The following special despatch to the Hezarp has been received from our corre- @pondent at Tashkend, Central Asia, by way of London :— Lonpon, July 18, 1873. The Henatp special correspondent at Tash- kend reports as follows, under date of July 2:—His Highness the Khan of Khiva has signed a convention with Russia, under which he agrees to pay to the government of His Majesty the Czar Alexander a sum of money equivalent to ten millions of roubles within ten years, and in virtue of which he is con- Girmed in possession of his throne. SOLID GUARANTEES OF CONQUEST. The Russian troops continue to occupy Kungrad.

The advantageous results to be expected from ‘the conversion of Khiva into an appendage to Asiatic Russia were pointed out in the following words by Captain Modraviev, a Russian officer, who was sent on a mission toa Khan of Khiva as early as the year 1819:— If we possessed Khbiva, the conquest of which ‘would not be dificult, the nomades of Central Asia ‘would dread our power, and a route for commerce ‘would be established by the Sind (Indus) and Amooderia (Oxus) to Russia. All the riches of Asia weuld then flow into our country, and we should see the brilliant projects of Peter the Great realized. Once masters of Khiva, many other States, including Bokhara, would become de- pendent upon us. In a word, Khiva is at this Moment an advanced post, opposed to the com- ‘merce of Russia with Bokhara and Northern India; but if subject to us the Khivan territory woul become a stronghold which would defend this commerce against the attacks of the tribes dis- “persed over Southern Asia. ‘he oasis, situated in the midst of an ocean of sand, would become the t of reunion of all the commerce of Asia, and ‘would shake, even to the centre of India, the enor- mous commercial preponderance of the dominators ‘of the sea. - ENGLAND.

Damaging Evidence as to Udderzook’s Guilt— His Propositions to a Relative and the Promise of “A Cool Thou- cand” for His Assistance. PHILADELPHIA, July 18, 1878, The mystery surrounding the horrible murder near Jennerville, in tha State, is gradually being made clear, and the evidence of guilt poimts more strongly against William B. Udderzook, now con- fined in the Westchester jail. His arrest in Balti- more and conveyance to the scene of the murder is iamiliar to all. Yesterday a strong document bearing on the case was produced by William Rhoades, a brother-in-law to the accused, which gives the outlines ofthe plot of the murder and sheds a faint clew as to the identity of the mur- dered man, whose name is undoubiedly Gozs. The following is the substance of the evidence produced by Rhoades, whici is a letter received from Udder- zook, dated Baltimore, Decomper, i872. it reads :— Friexp Sam—I have something of importance that must bedone by word of mouth. “Please don't let any ono know of our communication, but as soon as you read this mount your horse and come to Oxiord. Take the mora- ing train for Baltimore. When you come in Baltimore inquire for Duke & Brother's planing mill. This mi is right across the street from where you get out cars. Tamemploye. in said mill, and am there evs day.” You will arrive at one o'clock. You must take the noxttram for Oxford, wlach is at half-past two. That will give us one hour and a half, which will be sufficient for us to arrange one of the finest plans that you have heard of. THERE 18 A COOL THOUSAND DOLLARS IN TT, and there is nothing to prevent us from getting it This is withoutadoubt, Do not buy your ticket at Oxford, but pay your fare on the car; do not let a soul know where yougo. Icannot explain further until [ seo you. Do not inil to come. Drop everything at once, as you can make the trip pay ina few hours. Thave no person in confidence with ine and now propose to take you, and you will find it the best day’s work that youever dia. I will give you the tull explanations when I'see you, and I'm sure the (d- insurance men won't know or care about the mater, | Bring this letter with you, Your ex- penses will only ‘ours, Very respect! W. i UDDERZ00K, P. §,—Be firm, be true. Rhoades would not have produced this damaging letter bad he not been aware that he was suspected by the people of Jennerville as being an accom- plice of Udderzook. He also made a statement to the Sheriff yesterday, in which he said that on July 1 last Udderzook came to his farm and desired him to hitch up his teamand take him to Jennerviile, as he said “there was $1,000 in it,” and that that sum would be guaranteed him (Rhoades) for his trouble. When asked where the money was to come from Udderzook freplied, confidently, “Right here; I have toted it to Jennervils.” Upon being farther questioned, as Khyades says, Udderzook told him the whole plan. He knew a man who had plenty of money with him, tn Jenner- ville, and, in his own words, “was a drunken cuss,” and could be easily got out of the way, if Rhoades would only help to get him in his wagon and carry on AD grove, There they would take him out an “Dose” HIM, and nothing more would be heard or said about the matter, as the man was Sick ail the time and had no acquaintances nearer than New York.” Rhoades said he expostulated with Udderzook and urged him, for his own sake, as well as that of his family, to drop the whole thing, To these en- treaties he replied, “If you won’t hefp me I might as well do it myself and bury the money. Ihave been to a good deal of troubie about this matter, and there a; the legst bit of danger. I'll doit any way, and pocket the money myself.” Rhoades says he still adhered to his resolution and had nothing more to de with his brother-in-law, and was fully convinced in his own mind that Udder- zook knew something about the murder as soon as he heard of it. The feeling of the people of Westchester and Jennerville is intense against Udderzook, and the probability of his living to undergo a trial 1s rather slim, unless the Sheriff takes proper measures to prevent the people taking the law into their own hands, Since his arrival at the West- chester jail he nas become morose and gloomy, and speaks only to his wile and children. He at first denied all knowledge of the murder, but has time and again let fail from his tongue facts which go far to slow that he is using deception. Representatives of the Con- tinenal and Travellers’ Life Insurance companies have visited the ground where the body of the murdered man was buried. They jad a photo- graph of the missing man, Goss, and it is the general po iscnd aah all who had seen the body when first found that it was the same man whose photograh they were looking at. of the Murdered Man Iden- tified. ALTIMORE, July 18, 1879. The authorities and Hgéace agents to-day iy again exhumed the bod, the murdered man at Penningtonville, ana the remains were fully iden: tifled as those of Goss by people who knew him ti timately during his liletime, The seal rin also identified beyond all question as belongin, Goss. Udderzook was interviewed at Westchester to-day and showed great nervousness when told that the body ot the murdered man was suspected to be that of Goss. The trial of Udderzook will commence at Westchester October 27. ee ANOTHER QUAKER CITY TRAGEDY.

The Queen ot England waa there; 80 WAS WINDSOR CASTLR; also an imposing array of cavairy, artillery and in- jantry. And the accessorics to these several shows were the matchless rural charms of Engiand—a vast expanse of green sward, walled in by venera- ble forest trees, and beyond them glimpses of hills clothed in Suminer vegetation. Upon such a thea- tre a bloodless batule was fought and an honorable victory won by trained soldiers who have not always been carpet knig!its, but whose banners bear the names of many historic fights. ‘To all intents and purposes Engiand is now DONE WITH THE SHAK, True, his engagement is not yet completed, tor he is still billed to perform at one or two places; but curiosity is becoming sated, ana he will hardly draw as good houses as heretot Whenever a star has to go to the provinces it is a bad sign. The poor man is weil nigh worn out with hard work, The other day he was to have performed before the Duke of Buccleuch and was obliged to send an exouse. Since then he failed of bis engagement at the Bank of England, He does not take rest even when he might. He has a telegraphic apparatus in his apartments in Buckingham Palace, and it ts said that he sits up till far ynto the night TALKING WITH HIS CAPITAL OF PERSIA by telegraph. He 1s so fascinated with the wonder- ful contrivance that he cannot keep away from it. No doubt it is the only home-like thing the exile finds in the hard, practical West, for it is the next of kin to the enchanted carpets that figure in the romances and traditions of his own land, and which carry the wanderer whither he will about the eartn, circumscribing the globe in the twink- ling of an eye, propelled by only the force of an unspoken wish, GOSSIP ABOUT THE SHAH, This must be a dreary, unsatisfactory country to him, where one’s desires are thwarted at every turn. Last week he woke up at three in the morn- ing and demanded of the Vizier on watch by his bedside that the ballet dancers be summoned to dance before him, The Vizier prostrated himself upon the floor and said :— “O, King of Kings, light of the world, source of human peace and contentment, the glory and ad- miration of the age, tarn away thy sublime counte- nance, let not thy fateiul frown wither the slave; for behold the dancers dwell wide asunder in the desert wastes of London, and not in many hours could they be gathered together.” The Shah could not even speak, he was so as- tounded with the novelty of giving a command that could not be obeyed. He sat stilla moment, suffering, then wrote in his tablets these words:— “Mem.—Upon arrival in Teheran, let the Vizier have the coffin which has just been finished for the late general of the household troops—it will save time.” He then got up and set his boots ontside the door tobe blacked and went back to bed, calm and comfortaole, making no more to-do about giving away that costly coM™n than I would about spending a couple of shillings. THE LESSON OF HIS JOURNEY. If the mountains of money spent by civilized Europe in entertaining the Shah shall win him to adopt some ef the mild and merct:ul ways that pre- vail in Christian realms it will have been money well and wisely laid out. If he learns that a throne may rest a8 firmly upon the affections of a people as upon their fears; that charity and justice may go hand in hand without detriment to the authority of the Sovereign; that an enlarged liberty granted to the subject need not impair the power of the monarch; if he learns these things Persia will be the gainer by his journey, and the money whicn Europe has expended in entertaining him will have been profitably invested. That THE SHAH NEEDS A HUNT OR TWO in these directions 18 shown by the language of the following petition, which has just reached him from certain Parsees residing here and in India :-—- THE PETITION. 1. A heavy and oppressive poll tax, called the Juzia, 18 Linposed upon the remnant of the ancient Zoroastrian race now residing in Persia, A hun- dred years ago, when the Zoroastrian popula- tion Was 30,000 families, and comparatively well-to-do, the tax was only 250 toomans; now, when there are scarcely six thousand souls alto- gether, and stricken with poverty, Li have to pay 300 toomans. In addition to the crushing effect of this tax, the government ofMicials oppress these poor people in enforcing the tax. y. A Parsee desirous ol buying landed property is obliged to pay twenty per cent on the value of the property as fee to the Kazee and other authorities. 3. When a Parsee dies any member of his family, no matter however distant, who may have pre- viously been converted to Mohammedaaism, claims and obtains the whoie property of the deceased, to the exclusion of all the rightful heirs. In enforcing this claim the convert is backed and supported by government fonctionaries, 4. When @ Parsee returns to Persia from a for- eign country he is harassed with all sorts of exac- vions at the various places he has to pass through in Persia. 5, When any dispute arises whether civil or criminal, between a Mohammedan and a Parsee, the oficiais invariably side with the former, and the pr bante | of one Mohammedan—no matter how false on its very face—receives more credit than that of a dozen or any number of Parsee witnesses. lf a Mohammedan kills a Parsee he ts only fined about eight toomans, or four pounds sterling; but, on the contrary, if a Parsee wound: murders Mohamme i is not only cut to pieces himself, all his sey, and children are put to the mes all the Parsees living in the same street are harassed in @ variety of ways. The Parsees are prevented from en them- selves well and from riding @ horse or donkey. Ne matter, even if he were ill and obliged to ride, he is compelled to dismount in the pres- ence of @ Mohammedan rider, and is forced to walk to the place of his destination. The Parsees not allowed to trade in European articles, nor are they allowed to deal in domestic produce, as grocers, dyers, or oilmen, tailors, dairymen, &c., on the ground that their touch would pollute th arti and supplics and make them unfit for the use of Mohammedans, 6, The Parsees are often insulted and abused in every way by the Mohammedans, and their children are stolen or forcibly taken away from them by the Mohammedans. ese children are concealed in Mohammedan houses, their names are changed and they are forced to become Mohamme- dans, and when they refuse to embrace the Moham- medan faith og! are maltreated in various ways. When a man is forcibly converted, his wife and pag bo aiso forced to join him as Mohammedans, The Mobammedans desecrate the sacred places of worship of the Zoroastrians and the places for the disposal of their dead. 7. In general the Parsees are heavily taxed in various Ways, and are subjected to great oppres- sion. In consequence of such persecution the Par- see population of Persia has, during this eatery, considerably decreased and is now 80 sthall that It consists Of @ few thousand families only. It ts pos- sible that tuose persecutios arg, practised, on tha Zoroastrian inhabitants of Persia wit! knowledge of His Majesty the | og ithomt the THR INGENIOUS BAKON REUTER. Itis whispered that the Shah's European trip Was not suggested by the Shan himselt, but by the | noted telegraphic newsman, Baron Reuter, People who pretend to know say that Reuter began life very poor; that he was an energetic spint and improved such opportunities as (eit in his way; that he learned several languages, and finally be- came a European guide, or courier, and employed himself in conducting all sorta of foreigners through ali sorts of countries and wearing them out with the usual frantic system of sight-seeing. That Was & good education fer him. It taught him VARIOUS WAYS OF TURNING A PENNY; it also gave him an intimate knowledge of all the various routes of travel and taught him how cer- tain long ones might be shortened, By and by he got some carrier pigeons and ostablished & news express, which necessarily pros- pered, since it furnished journals and com. mercial people with all matters of importance considerably in advance of the mails, When raik ways came into vogue he obtained concessions which enlarged his facilities and still enabled him to defy competition, He was ready for the tele- graph and seized that, to ind now for years “REUTER'S TRLEGRAMS" has stood in brackets at the head of the telegraphic column of all Kavopeau journals. Ue became rich; he bought telegraph lines and built others, pur- chased ® second hand German baronetoy, and finally sold out his telegraphic property to his gov- ernment for $3,000,000 and was out of business for once. Bus BR COULD NOT STAY OUT. After building himself a sort of a patnce, he looked around for fresh game, singled out the Shah of Persia and “went for him," as the his- toriam Josephus phrases it. Re got an enormous “concession” from him and shen conceived the admirable idea of exhibiting & Shah of Persia in the capitals of Europe and thus advertising his concession before needful capitalists, It was a sublimer idea than any that avy showman’s brain has ever given birth to; No Shah had ever volun- tarily travelled in Kurope before; but then no Shah had ever fallen into the hands of a European guide beiore, THE FAT “UONCESSION.'? The Baron's ‘concession’ is @ financial curiosity, It allows him the aole right to build railways in Persia for the next seventy years; also street rail- roads; gives all the land necessary, free of charge, for double tracks and fifty or sixty yards on each side; all importations of matirtel, &c., free of duty; all the Baron’s exports free of duty alao. The Baron may appropriate and work all mines (except those of the precious. metals) tree of charge, THR SHAH TO HAVE FIFTEEN PER CRNT of the profits. Any private mine may be ‘“gobbied’’? (the Persian word is akdamarish) by the Baron if it has not been worked during five years previously, The Baron has the exclusive privilege of making the most of all government forests, he giving the Shah fifteen per cent of the profits (rom the wood sold, Aftey a forest is re- moved, the Baron is vo ve preferred before all other purchasers if he wants to buy the land. The Baron alone may DIG WELLS AND CONSTRUCT CANALS, and he is to own all the land made productive by sach works, The Barun is empowered to raise $30,000,000 on the ca) i stock for working purposes, and whe Shah agrees to pay seven per cent interest on It; and Persia is wholly unencumbered with debt. The Shah hands over te the Baron the management of his customs for twenty-years, and the Baron en- gages to pay for this privilege $100,000a year more than the Shah now receives, so the Baron means to wake up that sleepy Persian commerce. After the filth year the Baron 1s to pay the Slah an additional sixty per cent of the profits, If HIS HEAD IS STILL A PORTION OF HIS PERSON then, The Baron is to have first preference in the establishment ofa bank. The Baron has preference in establishing gas, road, telegraph, mill, manufac- turing, forge, pavement and all such enterprises. The Shah is to have twenty per cent of the profits arising from the railways. Finaily, the Baron may sell out whenever he wants to. Itis a good “concession” in its way. It seems to make the Shah say:—“Run Persia at my ex- pense and give me a fifth of the profits,’ One’s first impulse is to envy the Baron; but, after all, ldo notknow, Some day, if things do not go to suit the Shah, he may say:—“There is no head I admire so much as this Baron’s; bring it to me on a plate.” ‘ DEPARTURE OF THE IMPERIAL CIRcvs. We are all sorry to see the Shah leave us, ana yet are giad on his account. We have had all the fun and he all the fatigue, He would not have lasted much longer here, I am just here reminded that the only way whereby you may pronounce the Shah's title correctly is by taking a pinch of snui, The result will be “t-Snat?”” MARK TWALN.
