of the people knows the cause, and though the result may constitute a burthen, there is no complaint. And it is not going too far to say that there are many amongst the far mers, especially those who have not good crops in the ground, who have their turn at last. But, setting aside political and temporary exceptions, you are justified in speaking of the continuing and increasing prosperity of all in this country. (Cheers.) It is a great and gratify ing fact—it is a fact that we may contemplate with satis faction, because it carries with it no necessary mixture of evil, on the contrary, we have got rid of a cause that lcd to opposition between the interests of classes, and continu ally threatened more or less the peace if not the har mony and good will of the country. (Hear, hear.) We owe our thanks, first, to God for having permitted us to see a measure passed that has so much promoted our progress, and upon which we can likewise dwell with satisfaction. (Hear, hear.) The reason for our satisfaction does not, I trust, arise from the fact that those who were rich before have become somewhat richer now ; a much higher purpose than that has been attained by recent legislation. In re gard to the accumulation of wealth, we should recollect these holy words, " If riches increase, set not your heart • upon them." It is not for that reason, but because we have augmented the enjoyments of the working classes, that we congratulate you upon the change that has been brought about—(cheers)—upon the operations of that change, upon the state of the nation, and the relative atti tude of the nation, and the condition of the community at large. (Cheers.) 14 is our cheerful hope that by augmenting and opening up the channels of commerce we shall bring about a more constant intercourse amongst nations, which will necessarily tend to abate the rivalry that divided and estranged countries from one another, and will beget sen timents of amity that will tend at least to obviate those occasions when the sword has been drawn for the arbitra tion of national differences so far as respects natio n s. (Hear, hear.) Labour has been ordinarily the lot of man, but when cheerfully performed has the character of a bless ing. It has likewise in its operation the character of a burden that was imposed, I may say judicially, upon our race, and that burden has been lightened by recent legisla tion. (Hear, hear.) That legislation which appears in its first aspect to concern pounds, shillings, and pence, should rather be contemplated in its real aspect and social tenden cies, as lightening those burdens that doomed the mass of mankind to labour, and as serving to liberate the spirit of man from those necessities which belong to him. (Cheers.) It enables the father to make a surer and more abundant pro vision for his wife and children, and it affords him the moans of repose that may set his spirit free forth° contemplation of higher interests and objects. If those things have been done, and done we know they have been, that is a result in which all men who have borne a part in its promotion, how ever insignificant, may justly take a deep and cordial plea sure. (Cheers.) For myself, the part I performed in it "1 8 no)—but I stand in the presence of a com munity who had a great share in effecting this beneficial, and I must call it, blessed change. (Cheers.) It is a change of that character which commonly belongs rather to the imagination to conceive, than to the understanding to embody in a practical system, and for statesmen to bring forward. (Hear, hear.) It has been scattering plenty over •a smiling land, and we see the result not only in the com fort that is visible in your great community and elsewhere, but in the state of mind that prevails throughout England ; and the true and real harmony which—though it never can be fully realised in this world—comes nearer to our hopes and more within the range of human fortune than fifteen or twenty years ago we could venture to presume it would be. (Cheers.) The community of Manchester may look back with satisfaction on the part it has played in promote ing this great change in recent legislation- -that change has made in this country great progress towards its full con summation, but we must recollect that it has scarcely 'begun amongst other nations of the world. But the move ment which has arisen in this country will, I trust, pass -over the surface of the earth. (Cheers.) And if, in former times, England has been too ready with the warlike hand, and might have set on some occasions a better example to the nations of the world, I trust she is now giving a les son to the legislators of other countries that will gradually extend from place to place, until the utmost result that can be hoped for shall be accomplished. (Cheers.) You, gen tlemen, will enjoy satisfaction in witnessing that result, such as no other local community can experience. As for my part, my efforts carry with them their own reward, or if they did not, I should find an ample, and far more than ample recompence for any amount ei toil they entailed, in those documents that now lie before me, and which have recorded the sense of this com munity—the generous and indulgent sense pushed be yond what j ustice would warrant—(no, no)—of ray exer tions in favour of those principles to which it has been my delight to lend a helping hand in the struggles of past years, and to the maintenance of which, after what I have seen to-day, I need hardly tell you, I shall continue to be humbly and faithfully attached. (Loud cheers, amidst which the right hon. gentleman resumed his seat.) The MAYOR then announced that that part of the pro ceedings had terminated ; and, under his worship's guid ance, the Chancellor of the Exchequer passed to the apart ment allotted for the banquet. THE DEJEUNE. The proceedings closed with an entertainment to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, which was laid out in a spa cious apartment in the Town Hall, and which was attended by about 100 gentlemen, including, of course, all thcs: who were actors in the stirring events of the day. The mayor presided, having on his right hand the honoured guest, and on the left the Bishop of Oxford. The health of her Majesty the Queen having been drunk with great enthusiasm, The CHAIRMAN rose, and begged to propose "The Health of the Chancellor of the Exchequer," whose blandness of manner and kindly sentiments had endeared him to each and to all of them. (Cheers.) He did not think they should be so unreasonable as to expect any further exer tion that day fronlithe right hon. gentleman ; it would be - unfair to ask him to deliver another sueh speech as they had been listening to—a speech so comprehensive, and so suitable to their circumstances as Manchester merchants, that while they lived they should ever remember it with feelings of satisfaction and pleasure. (Cheers.) It was but a small tribute to the right hon. gentleman to propose his health, but the manner in which it would be receive,' would convince him that they were all of one mind and heart with respect to him. (Cheers.) He would, in con clusion, propose "The health of the right hon. gentleman the Chancellor of the Exchequer." (Loud cheers.) The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER returned thanks. He said—l receive this as a new favour in addition to the ether favours that you have already conferred on me ; but on the present occasion, I must confine myself to the simplest form of reply ; and indeed I should have been pressed hard if, sir, you had not given me that intimation, because I already felt to-day the inadequacy of words to convey all I felt, and it is quite plain that thanks, once in adequately expressed, will become poorer and poorer by reiteration. (Hear, hear.) I shall say no more on the subject, feeling that I have already detained you too long in speaking on a transaction where I have been myself a prominent person. I have now to propose to you " The Health of our worthy Chairman;" and this is a subject on which I feel myself in a certain degree set free, except so far as the presence of that respected gentleman restrains me from saying that which otherwise I would say. (Hear, hear.) The situation he holds in this great city—and, I b elieve by the repeated choice of those whose duty it is to elect your chief magistrate—is a sufficient proof of the estimation in which he is held ; but I have not passed the few days since I arrived in Manchester without learning more than that indication conveyed. (Cheers). I see in him a person who is deserving of the high public station he fills by his virtues, who occupies a high place in your regard, and who, amongst the large class of persons with whom he is connected, is recognised as one of the kindest amongst the many kind and indulgent masters that form the chief glory of Manchester. (Cheers.) If that be a true description of your worthy mayor, it would not become me when I stand before you, who are much better ac quainted with his character and merits than I am, to dwell upon them at greater length, and I shall therefore only en treat of you to join with me in drinking the toast I beg to give, namely, " The Health—with long life and every blessing—of the Mayor of Manchester, and three times three.' (Loud cheers.) The MAYOR returned thanks, and proposed " The Health of the Bishop of Oxford." (Cheers) In doing so he adverted in complimentary terms to the high position held by the right reverend prelate. The Bishop of OXFORD thanked the Mayor most cor dially for the kind and undeserved manner in which he had proposed his health. He was rejoiced at the oppor tunity that was then afforded to him of seeing in their proper home the great industry, skill, and intellectual pre-eminence or their vonntry. (Firm, hear). There was but one drawback to the pleasure he experienced, and that was, that he should be called upon to trouble them with any remarks after what they had heard that day. The chairman had been pleased to allude to the situation which he held ; and he could assure them it was im possible for any one holding that position to pay ever so short a visit to Manchester, and exercise ever so small an observation on what was going on, without feeling most deeply interested. (Hear.) Perhaps that which above all other things had been suggested to him was the in creased value of that which he had not been in the habit of undervaluing namely, the necessity of educating the great mass of the people. (Cheers). When he stood on the Preceding day in the midst of some of their most wonderful works of machinery, and marked the improve ments whieh within the last year or two had taken place in some of the subtlest and most efficacious parts of their ma chines, and when he observed how the intellect of man was devoted, and successfully, at once to increase their power—to remove hindrances to their efficiency—to pro mote savings in the smallest parts of the subject matter with which they h ad to deal—and when from the machines he turned to those feeding them, and marked. this great truth, that just ao much as they had in creased the power of their machines, they needed two - things—not so much skill in common workmen, but n greater degree of skill in the higher workmen—it' struck his mind how essential it must be to so great a commercial community that they should be enabled to educate their workmen, and that as they had made such a great progress in the improvement of material machinery like the present, a like improvement should be made in the education of the Workmen, who would thus be enabled to manage them. When he saw such a mass of men as he had beheld that Y, so self-controlled in their great strength, it was an other reason, in his mind, why this question should be one of the first importance. (Cheers.) Be felt more deeply when close to their great city what even at a distance he had known—that this great nation must be thoroughly educated to make it safe. There was a power within it that would be most dangerous unless the moral and intel lectual nature of the people was so framed and fashioned, tempered and constructed, that they should know how to guide and direct their gigantic strength. (Cheers.) He would not then enter at large upon the question, nor pro nounce an opinion upon it ; but this he would say, that he felt confident that, from the experience, and intellect, and moral daring of that great community, w ith t h e su bj ect in ;lit daily before them, with its receiirements and ne s which God would it—solve this question God had enabled them to to doubt that be would on this ; and the city of ;ht it too much to lay out or from the distant hills, of the people, should no;, on was to bring waters of countless multitude, and great question.

What right can the confiscator of the estates of the Lombard emigrants—emigrants whose naturalisation in Piedmont she had acknowledged—what right has she to talk of International Law ? The American well knew that it would never do to leave KOSSTA in such ruthless and lawless hands. The vindic • tiveness that demanded confiscation of the property of the naturalised subjects of Piedmont would have been satisfied with nothing less than con fiscation of M. KOSSTA's liberty for life in a dungeon ; and, probably, would have speedily relieved itself even of that charge by imbruing its hands in his blood. It is needless to advert to the attempts of Austria on the liber ties of other States in Germany and Italy—its dealings with any unfortunate individuals, whose property or persons it could seize, if they hap pened to be obnoxious to it, were an ample justi fication for Capt. INGRAHAM. Public opinion appears to be altogether in favour of Captain INGRAHAM. His own Government promptly ac cepts his proceedings, and makes them its own ; and Genoese citizens, though taken to task after -wards by the prudent police, serenade him on board hi• vessel. In this country there can hardly be two opinions on the subject. The com mon feeling is, "We could wish that our gallant offi cers were also allowed to be INGRAHAMS." Every Englishman knows where the fault lies ; and he sees with humiliation the commander of a small American, vessel attracting more respect in the Mediterranean than a powerful fleet of his country's vessels in the ../Egean. What will be the result ? Austria will quibble, and complain, and succumb. It knows :full well that the Young Republic will stand no nonsense. It will not like to have Trieste and Fiume blockaded by Republican vessels, its little fleet and commerce annihilated, and its mines of popular disaffection sprung by the presence of the stripes and the stars in its waters. It must yield. However mortifying, the representative of all the Hapsburgs, must bow to the chosen of the United States Ballot-box. Woe to the President who should propose a compromise, and woe to the Emperor of Austria if he should dare to insist on it. No ; happily for this case of Imperial audacity, the American people—not a half Aus trian Minister—have the business in their own hands. President PIERCE has sustained a grie vous fall in popularity at home, and he dares not risk, even were he so inclined, which he is not, even the appearance of concession to Austria. It has been urged, even by some who rejoice, as we do, in KossTA's escape, and think the Aus trian captain the grosser violater of international law, that refugees cannot be allowed to naturalise themselves in another State, merely to return and carry on revolutionary projects with greater faci lity; that it would result in serious embarrass ments between the adopted and the relinquished country. The answer seems to be, that had KOSSTA, for instance, been caught in the act of raising sedition or rebellion in Austria, whether he were a United States citizen or not, he must bear the consequences of his own act. Had he been detected levying war on Austria, in the United States themselves, Austria, we suppose, could have obtained redress. The one thing no American captain can, or should, tolerate, is the seizure, in a neutral port, of those who have legal claim on the protection of the United States flag. THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING-, OCTOBER 13, 185 3. LONDON, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1853. Another significant circumstance has just indicated the determination of the CZAR to perse vere in his arrogant and aggressive policy to wards Turkey Prince MENSCHIKOFF is an nounced, by advices from Bucharest, to be on the eve of assuming the government of the Danubian Principalities. Another incident, moreover, has just intimated the resolve of the SULTAN to tolerate no longer the daring assaults made by Russia upon the in tegrity of his dominions and the rights of his sovereignty—the advances made towards a recon ciliation at Olmfitz have been definitively rejected as involving, on the part of the Divan, a dis graceful concession, or, in other words, a de grading, and therefore inadmissible compromise. Coupling these two facts, it must be obvious that, at this juncture, war is, indeed, most im minent. Having bestowed decorations upon upwards of eighty Austrian officers during his stay in Vienna, and having adroitly squandered his courtesies on the Prussian Princes and high dignitaries during his sojourn at Berlin, the Russian AUTOCRAT has hastily taken his departure from Germany on his return to St. Petersburg. His recent journey has not proved fruitless of some at least among the results which were anticipated. The Emperor NICHOLAS has developed his wily designs, and in doing so has added largely to his already sinister reputation. He has already vir tually broken up the Vienna Conference. He has estranged the Four Powers from each other that is to say, at least, he has withdrawn both Austria and Prussia from the cause of Turkish Alliance, or, as it might even be called, of Turkish Protection. He has caused France and England to find themselves, at the very crisis of the contention, deserted by their former colleagues in the support of the just and jeopardised in terests of the Moslem Government. It is well. To a certain extent it is well that the mask should thus have been thrown off betimes by the Royal and Imperial Councils of Potsdam and Schoenbrunn. It necessitates a closer alliance than ever between the Cabinets of St. James's and the Tuileries. It confirms and consolidates that noble political friendship which has happily sprung up of late between France and England. It originates a sympathy that at once bridges over the Channel, and connects yet more intimately than might otherwise have been practicable, the two foremost races and the two most powerful States of Christendom. Therefore, we say, it is well that the CZAR should thus far have succeeded. It is well that he should have enabled the Minis ters of Queen VICTORIA and of the Emperor NA POLEON to recognise forthwith the exact nature of the present situation ; to perceive the precise ten dency of his lawless policy and daring ambition ; and to comprehend clearly, and at once, the ex tent of Prussian turpitude and Austrian faithless- fleas. There cannot any longer remain a moment's doubt that France and England are left by the former allies of Turkey to support, with no fur ther aid than that derived from their own strong arms, the rights and the integrity of the invaded dominions of the Osmanli Government. That has at length become apparent. As we intimated yesterday, both Austria and Prussia have been shamefully won over by the wiles of the CzAR, at any rate, to a promise of neutrality. Turkey can, therefore, at this period, look for external assistance solely from France and Great Britain. And that assistance, for the credit of Euro pean honour be it said, must assuredly be accorded to the SULTAN, if not at the first, at least at the eleventh hour—directly intelligence of war having been actually commenced on the Danube is received in Paris and London from Constantinople. Immediately information to that effect arrives from the Levant timidity must at last, in spite of the P r i me Mi n i s t er , b e aban doned, however reluctantly, by the ABERDEEN Administration. Y. It is inevitable : even at a time when the peace fanatics aro rav i ng th e i r loudest in favour of a dishonourable compromise, in preference to a war, however justified by oir cumstances--when Mr. COBDEN within Parlia ment, and Mr. BRIGHT without Parliament, are, with a brazen assurance, sullying their fair fame by showing the white feather. Yes. It is inevita ble : for we have not fallen so low but what a periods of great emergency something of the olde] spirit of the Anglo-Saxons will, in derision of eco - nomic poltroonery, and in scorn of the babbler: ; for arbitration, reveal itself in the face of day in defiance of every falsely so-called prudential con-. sideration. Yes. It is inevitable : for although? they may be more than ever " a nation of shop -..1 keepers," might have been said of the Cartha - en of old, the English are not absol u t e ly so gian s as base as would be implied by the benevolent but mistaken visionaries who yesterday oommenced ' their proceedings in solemn conclave a 4 c Edinburgh. Our forefathers consented, it is trufa, to the parti tion of Poland. We ourselves tolerated but very recently the subjugation of the heroic Hungarians when fighting gloriously for their independence. But those great crimes against the laws of nations and against Liberty cannot, we conceive, be re peated under similar auspices without some generous effort on our par's at interposition. No. Arbitration may be admirable enough in due season and under ordinary circumstances. But even admitting that it was applicable to the quarrel between Russia and Turkey—which we cannot for an instant admit that it has been ever since the passage of the Pruth and the occu pation of the Principalities—it has been tried and it has failed, and, consequently, there remains but the other branch of the alternative. Eng lishmen, resolved not to become accomplices in a huge atrocity by passively consenting to the Rus sian spoliation of Turkey—in spite of Mr. COB DEN, in spite of Mr. BRIGHT, in spite of the Times, in spite of Lord ABERDEEN, in contempt of craven statesmen, and in scorn of pusillani mous visionaries— " We'll take our stand, And draw the brand, As in the ancient days !" It is no mere blustering or braggadocio. It is the utterance only of the passionate yearnings of our po pulation. Yearnings for the prevention of an enor mous crime, for the punishment of the assailant of an inoffensive neighbour, for the rolling back by force of arms (now more particularly that our diplo matists have failed to repel them by negotiations), the rolling back by force of arms of the robber forces who have outraged the tranquillity of Europe by crossing the Pruth and invading the Principalities. A retribution of this kind is now being drawn down inevitably upon his own head by the Russian AUTOCRAT. He it was who first caused the_rup tare of peace by despatching his soldiers to the occupation of the Moldo-Wallachian territories. He it is who is at last rendering war most immi nent by refusing every concession, by rejecting the Turkish modifications, by still concentrating his troops upon the Danube, by placing at their head a daring chieftain like GORTZCHAKOFF, and last, but most assuredly not least, by nomi nating MENSCHIKOFF to the Government of the Principalities. Under these circumstances war, we repeat, has become imminent—particularly now that instructions have been sent to OMER PACHA acquainting him with the decision of the National Council, and ordering him to demand from the Russian General the evacuation of Molde-Wallachia within a fortnight, so as to admit of GORTZCHAKOFF having time to communi cate with the Supreme Government at St. Peters burg. Supposing, however, that the required evacuation be refused at once and peremptorily, hostilities are forthwith to be commenced. War then, we repeat, has become imminent : and at this critical period the effective army of the STJL TAN is being increased, by a fresh levy of seventy five thousand men, to an aggregate of three hun dred thousand altogether—and meanwhile the Czar NIOHOLAS is hastening across Germany to St. Petersburgh, the combined fleets of France and England having already passed the Dar danelles. The promptitude and energy with which an American naval commander can act, and be con fident, too, of the approbation of the authorities at home, contrasts, somewhat to our mortification, with the irresolution of English officers, conse quent entirely upon a too well-founded apprehen sion that their acts may not be adopted by their own Government. Few English commanders would have ventured, in Captain INGRAHAM'S position, to have adopted a similar course ; not from want of equal courage, certainly, but the fear " of the veteran Prime Minister, of Holy Affiance, Vienna Congress predilections, must have been before their eyes, and they would not have risked the short cut of common sense, to result in Aus trian lectures from VATTEL, and polite excuses for him by his civil superiors. Now, whatever VATTEL may lay down about neutral ports and fo reign vessels of war therein, the American knew full well that the Austrian Commander had paid no respect to those rights in capturing, or rather kidnapping, a man whom he reasonably claimed as an American citizen. The man him self might be justly proud of his Hungarian na tionality, and might avow it ; but having taken the oath of allegiance to the American Govern ment, and having entered upon the noviciate re quired by it of all foreigners, in good faith, he must in all reason be regarded as owing allegiance to the American Government, and as entitled, if wronged, to demand its protection. In the published letters of M. BRUCK, no other ground is alleged for M. KOSSTA'S being under Austrian jurisdiction than his having avowed himself to the Austrian Captain to be an Hungarian. He certainly was so in the sense in which he with an honourable pride asserted it. He was not ashamed of his father-land. But it nowhere appears that M. KOSSTA denied his Ame- Hear; citizenship ; the•proofs of which, moreove; were furnished in writing to M. BRUCK at Con stantinople, by Mr. BROWN, of the Amarioar gation there. At the present time, however, ;14,-OD.. every Government but our own lets the world know such justification as it oan offer for its conduct, Austria condescends to address a long note to the other Powers, charging the American Commander chiefly with two offences-Ist, that of Violating the rights of a neutral port, and secondly, that of declaring war himself, a power re served by the United States Constitution to the President. The American Cabinet has, however, accepted without qualification the acts of its officer. It will not allow its subjects to be kid napped with the most brutal violence in sight of its flag and under its guns. It holds it rather unreasonable to be at the expense of sending costly armed vessels to all parts of the world to protect its subjects, and then to be asked to see one of those subjects seized by another foreign commander in a neutral port. Why send armed vessels at all, it may be justly asked, unless forcible resis tance to wrong be contemplated Why not send merely some elegant clipper yacht as the symbol, not the reality, of naval power ? As to the right reserved to the President, the President appears to impart that right to every officer who sees an American citizen wronged, be he where he may. The head of the United States' Govern ment conceives it to be his first duty to protect his subjects. His naval officers he regards as his police in doubtful neighbourhoods, and their orders doubtless are to use no more violence than is necessary for the grand point of protecting their fellow-citlzens. He does not allow that lie is bound to suppose that any power has ordered its naval captains to seize unsuspecting Americans, fling h into the the sea, guard-room a of d fish them up again n e in head-long to be packed n away in a ship of war. If the captain of a ve ssel can a ct piracy y ; a part, he ne r n e t g r a a r l d p s ort it can as ap pretendpresumptionpirates. of It is very well, however, for Austria to appeal COURT CIRCULAR.

We have authority (says the Morning Post) for stating that the reported intended marriage of Lord Elphin stone, who is now in Scotland, to a young lady of that country, is without foundation. THE NORTH-WEST PASSAGE.—The Northern Whig states that Lieut. M'Clure, the discoverer of the North west Passage, is an Ulster man, and that Captain Kel let is from Clonmel, the capital of Tipperary. THE NEW BISHOPRIC OF GRAHAM'S TowN.—The Rev. John Armstrong, vicar of Tidenham, Gloucestershire, has been nominated by the Duke of Newcastle, at the suggestion of the Bishop of Cape Town, to the new diocese of Graham's Town, in Africa. ROYAL POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION. The Baroness Brunow, and part of the Royal Family of Russia visited this institution on Tuesday, and remained the greater part of the day. MISS b7NNINGHAME.—We are not able to trace the report to any sufficient authority, but we know that the belief-is entertained in well-informed quarters, that Miss ("1- nninghame either has been released, or will be imme set at liberty ; and that the certain intelligence o. fact may be expected in a very few hours.— Morning Herald. DAY OF PRAYER.—To-day (Thursday) is to be ob served as a day of humiliation and prayer in the prospect of impending war and pestilence by the Presbyterians of Dublin. There will be services in their various places of worship during the day. WESTMINSTER HOSPITAL—Mr. Wilson, secretary of the Westminster Hospital, yesterday waited on the pre siding magistrate, Mr. Arnold, at the Westminster Police-court, and informed him that he had been deputed by the committee of that institution to state that ar rangements had been made by them for the immediate reception of all cases of Asiatic cholera, And also for the immediate relief of all persons suffering from diarrhcea and bowel complaint. MINING EXCHANGE.—On Tuesday evening the lead ing brokers and agents interested in mining business —about 40 in number—assembled at the London Tavern, and agreed to resolutions for the appointment of a committee charged to fix upon a building suitable for an Exchange, and generally to adopt such measures as may be considered requisite for the attainment of the object in view. LISBURN ELECTION.—The nomination of candidates for the representation of Lisburn took place on Tues day, when the two Messrs. Richardson, the liberal and the conservative, were severally proposed and seconded. The friends of Mr. J. J. Richardson, the liberal candi date, are confident of the triumph of their man. TUSSAUD'S MUSEUM.—This very interesting exhibition seems to grow daily more popular, if we may judge by the crowded audiences daily who visit the Museum. Among the groups which attract much of the attention of the visitors, is the representation of her Majesty, and all the members of the Royal Family, who are sur rounded by many of the nobility and distinguished per sonages. Of these, perhaps, the figure which attracts most attention at the present time, is the late lamented Sir Charles James Napier, G.C.8., so well known for his gallant con d uc t i n India. This is one of the best likenesses of the whole group, and reflects great credit on the taste and execution of the Messrs. Tussaud. SHOEMAKERS' STRIKE IN THE WEST.—A general movement has been made by the shoemakers in Somerset and Devon for an advance of wages, in consequence, as alleged, of the present high rate of provisions. In the latter county the masters have offered an advance of 124 per cent. upon their former wages, and these terms have been very generally accepted, though they have been refused by some. The strike has also extended into "Wales, where a rise of 10 per cent, has in several in stances been demanded and acceded to by the masters. NEWMARKET RACES. (THIS DAY.) (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)

DRURY-LANE THEATRE. The morning performance, yesterday, drew together an immense audience, at Drury Lane. Mr. Gustavus Brooke's Virginias was a fine and effective representa tion of that character, and, as usual, met with the loudest of applause. The greater portion of the pit was occupied by the boys of the Greenwich Naval Asylum, who, prior to the commencement of the performance, sang the National Anthem in a manner which elicited the loudest cheers from all parts of the Theatre. In the evening, Mr. Brooke appeared as Master Walter, in the Hunch back, when the vast edifice was again crowded. To night he repeats Othello for the last time. Wednesday night will terminate his engagement, and on that occa sion he will appear, for the first time in Macbeth. PRINCESS'S THEATRE. The time-honoured comedy of The Rivals, was pre sented here on Tuesday evening, for the first time under the present management, with the utmost propriety of costume, and considerable efficiency of acting. Six Anthony Absolute had a sound and forcible representa tive in Mr. Addison, and, if Mrs. Winstanley was some what deficient in ease and richness in the celebrated part of Mrs. Malaprop, her full-blown presence and rotund voice carried with them a certain amount of impressive ness. Mr. H. Mellon rather underdid Sir Lucius O'Trigger ; he stood in awe, perhaps, of the most fas. tidious and frigid of London audiences. Though his general bearing was praiseworthy as the gentlemanly fire-eater, he must infuse a greater dash of Hibernian spirit, to give Sir Lucius his due prominence among the persons of the piece, and this we conceive Mr. Mellon to be capable of doing without at all verging on the coarse or vulgar. Mr. Harley, as Bob Acres, was irresistibly comical, rather farcical, it is true, but we must not be overcritical with the exhilirating veteran, who seems livelier and fresher every time we behold him —may his shadow never be less ! The sen timental lovers were well pourtrayed. Mr. Cathcart, as Falkland, was judicious and proper, and Julia is a role well adapted to Miss Heath's correct and placid style. Mr. Walter Lacy as Captain Absolute, and Miss Le- Clercq as Lydia, both played with spirit. The afterpiece of Marco Spada seems destined to - a rep tition of its former successful campaign. The houtie was extremely well attended. STRAND THEATRE. The performances last night at this favourite place of amusement were for the benefit of Mr. T. Payne, acting manager, and Mr. C. Davis, treasurer, and, notwith standing the unfavourable state of the weather, and the disappointment of Mr. J. W. Sharp not being able to perform in consequence of sudden indisposition, the house was crowded in every part. A charming comedietta, reduced into two acts from a play in five, acts by Kotzebue, was performed to introduce an old 'avourite, Mr. Ranger, of the Theatres Royal Drury-lane and Haymarket, and never do we recollect seeing him play with so much spirit, feeling, and true artistic verve. He was re-called most vociferously and applauded to the echo as he well-deserved. A "new" piece, *by StirlingCoyne, was completely suc cessful, called the JVaterwitches, in which Miss Marshall, and a debutante, Miss St. Leger, were the acme of life, fun, and sentiment. Some excellent dancing, by Ma.dlle. Antoine and Miss Palser, added considerably to the de light and complete satisfaction of the audience. * So called in the playbill of last evening; but, it we mistake not, only the revival of an old favourite. MARLBOROUGH-STREET.-(THIS DAY.) CRUELTY TO A HORSE.—Toseph, Chamberlain was Sum moned before Mr. Hardwick, by Mr. H. Thomas, sec retary to the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, for cruelty to a horse. Robert Reed, a constable employed by the society, stated that on the Ist inst. he saw a waggon drawn by three horses in St. James's-street. The shaft horse had a deep sore on its shoulder, and the wound presented a very bad appearance. The collar had been eased, but not sufficient to take off the pressure from the wound. The horse was in middling condition in other respects. The name of Chamberlain, of Baldwin-road, was on the cart. Defendant said the wound was not larger than a shilling, and he would take care the horse was not worked again till the wound was healed. Mr. Hardwick said on those conditions he should dis charge defendant on payment of costs. TO THE NOBLE ALRL AT THE HEAD OF HER MAJESTY'S GOVERNMENT. (From a Countryman of his.) Hey, Aberdeen, are ye wakin' yet, And are our drums a beatin' yet, The journals lee, Or fra' all we see, The Russians are not retreatin' yet ? Hey, Aberdeen, are ye writin' yet, In hollow phrases delightin' yet, While on Danube's banks Thae hostile ranks Are makin' ready for fightin' yet ? Hey, Aberdeen, are ye prosin' yet, On your council sofas a dozin' yet, To the old world's sneers And the new world's jeers, Your country's honour exposin' yet ? Hey, Aberdeen, are ye twaddlin' yet, And over yer red tape dawdlin' yet, About Nick's good faith, And his power, and baith, To your weary colleagues a maudlin' yet? Hey, Aberdeen, are ye Premier yet, We must have some cleverer schemer yet, Or the Russian cat, Whom ye love to pat, Will be over to lick up her cream here yet. Punch. BUCKINGHAM-HOUSE.—We have been requested to contradict the statement that Buckingham-house has been purchased by the members of the Junior United Service Club. Our informant states that the Club were in treaty for the property, but they have since aban doned the negotiation, and given up the idea of making the purchase. IMPORTATION OF OPIUM.—The quantity of opium im ported in the month ended the sth ult. was 10,8321 b. against 23,9911 b, in the same month in the preceding year. APPREHENSIONS AS TO MR. PETO'S YACHT.—The Bury Post says :—" We lament to learn that very con siderable apprehensions are entertained for the safety of the yacht belonging to S. M. Peto, Esq., M.P., which recently conveyed from Lowestoft several gentlemen engaged on the railway undertakings now being carried out at Christiania, in Norway, which place the little vessel had just left before the gale of Sunday se'nnight, and since which time no tidings of any kind of her have reached here. Among the gentlemen who were on board when she left Christiania was Mr. George Bidder, the celebrated arithmetician. THE DUBLIN RAILWAY ACClDENT.—Lieutenant Tyler, R.E., the inspector appointed by Government to inquire into the circumstances under which the late lamentable accident on the Great Southern and Western Railway took place, proceeded on Tuesday morning to the scene of the disastrous occurrence, to make himself acquainted, as far as possible by personal inspection, with the local ity. He was to attend the adjourned inquest at Naas yesterday, and that to be held on Monday next in Stevens's Hospital, to watch the proceedings. The suf ferers in Stevens's Hospital are going on as favourably as can be expected. Miss Pack, however, is still in a very precarious state, and cannot yet be declared out of danger. Miss Farrell is progressing satisfactorily, but has not as yet b een a bl e t o b e remove d. The remaining patients—namely, Miss Esther Coffey, and the female servant of Dr. Stokes, have been pronounced out of danger, and are recovering as rapidly as can be expected. Mrs. Blacker still remains at Straffan, the nature of her injuries not permitting her to be removed, but the medi cal gentlemen in attendance give most satisfactory ac counts of the condition of that lady's health. 1 MONEY MARKET AND CITY INTELLIGENCE. CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. The sales of cotton at Liverpool yesterday were estimated at 6,000 bales, of which 1,000 American were taken for export and on speculation. The market was heavy again, and compared with Friday's rates the prices are much the same. The sales com prised 3,500 American, 120 Pernam and Maran ham at 6d. to 71d., 180 Bahia at 6d. to 6d., 100 Egyptian at 6/d. to 10d., and 2,000 Surat at 21d. to 41d. per lb. Railway shares were quiet at rather lower prices. The six weeks' average price of wheat is 565. 11d. per quarter, and last week's sales were 103,932 quarters. It is expected that there will be an importation of chestnuts from France, as the article presumably does not come under the denomination of " dried vegetables," which are not allowed to be exported. A publication that has long been wanted appears in the shape of the General Weekly Shipping List and Postal and Mercantile Directory. Being superintended by practical mercantile men, it com bines the greatest accuracy with the utmost ampli tude. 1t is a notorious fact, that at present there is no correct list of vessels loading outwards in London or the outports, and exporters are continu ally put to great inconvenience in consequence. The Customs Bill of Entry is extremely incorrect, the last list issued of ships loading, containing, for example, the names of about 40 vessels which have sailed weeks, and in some cases, months ago. This part of the Weekly Shipping List will be alone of value, considerable pains being taken, we are as sured, to gather correct information from the brokers themselves ; and this is the first attempt to combine a list of all vessels and steamers loading at the principal ports in the country. Much disappointment is expressed at the infor mation received to-day by telegraph from Marseilles to the effect that there are no Australian letter bags by the overland mail. The unlucky circum stance of the steamer from Sydney having arrived too late has caused a delay of a whole month, and so far destroyed the whole benefit of the overland route. There can be no doubt, however, that the future arrangements will be more perfect. The last week's railway receipts ascertained up to this day are in round figures as under : 1853. 1852. North-Western £53,310 £51,021 South-Western Brighton Midland South-Eastern. Caledonian and Edinburgh and 16,502 14,888 Glasgow Great Northern Lancashire and Yorkshire 18,568 17,068 The Bank of England has not further advanced the rate of discount. The English Funds have been in a very singular position, and the same anomaly exists of money stock being scarcer and k per cent. dearer than stock for the month of November. Consols have been 912 and 92/ for Transfer, and after being 92 for Account, are now 91g. The premium on Exchequer Bills is 4s. to 9s.

Their Ma jesties drove along the Boulevards in an open car riage to the terminus of the Northern Railway, preceded by a detachment of Guides, and followed by an escort of Dragoons. The Emperor on - Tuesday gave private audiences to General Baron de Fagel, the Dutch minister, who presented an autograph letter from his sove reign ; to Baron de Wendland, the Bavarian minis ter, who delivered on the part of his Bavarian Majesty the insignia of his Royal Order of St. Hubert, with a letter testifying his personal senti ments of esteem towards his Imperial Majesty ; and to Baron de Grancy, who delivered his letters of credence as resident minister at Paris of the Grand Duke of Hesse. The last news from Constantinople has at length opened the eyes of the French public to the real dangers of the Eastern question. We now hear no laudations of the moderation of the Czar—no pre dictions of the success of the negotiations. Every one is convinced that the sword must be drawn, and the question is no longer as to whether there will be a war or not, but as to whether the war will be confined to Turkey and Russia alone, or will in clude the other Powers of Europe. The parties inclined to take the most favourable view of affairs go no farther than to say that in the collision which must take place, England and France will, in the first place, appear only in the character of mediators ; and that, although their respective fleets will necessarily appear on the scene of action, they will observe a sort of armed neutrality, which at a more advanced period will enable the belligerent parties to come to terms. Every one must hope that, as fighting seems now to be in evitable, the persons who argue in this fashion may be in the right ; but it cannot be concealed that if war once commences it is difficult to see where it is to end, or how those nations which have, with their eyes open, placed themselves on the edge of the whirlpool, can escape being drawn into the vortex. The Moniteur publishes a detailed list of the different forests formerly belonging to the Orleans family, which are to be sold in the present year in the execution of the degree of March 27, 1852, and which together amount in extent to 25,149 hectares (about 62,050 English acres.) General Carrelet, who has been sent on a mis sion by the Emperor, to ascertain th e s t a t e an d condition of certain parts of the country, arrived. at Valence (DrOme) on the 6th, where he was re ceived by the civil and military authorities, and the heads of the clergy. The General addressed them in a short speech, in which he explained the object of his mission, and expressed a hope that he should meet with their best assistance in carry ing out the objects which he had in view. little business Bourse was heavy yesterday, with little business doing. Prices recovered however towards the close. The Three per Cents. opened at 72f. 20c. and rose subsequently to 72f. 65c., at which they closed for the end of the month. The Four-. and-a-Half per Cents. closed at 99f. 25c. ; Orleans Railway shares, 1,150 f. ; Rouen, I,ooof, ; Havre, 485 f.

RUSSIA AND TURKEY. - - It appears to be so generally credited in Paris that, should hostilities break out between the Turks and Russians, material assistance will be given to the former by the English and French Govern ments, that it is now a matter of discussion what particular point an expeditionary force would he likely to occupy. Two have already been spoken of. Ther e i s a thi r d po i nt, h owever , which pre sents more facilities, and would promise better results than either. Between the point at which the Danube makes an abrupt turn in its upward course towards Galatz and the Black Sea, the groun d is the narrowest of all that extends from the river to the coast—that is, between Rassova, on the , Danube, and Kestendje, on the Black Sea. In the' event of the Turks being discomfited, a force occu-. pying that position might act as a check on a Russian army, which, after crossing the Danube, would continue to march towards Adrianople, and menace Stamboul. The expeditionary force would not be obliged to make any long marches by land, but could be conveyed entirely by sea, and landed on the coast. It would be high up between the Danube and the Balkan, and be in the rear of the Russians in the event of their moving southwards. That position is considered superior in a strategic point of view to either Rodosto, or the sea of Mar mora, or Roustchouk, which is nearly in the centre of the line of the Danube. Whatever be the final issue of the war, it is probable that in the com mencement the resistance offered by the Turks will be more formidable than in 1828. The presence of the Duke of Nemours in the neighbourhood of the Turkish camp, travelling under the name of Samblon, and accompanied by a talented officer of the name of de Reillez, gives rise to many conjectures and some uneasiness. It is, however, concluded by the more tranquil tem peraments, that the Duke was only studying the military positions en, amateur. A Russian officer, said to be on a mission to Greece, was known to be staying in Constantinople under a feigned name, and was stated to have frequent interviews with M. do la Cour. Prince Gortschakoff has given 11 otice to the Hos podar Stirbey that Prince Menscbikoff is for the future to superintend the Government of the Prin cipalities. The Grand Duke, heir to the throne of Russia, arrived at St. Petersburg on the Ist inst.. The letters brought by the Chaptal steamer from Constantinople are, it appears, of the 4th. They have not yet been received in Paris ; but it is not supposed that they contain much more than the confirmation of the intelligence with respect to the proceedings of the Divan, already known by tole graph. Advices have been received this morning, through the submarine telegraph, via the Hague, stating that the Lloyd steamer arrived at Trieste yesterday (the 12th), with news from Constanti nople to the 3d instant. These advices confirm the statement already published that the Turkish manifesto had been issued ; and they add that new levies of troops have bent ordered. The navigation of the Danube and the Black Sea is stopped. The remaining Russ; .n functionaries have left Turkey'. A private letter from Constantinople: , of the let, say the Patrie, " states that Reschid _Pacha had jm t been chosen by the Divan, to go in :person to General Gortschakoff, the Commander-in,Chief of the Russian troops in the Danubian principalities, to make known to him the resolutions of the Porte." The Siecle thus defines what the conduct Of Omer Pacha is to be under the instructions thus given by the Porte to wage war on the Russian troops, with a wide and deep river between the I'N° armies :—" Until Omer Paoha receives a fresh clr ders, his operations will be confined to harassing the enemy by impeding thelcommunications which' he keeps up by means of the river, and by oppos ing any attempt which may be made by the Rus ' sians to cross it." Letters from Bucharest state that the movement ofi Russian troops goes on increasing. Fifteen battalions of infantry and a park of 32 pieces of artillery had just passed through that place. General Luders had arrived there. The Russian army occupy four camps : one at a short aistanc° from Bucharest, the second at Majorela, the third at Kaloakaren, and the fourth at Serbanetski - Prince Gortschakoff had recently inspected then- It is positively stated that Dembinski will hale the command of 20,000 men in the Turkish army. The Portafoglio Maltese states from Constalti" nople of the 25th ult., that the Sardinian Ambas sador there, Baron Tecco ' has delivered a report to the Turkish Minister of War, written by Captain Govane, of the staff of the "Pied.montese army, vill ° had, on invitation, inspectedAhe Turkish fortressso along the Danube. The report is stated to be generally favourable to Omer Pasha's measures. The Corriere Mercantile of Genoa, of the Bth, quotes an article from the Gazette del Popolo , posi tively stating that the Hungarian General lelaPka9, who is noted for his defence of the fortress co Cromorn, has been appointed by the Porte Com mander-in-Chief of all the fortrawes of the Otto man Empire. AUSTRIA. The Osterreische Correspondenz, of the Bth, 1 10 an article on the liberation of Roasts. It amieo that, by way of a set-off, Austria has received, a temporary satisfaction from the Government at Washington, the assurance that Mr. Brown, the, American Charge d'Affaires at Constantinople,' will be removed. The question of international law remains open for the present, but it seems likely that a satisfactory arrangement will be come to between the American and Austrian Govern ments on the subject of Captain Ingraham's con duct at Smyrna—the more so, as Austria has wisely given up all claims to the person of M. Kossta. On the 9th the Vienna Lloyd was conftsc,ated• This measure is attributable to an article on the subject of the late Imperial ordinance, touching the legal possession of real (immovable) property by Jews. Another version says it was owing t° certain advices which a number of this journal contained, from Constantinople, about the unfurl' ing of the flag of the Prophet. SPAIN. Our accounts from Madrid are of the 7th inst. The Queen was to preside at a Cabinet Council) which was to be held in the evening. • tea General Count de Mirasol was to be appointed Captain General of Valencia, in the room of Gel l ° - ral Campazano, who is to assume direction of the artillery at Madrid. the The Three • per Cents. were done at 43 ; New Three per Cents. at 22 11-16; the Debt of the First Class at 9i ; and that of the Second at k' GREECE. Advices from Athens state that, on the 30th ult., an earthquake was felt in that city and in Thebes• GERMANY. The German Journal of Frankfort says—" The negotiations are still being carried on with France, respecting certain Customs' stipulations. A papa has been drawn up by the Prussian Government , setting forth its views on the subject. But difficul ties arising from the Customs' laws of France row der the success of the negotiations uncertain." DENMARK. In the present budget an increase of 233,000 r• b. thalers is proposed by the Mi n i s t er o f War fof the purposes of the kingdom alone, and by th e Minister of Marine for the united kingdom an in: crease of 102,000 r. b. thalers. It is also propose ( ' to settle on Prince Christian of Glucksburg, ne t , styled Prince of Denmark, the presu m pti ve hey._ to the throne, a provision of 50,000 r. b. thalers year. EXTENSIVE FORGERIES AND ROBBERTlS.—Yesterclbi the police of the metropolis received information that en organised system of plunder has been carried on for some time past, in several parts of England, by a persott under the assumed names of Pearce, Br a dl ey , Lloyd ' and other aliases, who has successively on a ll occa sions evaded the local police. His principal occupation i 5 uttering forged Bank of England notes, for i/. an d 10/4 purporting to be dated London, 12th April, 1853, the engraving of which is excellent, especially th e figure of Britannia in the corner, but the colou r o f th e i n k use' in the denominations Five and Ten, is of a pale black , or musty brown ; the water-mark is very badly executed' and in some places scarcely perceptible, plainly appea r ing to have been impressed after the (paper was manu factured ; and the notes have not the crispness en," whiteness peculia r t o th ose of the Bank of Englarl".
