F Niel = ee Bo with regard to treason. What scourily is ‘there for society, for the government and Sgainst insarréction and revolution, when Jeff Davis, the chief traitor, is set free without a ‘trial? It is & melancholy fact that the whole country is going back to the anarchy of unor- ganized society, for the want of proper laws or the proper adminisiration of such as we have. ‘Tt will be well for the Constitutional Conven- ‘tion of the State now in session to look into ‘this matter and provide a remedy, as far as ‘New York is concerned. They have an oppor- tunity to make society more secure and to provide for the better administration of the ‘laws; and a fearful responsibility will rest upon them if they do not perform the duty. Hebrew Rule. The Derby-Dieraeli Reform bill is being modified in a way to suit all parties. When Bright raised a storm against it we said that ‘the government after a show of resistance would yield all that was demanded of it. The antici- pation has not beer disappointed. The altera- ‘tions insisted upon by the opposition have all ‘been conceded, and so the retention of power ‘by the greet controlling Hebrew element in British politics is secured for ‘the next quarter ‘of a century. ,. ° The Jewish Bible predicted the coming of the Messiah, and Disraeli is one of the three or four Messiahs who are fast changing the face of things all over the world. When the Jews qwere driven out of the Holy City and became scattered as a people they carried the elements ‘of civilization with them, and diffused them in their wanderings. In the middle ages the Jew- ish savans were distinguished for their pre- eminence in every branch of learning, end now Jewish statesmen and financiers are displacing the proud nobles and political econamists who have heretofore swayed the 4 fortunes of nations. « In England their influence has become para- mount. There is a Messiah at the head of the political, and another Messiah at the head of the financial, affairs of the country. To both the haughty Norman barons bend the knee in meek subserviency. It is only the masses that sean afford to show any independence of them. But even these they manage with character- istic adroitness. Disraeli dupes them by stealing the cast-off clothes of the whigs and attiring his tory coadjutors in them, and Roths- child humbugs them by giving liberally to ‘Obristian charities while he fleeces aristocratic spendthrifts, These are the “coming men” arrived that hold the balance of power. On the whole the world has more to gain from them than from the non-progressive influences Ahat have hitherto governed it. ~ + The Broadway Bank Forgery Case. Some two months ago, it will be remem- bered, the Broadway Bank paid a forged check for seventeen thousand five hundred dollars, purporting to have been drawn by the Board of Education of this city. There were several good reasons why the bank should not have been made the dupe of the forger. There were three false signatures to the check, those of the President and Clerk of the Board of Education ‘and the chairman of the finance committee. Whe check was not a genuine one, but only a lithograph of those used by the Board, and , shorter than the originals. It was for an unu- ‘ually large amount, and was made payable to bearer, ® very rare thing with checks issued by the Board. The moment it was seen among the returned checks by the auditing clerk of the Board it was discovered by him to bea forgery. All this proves great incompetency or careless- ness on the part of the bank people in cashing the cheek; and yet the managers of the bank object to paying back the money. Of course they are legally bound to do so under any cir- cumstances, but it is a piece of great imperti- nence on their part to endeavor to escape the consequences of their own negligence, and to throw the loss upon the Board of Education, or, in other words, upon the taxpayers of the city.

They extol ‘the passage in the speech of the Emperor on the open- ing of the Reichsrath, in which the Cabinet of Vienna accepts with resignation and without afterthought the facts which, during the last two years, have dealt such rude blows on the empire of the Hapsburg.

Sr, Perensaurc, May 23, 1867. ‘There was a grain of truth, if not more, in the rumor that circulated a few weeks since in the Continental journals to the effect that Russia proposed to take hor pay for her American possession in iron-clads. I am enabled from good authority to state, as I have already telegraphed you to-day, that the United States have offered for sale to the Russian government the celebrated double-turreted monitor Miantonomob, which vis- ited the Baltic ports last yoar, and which 1s still, im European waters; a fifty gun frigate, whose name I cannot now give, and two of the intended to be swift twenty-gun cruisers equipage, &c,, prepared for service. The Russian gov- ernment bas taken the proposition into consideration, and, if Lam not mistaken, is now negotiating on the terms, Precisely how much Uncle Sam proposes to de- duct for these ships from the $7,200,000 to be paid the Russian government Iam not in a position to state; but I understand the bargain will be a favorable one to this government, Wo can spare the ships, and Russia certainly noeds them in the event of a general European contest, which has just been postponed, but not forever. The “sick man” is manifesting some vigor—at all events on paper—and there seems to be an inclination no longer to put off the settiement of that vexed Eustern question, Luxemburg is out of the way, for this year, at least. Now it is time to reach some conclusion in regard to the fate of the Christian population in the East of Europe. The straggle in Candia excites a more intense interest than ever before. Omar Pacha, with a powerful army, has commenced again the task of suppressing a revolution, which official reports from Constantinopie have again and again declared entirely crushed out. If Christian reports be true, he has succeeded thus far no better than cruel but rhetorical predecessors, whose victories were always on paper. Ina vigorous effort to penetrate into the mountain stronghold of the patri- ote he was badly defeated after two long days’ strug- gle, and fell back on the plains again with just strength enough left todeclare to bis government that he was successful at every point. The farkish government in- forms the world through its embassies, tuat Omar Pacha will now at once proceed to crush out the last vestige of the rebellion, which he is doing by burning villages, put. ting to death unarmed men, and devastating the land as far as he may reach. ‘hose outrages have highly incensed not only the Russian people, but the government, and a renewed effort will be made to bring the subject before the European Powers in the same style as the Luxemburg question was presented, in order that a speedy and final settlement of the danger- ous affair may be reached. Russia is justly interested in pushing forward the question, and she is determined that somo understand- ing in the matter shall be obtained. If the European Powers cannot give attention to it she will, The ap- proaching alliance between the King of the Greeks and a member of the imperial family of Russia will still more closely interest Russia in Eastern affairs, as Turkey be- gins to menace Greece itself for the active sympathy it pest fan= the straggle of the Christrans againat their tional oppressors. ‘Ail these facts give a dark hue to the horizon of the future, What may come of it no one can more than ture, But it looks so threatening that Russia does herself op the sea by the addition of i men-of-war, built on the latest and best principles, and superior to any other of their ciass in the world over. The Miantonomoh 1s confessedly the most formidable veasei in Europe, both from her offensive and defensive powers, and alone is more than a match for the best tron- clad which any European netion possesses. She could |, solid work anywhere, and would be worth a fleet of Turkish tron-clads. The frigate to be bought, I pre- sume, is one of our best powerful (No. 2) vessels and good: for general service on account of her poworful batteries. The swift cruisers, carrying twenty heavy guas would sweep the sca of commerce, eliminate all smaller vessels from the problem, and ully take to their heels wnea they could not fight Sucb a little squadron would be of immense service to Russia in case of war in which apy naval Power wore involved against her, and one can readily Comprenend why the proposed bar- gain is not looked upon here with anything but favor. When che negotiations, which are not likely to be prolonged, are conciuded I shall send details at once by the cabie. ‘The negotiations for the purchase of the movable property of the Russian-American Far Company by the United States seem to be aca standstill. General Clay has.asked tor an “account of stock" from the company ; bat as it is not known what sales have been eilected in the territory since last year, the company is unable just now to give the desired mformation, As it will take some time to obtain the facts from Russian America, It 1s likely that the purchase will not be concluded for some time to coate, unless a conditional sale be effected. Tt has not proved ab easy matter to arrange all the do- tails of the transfer of property. There are several up- settled questions yet under consideration between the government of Russia and the company, upon which, °n & measure, the basis of sale of the movable property must be determined. The government clams certain things as its own which the company demands pay for; and va the other hand, too, the company places in its assets articles which clearly belong to the government. The arrangement {s being periected as rapidly as porst Die, and will doubtiess prove tolerabiy satisfactory to tue company, The mterests of tle company, existing for so many years, have in some way become interwoven with the rights of the crown, and it requires the sbarp- est among them to trace the lines of separation. The company’s stock still retains its inflated position, and somebody is bound to come to grief in the matter when the terms of settlement ara polished. It ts quoted at 180, but from all Tcan learn the goveramont will not pay wore than 100, if even that amoun', for it, and the balance, if it comes out at ali, most be drawn from Uncle Sam—a probability not at all encouraging to the stook- holders if they did but know the truih, Up to the moment I write no officers have been derig- nated by the Ministry to proceed io the territory to de- liver over the property to the United States. de cision must be soon reached, because, as I learn, the path= 4 is to be delivered over to ihe United S ates on the 15th of September next, at sitka In consequence of the vastness of the labors to be performed these Commissionors, they arv expected to spend the winter in the Terrivory and retura to hurope next year, The American Commissionors will doubtless find themselves compelled to wintor in that region, possibly on a fish and canned milk diet, and will emerge only the early part of next summer.

SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO ThE HERALD: Quenerano, Mexico, May 26, ) Via Ganvestox, June 10, 1867. | f Generai’ Lopez, why let the liberal troops intothe city resoives three thousand gold ounces ($48,000) for his treachery; Tho following chiefs are” prisoners with Maximilian:—Miramon, captured in the streets shortly after the surrender of tho city; Mejia, Castillo, Casano- va, Goyon, Moreno, Alvena, Maximo Canypos and Saim- Salm. Im all, the officers captured amounted to: four hundred and fifty, No dispositioa has as yot been made of afaximilian and the buik of the band captured with him. General Mendez, however, was shot on Sunday, May 19. General Fseobedo had issued an order that all officers who should secrete themselves, and who failed to surrender within twenty-four Bours, woula be sum- marily shot when captured. General Mendez failed to give himself up, and was captured on Saturday night. He was shotearly on Sunday morning in the Alameda, He met his fate like a brave soldier, Colonel Maximo Campos, the Commander of Maxi- milian’s body guard, attempted to escapo with $4;000 when the surrender took place, He, too, was captured and immediately sbot. No other executions are known to have taken place, though it is suspected that many have been put to death, AU the French officers are missing. ‘The principal prisonors are confined together in» a church, Their quarters are very inefficient, and they are left without beds or anything to answer the most ordinary demands of the toilet. Maximilian. continues ill from dysentery. He hade very violent attack on the evening after the capture aud has been unwell since, The wife of Prince Salm-Salm, an American lady—née Agnes Le Clerg—closely related to President Johnson, made her way alone to San Luts Potosi to intercede with Prosident Juarez for her husband’s life as well as that of tho Emperor Maximilian. This lady has sped so far in her brave mission that yesterday, on her arrival hero from San Luis, herself, the Emperor and Prince Salm- Salm had a long interview with General Escobedo, and I have reason to believe that terms have been arranged by which the lives of most of the foreigners will be spared. General Miramon is expected to die of the wound he received in the endeavor to show the enemy fight on the day the city was betrayed. The surprise of the im- portalists was. complete. Everything was taken, and not one of the prominent chiefs escaped. The liberals deny that they are to pay for the betrayal. Scareely fitty houses were fired. ” Mont of the liberal troops have gone on to Mexico city; but General Escobedo and a strong garrison still remain in Querdfero, The roads are in a terrible state, not only from rob beries, but also murders, The official reports of Escobedo announce the death of Colonel Luis Carillo, of Toluca, and Colonel Miguet Palcopalacion. A few weeks before the capture of tne city quite an inspiriting ceremony took place in Querétaro, General Miramon, Mejia, Castillo and Mendez, with some others, decorated the Emperor with the Cross of Knight Com. mander of the Mexican Military Order, as a recognition of his personal bravery and self-sacrifice all through the campaign in the interior.
