At our last accounts he was ct Kiachta, on the
borders Of the empire, where one Of the "ex-
ploring parties" we have mentioned are mus
tered. Meanwhile, the Emperor Of China had
acknowledged his inability to cope with the in
surgents, and appealed to this country, Great
Britain and Russia for succor. So far as we
are concerned the appeal was of course futile
England will take so long to make up her mind
and despatch troops to the scene Of action that
the conflict will probably be over before she
has come to determination. Russia is already
on the borders, asks for nothing better than an
opportunity to interfere, and could quell the
insurrection in a few weeks Opposed to such
miserable foes as the Chinese. the well-trained
bands Of Cossacks would be invincible, and the
kingdom, tapped at Kiachta, would be overrun
by the men of the north in few weeks
The mind loses itself in wonder when it is
suffered to speculate on such themes as the pro
bable results of Russian Intervention in China.
Forty thousand Cossacks-who could be taken
from the standing army Of Russia without being
missed-would not only restore the Emperor
and crush the rebels, but would retain the gov
eminent and the country in their own hands in
spite Of all the Chinese in the empire. Their
arrival at Pekin would be tantamount to the
conquest of China. Russia would thus come
into possession Of province containing about
one half the whole population of the globe.
Vast as are the Eastern possessions of England,
they would sink into the dimensions Of petty
colony when compared with the Russian pro-
vince of China. Added to his present domi-
Mons, the Car would find himself the sove-
reign of more than half the habitable earth; o
foe that could cope singly on equal terms with
all the other nations Of the world.
1t is many years since an able writer and
profound thinker announced that Russia was
destined to overrun Asia and raise that conti-
nent to its ancient rank in the world. What
ever events lie hidden in the womb oftime, it is
certain that the prediction will either be tri-
umphantly verified or clearly proven false
within short period. Either contingency will
be momentous. We are apt to contemplate
subject so remote without vestige of feeling
or passion: most Of our readers would see with
tolerable indifference the restoration OF the Chi
nese Emperor, or even the division Of Asia like
second Poland between the European powers.
They reserve their sympathies for subjects
nearer home. The United States, however,
cannot remain Indifferent to Russian progress
in Asia. With the inevitable project before us
Of a deadly struggle between despotism and
democracy, in which Russia will obviously re-
present the former and we the latter, every
movement which brings our future foe nearer to
cur doors is entitled to careful attention. 1t
may be that that great battle will be fought on
the Pacific.

journals dated at Paris, agree in representing the
existence Of q growing Indifference amongst the
members of the Chambers Of Deputies and Peers
towards the imperial dicta of the Emperor. 1t Is
also said that this feeling is entertained
by many leading Frenchmen, and that it has perva-
ded more than one Of the neighboring European
courts to such extent that the wrteran English
man we suppose-assumes that Louis Napoleon will
soon be a parrenu monarch in reality. The efiec'
tive strength of the Belgian army had been sane
toned at one hundred thousand men. The papers
contain what purports to be testamentary docu-
ment of Peter the Great Of Russia, which Is said to
foreshadow the dearest Eastern policy of that great
monarch In Holland the Internuncio of the Pope
and his adherents maintained that the late ecclesi-
astca arrangements Of his Holiness were quite &C
ceptable to the people, whilst the reformed church
and radical party as srenuousy asserted that his in
reference was repugnant to their consciences and
unendurable. Italy presented an appearance OF
calm. Railroad, finance, and commercial improve
ments met the daily attention of the court and cab
met of Spain.
By reference to the teegraphc synopsis Of the pro-
ceedings it will be seen that great excitement was
yesterday produced in the Episcopal Convention at
Baltimore, by Bishop Whittingham's letter condemn

The Methodist Episcopal Conference held two SEES
sions yesterday at their church in Allen street.
During the afternoon session the charges preferred
by the Rev. Mr.. Pease against the committee, (be-
fore which he had been trial for immortality, &c)
for infringing certain rules of discipline of the M. E.

was commenced, and win probably occupy some
