Komissrow, who in 18G6 saved the life of the Emperor Alexander by turning aside the aim of an assassin, hanged himself on July 9, at the age of thirty-five. A mere journeyman hatter, he owed to the chance which placed him in the path of the Czar his elevation, at one stroke, to the highest pinnacle of fortune. His plebinn name was replaced by that of Kostromski; the Emperor's munificence gave him a landed estate ; he was named Colonel of a regiment of the Guard; and the Emperor authorised the opening for him of a national subscription, which produced nearly 2,000,000fr. But in spite of honor and riches, he has committed suicide, spirit-drinking being the cause of his lamentable end. Sewing Machines. EXTRAORDINARY IMPR' 'V EM ENT.
