' CCorrcspondcneo oflhoFhniiaiTßilly Evening Biotin,) Paeis, Friday, Juno 10th; 1868.—A. verp'-inter estlnit work was published some little (tee ago in London, by Mr. Van Ainbfcry, Hungarian. It wsb written by himself in English, good | English, too; and contained on aiconnt of hia really wonderful travels in Northern and Central Asia, to Bokhara and Samarkand. The chief ob* | Jcct and motive of Mr. Van Ambety’s daring cx j pedition was purely philological, in order to j compare the dialects of thosedistant regions with v.eome of those spoken in his own country, f and of which he felt convinced that the root and origin were Asiatic. But he also looked about ! “Ini as a traveler and tonrist, and, to a certain as a politician also; and gave the resnlt of his observations on these points In the sepa rate volume above alluded to. His work affords the most vivid, faithful and practical portraiture Of life in those countries, and of the perils which beset the traveler in them, 1 have - ever met with. Throughout his whole journey, his life was every day in his hands,' according to the scriptural expression. He traveled os'a Turkish Dervish, which his consummate know ledge of Eastern languages and customs,perfected by along residence at Constantinople, in prepar ation for his perilous expedition, enabled him to assnme and carry out. Bnt his European physi ognomy threatened every moment to betray him; and woe betide him If discovered to bo a disguised nfldel and spy. Some of the scenes of which he was an eye-witness make one’s blood creep to recall them. There was one especially, which took place at Bokhara, if I remember rightly, which Is not easily forgotten. The sav age Emir of that city had just defeated some re" belllous tribes and taken a host of prisoners. All ilie oldest and most distinguished of the latter were led into the market place and laid bound, in rows, on their backs; and there Mr. Van Ambdry saw ‘ their eyes scooped out, the executioner wiplßg his Instrument on the beard of each of hi 8 victims, aDd setting them on their legs again as fast as they were operated on, so that the whole blind and bleeding band might stagger and knock their heads together about the place The life of no stranger, however peaceful or innm cent, is safe for a moment in those fearful regions- I remember longing, when readlng thework. to hear of some power interfering to put an end to such an atrocious spite of barbarism; and It is apropos to the Invasion of Bokhara and Samar cand by the Russians that I have spoken of Mr. Van Ambdry arid his remarkable volume! Our newspapers, both here and in Eng land, are full of the subject, and of predictions of what .it may lead to. The French press, of coarse, sees in the advance jDd success of the Russians the approaching fall of the British Empire in India; and there can oe no doubt that Russia is matching eastward, md to the southof Asia, with giant strides. Her name alone, Mr.. Van Ambdry found, inspired (error and respect even among the fierce tribes withwhom he was sojourning. Her colossal p6wer is gradually rolling forwurd and concentrating itselfiar beyond while in Europe the complete and apparently .final annihilation and‘annexation oi Poland is closing up her fron tiers and drawing a dark and ominous line along the borders of tho Northern States. What makes Russia more formidable at the present moment is the impression that the wiser bnt loss adventurons policy of Alexander, unlike that of his father, is developing and concentrating the internal forces of bis empire, so that, although he may appear to advance more slowly, the progress will be in the end more irresistible. There are but two great empires in the world, the Russian and American, of which the law and necessity of ■ ‘development” is still the vital principle. All other nations are rather trying to stand still, and hold their own. These, on the contrary, are impelled forward by the very rule and law of their existence. America, fortu nately for her, has to eneounter on her own con- inent, for the most part, only puny and insigni- dcant adversaries, even where she is not wel -1 corned as a friend and benefactor and deliverer. Russia must soon be necessarily arrested in her inevitable efforts at expansion, both East and ; South, both in Asia and Europe, by more formi dable opponents and long consolidated powers What will be the event of the Struggle? Wili Europe combine, and, according to the choice given her by Napoleon, turn republican to avoid being made Cossack? \ln one direction or the other there are growiiig symptoms that the Na poleonic prediction is Advancing steadily but surely towards its fulfilment. The Servian business still occupies attention; but, to use the stereotyped phrase, does not Seem likely to give rise to “political complications." The only probable inference to be drawn at pre sent from the event which has happened there is that it has been dictated by the jealousy of the rival families and partlsans of Black Georges and the late Prince Michael, the Capulets and Mon tagues of -Belgrade. Russia seems to ( have no in flbntion of interfering actively at present, and the Servians are. to be * ‘left to elect their own ruler," which seems, however,, to mean Uttle more than that the party which is uppermost for the mo ment will be allowed to fill the vacant throne. In the Corps Legislatif the debates on tho parish-roads bUI have just finished, after oc cupying seven sittings. The Chamber has plso authorized the issue of a new loan, with lottery prizes, by the Suez Canal Company; the Gov ernment taking care, when challenged, to that effect iby the opposition, to declare that by the present authorization it did not mean to extend any guaranty, moral or otherwise, to the under taking or stock'of tho Company; but left the public to estimate, entirely for itself the value of the security offered to its acceptance. It is worth while noticing, as a specimen of French finance, that the Biff for “closing defi nitely" the accounts of the Budget of 1866 has just been presented. The "excess” of incomes over expenditure iB set down at ninety-eight millions, for the “ordinary’! budget of that year which would, no doubt, be a charming result were that “all,” but unfortunately it Is not “all ;” nor anything like it; for imme-, diatelv after m comes the “extraordinary" bud get, and gobbles up. the aforesaid “excess”in a single mouthful;or at least,reduces it from ninety eight millions to two! ■ ..111 0 heat In Paris has been excessive this week and Is made more insupportable by the demoli tions going lorward in so many of the most fre quented quartersof the town.thoßuodela Paix, ...... , _ V- ;. ‘t-js,* -■ Lii'il' rm&-+ifiiffM PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY.

The cheers for Governor Eyre, how ever, were the longest and loudest. The folio w mg cries elicited loud groanß and execrations": John Bright, J. 8. Mill, Charles Baxton, “'The Jamaica Committee,” D. J, Keatdon, Edmond Beales, M. A., etc., etc. ' The Mayor of Oxford was introduced and pre sented an address of welcome to the Prince of Denmark, and the„Prince made the following neat speech In reply. " Mr. Mayor: 1 look back with mixed feelings of pleasure and regret to the time which I spent at Oxford—of pleasure, because I recall the me mory of peaceful and happy days; of regret, be cause those days were so few, and were so sud denly lnlcrrnpted by a call to rougher and sterner unties. To-day I have received atfhigi honor from the L Diversity of Oxford. It is no small addition to that honor that the Mavor and bur gesses of this ancient and loyal citw deem mo worthy of a special address. Mr. Sftyor and gentlemen, I thank you heartily for this mark of your good opinion, and more especially for the. kind and generous words in which yon have ex pressed your feelings toward myself, toward mv august parents, and, above all, toward my be loved sister. , Cladstone’s Cbttrcb BUI. The following is the bill of Mr. Gladstone to prevent for a limited time new appointments in the Church of Ireland, and to restrain, for the same period, in certain respects, the proceedings oi the Ecclesiastical Commissioners for Ireland.” just rejected by the House of Lords: Whereas, Her Majesty has been graciously pleased to signify that she has placed at the dis posal of Parliament, for the purpose of legisla tion during the present session, her -interests in the temporalities of the several archbishoprics, .bishoprics and other ecclesiastical dignities and benefices in Ireland and in the custody thereof and whereas, it is expedient to prevent the crea don of new personal interests in Ireland in the Established Church in Ireland through the exer cise of any public patronage, and to restrain in certain.respects the powers of the Ecclesiastical Commissioners for Ireland. Be it therefore enacted by the Queen’s Most Excellent Majesty, by and with the advice and consent of the Lords spiritual and temporal, and Commons, in this present Parliament assembled, and’ by the au thority of the same, ub follows: !.

In fact this grouping of States, which are popularly supposed to be for and against ‘Young Greenbacks,” and which grouping may in itself be accidental, is the only Visible sign by which the probable temper of the Convention can be even guessed at. THE OUTSIDE PRESSURE. fniTnrt ,he Presidency have frequently d n l . he £ nt i We Pressure to be of essential ben- Mr. Buchanan didin 18116, when, as is pop ' !?,•— rl , y believed, the Keystone Club vocilerated ;kim into a Domination, and thfa experiment it ia the friends of Mr. Pendleton hope to irtpeatnow. At all events, it is certain the only organized bodle ß of men coming beniln the name \JS y P, aI “ r candidate are marching. under Pendleton banner. Of thialllSls the »odlb icsoscort, five hundred strong, ancf' theiMfdle tou Democratic Club, equally numeroiHwjth from Cincinnati, together with smail'wven d'eren organizations from parts of Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky. These organ izations are to arrive on Friday, but Pendleton is already largely represented in the city by unor ganized adherents, who are very actively and earnesOy at work in his behalf. It would seem “Hv ber theß ® gentlemen Jhat the county of Young Greenbacks’ ” residence has been depopulated for the time, and that the resi- f e n tßhav<; ®bcked thither en masse to further his interests. If this large number of outside ad herents be an advantage it Is one that Pendleton almost exclusively enjoys, for no other candi date has an organized body working tn.his name, and none has a tithe oi the active aggressive support that boa gathered around him. 6b indeed, a heavy pressure against him: but wbUe it is so,it is not segregative lor any one else, It is a quiet pressure that works unseen of aud blaiants not its purposes in the congre tions ol Uie faithful m hotel public rooms, bit is rather to be found laying its pipes in private par lors lor the benefit of the select few Who are sup. posed to have influence enough to carry into effect whatever may be there arranged and ordered This pressure is composed in fact of the “rascally bond holders. who areaccuscd of caring nothing about men or principle!}, except to kill off Pendleton and his greenback l®My, which latter will be effected, they consider, by thc sacrifice of the former, for P® cul iw grievance of the Pendletonians that the bondholders are ready to accept Hon ducks, who, they allege, bolds precisely the Se' eWB ° n flnanco < l ueBti on as their can- Not to dwell too long upon this topic it may be generally remarked that the struggle between the East and West on Pendleton and finance has already grown to be earnest and almest bitter. _ POSSIBLE SHARP PRACTII ES. Ihe Pendletonians are watching their oppo nents very closely, and see something sinister in their every movement. They have heard a rumor that three hundred tickets of admission to the haU have been reserved for Tammany Society a large number more for the Minhattnn Club, and also for an undue proportlohTC?Viadioa, leaving comparatively little room on the main door for general comers. 'Hence they infer a purpose to ll? the Convention to the detriment of the VVest, and have expressed in vory decided terms their purpose to resist any such arrangement, it was even _ assorted by one pro | mment Ohio Pendletonian that if any game of the kind was attempted they would pack off . the Convention to Pike’s Opera House, and leave Tammany to its idols. Again, in his capacity of Chairman oftßeNatlonal Executive Committee, appointed one Edward Cook as Sergeant-at-Arms during the preliminary stages of the Convention. How i the Pendletsnian chunces were to bo cooked by this action was not avowed, but it gave great um brago. The Pendletonians denied the authority of Mr. Belmont to appoint anybody without con suitation with the Committee, and announced reejr retention of securing the appointment of FelisMcCloskey. From aU this it will be seen that the Pendletonians are:wide-awake, and the Antis are supposed to be very cunning, and en deavoring to inveigle flsb into their nets with all manner of f oul baits. _ .CONVOCATION OF NOTABLES.

The people have grown wise enough to trace the clr wnrM m * BPr y thr ? n gh‘be tangled meshes of the world_the cunning leglslaUon by which the few ™ b to® maD >> ap d by means of Jails, prisons, and standing armies hold them at bay' and prevent them lrom avenging their wrongs. As the ballot Is the Colnmbiad of onr political power, and eveiy citizen who has it is a full ?™ ed monitor, we demand this sure protection fdrall—Men and Women; including, of course, the mothers, wives and daughters of tho brave men who tell in our last revolution. A place in all the profitable and honorable employments, a fair day a wages for a fair day’s work, are better than charity; for virtue and dignity can only be maintained by self-dependence and self-support Give a man a right over my subsistence,” says Alexander Hamilton, J ‘and he has a right over my whole moral being.” ' As labor is ever degraded by disfranchlsoment, and as capital uses the cheap labor of woman to depress man s wages, and extend the hours of his toll in all those trades where she works by his side, it is clearly the interest of laboring men to extend the right of suffrage to the women of the nation, who are now fast coming to compete with them in the woi Id of work. * It is the duty of the Government to protect its citizens—native-born or naturalized—ln foreign ands, and to demand the Immediate release of those now confined in British jails for no crimo committed on its soil. No more of tho public lands should be granted to any corporation on any pretext whatever; and all lands not disposed ot should be withdrawn rrozn the market and sold only in small Quantities to actual settlers. All soldiers and saUors shonfd be entitled to a quarter section of land, and all disabled in tho recent war bo supported at tho public expense. , We want economy in tho appropriations by Congress, and taxes laid for revenue purposes to meet the necessary and proper expenses of the Government, and not to enrich a favored few bv class or sectional legislation. We need a new American system o f firianctf' and political economy, which will reffevo Ameri can Interests from tho financial control of Europe and protect labor from tho tyranny of Capital A system that compels five-sixths of/tlie human family to ceaseless toil tor a mere hand-to-mouth subsistence is dearly false and oppressive. An immediate return to specie payments would so derange trade and commerce, and paralyze the whole industry of tho country as to make the payment of tho national debt Impossible, and compel absolute repudiation. While the West has not money enough for its business wants, and the South no monoy at all, the national debt, created by Inflation, can never be paid bv contraction. J 1. Government to pay off the 5-20 bonds in legal tender notes, and these to be funded at the option of the holder into 3 per cent, convertible bonds, subject to no taxes. 2. Greenbacks shall bo the lawful monoy or currency. Tho $300,000,000 of National Bank •notes, and $50,000,000 3 per cent, certificates to be withdrawn and replaced by $350,000,000 of greenbacks, thus saving about $25,000,000 per annum. , * 3. Government to Issuo currency bonds bear ing three per cent, annual' interest In ex change for greenbacks, again reconvertlble into greenbacks at par or on demand, andjree from taxation. / / 4. Tho Secretary of the Treasury to keep only a reasonable balance in tho Treasury Depart ments—say $100,000,000 as a maximum arid all above that sum to be need in buying and can celling the six or five per cent, interest bonds. This change will probably save about $20,000,000 annually in interest. 5. The expenditures for the army to bo re duced to $30,000,000 annually, and every regi ment shall consist of not less than one thousand men. When regiments fall below one thousand, they shall be disbanded or Incorporated with other regiments. The pay of all army offlc&S? not in actual service to ceQso during suck term This would save about $170,000,000 per annum.' 6. The expenditures for the navy to be reduced 000,000 annually, thus Baving about 7. These several changes would effect a total immediate reduction in tho people’s burdens of about $276,600,000 per annum, representing at six per cent, a capital of $4,600,000,000, thus ex tinguishing at a blow a burden on the people equal to double tho amount of our present na tional debt. 8. The Income tax to bo repealed. Taxes to be Imposed en all fixed property, Including bonds and mortgages, State, railway, insurance and bank stocks, and all Government bonds, except ing the three per cent, convertible bonds enu merated abovo.

It contained, in nearly eveVy sentence, a sharp hit at-the Emperor and his principal supporters. The anecdotes are all good. Hero is one of them: Rochofort says he sat, the other day, in a coffee house, when he overheard tho following conver sation: “Guest—Waiter, hand me La France.." “Walter—Yon shall have it, sir, as soon as the gentleman yonatr has read It. I will bring you La France as soon as it is free.” “Guest As soon us Franco is free? Good heavens, then f shall have to wait a long while.” —Although the Emperor of Austria declared, after receiving tho neWs.Of his brother’s execu tion at Qucretaro, that he would not sign any more death-warrants, another criminal was exe cuted in Vienna a few days ago. —The CnDton of Uri, in Switzerland, is a bad country for saucy editors.
