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! ■

and the Crown Prince of Denmark were pre
sent, and the latter was invested with honorary
degrees. Thennder-gradnates amused themselves
as usual in the Sheldoniare Theatre previous to

The names which'called forth loud cheers were
tho Pnpcess of Wales, Lord Derby, Mr. Disraeli
Governor Eyre, the Bisto.j of Oxford, President
Johnson, Sir Robert Napier, and the Poet Long
lellow. The cheers for Governor Eyre, how
ever, were the longest and loudest. The folio w

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.

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 case of the vacancy of any archbishopric
or bishopric, or of any ecclesiastical dignity or
beneficesi in Ireland in the gift of her Majesty, or
to which any archbishop, bishop or other
ecclesiastical corporation as such, or any trus
tee or trustees acting in a,public capacity, are or
shall be entitled to present or appoint, it shall
not be lawful to appoint any person to succeed
to archbishopric, bishopric, dignity or benefice,
and upon the happening of such vacancy the
management and receipt of the rents and profltß,
all the lands, tithes and other emolument apper
taining to such archbishopric, bishopric, dignity
9? kc? e *l ce ! shall be transferred to and vested in
the Ecclesiastical Commissioners far Ireland
snbject to all charges legally affecting the same!
and tho said commissioners shall haw power
grant renewals and do all other acts which may
be necessary for the due and proper manage
ment thereof, and shall cause the same and Qie
proceeds thereof to be kept distinct from all
other funds, to be disposed of in such manner as
Parliament may direct.
In case of the vacancy of anyarchbishopicor
bishopric, the person designated by the 31st sec
tion of the 3d and 4th William the Eonrth, chap
ter 37, to execute the powers of the said act dur

The St. Nicholas and Fifth avenue promise at
present to be the political centres during the
coming week. At the former it appears will
congregate the anybody but Pendleton delegates,
while at the latter the nobody but Pendleton
members will assemble. 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.

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

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.

! ra L'niversal Amnesty and Universal Suffrage, as
measures of justice and peace, are better and'
cneaper than a standing army and Freedmea’s
Bureau at a cost of $250,000,000 a year. 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.

—The latest number of Rochefort's Lanteme
was suppressed by order of the Government. 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. Offences against tho
press law-are punished with twenty or more lashes
on the bareback. Tho stocks are also still in use
for journalistic offenders. }
