Of course, the most interesting feature of the newc from Ku rope by the Atlantic must be tho death, of tbe Czar and the influence of that ev.ut on the pending complications. Tut impiirtaat as may be the intelligence on this subject, or on other con? tinental affairs, in its interest for the tbougbtftil observer it can hardly inrpats the gradual inli cations and developments of that momentous po? litical (Tibia in which, without Buy will of their own, the Tritish nation are now involved at home. The last attempt to maintain that antiquated com? promise called the British Constitution?a com? promise between the cluss that rule officially and the class that rule noo cf.k'i.illy?has signally failed. The coalition ministry, the most consti? tutional of all. has not only broken down in Eng lsi.il but tbe c.institutioa itself has broken down in detail at every point where it has been tested by the war. Forty thousBnd Tritish soldiers have died on the shores of the Tlack Sea, victims to the Tritish Constitution. Officers, Staff Commis ?ariat. Medical Department Transport Service, Admiralty. Horse Guards. Ordnance. Army and Navy, all nud every one have broken down, have ruined themselves in the estimation of the world; but all M..1 every one have failed with the satis fdi tion of knowing that they had but done their duty in the eyes of the Tritish Constitution. The Lenden Timts spoke more tru'y than it knew, when it said, with respect to this universal fail? ure, thst it was the Tritieh Constitution itself w hich was on its trial' It has been tried, and found guilty. This Tritish constitution, what is it but a superannu? ated compromise, by which the general goveru irg power ii abandoned to some sections of the middle class, on condition that the whole of tbe real Government, the Executive in all its details, even to the executive department of the len'ula tive pe-wei?it that is the actual law-making in tbe two Houses of Tarliament?is secured to the landed aristocracy ' This aristocracy whi:h, subject to geieral principles laid down by the middle class, rules supreme in the Cabinet, ths l'arliainent, the Administration, the Army and tbe Navj?this very important half of the Tritish consritutw has now been ob'iged to sign its uwa death-warrant. It has been compelled to confess its incapacity any longer to govern Eag'and. Ministry after Ministry is fjrmed, only to dis? solve itself after a few wetks'reign. The crisis is peruiarent; the Government is but provisional. ?111 political action is suspended; nobody profes? ses to do more than to keep the political michine greastd well enough to prevent it from stopping. That pride of the constitutional Englishman, the House of Commons itself, it brought to a dead stand. It knows itself no longer, since it is split up in numberless fractions, attempting all the arithmeticAl combinations and variations, of which a given number of units It capable. It can no longer recognize itself in the various Cabinets, whick it makes in its own image, far no other par pose than to unmake them again. The bank? ruptcy is complete. And not only has th.e war had to be earried. on n tt e midit ef Ii- oatioial help'ei nesi. which, breaking oat l ie ? pestilence ia the Crimea, hu gradually ?e.red ill la* hranrsea of the hody poiitic, but there :? a* opjnu*nt to c intend with far more daageroui thin Kuuia?an opponent bjoih tban a match for ali the (.leiatonet Card sell*.

Wo long since eilled attention to the ei iitence of thu ilirea?e io a chronic form. It has been attgravated, of eourie, by the late dit_eul t.t-fc in America, and tl ? crisis tlat depressed ttir true.

When the BoaHta niinufacturc'i coaid no longer sei! their g^ods at borne or wo. i u? ?t <lo so rather toan d pre-' prices, thry resorted to tae ab.urd expedient of consigning them uiroad, especial y to India. Chi? na, Australia and California. This expedient en? abled trade to go en for a wbiie with leas embir ras?meot tban 1; goo-it had beei thrown at ome npon the borne market: but whentueytr rWcd at tbeir deatiaatiom the} produced etnbti rairrntnt at on:e. and aiout theemlof Septea,)er lust ti.e tfleet began to be fell in England.

Tbe si k manufacturers were equally kflVcted, their trade has been reduced to almost nothing and the localitiea where it is car? ried on have suffered, and ?tili suffer, thegreateit distress. Thea came tbe torn of tbe cotton-ipia oert and niunu'actuieri. Some of them bid al 1 ready suc^umbe j at our laut advices, aad a greU maay n.ore must do so.

Tbtre in no valid reason why there ahould be different rates of po*tsge on papers published and sent by mail within a ?tate, or from one State to another. Every man would reap his share of the benefits of the lowest possible rates of postage on ever\ species of mailable matter, aided by the greatest HLiformity attainable. Twenty cents a year poetage for a weekly newspaper is not far from 36 cents a year, or 13 cents, the rates bow charged without or within a State. Toe SO erat rate is a fair eoniproniii?.

This is both trou bit some to the public aud the Post-Office clerk*. The English rate? of postage on books is sixpence tterliug on each book weighing not over half a poULd, and sixpence tor each half pound, or frac tonal psrt of a half pound beys, ml the first. Tnis is very convenient to all parties, as the weight? tf number of separate half pounds?and the post- j sge can. in most cases, be told by the judgment, with tit t esortii g to the scales.

It if important to have as much uniformity al possible: ti) have all rates a. the lowest ?um that can be afforded, as well aa to have BTSTJ .nduce me nt for each and every perton that mails a package to piepay it.

Before condemuin^ our programme, let all these various considera? tions be duly weighed aud considered. slavery in missouri. The journals of St. Louis vehemently deny that dogs are employed in Missouri as a means of re? claiming fugitive slave*. Indeed, an imputation of that sort which recently appeared ii. our col? umns they treat with virtuous and edifying vitu? peration. It seems that an advertisement from a : (?per piiblithed at Lexington, Mississippi, wn inadvertently given In Thf. TsUBUVI as coming from Lexington. Missouri; in that advertise Jient. John L"Dg. the proprietor of sundry pa:ks of keen scented and well trained blwd-nounJs, re tpectfull) informed his friends and the p iblic of the condition on which he would employ tho?e dogs to capture runaway chattels. That horrible announcement we copied and commented oa, and tbt uc.h to do it justice w ere impossible, our re? marks have proved bitterly offensive to our cotem poraiies at St. Louis. One cf them, Tin Rrpui Lean, even accuses u* of raving forged the while story, just as last jew we were accused of having forged tLe narrative of the negro-burning near Natchez, which yet afterward turned out a verit ab> history. Just so In tne present case, our accusers are perfectly aware that the facts we a irged were genuine, and that the error consisted lis?p!j in w riting Mo., instead of M.ss., as the State, to whose escutcheon their gloomy stigma be.ODged. Dad we inteuded. by mem* of forgery, to BBrBsruists Mirtouri, is It llkaiy we should have ?.i?ea He.L tt as the name uf the county specially bit >*ed by the pretence of Mr. Long ani his less british dogs when it is notorious that in all Mis sout: taere is no such county, while there is oue iu XLt neighboring State of M.stitsippi.' But we are g'ad to see the journals of St. Louis to sensitive ou this su.-ject We are glad to know that tbey are tuhamed of Slavery and its ii.ftri.al ajjuxcta and accessories. I: indicates a cheeri.-.g improvement in the tone of public feel? ing and encoursget u* in our labor* for the over? throw of this mott perniciout institution. It would te hard.wefsncy.tofindanew*paperin Mississippi or Arkansas which would thu* indignantly repu? diate the use of dogs to track the flying tlave, and rettore him, torn and mangled, to patriarchal benignitiet. They would te e nothing out of the way in the fierce bounding of women and chil? dren by a John Long, or in the more ferocious brutalities of a Legre?. Bat when the slave drivers of St. Louis publicly protest against such ' barbarity, Ml deoy that it ii practiced in that .Bute, there ii reason to hopo that io some future : tim? they mty protest against Slavery altogether. ; Thla hopo is still further conformed by a letter we have received from oBl correspondent at St. Louis, w hich we think worthy of being laid be. fore the public as conspiraou?ly as poss.ble: "I promised in my last to give you some descrip? tion of Slavery as it exists in this State?i Scale which ought to have been free. To do this prop? erly is a delicate and difficult task.

" Slavery ia uncongenial in Missouri. Neither the climate cor the soil of our State w ill justify it as a necessary evil. It is upheld by a miser? able minority, consisting, for the m??st part, of large owners of slaves, demagogue politicians, and dough-face priests. "The first class are, naturally enough, interested in the integrity of the institution; a large portion af their property is invested in 'desirable' flesh snd blood, (together w ith other stock, neces? sary for its profitable employment.) While Slavery exists here, then, they are enabled to lead a quiet, vegetable life, being nourished and cultivated by the uurecompensed toil of other men. They have no desira t > live and move hon? estly and earnestly by true endeavor; they wish only to subsist. Take asvay their negroes, aud tbey would starve?genteelly, of course. To these legalized sponges, these parasite fungi, we are partly indrbted for the continuance of the curse of Missouri. It w ould be very disagreeable for them to have an independent existence. " The glory of prolonging Slavery in our State must, however, be mainly given to our dema? gogue politicians, and more particularly to those of the Atchlson and AtchlsonWktg stripe. They expend a vast amount of eloquence, enforced by bad logic, and enriched with bad grammar, in support of the ' institutions of the South.' Some of them were nurtured amid tbe aristocratic des? olation of Virginia, ami understand State's Eights; others were trained in tbe small, but fierce, Lo co-Foco army of Kentui ky, an 1 are very pug? nacious: others were 'grown' in the primitive regions of Missouri, and are very ignorant; and all unite to glorify and defend Slavery and Slavery extension. Claiming to be very bravo, they are very cowardly: the least rust'e startles them. For example: a few days ago a bill was intro- : duced in the Legislature to incorporate a Semin? ary at Cape Giradeau, to be under the charge of the 'Methodist Episcopal Church of the Eni ted 'States' This they deemed tobe danger in the dark. Tbe Methodist Church North wisied to establish a school for the benefit of Missouri, to j iliumiuo its dark places; and, moreover, one of tbe corporators was a suspected Abolitionist. A most treasonable plan, this, to educate the chil? dren of Cape Girardeau, and thus make Auti Slavery men and women of them. Such danger? ous enlightenment must be guarded against; and so these demagogues rise and spout for hours. They declare their loyalty to the j South with an emphasis that casts suspi? cion on their honesty. They denounce aa Abolitionists all who are in favor of the bill. I They overflow with zeal for Education, and some of them profess the piety of the Methodist Chur:h South, yet they are unwilling to admit either Ed- 1 ucation or Piety, unless it bo orthodox Pro-Slar- | ery. In fact, they proved that true enlighten? ment and religion are hostile to the beloved in? stitutions of tbe South. The bill to incorporate tie Seminary was finally rejected. " On a par with this wo may place the remark ef our Governor Price, in his late Message, to the i effect that the State L'niveraity is in a flourishing condition, (your correspondent thinks that it ia a ! third-rate grammar school,) and that the young ; men cf Missouri may no* o-jtain a liberal educa? tion at home, w ithout being obliged to go to Eutern colleges, where they might imbibe no? tions hostile to the institutions of their State! Gov. Price surely thinks that the Institutions of our State are in a precarious condition. - There ia no doubt about the dishonesty of a large portion of these demagogues. They do not care a straw about Slavery, except so far as their advecacy of its righteousness and utility may keep ttem in office. They gain a living by hold? ing up to view their sore spit, and like true laz zaroni, they do not wish that it should be cure I. ' ? ?'.! I Slav- ry be abolished in Missouri, their political occupation would be gone. "The clergy, Lere, are valuable assistants to the slaveholder and the demagogue. You remember that the Her. Dr. Rice, formerly of Cincinnati, now of this City, held a debate some years ago with the Rev. Lyman Elanchard, on the sinfulnesa of Slavery, supporting his own view of the ques? tion by the following remarkably convincing syl? logism: " Ood never accepts -naere. t/od t?Ii accepted ?laTcbolders, theret >re, Slavery Is right .'' "To which he should hare added, " Ood neeer accepts *:?. Ood has accepted polygam lets aad men a ho k?p? concubines, therefore, Polygamj aad coornblsage are right. ' With such milk of the Word we are fed; but Dr, Rice, and laaoy like him, are Southern-bom, ' and not ?o much to be blamed a* the psrtob* who cone here from tbe Nsta?7*I number, about a year since, to Ur, 4^ )oui>g preacher, s Birite cf Yeraif^g^.1 lnm riine-'tot, discourse in jne of on tbe rtoty of HaB?r.
