As an act of justice and sound polity towards France such a measure would have been as expedient and acceptable one hundred years ago as it is to-da. of iron and coals i have immortalised himself by LOUIS PHILIPPE might bllowin.r, a bold and comprehensive line of commercial policy; but his habits and views were of a different order. He was great in political intrigue, and - to' accom plish a coup de main was his gretitest ambition. His sons in the infancy of their iniblic career as sumed the airs and character of their father, and while one threatened, by a:variety of inuendoes, to invade England, another took up the. character of a great military leader, and embarked in the cam- paign of Algeria In each case ngland was deeply interested and, consequently, much excitement was produced in the public mind, and no inconsiderable increase in our military expenditure ensued. " France must wipe away the disgrace )f Waterloo," was the ORLEANIST war-cry, while LOUIS PHILIPPE had any point in view which he conceived to be necessary to the aggrandisement of the then existing dynasty. Intriguing and pamphleteering were the leading occupations at the Tuilleries froth the first moment of the ORLEANIST ascendancy down to the last mo ment of its existence. The means by which the .Spanish and Brazilian marriages, were effected be trayed a degree of apostacy which.stands unparal leled in history: And although their moral and political consequences must yet fall heavily on France, still the subversion of the dastardly policy which led •to the consummation of Louts PHILIPPE'S views will be one of the brightest gerns in the diadem of the house. of BONAPARTE. The f the heads of the hous 2S Of BOURBON recent union o and ORLEANS will soon call for an entire reversal of the policy of France, in Spain, Brazil, and the South American States. The BOURBONISTS and ORLEA:4IsTs are nothing more in France than two impotent factions, whose fusiOn, unaided by foreign sympathy, Could scarcely achieve the mas tery over one battalion of National Guard From nd, while, in order to counterbalance all foreign influences iave but little NI ' ALV ' ON seems disposed to •unite France to Ettgland as closely as possible, by meessions to one, and by promoting the al welfare of the othe The , precise'details of the proposed modification of the duties alluded to, have not reached this country, but it is understood that the reduction , on pig iron will be about £1 2s. per ton. On bars and rails the reduction will be £3 10s. per ton. On sheet iron the present duty, which is prohibi- tory, will be reduced to .t 8 per ton. The_ reduction on coals will be 2d. per 100 kilos. Now the imme- Won of this wise and humane measure towards France, will -be to stimulate production and to convince the French people of the gross in, ,justice and incalculable losses they have sustained by the old prohibitive regime. If ever a country needed materalising it is France: A highly inflated sense of honour, and a mistaken nationality has indUced the French to submit to an immense variety of cruel and impolitic imposts. France has less fuel than any country in Europe, and in Ord to sustain t tato by prohibitions, which wer€ conceived to be necessary, they remained silent under a pressure of personal and national incon veniences which would have driven other nations into repeated rebellions. Opening the mind of France to the advantages derivable from an opposite line of policy, will speedily lead to still further approaches towards free•trade. The powers of production at present possessed by France are enormous, but as she is the importer of the rawmaterial,which enters - into nearly all her productions, she requires the lowest possi ble rates of duty on imported products. A pro hibitive duty on silk, wool, flax, and dyo stuffs, would starve one-half of the French people. And pit because the peculiar character of the landed interest of France - requires a prohibitive corn law to sustain it, the whole nation would willingly suffer the greatest social destitution, sooner than: abandon a system of taxation which is essential to the existence of an imaginary advantage. To teach the French, therefore, to discriminate correctly in matters where the material interests of the nation are at stake, is a very difficult task. Fortunately, in the present instance, these interests Are but trifling, and the advantages to the commu The sufferings of the poor of France from want of fuel are but too wel known, and if England can be.the means of removq ng the fearful miseries arising from this source, both countries will have just reason to be thank- nity at large are immensE There are many, however, who take a widely view of th abject. In supplying foreign countries with those raw materials which give us the great advantages we have always possessed over nearly all the rest of the world, some political economists contend we are only curtailing our own trade and transferring our means of existence to others. This theory formed the gist of the pro tectionists' arguments which a few years have been sufficient to prove most fallacious. America sends us corn, sugar, cotton, and tobacco, and if the fact of her doing so has enabled us to'exist, in what way is America injured ? On the contrary, by finding a vent for her surplus-produce, she has gained vastly, and our prosperity has increased in the same ratio. So it will prove with France. Production and distribution are the great elements of a progressive civilisation. In England we are too far advanced to fear competition. Our artificial powers in both of these elements of great ness are too stupendous to be understood, much less surpassed by nations whose materialisation is only about to be commenced. Improvements in the social condition of France requires immense additions to her productive capabilities. Before she can supply her own wants, she must be a buyer and borrower from other countries, just as England is ; and if France increases the balance of trade in her favour, she can only do it by con tributing more largely to the wants of other nations. This is the very nature and essence of trade and commerce ; and it is a fortunate circumstance for the material prosperity of Europe, that the Ruler of France is directing his attention to subjects which really interest every people who believe civilisation to be something more than a phantom.

Owing to the inclemency of the wea ther the attendance was very limited, and it was deeme advisable to adjourn the meeting to a future evening. PUBLIC NursartoEs.—Last eveninc , a meeting, purporting to be one of Roman Catholics , for the purpose of refuting some argument advanced by Dr. M'Neil e , b u t apparent l y more for the purpose of increasing the funds of those who convened it, was held at the Concert Hall, Lord Nelson street. There was by no means a large attendance. • Mr. Morgan presided. Our reporter attended, but was refused admission until he had paid the entrance fee of 6d. Meetings of this class are becoming numerous in-Liverpool, and th e They are, in many public should be warned - . instances, made the instruments of supporting idle adven turers who prefer talk to work. MANCHESTER SIIAKSPERIAN SOCIETY'S PERFORMANCE, THIS EVENING.—We have much pleasure in informing our readers that this much-talked of performance, the proceeds of which are to be presented to the Blue Coat School, is certain to prove eminently successful to all concerned. Tickets have been issued sufficient for all parts of the house, and such has been the demand, that no money will be taken at the doors until after seven o'clock, when it is con fidently anticipated the theatre will be crowded by a large and most respectable audience. The " poetical address, ' written by Mr. James Bolton Rogerson, will be spoken by the author. SINGING IN TAVERNS.—In the case of Hall v. Green, tried in the Exchequer, London, on Wednesday, before Baron Martin, the charge was, that the defendant, who is owner of " Evans's," a hotel and tavern, under the Piazzas, Covent-garden, London, had used the place as a singing and music room, without a license for that purpose. The plain tiff, an attorney, claimed £lOO penalty. Evidence was given to show that there were singing and music in the house, and that paraes were admitted without charge, and only paid the " usual prices" for refreshments. The de fence was that those entertainments were subsidiary to the business of a hotel and tavern, and the jury found for the defendant. • OUR CONDEMNED Surps2—A writer in the Daily Haws, _ _ Captain Trelawney we believe, recommends that the con demned ships of our naval armaments, many of which were built only in 1845 however, during the De Joinville panic, will be sold for what they will bring, instead of being taken into dock and broken up to re-use the materials, as the pres ent practice is. This he contends will be more economical. He also recommends Sir James Graham to order a ship at a private yard, and to have one of the same capacity built at a dock-yard, and then compare notes of the cost. .

Up to the . 1.411,-no English or French ships of warhad gone into the Black Sea. On the 10th, 11th, and I.2th, there were heavy storms. Omar Pasha has received orders to continue the war with energy. JASSY, 11 The whole-of the Russian troops have left Jassy: Oste-1 Sacken's corps is not expected before Dec. 10th. The Russians have levied recruits from the inhabitants of the town and its environs. BUCHAREST 14 It is asserted that Gortschakoff intends attack 7 ing the Turks, since he has lately been instructed to conduct the war with energy and perseverance. It is also said that the son of Prince Vagorides has been arrested and.sent in chains to St. Peters burg, for having carried on a correspondence with Omar Pasha, and for having informed him of the movements of the Russian army. Six Boyards are said to have been sent to Siberia. They were found guilty of the same crime. • The Wallachian militia have been incorporated with the Russian regiments. VIENNA, 19. A telegraphic despatch from Hermanstadt, states that the - bulk of. the Russian troops are marching into lesser Wallachia. On the 15th, a Turkish corps attempted 'a surprise at Turnui. The Russians were on their guard, and the Turks were driven back upon Kalafat. In the Russian ariny there are frequent executions of would-be deserters. VIENNA, WEDNESDAY Reports fi;on Orsova of the 16th say that the Turks are withdrawing from Kalafat, in obedience to orders from Constantinople. The advance of the Russians from Krajova on Kalafat is confirmed. ODESSA, 10. The Russian war steamer Seaikale has gem Sown in the Black Sea; the men were saved. • The fortress of Isatchka has not been destroyed by fire. The Turks are throwing up new entrench ments. The Times states in a leading article that there is not a syllable of truth in the statement attributing the absence of the French Ambassador to " a diffi culty" between the governments of France and England. Count Walewsky left London last week for a few days, in order to attend upon his imperial master. He has already returned to his post, and that is the beginning and end of the story. The two governments remain as formerly, in complete unanimity of opinion respecting the interests of the Western Powers and of Europe, in the dispute which is now convulsing the East. What course of policy they may ultimately de cide upon adopting is a point which events must contribute, in a great measure, to explain. ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS The Russians had seized on many Wallachian Jews to cause them to serve in the army, but on obtaining a sum of money released them. In Asia Abdi Pasha and Schamyl are attempting to carry out a plan which shows that its author possesses' 'great political, military, and geogra phical knowledge. If the Circassian chief suc ceeds in his undertaking, Tiflis, and indeed the whole of Georgia, is in imminent danger. Prince Woronzow's line of retreat is cut off, and southern Russia much exposed. Ilussia is occupied at one and the same time on the Danube, in the Caucasus, in 'the Black Sea, and has besides to - secure its western possessions against the other powers. It is stated that Michael Obrenovitch was about to proceed to Constantinople to solicit the Porte to support his pretensions to Servia. As the Prince has many partisans there, the Porte may pro bably support him and thus counteract Russian influence in Servia. PARIS, WEDNESDAY—The decree in the Moni teur" has produced considerable sensation as being a proof of the emperor's determination to break up the .prohibitive system by degrees. The .fusion. of the Legitimist and Orleanist chiefs does not . excite much interest. Russian and Austrian in fluence are believed to have been active in the matter. According to the last letters from the Danube. The Turks still occupy the Island of Movkanon opposite Guirgevo, and were fortifying it. The Russians after having invested the latter place were not sufficiently strong to attack Mokanon. PENINSULAR MAIL, SOUTHAMPTON, WEDNESDAY NIGHT - - - - _ Arrived City of London steamer, which left Gibraltar on the 14th, Lisbon on the 19th, and Oporto on the 20th. The report of the Queen of Portugal's de ath, on the 16th, is confirmed. The infant prince did not survive. The king had resumed the regency. No fears were entertained for the tranquillity of the country. _ . vv The barque Brazilian, which arrived at Lisbon on the 7th, with coals from Liverpool, was driven from her anchorage, after partially discharging, and got upon the rocks within the bar, crew saved. The vessel has become a total wreck, and is advertised for sale.— From our Second Edition of yesterday. THE NO RT H ERN DAILY' Xl.O. 1000 each, it would give 6000 men, which is not improbable. - -- On the Russian left were three regiments of ca valry echelloned but of range, each - having' two There was likewise a body of Cossacks, to the amount perhaps of 600. The batteries were worked by sonic 300 gunners, giving a total of—at Ihe•medium calculation of the iufantry7--8900. men in the field. The Turks, if their report is to be trusted, had in the entrenchment three battalions and two com panies, amounting to 2400 men; and the gunners, 150, and the irregular cavalry as many more-2700 men. - On looking at the aboye numbers,-with the -re collection of the troops , •as they were in the field, the Russian 'force appears undervalued. Be that as it may, at one p.m. the Russian artillery opened its fire, and was replied to by the guns of the en trenchment, the guns of the battery at the ,eastern *end of the entrenchment before described, 'and by the guns on 'the right bank of the river. The cannonade was kept up most vigorously on either side. The Russians had their battery of position accurately placed, each aun being placed at an equal distance ; from its fellow '' —the fruits of good drilling. Their practice, as far as could be judged from this bank of the river, was most excellent, their shells bursting beautifully. They opened at a long distance, it is true ; but the guns- were no pop-guns to gallop with cavalry, hut 12-pounders, such as ars usually employed in similar cireum stances. The remainder of the artillery appeared to consist in the cavalry guns, or horse artillery, but attached in pairs to regiments of cavalry, as was formerly the case in most ,European armies. Two- of These guns• 'took as flanking a position as the Argisch river would permit them, but could not have caused much damage as enfiladers. On the Turkish right the' otherc our guns opened on the entrenehtnent. — At '2 10 p,m. the Russian artillery exploded one of the Turkish amunition waggons, or limber-boxes. At 2 15 p.m. the infan try made their appearance from the Turkish left, emerging from under cover of the wood, which they had most judiciously . occupied. This attack was seconded by the advance of the infantry on the Turkish right of the battery of position, and by the other regiments from the village. The chief attack, the serious one rather, being on the left flank of the entrenchment where it met the river —the only portion not properly completed. Their advance was steady ; the Turks plied the fireloek vigorously ; and after the enemy had got up to per haps fifty yards, they turned, and beat a retreat to their snug little quarters in the wood. They must have been very severely handled, as they were close under the muzzles of the musketry, whose every bullet surely found its billet. Just as they advanced, a second and a similar explosion took place in the entrenchment—sadly inopportune, as was doubtless thought by the Turk. The Russian artillery re doubled its fire, and the canonnade recommenced fiercely. It should have been stated that the bat tery of position had come up to about 650 yards, their shot reaching occasionally to the hither ward side of the Danube. About 3.10 p.m., a second attack of infantry was launched at the unfortunate little entrencl.ment, encompassed on three sides, as it appeared, by its enemies. Skirmishers were duly thrown out, and on a close approach were recalled. Be it understood that the in fantry advanced in columns on both occasions close on quarter-distance, very ridiculously, it is thought, though of course the world must bow to the supe rior knowledge and experience of such a military nation as Russia. The columns had not advanced many paces when they appeared overwhelmed with the infantry fire of the entrenchment, and the ar tillery fire of a battery on the right bank. They were thrown into the most complete disorder, and retired utterly discomfited. Again their artillery opened, and drove tunnels into the entrenchment, and continued firing for half an hour. On the re treat of the infantry, through the glass their dead could be seen in numbers strewing the ground. There could be no mistake about it, as there were hundreds of pairs of eyes that saw them, with or without the assistance of the telescope. A hearty cheer from the entrenchment gave vent to the good spirits of its gallant defenders, It was echoed by one from the side by the united voices of the Chief's staff and posse commitatus. The Turkish force was commanded by Halil Pacha, as lieutenant-colonel in the service, who, upon his presenting himself to Omar Paella, was made a fall colonel. One of General Prim's aides-de-Camp, Colonel Detente, was present in the action, and escaped unhurt The commander received a slight wound in the hand. The report ou the Turkish side is only 20; but this was an hour or two after the action, and many, who were then simply wounded, have since, poor fellows, left this scene of trouble. 'This morning (sth), it is stated that 1000 stand of arms have been taken. One half of the eleventh division of the corps crarmee contains the 21st Se limginski and 22nd Takut—they have four bat talions, each active. The numbers in the calcula tions above are therefore below the reality. IRELAND. [FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] DUBLIN, THURSDAY POLITICAL CHANGES.-It iS rumoured that the government have in contemplation the bestowal of a peerage on Sir John Young, and the appointment of Mr. John Sadleir,aS chief secretary, in his place. THE BOARD OF WORKS.—This body, one of the most unpopular in Ireland, haS• recently provoked foul censure by doing fresh wrong. A Mr. Malley, a mill:owner in Mayo, had his water-power seri ously lessened by the Board's operations, and brought his action for the daniage. He got a ver dict for .RNO. The Board appealed, and the verdict was confirmed in the Court of Exchequer. They brought a writ of error, and after preparing every thing for trial, they now withdraw; and let the ver dict stand. Mr. Malley has lost nearly 1,0001. in costs, to maintain his verdict, and cannot recover them from the Board. C fA)NMEL ELECTION.—Mr. John O'Connell has appeased the hostility of the League, and will be returned for Clonmel. If they really do take his profession ,of youth as theirs, it will be a satisfac tion to every sensible man, as all the pledge they could by any means extort from him, has been op position to every " bad measure"—a very safe pro mise. We may, accordingly, congratulate the country now on a total freedom from the " univer sal opposition" policy. . TlieaCcountsfrorti the provinces all concur in stating that the weather is favourable to harvest operations. In consequence of the threatening notice served on Mr. Ross, of Bladensburgh, Rosstrevor, near Newry, the magistrates of Lower Down have held a meeting, and have called on the government for aid in putting down outrage, in which, also, they solicit co-operation from the well-disposed. Sir John Young, chief secretary, has paid an official visit to Belfast. The guardians of the North Dublin Union. have declared a rate of 332 per cent. over last year, as they say, in consequence of the high price of provision?.

Charles Lane, rector of Wrotham, Kent, DETAILS OF TILE BATTLE OF OLTENITZA The special military correspondent of a London paper, writing from Turtukai on the night of the 4th, gives the following details of the battle which took place that day at Oltenitza, and will be read with intense interest. They are very vivid in lan guage and descriptions of positions. Yesterday, troops crossed hourly to the quaran tine station, with their entrenching tools. Boats laden with gabions landed them close by. The field of the telescope shows grey mites carrying grist to the mill in the shape of gabions. At the station, gabion after gabion may - be seen placed, gradually extending the parapet from the station to the left bank of the Argisch river. On the other flank the entrenchment runs down to the Danube. About one p.m. the Cossacks advanced on, the chasseurs covering the working party. A few shots were interchanged, and by two p.m. four squadrons of cavalry and two guns debouched from the vil lage of Oltenitza, with about 500 or 600 Cossacks in skirmishing order. They were making a -recon noissance, for as soon as they had received about six or seven shots from the Turkish artillery in the entrenchment, with a few from the right bank of the Danube, they retired out of shot, and remained on the same spot watching the Turks till nightfall. A. second regiment of cavalry, with two guns, like. wise made its appearance by a wood on the road to Oltenitza, as well as a regiment of infantry with the baggage. - - - On the- part. the Turks, a field battery of artil lery, and a number of boat-loads of infantry, were sent as a reinforcement. This evening the usual cheer by the Turkish troops at sunset was very marked and heaity, given as it was from either bank, and by boat-loads of the reinforcing troops. _ _ _ En passanCit may be mentioned that the Turk ish troops have every confidence in their present efficiency, in comparison to what it was during the last war with Russia; as well, indeed, as in the talent of the general who commands them—a feel ing which gains ground daily. That distinguished officer was heard to remark, what appears to be the unmitigated truth, that " things are changed now. Formerly the Turks drew the sword to make con quests, and in doing so doubtless committed great barbarities ; but now it was drawn in defence of liberty and civilization." This day (Nov. 4), I hope, will be memorable, as on it was fought as gallant an action as history can record. During the morning not a soldier of the Russian force was to be seen. The whole country was scanned by eager eyes straining themselves through every imaginable species of telescope, binocle, jumelle, &c. They, however failed in de tecting aught but an empty village, and an open plain. Later a cavalry picket was discovered; which led.people to suppose that they were not quite alone—a supposition most fully realised after wards ; for at about twelve, or half-past, the Rus: sians : gradually- led out their forces on the plain. Twelve . guns were placed as a battery of position, at about 1200 or .1300 yards from the quarantine station. Two bodies of infantry—it remains to be known whether they were regiments or battalions —placed theniselves under cover in a wood on the right of the guns—their right. On their left rear were two more bodies of infantry, and on their left two more battalions. Supposhag them to be of MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY EVENING.

The sales amounted from 7000 to 8000 bales, of which about 3000 were taken on speculation and for export. Our Share Market opened flat; but towards the ,afternoon it rallied, and closed firmly at our quota tions. In the Manchester market, the absence of any thing like a brisk demand for goods, and the con tinued distrust as to the Eastern war terminating either speedily or satisfactorily, have prevented both home manufacturers and exporters from ope rating beyond the smallest possible extent to-day ; consequently the dulness of our market continues Unrelieved, and prices are unimproved since Tues day. All descriptions of yarns and cloth the mar ket is full of, and they cannot be disposed of in large quantities, unless at a very considerable re duction on the prices even now current. _ The Manchester Corn Market was flat to-day, and the amount of business transacted was very limited. Wheat and Flour were without change, and holders were firm in demanding previous rates. Oats and Meal were in less demand, and prices could not have been sustained. There was a small demand for Malt.
