LATEST FOREIGN NEWS. RUSSIA AND TURKEY. Advices from Constantinople of the 15th inst. have reached Paris Marseilles. They announce the arrival of General Baraguay d'Hilliers. It was asserted that the Austrian Internuncio, Baron de Bruck, and Major Wildenbruck, the Prussian negotiator, had been recalled. The second division of the Turkish fleet had en tered the Black Sea, for the purpose of joining Muchaver's Pasha's squadron. Four hundred vessels were loading corn at Odessa. 10,000 auxiliaries were shipped from Alexandria on November 18th, for Constantinople. The Mahoinedans of Hindostau are in a state of, great excitement. A letter from Constantinople, of Nov. 14, says— " Whilst the artillery from the Turkish forts greets the entry of the whole of the combined British and French squadrons into the 13osphorous—whilst bloody battle is fought at Oltenitza, on the banks of the Danube, and 2,700 Turks victoriously re pulse four times that number of Russians—whilst the Sultan has declared that lie will head his troops next spring in person—whilst the army has given him the title of "Victorious " (ghazi) --and whilst every Mussulman in Constanti nople is elated by the victorious news that has come both from Asia and the frontiers of Wallachia —the new note concerted by the British and French gove rumen t 3, and condition ally accepted by . Russia, has arrived at Constantinople. Per sons who are fully able to judge of the matter assure me that this ultimatum, which has arrived at the most awkward moment is, less favour able to the interests of Turkey than the well known Vienna note, backed by the guarantee of the four Powers against the interference of Russia in the interior concerns of the Turkish Empire. It is said that it has only been presented to the Divan officially. It has not been accepted by the Porte. The time for negotiation has passed by, and that of war has come. " On Monday last Admiral Dundas, accompanied by several other British commanders, paid a visit to the Captain Pacha, on board the flag-ship Mahmoudie. The Turkish crews and artillerymen went through their exercise before the British officers. The greater part of the Turkish fleet has now left the Bosphorus for the Black Sea. All Russian ships here have been put under the pro tection of the Austrian flag. Is not this a very signifiant measure ? "On Wednesday morning the screw-vessel Na poleon, and the Friedland, in tow of the steam frigate Mogador, made their entry into the Bosphorus. The day after, several British and French men-of-war passed the Golden Horn, pro ceeding to their stations in front of the British and French embassies at Therapia. A fire of artillery was kept up at intervals, by salutes, during the whole of last week. Turkish troops continue to arrive by every steamer. The Vorwartz (of the Austrian Lloyd) brought 400 redifs on Monday from Smyrna;. On Sunday and on Tuesday the Turkish steamers arrived from the Dardanelles, laden with cannon and ammunition. The greatest ac tivity prevails on all sides, and the spirit of the Turks is highly belligerent. The late vic tories in the encounters at Chekvetil in Asia and at Oltenitza on the Danube, have been received by the population of Stamboul with great joy, and exercise a happy influence on the masses. Never was Constantinople more tranquil than at the pre sent moment. The turbulent spirit which had manifested itself prior to the declaration of war has been fully calmed by the manifesto of the Porte, and the exaggerated fears entertained of an anti-Christian movement have proved erroneous. We are on the eve of important events, and every courier that arrives either from Asia or the Danube may bring accounts of a great engagement. The fate of the Turkish Empire may be decided in the plains of Wallachia, and it may receive its death blow either on the frontiers of the Crimea or of Russian Armenia. "It is rumoured that the Turkish division sailing under the orders of Admiral Slade in the Black Sea has been fired on from one of the Russian forts on the Asiatic side, and that an engagement ensued, which ended in the destruction of the fort. No official news has, however, been received as yet on the subject. ‘ 4 Three Russian steamers made their appearance below the fortifications of Varna a few days since. They were without their ensigns ; and before the Turks could make them out and fire at them, they had made off in great haste. " Lord Stratford de Redcliffe, her Britannic Ma jesty's Ambassador, has come to Constantinople from his residence at Therapia, and spent the whole of last week at Pera. The necessity of frequent inter views with the principal Ministers of the Porte, is asserted as the cause of this temporary change of abode. The note which was brought out by the Fury is mainly occupying his lordship's attention at present. There can be no doubt that her Britan nic Majesty's Ambassador will use all his influence, which is very great here, towards bringing about a peaceable settlement of this now really all-aborb ing question. The difficulties are, however, greater than ever, owing to the blood that has been spilt. Every attempt must be made ; and Lord Stratford is certainly the person who, by a last effort for the sake of peace and the tranquillity of Europe, might succeed. The obstacles are, however, insurmount able. Yesterday morning three British war-steamers, were ordered off to Odessa very suddenly, viz., the Niger, 14 guns, Captain Heath ; the Wasp, Cap tain Lord John Hay ; and the Samson, steam-fri gate, 28 guns. Some of the officers belonging to the Niger were at Pera on Saturday night, at the theatre, when the order reached them to immedi ately return on board, and the next morning early they weighed anchor for Odessa. Three French steamers have likewise left for the same destination ; and it is said that some British and French line of-battle ships are to follow. " I have received the following very important communication :—On the decree appearing, by which the Sultan declared his intention of placing himself at the head of the army which is being formed at Adrianople, the new Greek Patriarch, Antymos, proceeded to the Reis Effendi (Reschid Pacha), and requested him to entreat the Sultan as a favour to permit him and all the Greek Synod to accompany his Majesty when he leaves for the army. This is a very important step. The decree according this demand will appear in a few days. " Since writing the above I am assured that Omer Pacha has advanced with all his forces (40,000 men), and that Ismail Pacha has pushed on from Kalafat and passed Krajowa with his army, which has been strongly reinforced. It appears, there fore, that they are uniting their forces in order to make an attack upon Bucharest. The fate of the Turkish Empire will thus be decided in the plains of Wallachia. From what I learn, all negotiations are at an end." A. private letter, of the lith, from Bucharest, mentions that the manifesto of the Emperor of Russia, which had been read in all the churches, was received with the utmost coldness by the Wal lachians, but produced great enthusiasm among the Russian soldiers. There is great excitement in Servia, and the Turks have retired from the lower parts of the city of Belgrade to the castle. Various inflammatory addresses, of which the following is a specimen, are in circulation : " Servians, be prepared for a great future. We must .00k to the Czar for safety. The Turks have space enough for their barbarity in Asia. We, ancient and orthodox Christians, have been forcibly ejected from our rightful possessions by the Mahometans, and the day of etribution has arrived. Let us assemble at the call of the Czar, who has so often helped us in the day of need." A despatch from Bucharest, Nov. 21, says : General Dannenberg reports that the Turks have left not only Oltenitza, but also the neighbouring island, and that they have retreated to Turtukai. The camp of 20,000, in the vicinity of the latter island, had been deserted for the last five days. No important events had taken place on the whole of the Moldavo-Wallachian line. The Wallachian artillery had been directed upon Turalai, to sup port General Engelhardt, who has but one battery at his disposition. The remainder of the Walla- Chian militia are waiting for marching orders. The border guards have already been attached to the Russian regiments. Two despatches were received in Paris on Satur day afternoon from Vienna. The first announces that the Russians bad made an attack by sea and land on Fort St. Nicholas, close to Batouni, and Were repulsed. A Russian ship of war ran ashore With 1,60 C, men on board, of whom 1,400 were drowned. The remaining 200 were saved by the ~...-uurks. It w ill b e remem b ere d th a t Fort St. Nichol as was captured by the Turks after the de claration of war by the Porte. The second despatch announces that, according '0 th e latest accounts from the Principalities, a Z the engagement was expected to take place on e 22d betweenor 23d the Turks and Russians be tween Krajova and Kalafat. On the 17th, the English and French fleets still remained in the -. ' o sphorus i . The Wanderer has a leader, in which a very ; I ° lll o Prehensive view is taken of the present ques su• We are rem i n ded that the present war in C_ East is some thi ng more than a few battl e s to tre , ?light on the Danube or in the Caucasus. The thttY of 1841 is virtually annulled ; and, however „ i ;_ugs may end, the position of the Ottoman 4 1. list Em undergo a great e4ange.

IV of a to passed, the relations of the Christians in Europe can no longer be the same. The neutrality of Servia during the Montenegrin war, her present attitude, and the concessions which the Porte has recently been forced to make to the Christians, clearly show tint some great change in the Illyrian triangle is inevitable. As in the Greek question, so in the present Gneco-Sclavonic one, the Cabinet of St. Petersburg is in opposition to the Western Powers, and the issue of the affair will probably be the same. The meaning of this is, that if Turkey should lose a part or the whole of her European possessions, the emancipated provinces will be placed under the protection of more than one Power. In Asia matters are far different, continues the Austrian writer. " There Turkey really is an empire, but during four centuries it has been little more than a camp in Europe." The Crescent long since retreated from Buda to the lower Danube, and now the Balkan affords but an imperfect pro tection to Constantinople. "If Turkey, by the pressure of Russia oa the one hand, and of the Greco-Sclavonic world on the, other, is forced to raise her camp in Europe, she will probably gain in strength, and play a part on her native soil of Asia, where the germ of political earthquakes for the next few decennaries is probably already sown." This is explained as follows:—" The whole of the northern half of Asia is already in the hands of Russia, and by means of her agents Persia and Central Asia have been drawn towards her. British India is menaced, China is revolutionised, and the United States have cast a longing eye on Japan." The Wanderer also states that all the accounts from the principalities of the Danube seem to con firm the rumour of the intention of the Russians to cross the Danube and attack the frontiers of Tur key. It also states from Orsova, that on the 16th the Turks commenced a movement from Kalafat towards the island of the Danube near Widdin, and that only 800 Turkish soldiers remained at Kalafat when this account left. According to the Wanderer, however, there are still hopes of a pacific solution, and it mentions a report at Vienna, which is hardly probable, that the English Government intends to recommend the Porte to open direct negotiations with Russia. A Belgian journal states that Skauderberg has completed his tour of inspection of the fortifications of the Balkan. He has given orders for the erec tion of new fortifications in the district of Schipkier, on the Balkan, and beyond Grahowo. A letter from Semlin, 18th, says:—"M. Muschin, Russian Consul-General at Belgrade, arrived here yesterday. The Pacha of the fortress had threa tened to bombard the place if M. Muschin did not withdraw. There are two parties among the Servians, and it is very probable that a collision may take place between them, which may lead to the intervention of one of the great Powers." A letter from Bucharest, of the 14th, says : " Up to this time, it has been the custom for the Catholics and Protestants to celebrate their fetes according to the old calendar, as is observed by the natives. Yesterday .a brief of the Pope was published, ordering that for the future the new calendar is to be observed." Prince Stourdza arrived from Bucharest on the 21st, with his family. The National Gazette of Berlin has the following from Breslau :—" The authorities in the Sclavonic provinces of Turkey have received orders to read a firman of the Sultan inviting the Rajahs to make a declaration of their sentiments. Assemblies have been convoked on the matter. At Dubitza, the firman sent to Fuad Effendi for the Vizir, was pub licly read. The chiefs of communes and rajahs have been convoked. The act signed by them is thus conceived : " The sovereign of the Muscovites demands from our august Monarch concessions which his Majesty cannot make under any condition. Neither the Turks nor the Rajahs can blame his Majesty. Honour to God and to the Emperor, in whose states our ancestors have lived, and who has granted to us the kindest protection. Like our fathers we wish to live and die under his rule, and do not wish to separate ourselves from him. We there fore praise our Emperor and will remain his Rajahs for ever." A special correspondent of the Times writes from Belgrade on November 16 :—" In the present highly critical position of affairs I have thought that I could not do better than attempt to throw some light on the affairs of the Servian Princi pality, whose frontiers touch Wallachia and Bulga ria on the one hand, and Bosnia on the other, and whose population forms that part of the Sclavonic elements of Turkey in Europe which has a national administration, as contrasted with the purely Turkish one of Bosnia, Bulgaria, and Macedonia, which latter province, with a sprinkling of Turks and Greeks, is substantially Serbo-Bulgarian, even almost to Salonica. The fortress of Belgrade, built according to European science during the Austrian occupation of Servia (1718-1741), instead of being allowed to fall to decay as it was a few years ago, has been carefully repaired by the Turks who hold it, and is well provided with stores and provisions. 2e4 cannon bristle on the walls, a large addition has been made to the reserve artil lery, and on the arrival of 200 additional artillery men now on their way from Widdin here the gar rison will consist of 2,h20 men. The governor is Izzet Pasha, formerly of Tripoli, who is in bad health, but intelligent ; lie is assisted by his son Ilaziz Pasl:a, a young man of talent, who speaks French admirably, and by a very energetic colonel of artillery. " I hope the peace of Europe will be preserved," said a r erson of conciliatory character and polite manners to Izzet Pasha the other day. ‘ 4 I hope so too," said Izzet Pasha, " after the war is ended." The garrison is in the highest state of enthusiasm, and impatient at remaining behind walls. There are to-day rumours in the Servian town that the Turks have been completely beaten, and have had to burn a bridge. Nothing certain is known here, but if the Russians come this way the fortress of Belgrade will give them some trouble. On the side of Bosnia the re lations are curious. Until within the last few months, Bosnia, in consequence of the conscription and taxation following on the introduction of direct imperial rule, was the most dissatisfiel province of tlie Ottoman Empire. The majority cZ the here ' ditr.ry Boys were in exile in Asia Minor, and the feudal system was broken up, as well as that quassi-independence which the Bosniacs enjoyed ; but since the affair of Montenegro they have had great apprehension of some Christian fusion, and their differences with the Porte have been forgotten. They have shown less readiness, however, than the other provinces of Turkey to send troops, saying that they must watch the Servian frontier, and last week a strong body of Bosniac militia actually moved on Uschitza, which brought out a force of 2,000 Servians to resist their passage, as Us chitza, although garrisoned by Turks, is within the Servian civil jurisdiction. The Bosniac militia, therefore, with the tacit consent of the Porte, con tents itself with the important duty of watching Servia. While the people of all classes are looking forward to some event which may transfer the Turkish fortresses in Servia to the national Servian garrisons, and preserve for them a position analo gous to that of Greece, the Prince is personally in disposed to break faith with the Sultan ; but if he were to lead out the national troops with the Turks against Russia they would not fire a shot for the Sultan. On the other hand, if the Russian party should seek to make Servia co-operate with an in vading force, the position of Servia would become very critical. Bosnia would burst on them like a thunder-cloud, while the Turkish resorves at Nissa and Sofia are at the gates of the Principality. All true Servians, therefore, view with anxiety the continued residence of M. Muschin here (for he is not yet gone, on the plea of having to arrange his archives and receive from St. Petersburg, 'via Vienna, by telegraph, the order to quit), and think that his remaining is more than Russia has a right to expect under present circumstances, even from the Russian party. FRANCE. The Emperor and Empress are to return from Fontainebleau to Paris on the Ist of December. Yesterday the Emperor reviewed the troops of the garrison of Fontainebleau, Melun, and other ad joining towns. The neighbouring brigades of gendarmerie were also present at the review. The circular of the Prefect of Police prescribing sanitary measures is very actively carried out. It is stated that several cases of cholera have already occurred in some of the hospitals, and a few in private houses. There does not, however, appear to be much alarm on the subject. On Saturday Vely Pasha went to Fontainebleau on the Emperor's invitation. The formation of the battalions of Chassem•s, an nounced in our edition of Saturday, is not the only measure that will be adopted in case of emergency. There is no ostensible movement at the War-office, or in the military establishments of France, that would attract public attention, but the moment that the requirements of the service render any additional measure necessary, there would be an addition of one battalion to each of the regiments of the line. The plan is already formed ; and, if the hostilities of which the Danube is the theatre take any further extension, the French Govern ment will not be unprepared for any emergency that may arise. It is considered that the Porte is, under present circumstances, no longer bound by those motives of delicacy or forbearance it has hitherto observed, and which have prevented it from employing in its service all the elements at its disposal • and we are informed that it h a s been stated on the part of the French Government, and perhaps on that of England, that there does not now exist any serious opposition to accepting the services of the Poles. There are, however, a few exceptions still, no doubt, to save the amour propre of one Power whose conduct has been hitherto of an equivocal character. Some Polish officers of distinction have already taken service in Turkey. The ilonitear announces that the Minister of the Emperor at Hamburg exchanged on the Bth with the plenipotentiary of the Grand Duke of Oldenburg, the ratifications of the convention for the protection of literary and artistic property con cluded between France and Oldenburg on the Ist July last. MARKET NEWS-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE. The country markets held on Saturday were firm for wheat, the prices of which had an upward tendency. Bar ley and malt were very dull, and drooping. Oats, beans, peas, and flour, the supplies of which were tolerably good, sold steadily, at extreme rates. The last advices from New York state that both wheat and flour were dull, and lower to purchase. Most of the continental markets have ruled steady, and the quotations have been fairly supported. Fresh up to our market last week the arrivals of English grain were somewhat on the increase. The imports from abroad have amounted to 34,582 quarters of wheat, 7,637 barley, 13,744 oats, 2,839 beans, 2,720 peas, 446 tares, 5,533 linseed, 2,271 rapeseed, 183 mustard seed, 273 sun dry seeds, 2,160 sacks and 11,133 barrels of flour. Fresh up, this morning, the arrivals of English wheat, coastwise, were very moderate, and greatly out of condi tion. By laud carriage the supply was comparatively small. Notwithstandi ng that the show of samples of both red and white was limited, the demand for all kinds, owing to the thin attendance of buyers, and the large imports of foreign wheat and flour, was in a very inactive state, at prices barely equal to those obtained on Monday last. In some iustances, very damp parcels were the turn in favour of buyers. For forward delivery next to nothing was doing. With foreign wheat we were rather extensively supplied, The transactions in red Baltic qualities were at full prices. All other kinds moved o ff slowly, at last week's currency. The arrival of floating cargoes off the coast continues small. Very few transactions were reported in them ; but no change took place in the quotations. We had a large quantity of barley on offer. The trade ruled very dull, at a decline in prices of is to, in some in stances, 2s per quarter. The demand for malt was dull, at is per quarter less money. The show was good. There was an extensive supply of oats on the market, sales progressed slowly, at Gd per quarter less money. Beans were in good supply, full prices. White pea s were i s l owe r. Grey and maple were quite as dear as last week. and moderate request, at The flour trade was dull, and American parcels were offering on rather lower terms. Paidj The Empress has given 6,000 f. to the Sisters of the Order of Saint Vincent de Paul at Fontaine bleau, for the repairs of the chapel of their hospital. In Paris on Saturday there was a repetition, if not a confirmation, of the intelligence, communi cated a day or two since, of the order sent to Omer Pasha to continue his operations wheresoever he may deem them most likely to be successful. It is said that his movement behind the Danube has been approved by his Government, who aro con vinced that his retreat was necessitated by the con centration of the Russian force near Oltenitza. That movement, not anticipated by the Russians, appears to have baffled the plans of Prince Gorts chakotr, and had forced him to adopt a new com- ' bination. For several days past accounts, rather contradic tory, have been in circulation in Paris of an armis tice, and of the continuation of hostilities. That contradiction may, however, be understood by the fact that there is no objection to negotiate, even though hostilities should not have ceased ; but there is another fact which, though not accurate in every particular, may yet be so in substance, and this is the existence of a new project of arrange ment. It is stated that this new project has been very recently adopted at Fontainebleau with tho concurrence of Austria and England ; that it is approved by Austria, England, and France ; that Austria pledges herself to use all her influence with Russia to accept it ; that if the Czar still holds out Austria will make common cause with the other Powers ; and that if he consent to accept it France and England pledge themselves to render it ac ceptable to the Porte. It is even said that an Austrian agent furnished with full powers has been in Paris for some days past, and that he left for Vienna on Friday night. The project in ques tion is said to be of such a nature as cannot be ob jected to by Russia, unless her intention be, what she has hitherto repudiated—namely, the flagrant and systematic disregard of all treaties and all in ternational law ; while by it the independence and integrity of Turkey will not be impaired. The plan must be, and doubtless is, one which will accurately define the limits between what is en croaching and unjust, and what Russia has a right to demand. Public securities again rose at the Bourse on Saturday, the speculators still feeling convinced that the English and French Governments will force the belligerents to accept terms. The Three per Cents. opened at 74f. 50c., and rose to 74f. 80c. ; they closed at 74f. 75c. for the end of the month ; the Four-and-a-Half per Cents. left off at 100 f. 10c.: Orleans Railway shares, 1,170 f.; Rouen, 1,045 f. ; Havre, 500 f. ; Great Northern, 870 f. ; Paris and Strasburg, 820 f. ; Paris and Lyons, 912 f. 50c. ; Lyons to the Mediterranean, 762 f. 50c. ; Western of France, 700 f. ; Bordeaux and Cette, 605 f. ; Great Central, 520 f. ; Lyons and Geneva, 522 f. 50c. ; shares of the Bank of Credit Mobilier, 722 f. 50c.

From Vienna a correspondent says :—More than meets the eye is evidently going on here, but this is the affair of the diplomatic world rather than of a public correspondent. For the last three days artillery, with the necessary men, has been for warded to Hungary at the rate of six-and-thirty guns a day. The Direction of the Northern Rail road has received orders not to send off any goods for eight days, as all the luggage waggons will be required to convey military stores to Hungary. What has occurred, or, more correctly speaking, what is likely to occur, it is out of my power to say, but the ninth army corps, which is stationed in this neighbourhood, has received orders to be in " Bereitschafe' (ready to march). Another circum stance, well worthy of mention, is that a very large order for arms has been given here by the Danish (?) Minister. SPAIN. The Madrid Gazette of the 21st, the only jour nal which appears on the Monday, contains no de tails of the death of the Queen of Portugal ; they have been held back in order to prevent any pain ful impression on the mind of Queen Isabella. Her Majesty was, however, to be informed of the death in the course of the day by the President of the Council of Ministers. General Narvaez, who was at Aranjuez,, was expected at Madrid to pay his respects to Queen Christina ; and about the 25th, it was his intention to leave for Loja, his native place. The Gazette was to announce, in a day or two, that the Queen had entered the ninth month of her pregnancy. Tfie Senateelected, on the 21st, its four Secre taries, three of whom were returned by the Oppo sition. M. Rius de la Vega was elected by '79 votes to 62 ; the Marquis de San Felices, by 76 to 50 ; M. Messina by 79 to 45 ; and M. Cantero by 75 to 45. The Three per Cents. were done at 41/ ; the New Three per Cents. at 211 ; the Debt of the First Class at 87 ; ; and that of the Second at 41. AMERICA. ARRIVAL OF THE AFRICA. LIVERPOOL, MONDAY, 1 A.M. By the steamer Africa we have advices from New York to the 16th inst. She has brought 70 pas sengers, and $500,000 in specie on freight. The steamer Baltic arrived at New York on the 14th inst. from Liverpool. The Africa passed the following vessels :—At noon, on the 16th, the Weal of Dublin, bound in. ; at 8 p.m., same day, the steamer rabia, from Liverpool, for New York; at noon on the 20th, the barque Renfrewshire, bound east ; at 7 p.m., same day, a steamer, bound west ; on the 27th, the Bonanza, steering east; and the Philanthropist, steering.west. New York was visited by a severe storm on the 13th. A large amount of property was destroyed, and several lives were lost. The Washington co/respondent of the New York Herald, writing on the 15th, says,— " There has been no regular Cabinet meeting held for some time, and it is probable the President will take all the week for the preparation of his message, with a view of submitting it to the Cabinet this week. It is known, from the President's declarations, that upon the subject of our foreign relations the message will fully emphasise the inaugural. There will be no unnecessary squeamishness in stating the simple American truth with regard to the nations of Europe, that while we seek no quarrel, we entertain neither sympathy nor love for any of them—not even for England—the country which always fawns on America when it is her interest to do so, but never loses an opportunity of injuring orma : ligning our people when it can be done with impunity. General Felix La Coste, Consul-General of France, expired at New York on the 14th inst. Havannah advices of the Bth inst. state that there was great excitement in the island. The re volutionary paper Vox del Puebla had again been published. Several arrests had been made, and rumours of revolt were current. It is stated that a vessel had appeared off Barracoa, at the east end of the island, and hoisted what appeared to be a a signal of distress, when, simultaneously with the hoisting of the signal, the fort was attacked by 70 men on horseback, who were repulsed, and about 30 of them made prisoners.

A despatch from Kingston, Canada, states that the bonded and several other large warehouses in that city had been destroyed by fire. A better feeling was apparent in the New York stock-market, and most descriptions had an upward tendency.

One of the vessels from Harlingen, the Lion, has brought not less than 1,071 head of stock—viz., 472 beasts, 535 sheep, 12 calves, and 52 pigs. This, we be lieve, is the largest number ever conveyed in one ship. For the time of year, the show of foreign stock in to day's market was large, yet a good business was transacted in it. There was a considerable falling off in the arrivals of home-fed beasts, fresh up this morning, compared with Monday last. Notwithstanding that the attendance of country buyers was by no means extensive, the beef trade was somewhat brisk, at an advance in the quotations of 2d. per 81bs, and a clearance was effected without difficulty. The best Scots were worth 4s 8d per 81bs. From Lincoln shire, Leicestershire, and Northamptonshire, we received 2,40) short horns, and from Scotland, per railway, 60 Scots. From other quarters, the receipts were limited. The number of sheep was very moderate ; nevertheless, the sale for all breeds was exceedingly inactive. In some few instances long wools were rather lower, but we have no change to notice in the general quotations. The ex treme value for the best old Downs was 5s 2d per 8 lbs. We were very moderately supplied with calves. The best veal was rather higher than last week, and the value of other kinds was well supporta. Pigs were in fair average supply and steady request, at last week's currency. Per Sibs to sink the Orals. s. d. s. d.'

Since the close of the public sales so little business has been doing in this market that the quotations are almost nominal.

Humphrey, the ticket collector at the pier, rowed a boat to the spot and brought the body. ashore. A shell was procured, and the body was re moved to the dead-house of Lambeth Church, in High street, Lambeth, where it now lies awaiting a coroner's inquest and for identification. The body was washed and the clothing searched in the course of the day, but nothing was found that would lead to the identification of the body, or the cause of the female's death. Mr. John Adamson, the summoning officer for Lambeth, forwarded information to Mr. W. Carter, coroner for East S urrey, and it is expected that the inquest will be held this afternoon. all all all all all all all all all all 651 llf 491 9 1 THE E. . -~.-~_~,,,a5,_.~... ~Q~~~: (From Af ! ,. .

If we are not, why, in the name of honesty, is our fleet in the Sea of llarmora? If we are, why, in the name of good faith, is onr ambassador at St. Petersburgh, and why are Russian frigates repaired in British dockyards ? Letters from Constantinople have confirmed our Bur. mise that another note had been despatched from our precious Cabinet for the acceptance of the Porte ! ! It was, of course, utterly disregarded. How long is this imbecility or treachery to be endured ? How long are the name and honour of England to be the playthings of drivelling incompetence ? There is now for this country but one course of honour, and, we believe in our hearts, but one course of safety. We ought instantly, and without the loss of an hour, to give to Turkey the most prompt, effective, and decisive support. The only question now to be determined is, whether the Emperor of Russia is strong enough to keep the Danubian provinces. If he is strong enough he will keep them, and the sooner the question is tried and the game played out manfully and resolutely the better. If our ships can burn his fleet in the Black Sea, they ought to do it. If they can take possession of the mouth s o f the Danube, they ought to do it. If they can harass or annoy his armies or his territories, they ought to do it. If the Turks or the Circassians want arms or ammuni tion, we ought to send them ; and if the landing of French and English soldiers at Constantinople can in the slightest degree aid the Turkish arms, our bravest regi ments and ou r b es t comman d e rs ought immediately to be on their way. The struggle is one of life or death to England. Eighty years ago Lord Chatham said he would not argue with the man who did not perceive the question of Turkish independence to be one of life or death to Great Britain. The battle of that independence is now fight ing on the banks of the Danube, and England is keep ing aloof—Lord Aberdeen wr iti ng notes, L or d P a l mer . ston endeavouring to re-instate himself in the good graces of continental intriguers, and Lord John Russell dreaming of a 51. franchise in towns. We have already stated that the English Cabinet has been within the last week o ccup i ed in the very honourable effort to restrain the French Emperor from taking that decisive course which the honour and interests both of France and England equally de mand. If the allied squadrons are not now i n th e Black Sea, it is because instructions from h ome have over-ruled Lord Stratford—if a French army is not now on its way to Constantinople, it i s b ecause the urgent representations of our Ministers have induced the Fre nc h E mperor t o sus p en d fo r a sho r t time that step. In what position is England thus placed, not only deserting the Porte herself, but depriving Turkey, at least for the time, of the aid of an ally, more honest and energetic than ourselves. We do not believe we can long do so. The wise mea sures of the French Government have happily relieved the apprehension of a scarcity of provisions which caused the only drawback upon the determination of that Government. The union of the Pretender and his Orleanist kinsmen, brought about by Russian and Austrian influence, has taught Louis Napoleon how lit tle his dynasty has to expect from the Absolutist So vereigns of Europe. The interest of his country and his dynasty is the same. The fortunes of the reigning family and the people are bound up togeth er i n resisting the dominion of despotism, which Russian ascendancy establishes. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.-(THIS DAY.)

It could not by h ave arisen from want of inclination for that . study, as vitshi is te. fully proved by the crowds now daily and nightly f " our i n g the above establishment, where themysteries formation are eloquently expl a i ne d by pr, erudite and able lecturer. Ladies . hav e a l so b ecome such diligent student s th a t i t has been found necessary to set aside a second day in the week for their admission, when, under the able direction of Mrs. Leach, they are instructed in the best mode of educating their children, and are also warned of the folly of many fashionable habits into which they fall. Every one should see this magnificent collection. ANDollee xtionA RAILWAY.--I am deli g ht e d to s in e e t t he ha tmule Invernessproceeding you atte r are of withand Nairnsuchprc-li R m a in d ary . vigour Only wo n d er to my mind is, that, with such ev7d a e y ni Thefaci lities, such potent resources, and an open field before you, the trains have not been running long ago. I think your prospectus the most modest and most candid I have ever seen. Were the line got up by London men, they would put down the expenses at half, and the profits at treble, what they are estimated at in the prospectus be fore me. Not dependent upon local traffic, although that, I am confident, will amount to double or treble what you have rated it, the statement is no less true in respect to the certainty of all the web of railways which may one day converge from the north, the south, the east, and the west, necessarily debouching at the Inverness terminus of the Inverness and Nairn line. I need not refer to detail. The prospectus is a more lucid document th an . one often sees ; and better still, it rests upon a forest of facts as strong and u nshakeable as a forest of oak s . I can conceive no speculation going more likely to tempt subscribers. It ought to be advertised in the Edinburgh Glasgow, and a bove all in the London papers, as 110011 as possible. The latter are crowded every day with rail. wa y spe culations, many of them of a most ti c kli sh nature. Introduce your candid and indisputable statement amongst the rude mass, and I warrant it will attract. a tt en tion, for it has truth and bona fide upon its fa ce.
