, ft is impossible to tell the amount of damage, but it cannot be less than seven thousand dollars It is perhaps j fortunate that the accident took place as it did, ! although another storm of equal severity may ! not occur fur years to come. Ii is certain we : never have had such an one before —that is, T since we have resided in Minnesota. It must necessarily take two months to got j Hie bridge repaired.

The suspending wire# Bad anchors arc only gone. Wu deeply sympathiae with our neighbors i:i this serious damage to their useful and beauti ful structure. But from the known euterpri •: of those who compose the bridge company', wc are well assured the bridge will aoon again rise in its elegant proportions, wore firm and durable than at the lima of its drat eonstruc tioa. Ti.a new* brought by tint Africa, of the death of Nicholas, Emperor ol Russia, is probably au thentic. It is likely to have a greater bearing on the events of the world, to human view, than , the death ol a.iy other individual that eould i have taken p.ace. Ho will bo succeeded by his son Alexander, who. it is said, does not iu i bcril the grasping disposition of his father, and has always b#eu opposed to the present war. i On the contrary, C-OBstautinc, thu second son, ‘ is a heated advocate of the w ar. • Alexander m ! about thirty years old, and w as bora before his | father ascended tho throne. Ho is laid to be j well educated, and has tho reputation of being t the projector of th# £jt. Petersburg aud Moscow railway. i There are suspicions that Nicholas was innr- I dered, but as the particulars of his death are 1 not known, we have no evidence that such was j the fact.

In a year he was de ! posed by his cousin, the Empress Elizabeth, ! who conlined him in various prisons. In 1764 | he was made away with by Catheriuo IE, dur ing an insurrection. 1762. Peter 111., murdered by his wife, the ' Empress Catherine 11. * 1810. Paul, her sou, murdered by a conspir j acy ot his nobles. 182.7. Alexander, supposed for a time to have been made away with by tho conspiracy which broke out on his death, but later discov eries, Eom Russian sou roe?, however, throw' doubts on this rumor. It i .said in Russia that assassination is the natural death of a Czar. Time and circum stances may disclose, perhaps, whether Nicbo j las died iu this natural way. He ascended the ; throne in December, 1823. and was in tho 58th i year of hi* age at the time ofhis death. New York, March 16. The Washington correspondent of tho Sun, j of this city, telegraphs that tho Russian Minis ! tor at Washington pronounces tha death of tho i Czar an unmitigated hoax, i Beyond tho startling announcement of the 1 death of the Emperor of Russia, there is no i news of interest. | A lioudon despatch, dated Friday evening, j 2d inst., says:—“ Tiiis evening, in the liou.-o ;of Lords, the Earl of Clarendon says : —* I think I it my duty to communicate to your lordships i the contents of a telegraphic despatch which I j received half an hour since from Her Majesty'# i Minister at the Hague : The Emperor Nicholas | died this morning at I o’clock, of pulmonic ! apoplexy after an attack of influenza.
