TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALB, Sr. Perersnuna, Dec. 23, 1872. The Russian World, a newspaper published in this city, states in its issue this morning that His "Excellency Lord A.

Russia's Relations to Khanaies. In St. Petersburg political dnd diploiatic circles the Asiatic question has become decidedly the most interesting topic of the day, both to the English and Russians, as the policy now adopted by the Ozar's government will greatly influence their future relations in the East, To allay the fears oxpressed by a section of the English, the Russian Oficial Gazette has just lately published the text of the treaties of commerce entered into with several of tie Khans of Asia by the representatives of His Majesty Alexander, and has given a summary of the events which led to the steps taken by Russia to ensure the protection of her subjects and the development of her Eastern trade. The attempt to disturb England in her pos- sessions in India is treated us “an act of folly,” not only on account of the «difficulty and almost impos- sibility of success, but even in case of a victorious Russian issue, as but restoring the Indian Empire to the state of barbarism irom which English rule has rescued it, whereas mutual and friendly co- operation in the work of civilization is justiy held to be not only for the advantage of both nations but of the civilized world. RUSSIAN TRADE AND ITS PROTECTION BY TREATIES, Since the establishment of security in the ay ace of Russian Khirgizi, a security only obtained by a considerable accession of territory, Russian trade | has considerably increased, notwithstanding the additional duties and fines levied on Russian mer- chants, contributions which amounted to double those levied on the Mussulmans. The vexatious persecutions to which Kussian merchants were ex- posed induced the Russian government to author- ize General Kaufinan, the Governor of Turkistan, to obtain treaties of commerce with the Khan of Khokand Tea of the Khanates], the Emir of Bou- khara, and Yakoub Bek, tie immediate chief of the Seven Towns—Djita Schara, The conditions of these treaties are identical, but the policy of the Khan of Khiva is said to be antagonistic to the realization of the anticipated advantages. -THE RUSSO-ASIATIC TRADE TREATIES, A copy of the treaty which Russia has concluded with Khokand—and which is furnished—will suf- fice for an understanding of the other instruments. The treaty reads as follows :— First—Every town and village of Khokand, without ex- ception, to be open to Russian merc as all Russian markets will be to the merchants ot Khokand. Second—Russian merchants to have the right to establish caravansaries wherever they think fit, and in which they will have the exclusive right of housing their merchan- dise. The same right to enjoyed by Khokand mer- it chants in the towns in Russia, agian merchants to have the right to have the.

Twenty-two cardinals were present in obedience to the call of the chief pastor of tho Church, The Pontiff delivered an allooution, in the course of which he said the Church was still sorely per- secuted. The purpose to destroy her was shown in the acts of the Italian government, which com- pelled the ctergy to serve in the army and imposed heavy taxes on Church property. He solemnly protested against the bill now pending in the Italian Parliament for the suppression of religious corporations, and declared that title to Property acquired by this means would be null and void, He repeated bis censures of those who encroached on the rights of the Church, and de- nounced Germany, “where the pitfalls of open violence, calumny and ridicule were employed to destroy the Church by men who, ignorant of religion, sought to define its dogmaa,” The alloeution concludes with a protest against the Clergy Dotation bill recently passed by the Spanish Cortes, and a general condemnation of the Armenian schism, SHIPWRECKS.

THE STEAMSHIP GERMANY. Rumored Loss of the Vessel. Lonpon, Dec, 24—1 A. M. It was reported at midulght that the steamship Germany, of the Allan line, was totally wrecked yesterday. No details were given, and up to this hour the report has not been confirmed. It is pos- sible that the rumor has originated in the similarity o1 the names borne by the Allan steamship and the Liverpool packet, the Germania, previously re- ported lost off the mouth-of the Gironde. [According to the latest files of the London Snips ping Gazette, the Allan steamship Germany was to have sailed from Liverpool, December 17, for Havana and New Orleans—Ep.] j Mad so alt wah THE FIRE FIEND.

The Russians allege that while the above recited negotiations were Gaskins tofavorable issues at- tempts were made to introduce regular and friendly communications between Khiva and Russia. For some years, it is said, Russian fisher- men and traders had been attacked, robbed and carried of as slaves to the Khan of Khiva, who protected the pirates and refused to give up his captives. Remonstrances were answered by con- temptuous silence or extravagant demands and the constant repetition of the oifence. In spite of the advice given him by the majority of his Ministers the Khan persisted in his course, nour- ishing tue belief that he was topographically un- assailable. The advance of the Russians into the steppes of Orenburg and on the eastern coasts of the Caspian, the. construction of Fort Alexander on the Isthmus of Manghishlak, the station at Krasnovodsk, at the entrance of the Guif of Balkhan, the ancient mouth of the Amau- Daria (Oxus) taught him that his position was not so impregnable as he had deemed it. Fort Alexander has put down the brigandage which he coun- tenanced, and is the rallying point of the Kirghisi tribes, who, through fear or.other motives, have Placed themselves under Kussian protection, THE RUSSIAN BASE. Krasnovodsk has become the base of Russian pif operations in case the Khan persists in his jostile attitude. NATIVE APPEAL TO THE RUSSIANS AND AFFECTING . INCIDENTS OF THE DIPLOMACY, Orie of the heads of the Abdallah tribe of the Turkomans, Artchek Khoudai Nazarow, a man of eminence among the Turkomans of the woghishlak, presented himself at Fort Alex- ander in January, 1872, He had just re- turnéd from Khiva, and was the bearer of several letters from the ve aed as risoners detained by the Khan. According to his account, on the first notice of the Russian military movements the convoked a council ot the chiefs of all nomad tribes to advise on the steps to be Nearly all were of opinion that it wouid be resh, and, fast, Impossible to resist. The desertion of several important tribes to the enemy on the first appearauce of the Russian troops, and the Khan’s inability to arm those who remained faith- dul and were willing to resist, appeared certain, AN INSINCERE MANOKUVRE AND ITS PUNISHMENT. In this extremity the Khan sent for the aged Ichan, of the Rt ee of the Manghishlak, Nour- Muhammed, held in deep vencration by his people, and who, at the moment, was present at Khiva, whence he was going to undertake a pilgrimage to Mecca wit! famliy. Artchek, who was the Ichan’s mupat pe eg ine accompanied his lost to the Souncil. The Khan received Nour-Muhammed most graciously. “Thy father,” said he, “was my father's best counsel- ; what shall Ido?” “Will ny counsels be vetter (han those yout have till now followed?

Artchek left Khiva soon afterwards, and, according to his account, he heard that the prisoners were to berestored immediately. Nothing of sort took place,.

A Plan of the Republics to Set - Cuba Free. ve r WASHINGTON, Dec. 23, 1872, Tho representativsé Of the South American re- publics at Washington have received from the newspapers the first intimation of the oMetial cor- respoadence passed between the governments of Colombia and San Salvador, proposing that a coall- tion be formed against Spain by the South Amert- can republics and the United States in order to force that Power to relinquish the Ever Faithful Isle. This correspondence includes & suggestion that @ money indemnity be offered to Spain for the surrender of Cuba, and, that negotiations be initiated to that effect through the representatives of the South American gov- ernments at Washington. It would seem strange that these Envoys have received no official infor- mation an this subject from their respective governments. An explanation for this may per- haps be found in the fact that your high oMicials are slow to decide and silt slower to move, and that newspapers were .n the present case ahead of the governments. THR MINISTER OF COLOMBIA says he was greatly surprised wher he saw the idea ofthe coalition first mooted in the HkRALp, and that hethas no advices reiating to it from his gov- ernment, though instructions for him tallying with the tenor of the publishea correspondence are probably \under way.

Peru could net enter into Mmendly negotiatfons with Spain, nor could she resume hos- tilittes against that Power as long as the armistice 4s in force. CHILE. Mr. Gonzalez, the Charge d!Affaires of Chile, says that he has heard nothing from his government with regard to negotiations to free Cuba from Spanish rule. He believed his government would take no such action for the present, at least. COLOMBIA AND SAN SALVADOR. The two leading South American Republics being out of the fleid, there would remain only Colombia and San Salvador to form the proposed coalition with the Unitea States, Spain looks upon Columbia as non est, and would, With characteristic inso- lence, spurn any proposition emanative from a government whose very existence she retuses to recognize.

THE UNITED STATES. A high official remarked, in conversation with your correspondent, that the United States would not depart from their traditional policy, which is to avoid alliances in every shape with foreign Powers.
