THE KILLING OP ALEXANDER II , The shadow which for the laa1 fifteen years has been brooding over the life of the ill fated Emperor o ; Russia hss deepened into night. The hand of what the world Trill call an assassin has accomplished its purpos and Eoropo stands appalled at the fear ful death of & monarch who for twen ty-iiryesrz has swayed the destinies c the largest empire en the face of the globo. The death of Alexander , while Hko all tragedies of the kind , sudden and startling cannot bo said to bo en tirely unexpected. Five previous at teirfpls'Sgilnit his life "have failed. The existence of a society trhoao members were pledged lo relieve the world of one whom they "believed to bo the greatest enemy to constitutions liberty , was -well known. Repeated warnings , countless plots , in" ' numerable conspiracies , eorno of wlikh-were traced ro the walls ol his own palace , have for over fifteen years kept-tho-dead monarch in a con- tlnual- slate of apprehension , and proyeHTipoa hliTiealth until .rJTsns impending insanity alarmed his phy- glcans-and-indncod" the bousoofRo- o cpaeldor an abdication the reigns of government to the czaro- In the death of Alexander Russia has lost"the most enlightened and liberal - oral ruler of her long line of despots While centuries behind England am FraYco lnhis method of government , 'the ' late emperor mnct be .given credil for accomplishing during the quarter of a-century in which ho ruled over JEtucsia , a number of important politi cal innovations. It was ho who in 1861 , against the will of the nobles o ! the empire , . .emancipatedtwenty mil lions jof serfs and decreed the sep'ara tlon of education and military disci pline. In the early years of his reign he'eylnced a tendency towards grant log Important concessions looking towards popular representation one punished official corruption and petty tyranny'with a merciless hand. Jt" was only after the first attack upon-hls lifo in April , I860 , that the policy , of concession with which the czar opened his rolgn gave place to a rl ld. proscription of every tendency towards constitutional liberty and a retrogression to the old methods of his predecessors. _ The nihilistic movement , rhich will b'e held * responsible for the death ol the czar , is the natural protest ol antnslared nation in the 10th century against a system of government based on those of the dark ages. The per sistent refusal of the , czar to give to iis subjects some of the elements of popular representation was alone Re sponsible for the originrcmlh anil development of-nihiliam. Presenting the spectacle of the only civilize" ! coa- 'inental government which iad resist- 'ed all appeals ofhor people.towards" Bomblance of popuIacjrepresentaCion it was not strange that with' the qrowth of education and the diffusion of intelligence , ' secret organization should nttemptiio secure thai which had been denied to open protest and popular sentiment. A general feeling was prevalent , in tha empire5'that what the czVf could not accomplish , his heir apparent both could and would. Urgent attempts were made to ! indnco ; him to abdicate ftei favor of his aon who iras consider ed more in accord with the national aspirations , and who , it was believed would follow the example of Austria , Germany , Prussia , Denmark ' , and Spain , and give to tne Russian people least a nominal share in the na tional governmont. Failing in this , Nihilism determined to accomplish their end by taking tha lifo of the emperor , and after four unsuccessful attempts , it jias gained the purpose which it sought to secure. A It is la serious question whether Alexander HI will be able to moot the desire * of his revolutionary subjocls- His education and instincts incline him to grant greater political freedom the masses than his father. Ho Is eld to have urged the , granting a constitution to Russia and a parliament In which the people might' robe the national needs. That' is exceedingly popular with < bo 80s generally -admitted , and the opening months of his rolgn will ba awatted.with Interest by all lovers of freedom and constitutional liberty.

FLORAL .DECORATIONS FOR DIFFICULT OCCASIONS. New York Trituno. The unusually largo number of so cial gatherings in this city this winter and the severe weather of the last two months have considerably raised the price of cut flowers. The.custoui that 133 sprung up within the last few days of a lavish display of flowers on all possible occasions weddings , funor- ils and receptions has induced florists to exert themselves to the utmost in : he production of elabora'o and tasto- : ul designs , constructed of such flowers as coem most appropriate to the occa sion. Nowadays the floral decorations at a fashionable wedding , dinner or reception are a noticeable feature. For the construction of a bouquet or de sign considerable skill , ingenuity and : aste on the part of the florist is ab solutely necessary. The old saying ; hat true art is perfect harmony of de rails is perhaps nowhere better illua- : rated than In the correct grouping of iho flowers of different slzos , shapes and color * . In the moro pretentious florists' shops trained male assistants , whose natn employment ia the arranging of jouquets , are employed. They are nearly all Frenchmen or Germans , who have been bred to this work in ; heir native lands , where far moro at- ientlon is paid to scientific and ays- ; ematlc floriculture than in this coan- ; ry. A prominent and experienced dealer in this city , In speaking about the increase in thi taste for flowers , said , recently : "In the last thirty years there has been a remarkable in crease in the UBO of flowers for' deco rative purposes. Tears ago the elab orate patterns in cut flowers that , can now bo seen at any weddinsr , funeral , or public occasion were unknown. In lie wreath the base liet making a was usually a piece of willow or a'barrel hoop ; if a 11vri cross , two pieces cf lath formed the vriH groundwork , and the whole dovlco ; eic when completed was such as reflected for ic little credit upon the artist. Now everything { 3 changed , there is no de vice or design , however intricate and To complicated , thnt can not bo con structed at a first-class establishment. Crosses , harps , stars , lyres and devices - vices figurative of the vocation of the deceased person are much in vogue for funerals , while the pretty English w < innovation of the wedding bell , made ro usually of white roses and other deli r roiC cately tinted flowers , is now very fashionable. Among the queerest devices that I have made p were Greek letter mon ograms presented by college fraternities to orators at commence ment axercists In 1844 the sale of flowers for New Year's day , in what feat was then the largest florist shop iu the city , amounted to only § 200 , and pro- baoly for the whole city of liew York did not exceed § 1000. Now the amount spent for floral decorations on J. that day ia estimated at § 50,000 , while for the whole year the amount spent in these perishable ornaments amounts , hundreds of thousands of d l- lars. There nrb almost 500 florists' establishments -within a radius rf-ten Uifa miles of Now York city , and the capi fa I tal invested in land , structures and stock is not lofa than § 8,000,000 Tha green houses from which come iho flowers , and plants that are sold ia ihis ci'y are in the upper part of Man . hattan Island , in Hudson county , N. . , in Staten Island and in the Long Taland toirns within ton miles from New ' Yx > rk. While the profits h giants are large , being abont lOO' p er " . the profits in cut "flow'erjrar -still larger.
