The English Railway Share Market presented little variation of importance, and general attention was chiefly directed to the final arrangement of the account. Business was transacted on a basis which is looked on as satisfactory, some extent of stock having been absorbed. The prices, with few exceptions, are much the same as Saturday.

The funds were steady at yesterday's improvement, until near close, when some depression occurred. The letter of the Emperor of the French to the King of Sardinia failed, as has lately been the case with all the Im perial manifestoes, to exercise any decided influence. The demand for money was more active. Little or nothing now done under 24 per cent.—Times. The funds to-day, though inanimate, were steady at yesterday's improvement. The increased demand for money continued to-day, both at the Bank and in other quarters. No business appears to have been done below the Bank minimum. About £5,000 in bar gold was withdrawn from the Bank to-day for transmission to the Continent. On the other hand, about 30,000 English sovereigns, ex the Maid of Judah, were paid in. Govern ment will despatch £350,000 in silver to the East, by the steamer Indus, on November 4.—Dally News. Melburu and White, merchants of Cheapside, were adjudicated bankrupts on Saturday. Debts about £30,000. Stock has been removed and the bankrupts are absent.—Times. STAFFORDSHIRE IRON TRADE AND METAL MARKETS. In his weekly circular of Saturday, Mr. Samuel Griffiths says :-The calm referred to in our last still continues in the Iron trade of these districts, and some of the second-rate manufacturers begin to complain of the scarcity of orders for Malleable Iron. The orders from the United States are meag re aga i n thi s wee k, an d the general opinion now appears to be that no improve ment will take place in the demand for the States during the present autumn. Very few orders have come to hand this week for Sheets, and on the whole trade must be reported less active than it was a week since. Th e eminent firm of R. Napier and Sons, of the Govan Yard, on the Clyde, and Mr. John Laird, the well-known iron ship builder, of Birkenhead, have each taken a contract under the Government, which will consume 10,000 tons of iron ; and when these contracts are given out (8,000 tons of which are plates 41 inches thick), considerably more activity will, no doubt, for a time, be imparted to the mills and forges of the leading firms of the South Staffordshire district. The Glasgow house has likewise on hand an order for twelve pairs of 80-horse marine engines, and six pairs of 200-horse power, and two pairs of 500-horse power each ; all the above engines are for vessels of war, besides two screw-steamers now in hand for the New York line, and a large steamer of 1,200 tons burden for the Russian Government. The official list of prices of Finished Iron is as follows :-Common Staffordshire Bars, £7 lOs , at the works ; best Bars, £8 10s. ; Sheets, £9 ; Doubles, £lO 10s. ; Nail Sheets, £8 10s. ; Latin, £l2 ; Boiler Plates, £9 ; Best and Best Best in proportion ; Common Rods, £7 10s. ; Hoops, £8 10s. ; Gas Strip, £8 ; Canada Plates, £l2, and all other sorts in propor tion.

At the Swansea ticketing, on Tuesday, 1,395 tons of ore were sold, which, com p a red with the last sale, shows an ad vance in the standard of £5 15s, 6d. ; compared with the corresponding sale of last month, th e advance is £7 17s. 6d. in the Standard. Tin Both English and Foreign languid. Banca quoted £l3B ; Straits, £133. These prices must be considered nomi nal; public sales this week realising £132 10s. to £133.

The monthly returns of the Board of Trade show th a t the exports f or i„ - ne month, of September were o f th e va lu e o f 1, increase.of 8 4 per' cent. ov e r th e ' 631 426 ..orre,spon d' ing - .non of last year, and upwards of ^, n . per cent. over the exports for September, when the depressip; in fluences of es the comm - themselv. F (dal crisis had scacely manifested exports ar- -I.IM test nine months of the year the near , 3,037,111, an increase over last year of -4 14 per eent., and 2 per cent. in excess of the very Ittrige worts of the first nine months of 1857. Nearly half the total increase both-for the month and the nine months, arises from the increased export of cotton goods. It will be seen that the only kinds of Iron in which there is a less amount exported than last year, are Pig and Cast Iron.. The former is not largely exported from South Staffordshire, and the decline in it is due to the less quantities taken by Prussia, Holland, and France. In Cast Iron there is a remarkable decline for the month, which is occasioned by an extraordinary falling off to the East Indies and Australia, which were last year taking an enormous quantity of cast iron. As compared with last year, the- increased export of. Iron and Steel to the United States is remarkable ; the total of all kinds sent to that country in the first nine months of 1858, was of the value of £997,124, and this year, £2,339,390, an increase of £1,342,266, which is considerably more than the whole increase, in the export of Iron and Steel to all countries; so that had the United States only taken as much as last year, the returns for these metals would have shown a considerable falling off, as compared even with the depressed trade of 1858; when it is remembered that the exports to the East Indies have been considerebly above those of last year, it will be seen how great has been the falling off to other markets, especially to the Continent. In view of these facts, a diminution in the demand for the United States always assumes a serious aspect in , relation to the •Iron trade. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET.—OCTOBER 31.

We gave, at considerable length, the American news by the Canada in our later editions of yes terday, by which it would be seen that the negro insurrection in Maryland and Virginia had been suppressed, though not till the insurrectionists had levied contributions on the hotels and provl- sion stores in Baltimore and some other places, shot several persons, and otherwise 'committed dreadful havoc and onslaught. The insurrection appears to have raged the most furiously at Harper's Ferry, where, however, as at Baltimore, it has been effectually crushed. The object of the negroes, evidently, was to make a desperate effort to regain their freedom. The outbreak is one which ought to read a deep lesson to the slave States. The news by the Overland Indian mail, which we were enabled to give in a third edition yes terday, and which we repeat to-day, had been partially anticipated by telegraph; yet it com municates some interesting details respecting the armies of Bengal and Madras, which are in process of dissolution. It appears that the dis charged Europeans were leaving Calcutta at the rate of about a thousand a week. Regiments were being re-organised in Calcutta, and else where, for despatch to China. By the same mail, we have further intelligence from China, which is by no means satisfactory. The Chinese Govern ment is evidently not disposed to give effect to its treaty with us. It is stated, in letters from English correspondents, that the intentions of the Chinese with regard to the 'treaty are doubt ful;. but the fact of ,Mr. Ward having had a sealed paper handed to him, purporting to be a ratification, in four words, " This - treaty is useless," would seem to leave -no doubt that the Chinese do not intend to fulfil it. At Shanghai and at Canton all was quiet, and the tea market remained but slightly affected by the unsettled state "of ourrelations with the Government. Those portions of the Paris press which venture to make any comment on political affairs, not strictly in accordance with the Imperial mind and will, are receiving warnings, the meaning - of .which cannot be 'mistaken. To say anything against the late war in Italy, or to point to any of its unfavourable influences, is evidently con sidered a high crime and misdemeanour by the French Government. Our great Conservative Banquet of Saturday last has been very fully reported in the London daily papers, most of which have also made it the subject of leading articlel: The reniirk of the "Limes, Limb Lite uuniousultuun than personal, is perfectly true ; although, at the same time, it cannot but be regarded as " a great high compliment to a and honourable statesman, and a testimony of affection offered by his neigh bours to an able and illustrious nobleman." Such is the generous expression of the leading journal. The Morning Herald's idea of it, as affording proof " of the deep hold which the Conservative principles have on the heart and mind of the people of England, and the prospect of ultimate triumph which it xeveals," is equally correct. The strictures of the Daily News and the Morning Star upon the moderation of Lord Derby's speech, and its sup posed indefinite "utterance of principle," as well as absence of any positive pledge for the future, are in accordance, no doubt, with the views which thOse journals reSpectively take of the present position of the Conservative party. But in no quarter is the Banquet regarded otherwise than as a great political demonstration in favour of the Constitutional cause. According to telegraphic communications re ceived from Paris, the letter alleged to have been written by the Emperor of the French, and which we published yesterday, is considered in the political circles of the French metropolis to be quite authentic. Through the same media we are also informed - that a considerable improve ment has taken place, within- the last few days, in the silk trade of Lyons. To-day is the period for determining, by the result of the, muniCipal election, whether the affairs of . the town of Liverpool are to be placed in the hands of a Radical clique, or to be con tinued, as for many years past they have been, ußder the wise and salutary mana gement o f the Conservatives. The electors have the matter en tirely within theirown power and accordin g as they give their votes to-day will be the issue of this important matter. Let the Conservatives bear this in their memory, and be early at the poll. Success will crown the efforts of those who act with sufficient energy and promptitude. The -question of Italian independence, and the annexations to the kingdom of Sardinia does not appear to have made much progress in the way towards a settlement. The .Sardinian Cabinet declares that the diplomatic arrangements at the Zurich Conferences haVe been exceeded, and that they are, consequently, no longer binding. It is further said that they are prepared to resist a carrying out of those arrangements, by force of arms, if they be persisted in. A LAST word with the Conservative electors who have important duties to discharge this day. On Saturday there came among you- 7 -collected from all parts of the country, and even from other countries—the great Parliamentary expo nents of your political principles, the political chiefs to whom you look up for counsel in diffi culties, and for assistance in all the dangers and emergencies of the State. Your leaders and yourselves were pleased with each other. You had confidence in each other. You exchanged the promise of a strong mutual sympathy. You who signed the address to Lord DERBY,—seven thousand of you,—and who were represented by some thousands of your compatriots, the very largest number whom the place of assemblage could accommodate, were of one heart and one mind on the great subject which pointed the eloquence, and elicited the enthusiasm of that day. Now, was that enthusiasm real ? Were those plaudits mere " mouth-honour?" Was I TOTAL SUPPLY. 6540 I Sheep, foreign, 1790 Calves Foreig*..... „ foreign Sheep 28620 Pigs „ Foreign.

The Times considers that the Emperor's letter denotes so completely a foregone conclusion, that there can be no advantage or dignity in deliberation. The Daily News remarks on the tone of the Emperor's letter as if it were addressed to a despotic sovereign, and points a moral to it by asking a simple interroga tion :—How long is parliamentary government to be suspended in the sub-Alpine Kingdoms ? THE FRENCH PRESS. PARIS, Monday, Oct. 31.—The Moniteur , of this morning contains the following notice :—The Correspon dence has received a first warning for an article by the Count de Montalembert, entitled Pope Pius the 9th and France in 1849 and 1859. The Jfoniteur states the reasons of this advertisement viz., that, in condemning the war carried on by France in Italy, as having caused the annihila tion of the temporal authority of the Pope, the article has quite distorted the results of the war, and calumnia ted the policy of the Emperor. It is also insulting to the nations allied with France, and the companson which the writer of the article designedly and offen sive_ly makes between the names Machiavelli, and those of Napoleon 111. and the King of Sardinia, is detri mental to that respect which is due to the Emperor. The Attie de la Religione has also received a first warn ing, for having published the above article of the Correspondence in its columns. ' - The HT' 4 .

' Short letters are encouraged on matters of public intend. They should be legibly written onone side of the paper only. Under no circumstances can we insert communications not accompanied by the author's real name and address, not necessarily for publication, but as azuarantee of good faith. that profession of sympathy merely a pretence or a momentary and factitiou§ excitement ? We do not believe it. We do not believe that you met together in crowds that day, merely to pay a personal compliment, however highly deserved, — to testify mere personal admiration for a worthy neighbour, a distinguished noble, or a great ora tor, however suitable was the object. We lA lieve that it was not merely, and not chiefly, as a Lancashire landlord, that we poured 'forth our congratulations upon the head of our State-sit:lan guest, hut as the chief and representative of the great. Conservative party. Now, we said we, the leaders and the follow ing, were on the whole satisfied with each other, —trustful, at all events, in each other. We, for our parts,'were impressed with a sense of Lord DERBY'S great and honourable services, in the last crisis of the Constitution. We approved his management pf political' complications; we deeply sympathised with him—not on his account, but for the cause's sake—in the governmental defeat which very crooked tactics prepared, and which no prudence and no virtue could avoid. And, above all, we resolved, there and then, as one man, to look forward, with steady gaze, to one issue—to labour for one great hope,—thc return of the faithful servant to his post of duty—the natural ascendancy of those principles which had been manoeuvred into the " cold shade." We have SAID all this. Our words, and our cheers,—our warm and sympathetic glances—our smiles of pride and mutual shakings by the hand, meant all this, and meant more where they could not articulate. Now, to day there is some thing to DO. You who say, that a Municipal Election is no stage which you can dignify or exalt by steadfastness to political principle, have no share in the enthusiasm of Saturday. You whom the loud blast blown by your adversaries in every corner of almost every Ward in the town, is unable to rouse from your slumber, or awaken to a true sense of the real character of this con test, have no share in the enthusiasm of Saturday. You who withdraw or withhold your vote from an honest and worthy Conservative because of some personal pique or petty jealousy ; or of some personal regard and private interest challenged by his opponent, and the opponent of your principles; have no share in the enthusiasm Of Saturday. You who are moved to the r,ejection 'of useful though less assuming candidates who sympathise with your principles, by the claims of mere talkers and busy-bodies, the aim of whose public life is to keep themselves con tinually before the public, or to seek a cheap and questionable popularity by poking their noses into every corner of the muni: cipal system, and are nothing but Doctor Syn taxes on the perpetual hunt after small abuses and irregularities r anticipating, and thereby spoil inv., the mature and steady - labours of well informed and judicious reiormers,—you wno wil fully forget that these men are applying the same temper of mind, the same principles of violence and change, exerted in the spirit of the same ultimate aspirations and designs, to munici pal affairs, as their prototypes to national,—you, in short, who feel no interest in the maintenance of that conservative ascendancy which has hither to in some degree moulded the character of our local Parliament, have no share in the enthusiasm of Saturday. Or if you had, it was the share of men without heart, without purpose, without manly convictions. It was the testimony of frivolous, or pusillanimous, or dishonest men, whose support is a degradation, or an incum brance, or a sham. It was the share of the weak and unmanly; or the dissembler and hypocrite. Let no one say : " I will just for this once, vote for my particular friend, or my social neigh bour, or my client in trade, or my associate in objects of public service or private amusement." Though the " law" renders re-election necessary ; previous possession is " nine tenths" of, at all events the prestige, and the influence. If You put a Radical in a Ward, ten to one—or at least there are odds, in the most hopeful cases—that you saddle it with him for election after election. And, perhaps, confidence in his position leads him to develop, more and more, the principles—per hais democratic, or anti-Church—whose moderate expression or absence of obtrusiveness at first mollified the abstract opposition to which you were personally disinclined. And the danger, too, goes on deepening and extending, that his principles may reflect themselves on his constituency; that the ignorant and the weak may be reduced under his influence ; and that contests more important than municipal ones, may be thus seriously affected. If Conservatives, then, be manly, and believing, and hopeful, let them go this day, and do their duty. Let them not postpone their earnestness and zeal, to what they call a great contest, where they say great principles are at issue. The most important of our duties are generally those nearest us; obscure perhaps, inattractive, blow ing no trumpet, making no loud complaining in the streets; possibly lying under our feet. Let us this day, after the high enthusiasm .4 last Saturday, stoop for this one and take it up. This is the prelude to greater things. The good work of Tuesday will at least show that the faith of Saturday was not barren or alone. vading e ni,mbyy ; what excellent""buht d THE member for West Surrey, Mr. H.

It is, however, this very ""forking out," as h e. terms it, which JOHN BRIGHT, and the cheese -par' ing Manchester party, do not like ; and, rather than undergo the patriotic process , they vc 010 state, and reduce our naval and military arma ments and forces.- It. is well known that England enormously rich, and the amount of the increased` income-tax paid by the agricultural and 11401- facturing interests of this country, was a sillu much larger than would be sufficient to k ee p an efficient force, without any redu ction. of the personal comforts of the commu nitr " The inference, therefore, is very just, that we ought not to pay our soldiers and sa ilors grudgingly; and certainly, not to lay out 4°ll our defences with a mean, niggard, penuri oc ' and miserly hand, less than is required to afford us security and protection; The remark of Lord be PALMERSTON to Mr. BRIGHT will, doubtless the recollection of most of our readers. I li° lordship said he believed the • - member for Of ; mingham made everything so much a matte r leave our national defences in an in efficient s. d., that he would make it a-subject of cal °. lation whether it would cost less to admit all invading force to take possession of the cotelti or to have a force established to resist it ; an d 0 , which ever side the balance fell, he felt convi nced the hon. member, being devoid of any patriotilli or loyalty, would decide in favour of that wh ic a would cost least. And yet, with such an Or li % as this, Lord PALMERSTON woos and accepts ° support of JOHN BRIGHT and his party of thirty the estimated number which he sways, litt i into which he has inspired his democratic °I republican principles. n aa Happily, however, the country is not disr to take the same paltry and unpatriotic c ieß ro , as the Manchester politicians, and verb' P re , perly insists on carrying out those P e a parations which were so wisely ini tiat r i by Sir JOHN PAKINGT ON, when First 1 ) ° 0 , , of the Admiralty. The question is not l e j therefore, whether money is• to be d ec° to the purpose of placing our national defence'be a proper, condition, but rather how it is t° 04 best spent, so as to realise what we' desire. t/13 this point. there may be, as indeed there are'lle variety of opinions, especially with regard to elf most important branch of the Service , anejsciti the Navy.
