      sttiv ^ ggSSss sa ^^ s ^ jas-s--. ' * T * 3 ? £ ^ hus vott see that Russia must try to don & SJ & S ^^ SK * only to be the master of the tlrid Wd bmtif she only desires to live . To dominate Asia , . i . nn » must become themaster of Europe—partly by conquest , rt ' rfly Hi ? by preponderance—and to ensure the autocracy over iaia a & as well as over Europe , the United States must be

      ¦ CHikewked in their growth and development of power ; and it iiii * tin * the law of nature that a people must either progress d decldecline , to check the progress of American power , Ameaa ma must be crushed . Thus you are brought by the deveinmeoment of vour national existence into the compass of iiissiaissian hatred and Russian ambition . Either you or j : jssiajssia must fall . Ton become for the world what Germany fi for Ifor Europe . Without the freedom and independence of mingamgary , Europe can never become free : but without the ;<; edo ; edom and independence of Germany , it cannot remain V » - « . So , without raining your power , Russia could not nmahmain the master of Asia and Europe , should she even c ccetcceed to establish her sway . Germanv is the heart of

      uroprope . Ton , by having extended your dominion to the kucifiicific , become the heart of the world . Great powers u nst nst have broad views in their policy . You cannot more k icomcompass your activity and your policy within the narrow r rclercla of domestic life . This situation must he comprenndended , or else notwithstanding your prodigious growth ) ) ur ) ur very existence will but prove a short dream , a passing j nsonsode in the history of nations . Let t h ' s be remembered jvviy tout politicians who like to press your gigantic limbs iitoito the dresa which you wore ia your infant age , and let b his his be remembered by the public opinion of tbe people , r rhic-hich always is in advance to feel the exigencies of time . I tut tut to pursue my deduction . The double direction of Itusi ianian ambition , which I have explained , imposed upon her t he ie necessity of desire to conquer Constantinople . "Withle she

      i ut mt the conquest of Constantinop can never carry the 2 leaiea of Panelaviam , because it is in European Turkey that > . s ds dwelling the stock of the Sclavonic race , from Bulgaria , » iveiver Serbia and Bosnia down to Montenegro , and across , hwhrough Roumelia . Without the conquest of Constant !* r lomopVe Russia cannot cantrol the Mediterranean Sea ; with-: lutrat that she cannot become a maritime power , and without i iiecbecoming a maritime power she cannot rule the world . ! Thlhe position of Constantinople is such that she is the key i to to the dominion of Europe as well as of Asia for Russia . i tfaffapoleon already has said it , and he was , to be sure , a i mimiwhty genius . It is , therefore , that the conquest of Constastantinopie is the hereditary leading idea of Russian policy , ft , ft would be not without interest to sketch the history of ft'itusshstep by step advancing toward that aim by war

      , anond by emissaries , by diplomatic corruption , and by corrurupied diplomacy , from the time of Mehemet Baltadpi , of Bueursed memory " through all subsequent ^ ars—at the Irdreaties of Kutskuk , Kajnadje , Balta , Liaan , Jassey , BiBuiarest , Ackenmar , Adrianople , Uukian , Iskelessy , down toto the treaty as to the Dardanelles and the Bosphorus , and toto the treaty of commerce , which made two-thirds of Cor .-Btstantinople itself , in their daily bread , di-pendent upon R Russian wheat , to the amount of thirty-five millions of p ' piastres a year , while Turkish wheat is selling in the stores oi of Asia Minor . By each of these treaties Russia advanced iiits frontiers and " pressed more closely Constantinople v within its iron grasp , with such persevering consistency I persuing her aim that even in other political transactions , s apparently unconnected with Turkey , it was constantly this

      s aim which she viewed . As for instance at the peace of Tilsit , ; when she surrendered continental Europe to the momentary < dominion of 2 fapoleon , provided Turkey was consigned to 1 her . And still she did not succeed , and so still Stamboul i stands a barrier to her dominion over the world . And why i did she not succeed ? Because the European powers , conscious of the fact that the conquest of Constantinople is so much as their own submission to Russia , have in tbe last instance always prevented it , in uniting to treat the question of the Orient as a question of life and death for their own independence . And—mark well , gentlemen—in consequence of the geographical situation of her dominions , and being also sovereign of Hungary , it was chiefly tho House of Austria which was considered to be and cherished as the great bulwark against Russia , charged especially with a

      jealous guardianship of Turkish rights . And , indeed , had the hous ° of Austria , comprehending the conditions of her existence , attached Hungary to herself by respecting ber independence and her constitutional rights , and developed the power of her hereditary dominions by placing herself npon a constitutional basis , she could have maintained her respectable position of guardianship for centuries . Russia was aware of that fact . When Catherine visited the newly conquered Crimea , Potemkin raised to her honour a triumphal arch , with the motto , " Hereby is the road to Constantinople . " Czar . Nicholas has since learned that it ia by Vienna rather . Russia , therefore , decided to get rid o this obstacle , and to convert it out of an obstacle into a tool . A direct conquest would have been dangerous , because it would have met the opposition oi all Europe .

      Russia therefore tried it first by monetaty influence , and had pretty well advanced in it . Metternich himself was a pensioner to Russia . But the watchful independent spirit of constitutional Hungary still hindered the practical result of this bribery ; and seeing , by our reform laws of 184 S , an independent national government established , and the constitutional spirit strengthened by substituting Democracy for Aristocracy , she determined to destroy the power of the house of Austria by destroying Hungary . Austriahad the destination to be a bulwark protecting Constantinople from Russia ; now it becomes the high road to Constantinople and an auxiliary army to Sank it for Russia . —Austria never more can be restored ; she is not only doomed—she is dead . So skill , no consideration , can revive her . Having previously broken every tie of popular

      a & ction and of allegiance , she cannot vegetate but by Russian aid , turning in return in obedience around her . Let the reliance upon that aid relax , and there is no power on earth which could prevent the nations groaning under her oppressing and degrading tyranny , to shatter to pieces the rotten building of her criminal existence ; and , as to my nation , I declare solemnly that should we be left forsaken and alone to fight once more the battle of deliverance for tbe world , and should we in consequence of it succeed in that honourable strife , we will rather choose to be Russians than subject to the house of Austria ; rather submit to open manly force of the Czar than to the heart-revolting peijury of tbe Hapsburgh ; rather be ruled directly by tbe master than submit to the shame to be ruled by his underlings . The fetters of force may be broken once , but the affection

      of a morally offended people to a perjurons dynasty can never be restored . Russia we hate with inconceivable hatred , but the bouse of Hapsburgh we hate and despise . " After predicting that war must inevitably ensue between Turkey and Russia , in which , if tbe Turks were beaten , the balance of power would be overthrown , and the Russian autocrat become the master of the world , he concluded as follo ws : — "The only question is , will the United States remain indifferent at the overthrow of the balance of power on earth ? No , they will not , they cannot remain indifferent . Their being reared on the coast of the Pacific , and that being brought to an immediate conflict with Russian autocratic tendencies in Asia , answers * No . ' Their Republican principles being about to be brought into a clashing conflict with Russian Absolutism ' answers 'So . * The

      , roica of the people clustering in thundering manifestations around my own humble self , answers ' So . ' Ton yourself , Sir , in the name of the people of Syracuse , which is but one tune in the mighty harmony of all the people ' s "voice , have told me ' So . ' Before these assurances , upon the conditions of your destiny , 1 rely , and I venture numbly to advise you to strengthen yout fleet in the Mediterranean . Sir , look for a port of your own , not depending npon the smiles of petty Italian despots , where the stripes and stars of America will be able to protect the principles of free ships , free goods , and raise the people ' s manifest will to the degree of diplomatical pronunciation npon the platform of the presidential election . " This speech was received with repeated bursts of prolonged cheering . -

      INDIA AND CHINA . THE OVERLAND MAIL . THE BURMESE TTaE . Burmese reward for ike heads of the British—Rumoured Re * volution at Ava—Burmese attempt to recapture Marlaban—The cholera cutting off the British . Onr town edition of last Saturday contained an express from JIarsaillea , per electric telegraph , bringing later intelligence from the seat of war . We now subjoin particulate obtained from the Indian papers . We have intelligence from Bombay to the 12 th nit . Accounts from Rwgoon state that no further collision with the enemy had taken place . Cholera was abating ; the place was getting into some order and cleanliness ; Burmese labourers were flocking in in search of employment , and slad to wort at twn annas

On the other hand , flie rations for European troops were dear , scarce , and of bad quality , principally consisting of ill-cured pork , no beef being as yet obtainable . Temporary wooden barracks were expected from Jlonlmein , but , meanwhile , the troops were without proper shelter , though the moosoon was daily expected ; Sotting is finown regarding the number or position of the Burmese troops in the neighbourhood of Rangoon . Some accounts state the force of the enemy * at 25 , 000 men ; others say that the troops that were assembled for the defence of Rangoon disbanded themselves on its fall , and that the ex-Governor had only 100 or 200 men remaining with him . The influx of Burmese labourers to

      Rangoon appears to favour tbe latter supposition ; if the Burmese were in force in the vicinity they would drive off the inhabitants , as they did last war . , j Governor of Rangoon has invited tenders for tho neads of the British forces , according to prices as per anff namely , fifty rupees for the head of a white man , and thirty rupees for the head of a black man . The offer nas proved a strong inducement to the Burmese , who go to work desperately to earn the rewards .

      Latest News From The Australian Diggings...

      LATEST NEWS FROM THE AUSTRALIAN DIGGINGS . Bv the arrival of the merchant ship Vimm , Captain Seatby , we have intelligencefromthegold minesthree weeks later than any yet published . Sew mmes were being daily discovered . The yield at Sydney and Port Phillip was daily increasing , and thousands were flocking to toe mines . A vigorous stream of emigration was setting in from California and the South Sea Islands , and hundreds of American diggers might be seen walking in the streets of Sydney working towards the gold regions . The new Settlement of Canterbury was deserted Wellington and Auckland were neatly in the game condition , and at Van Diemen ' e land a similar result was expected . Flour was down to from £ 10 to £ 12 per ton retail , and several hundred tons from Chili had been sold by the cargo as low as £ 710 s . Meat , tea , sugar , and other articles of domestic consumption were abundant and cheap .

      The agricultural interests had not suffered-the pastoral interests , especially in tho Sydnej district—but at Port Phillip labour was getting extremely scarce , and it was feared that shepherds' wages in Port Phillip would run up to an mvprecedeutly high rate . . The " Srdney Morning Herald" has a cheering account of the state of tbe colony . No workman need starve at home while comfort and independence await him in Australia . The admirable order which has all aloag be maintained at our diggings , not by military restraint , but i-y the good sense and moral rectitude of the great mass of the disgtrB themselves , is indeed a jast cause of pride to the colonists , and ought to encourage thousands of our fellow subjscts at home to come over and help us . We need their help . Our flocks and herds are increasing , while the labour market is exhausted . Wages have consequently advanced at rates averaging on the whole somewhat about thirty per cent . We have ample employment for many thousands of emigrants , provided they be men who really give a good day ' s work for agooiaay'svragfs . Tt ' e do not want idlers : neither do we want

      any more of that swanmujr class ot young gentlemen who can do nothing hut sit on a stool and handle a quill ; of these we have always more than enough . But persons accustomed to hard work , whether mechanical or rural ; and persons having monev to invest , whether of large amount or small , will find in Sew South Wales a finer opening than any other uart of the world piesents , or than was ever before presented . £ et them remember that for mildness and salubrity our climate cannot be surpassed ; that our soil is capable of producing all that man requires for sustenance , rnd ' mostof the luxuries which he prizes ; and at the time our gold fields were discovered the population of less than 200 , 000 souls possessed above 190 , 000 horses , 1 , 500 , 000 horned cattle , and more than 5 , 030 , 000 sheep , yielded an annual income of £ 600 , 000 , and exported of her own produce or manufacture to the extent of £ 1 , 000 . 000 per annum , independently of her gold , Coupling these facts with the great fact ; that in ten months we have shipped a million ' s worth of our new found product , the fruit of peaceful in . dastry , and the earnest of a still brighter future , our friends in England must admit that our shores have strong attractions for all who think it better to emigrate than stay at home .

      TICTOKIA . The following letter is from a Sydney paper : — Melbourne , March 2 . I returned yesterday evening from the Forest Creek diggings , after a sojourn of some fourteen days , during which lime I have employed myself in collecting such information as may prove serviceable to your readers . Any description of the scene which bursts upon the ne > omer as he descends the ranges that border tbe creek would be next to superfluous , for so many writers have gone . before in the portraiture of yourewn numerous diggings that it would be but repetition were I to delineate those of Mf'Unt Alexander . The same numerous tents , the same blazing watchfires , the same barking of dogs and firing ef guns , the same busy hum of man invading the territory hitherto given up to the beast or the savage ; all these are the same as with you ; if I perhaps except that with us there is much more of each and every of them than there is in your colony . The

      Forest Creek diggings extend for a distance of some ten or twelve miles down the creek of that name , which is a tributory of the Loddon . the whole of the short ridges and gullies running dnwn into it having proved highly auriferous , while many of the hack ranges and gullies have also produced good samples of gold . In the localities where digging was first commenced there are still very many of the holes that are being profitably worked . From these the diggers have gradually extended themselves , till there is hardly a range or a watercourse that has not been delved into in the serrch for the ' glittering dross . ' This is more the case at present than at any other time , as the scarcity of water will not allow of any earth being washed hut such as will produce a very large amount of gold . Water is attainable , but not in the water-holes of the creek , every one of which is now choked up by the tailings of the cradles ; but by sinking on the flats of the creek very good wa-er is procured at a depth of about twenty fett . This plan is now being pursued . A party sinks a well , and then cuts a hole for washing in . the cradle being placed in a convenient position ; water is tben drawn up from the well , and the soil , | which has been carted from the hole where it was dug , is thus washed . In all cases the stuff

      washed is some very choice pickings from the strata of the hole such as the experience of the miner leads him to believe may cantain gold . Very many , however , who dislike the toil and expense attendant upon his process , are simply working their holes as dry diggings-nuggeting , as i tis called here—putting aside such of the stuff as appears hkely . and saving it for a more propitious season Many hundreds have done this , and ths advent of rain will turn out an amount of gold that will astonhhthe good folks of Melbourne . Another effect that the drought has had has been that it has disperaed the diggers in every direction over the face of the country . Gulleys , creeks bills , ridges , water courses , and rang es , have all been ransacked and turned over , till the whole country is now prettywell known to someorother of the diggers ; and with water several spots that are known to be rich will be worked to advanrage . In this search it is amusing to see the eagerness of the g Id seekers . Bozens will watch the movements of a pro « pector while the slightest rumour of a golden discovery ia any particular locality will send hundreds to the spot , and will cause the ground to be parcelled out , lotted , and worked with the most astoundine rapidity . 6

      Gold has been discovered at Fingal , Tan Dieroan ' s Land , and it is believed that when properly worked a large yield will be obtained . s ' The government essay office in South Australia , is in actual operation , and on the first day 2 , 010 ounces were deposited . The government were ta king steps to open up a road direct to Mount Alexander , in order to brin * the gold from thence under escort to Adelaide . °

      CA PITAL CONVICTIONS IN EDINBURGH . mIL ? * Hig ^ Court oflir tiiclary at Edinburgh on Monday two ( brothers ) of the name of Michael and Peter Seanlan , Irish labourers , were tried for the murder of * ° , ? : d . ff ° « at Hihon . of-Fortbar , in the parish of Kettle , m Fifesbire ; The evidence given at the beginning of the trial was circumstantial but was afterwards confirmed by the testimony of an Irishman of the name of Thomas M Manns , who had turned informer upon the prisoners . Ihe name of the old woman who was murdered was Margaret Maxwell , she kept a small huckster ' s shop at the place mentioned . The prisoners were labourers at Hmeworks m the neighbourhood and dealt with tbe old woman , against

      , whom they were proved to have taken umbrage for refusing to credit them with any more bread and meal . On Monday the 15 th 0 { February , the old woman was found murdered in her own house , her skull having been dreadfully beaten m by a three-legged stool . A watch and money to the value of £ 3 were stolen from the premises . The prisoners were examined on suspicion , and various marks about theit clothes were found to confirm tbe impression which prevailed as to their guilt . Their shirts , which the woman with whom they lodged proved were put on clean on the Saturday evening , had some marks of blood on them ; and one of them was stained with a "white substance , like milk , which tallied with a discoverv previously made > n

      the old woman ' s house , of a basin oi milk having been spilt in some way or another during the struggle . Their stockings were also covered with clay and dirt , showing that they had gone in ' o the old woman ' s house with their stock , ings on only , not to alarm any of the neighbours by the noise of their shoes . They were also heard to leave their lodgings for a time in the course of the Sunday night . The approver , Thomas M'Manus , deposed that he and the prisoners had arranged to rob the old woman of her money and go to America ; that they met on a Sunday evening , agreeably to appointment , to commit the robbery ; that the two prisoners went into the house , by breaking open aback window ; that when they were in he stood watch outside ;

      that he heard tbe noise of a struggle inside , and the old woman cry ont , «« Ob , my God ;" " that , on the prisoners coming out , Michael Scanlan , in explanation o ( the noise , said he had given the old woman a knock or two . A witness , who had been imprisoned in the same cell in Cupar prison with Michael Scanlan , stated that Scanlan had confessed to having taken part in the robbery , but said that it was neither he nor bis brother that had caused the death oi the old woman i that it was M'Manus who got into " grips" with her , and did the deed . Tbe evidence was

      followed by a lonp ; speech against tbe prisoners by the Solicitor-General , who was replied to by Mr . Craufurd , the counsel for the prisoners . Tlie Lord Justice General then summed up , after which the jury retired , and returned shortly afterwards with a verdict of Guilty against both the prisoners . They were then sentenced , in an impressive speech , to be executed at Cupar on Monday , the 5 th cf July . Tbe prisoners exhibited the utmost indifference during tbe trial , and at its close they said the judge and jury were a set of ¦ asse ? , and they hoped that they would all he dead and before the day ot execution ,

      mnnoPHOniA . —Another fatal case of hydrophobia has just occurred at Mametz ( Pas de Calais ) , A wheelwright named Jfoel had been bitten about six weeks since hy a mad dog ; ever since that period he has been impressed with tbe idea that the fortieth day would be fatal to him , and he has been preparing for that event by putting his affairs in order . On the morning of tho fortieth day he proceeded to his work as usual , and as he felt no symptoms of indisposition be was cheerful and in hopes that he should escape . On his wife , however , offering him some coffee he felt a difficulty in swallowing it , and from that time the symptoms went on increasing until death put an end to his sufferings in the course of the night . —BaHgnam .
