RUSSIAN CONQUEST
_AND DENATIONALISA-

TIOIV.

It is incredible how ruinous and demoralising the
Russian influence is on all the tribes subjected to the sceptre
of the white Csar. The manners and customs peculiar to the
country, which have occupied for centuries the place of
laws, vanish before the foreign intruders, without being
supplanted by anything better. The distinctions of good-
ness are effaced, and the bad is extended and generalised, as
the weed lexuriates everywhere with ease, while flowers and
fruit trees need careful training.
The Russians cannot ply this training, for they Dave never
shared in its beneficent influence themselves. They can
only multiply the primordial ids end burdens of the people,
without giving them a moral counterbalance.
The only things they bring with them Into the conquered
lands me new coercive measures from the old coercive state,
new forms of deceit, of falsehood, and of abuse of the church
for objects of police.
Following the course of thought, let us look, for a while,
at the two provinces lying nearest us here, Georgia and
Armenia, to which the Emperor, in exchange for all the
sacrifices wrung from them, has hitherto been able to offer
nothing but a French dress coat and the Russian language.
Whet advantage is it to these people, that, is order to
attain, conformably with the ruling prejudice, an appear-
ance of civilisation, they are forced into clothes and gloves
of French cut, at the expense of their own picturesque
national costume.—Bodensfedi's Morning Land.

THE CYCLOIDAL DREDGE.—A modified form of
the Cycloidel Digging Machine has been made applicable
to the purpose of deepening rivers or river-bars where
deposits have become an obstruction to the navigation. The
machine is a cylinder composed of any required number of
wheels revolving on an axle, each wheel being provided
with a number of prongs fixed at equal distances round the
rim, and each prong (capable of being detached at pleasure),
curved to correspond with the segment of the geometrical
figure called the Cycloid. The method of using the machine
is to attach it to a steamboat by chains or lines, and to
draw it over the obstruction which it is required to remove.
The prongs sinking perpendicularly ,n front and rising
behind at right angles to the line of descent, will lift the
deposit to a higher level and more rapid current, for it is •
well.
.

.ell .known fact that the velocity of a stream is.grearest at
tie surface, and decreases towards the bottom at a ratio in
proportion to its depth. In tidal rivers, or those against
which periodical winds blow, the meeting of the waters
occasions at such places a temporary stillness, during which
much mud is deposited ; salt water also raising with the
fresh, causes a still more rapid deposit. The proper time
in nearly all cases to use the machine will he when the tide
is falling or the current bearing outward.

SERVIA.

The attitude of the Salim government in rela-
tion to Turkey is now well defined. The following
is, according to the Augsburg Gazette, the reply of
Prince Alexander to the application of the Ottoman
Porte to declare himself on the conflict between it
and Russia :

Imperial Majesty,—l believe it right to soaks the follow-
ing reply to the letter which the Minister of Foreign Af-
fairs of your Majesty addressed to me on the 28th ult. The
Beryl= government will be always disposed to second the
Sublime Porte, as much at least as existing treaties per-
mit. But never can it submit toe thing which appears to
it incompatible with its duty. Such a circumstance pre-
sents itself at this moment in the sad dissension w Bich has
broken out between your Majesty and the powerful Czar.
May heaven cause this conflict to turn to the advantage of
your Majesty. But the Servian government cannot take
part in a conflict between the two powers that protect &a-
via. It can only adopt a policy of neutrality and jasper,
tiality. It results from that that the Servian government
cannot permit a body of troop. to cross its frontiers. That
would be contrary to the policy which circumstances com-
mand. The government of your Majesty will be obliged
to admit that in so acting the Servian government only
follows the counsels of moderation, and that they will always
serve it as a guide. To make its policy of neutrality more
energetic, it has given orders to all the inhabitants of the
principality to hold themselves in readiness to execute all
the orders it may transmit. Let your Majesty receive as
heretofore the assurance of my profound devotednese.

ALEIANDEII G EORO WIT6CII.

Yvagokowats, Nov. 6.
It is not known what resolution the Ottoman
government has formed on the receipt of this reply.
It is probable, however, that it will be contented if
Servia will act sincerely upon its professions, and
observing a strict neutrality itself, preserve its ter-
ritory inviolate.

TUE JESUITS EXPELLED FROM BADEN. The
Archbishop of Frieburg, has presented • protest to the
government of Baden against the expulsion of the Jesuit
preachers from the Grand Duchy. The minister of the
sovereign replies that the motive on which the government
acted was an evident intention on tLe part of the holy fathers
to circumvent the government and evade the law regu-
lating the settlement of religion% order in the territory of
Baden. The only guarantee which the government has at
any time for the behaviour of a foreign clergy is the confi-
donee that the archbishop himself will watch over them,
but this confidence, alas ! is gone, and the government can
no more allow thelesuits to settle within its jurisdiction.

SPAIN.

The Mroldo of the Bth states that M. Mendizabal
is seriously ill. The Espano says that the Council of
Ministers has resolved to abandon the prosecution
commenced against M. Olozaga for his address to the
electors. We read in a letter: "The Minister of
Marine has been to Madrid to consult M. Cortina on
the affair relative to the contract for coal for steamers
entered into in London. M. Cortina gave him a
written opinion that he had acted with perfect regu-
larity. This he presented to his colleagues ; but
they, thinking that M. Covina did not know all the
details of the affair, decided that the President of the
Council and the Minister of Public Works should
have an interview with that gentleman on the sub-
ject, and communicate to him all the papers respect-
mg it."

SHREWSBURY AND BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY

Yesterday, a special meeting of the shareholders of
this company was held at the London Tavern, to take into
consideration • prvosal for an atualcamation with the
Great Western Company. The meeting was very nume-
rously attended ; a great deal of strong feeling was exhi-
bited, and much personality indulged in, so that the de.
bating of the question before them did not terminate until
past six o'clock. The following is an outline of the pro-
eeedings.
The chair was taken by Mr. H. Linz, in the absence of
the Hon. Hebert Clive.
The ISECHZTAILT read the notice convening the meeting,
and the terms of amalgamation proposed, which have
already appeared in the Espress.
The CHAIAM•N moved resolution in accordance with
the terms proposed.
Mr. BADGER seconded the motion.
Mr. H. Scorn rose to move as an amendment "that the
offer of the Great Western Company, submitted to the
meeting this day, was inadequate; and that it was impolitic
and inexpedient to consider any arrangement with any com-
pany while the board of directors was constituted as it at
present was—(cheers)—and that this meeting be adjourned
to Monday, Oct. 24, at the Swan Hotel, Wolverhampton,
at 12 at noon."
Mr. ACLROTD seconded the amendment, and contended
that the shareholders ought to postpone the consideration
of any arrangement until they knew who were to carry it
oat.

After a warm discussion,
Mr. BAKER moved that the words "equivalent to
4 per cent., vis., 3i per cent. end half the surplus profits, be
added as a rider to the amendment.
.. After a further discussion as to the point of form in which
the question was to be put, and an effort on the part of Mr.
Gooch to get an adjournment, for the purpose of consider-
ing the proposition, but with regard to which be could not
get a hearing, it was arranged that the original motion
should be withdrawn, the effect of which was, that the
amendment fell to the ground.
Mr. BALER moved a resolution to the effect, " that the
proposition first made by the Great Western was in•
adequate, but that that made to-day of a flied dividend of
31, per cent., and half the profits, was one which ought to
be accepted, and If carried inta effect within a week, the
shareholders pledged themselves to accept it."
This was seconded and put by the chairman, and carried
by a majority on a show of hands.
A poll was then demanded by Mr. Collis, which will WA-
tins• open until the 19th instant,

jest quoted it will be seen bow the City Offleer of
Health has been disheartened by the manner in
which all his represeotations up to September, 1832,
were received. How was his renewal of these re-
presentations received at the Board of the City
Sewers Commissioners on Monday? Mr. H. L.

TAYLOR took in high dudgeon the warning about
the approach of Cholera, and the augmented
nuisances of Newgate-market. It " tended to alarm
the public;" and this was unnecessary blame Mr.
TAYLOR, and other members of court, "intended
visaing, in a few minutes, the sits of the new market;
where, &c." Will the progress of Cholera be
arrested by a " visit to the site of the new market,'
by the men who prevented it from being begun and
finished years ago? To do justice to the rest of the
Commissioners it must be kept in mind that they
compensated for this ebullition of a galled conscience
by passing a vote of thanks to their medical cfilcer ;
bat a still better testimony of their appreciation of
his services remains to be given by them—the prompt
adoption of his advice.
Luckily the outbreak of Cholera among us occurs
at so advanced a period of the year, that we may
hope its progress will be arrested at a comparatively
early period by the increasing cold. But unless the
breathing time thus afforded is wisely and strenuouly
turned to account, the increasing warmth of summer
will be sure to resuscitate the plague—as it did before.

GLOUCESTER MUSICAL FESTIVAL.

(rao OUR REPORTIIIL)
GLOUCESTER, WIDNISDAY.
The first evening concert was given last night at
the Shire Hall, which building contains a magnificent room,
capable of bolding 3,000 persons. As a commit room, how.
ever, it is not the best of the kind. The places an divided
into two classes, to which the admittance is half a guinea
aad 71. 6d. The coaeert room wee about three parts filled,
which is more than an average attendance for the first
evening. The colleen was, like all the others, a miscella-
neous 001, consisting of selections from operas, &c. The
only ezeoptioa—if that may be called one—was in the per-
formance of Msaddssohn's fragment of Loreley, an opera
which be did not live to complete, and which had
before been performed at the festivals of the three choirs

This morning broke with a thick fog, which, however,
cleared up two hour, before the opening of the cathedral
doors, and the sun shone brilliantly until mid-day. Carriages
were rolling into the streets from an early hour, and the
railway; brought a large number of visitors from neigh-
bouring town•. At the time of the commencement of the
sacred performances at the cathedral:every seat was occupied,
and the Sear, aisles, and western gallery were completely
filled. I learn, also, that neatly all the tickets for the re-
maining morning performances are sold, and en unusual
proportioned the concert tickets, so that the means of the
meeting is placed beyond all doubt. This morning was de-
voted to the performance of the Aid, of Mendelssohn,
and the cast MIS such a one es to ensure a certainty of a
most perfect performance, and such it proved to be.
The collection at the doors of the cathedral this morning
on behalf of the charity amounted to 2071. 1&.7d., which
is considered a large amount for the second day.

A ROMANCE OF LIVERPOOL.

There are events occurring around us every day as
strange as any that were ever coined in the i rain of the
noveist. Present things have not the enchantment of that
distance which gives such a colouring of romance to those of
the past ; hence tales that are listened to with indifference
at the period of their occurrence, in after years thrill on the
ear and awaken the hest feelings of the heart. We ques-
tion, however, whether any one will read the following
truthful and affecting facts without feeling touched with
their simplicity and beauty. About eleven years ago, long
before the gold discovery in Australia had startled the
people of England, end tempted from her shores some of
her best and worthiest sons, • silk manufacturer of Man-
chester (from personal considerations we suppress his name),
having failed in business, quitted his native country fir
that distant colony, leaving behind him a wife and two
children. To a sensitive mind, there is no change so
bitter as one from affluence to poverty, and so keenly
did Mrs. M— (for so we shall term her) feel this, that she
determined to leave the scene of her former prosperity,
and accordingly came to Liverpool, hoping among strangers
to bide her attired circumstances, and find a living by in-
dustry for herself end children. By the application of her
needle she endeavoured to keep gaunt famine from her now
humble hearth. Time flew on, end, although her husband
had promised to write and inform her of his success in his
struggles in a sphere so new, and cheer her with hopes of
returning fortune, no such tidings came, but after an ab-
sence of two years and a half intelligence reached her that
he had died in a strange land. Unused to the rough
labours of life, this was enough to fill with despair and dis-
hearten the most courageous. The presence of her
children, however, nerved her to fresh exertion. But
the unfortunate seldom find friends, and those little
articles, the wreck of other and better days, one by
one went to find bread for the starving chillreu. Even
clothes were sold to meet the demands of a hearties.; land-
lord ; but in the meantime the stranger in Australia had
prospered, and not only written to his faithful wife, but
cent her remittances, which reached their destination,
her whereabouts not being known. Every article of furni-
ture had been sold by Mrs. M., and there seemed for her
and her children but the last resource for the frientileu,
when the former unsuccessful merchant arrived in England
a wealthy man. Through a chain of circumstances the suf-
fering wife and mother were discovered, end ones again
raised to affluence, for besides 14,0001. which was showered
into her lap, large possessions in Australia are now held by
her husband. It only remain, to add that the now happy
family are about proceeding to Australia ; but the tale may
be relied on as one of the strange things told in connexion
with that colony and the eventful histories of families.—

EARLY CLOSING MOVEMENT.

The Early Closing Association received, last
night, a large accession of strength, and new impetus, from
a gathering in Crosby Hall of the young men employed in
the " Birmingham and Sheffield Wholesale Fancy Trudes,"
who met for the purpose—the first step they have taken to
join the movement in the metropolis—of uppointing a depu-
histion to wait upon the employers in this department of
business, with a view to inducing • more general adoption
of that "early closing" which is happily becoming more
and more the rule in many of the other trades in
London. Mr. Mechi, of Lesdenhall-street, with ex-
treme _ appropriateness filled the chair, and (being

received a fervour which indieitesiis 'popu-
larity among those who should know him best) made
a most effective address, plain and homely in style and elo-
quent from its simplicity, urging the principle at bars
upon grounds derived from his own experhuce as s trader
man and as an employer. In addition to Mr. Meehi, the
following empinyers (among others) were present: Messrs.
Wm. Perry, Wood, Titmarsh. and George, end reseintioas
sieved and seconded by these gentlemen were adopted; Mr.
Lilwell, the hon. secretary to the General Early Classing
Association contributing a speech detailing the general se-
pats and prospects of the movement, and statistics with
reference to the particular trade being furnished by Mr.
Williams, secretary to the special association. The meeting
wee adjourned to the 29th last., then to receive the report

GERMANY.

VIENNA, Sam 11.
The government publishes to-day the following
notification in the Gazette :
" A telegraphic despatch has reached the govern-
ment from Lieutenant Field Marshal Coronini,
Governor of the Servian Woiwodechaft, stating that
the Hungarian regalia have been discovered near
Groove, where they lay buried. The crown of St.
Stephen, with the orb, cross, sword, and sceptre, are
uninjured. The Governor has taken measures for
conveying hither these insignia, under fitting escort,
by the steamer Albrecht."
The precious relics are " uninjured ;" thus the
Austrian government itself vindicates the Hungarian
patriots from the aspersions which mean and
cowardly writers have thrown upon them.
London, England, 1853-09-15

ITALY.

The Piedmontese government has begun to put in
practice one of the boldest of its most recent reforms.
The Savoy Gazette states that the circular of the
Minister of War, which compels the Brothers of the
Christian Doctrine and of the Holy Family (lay
monks) to serve in the army, was carried into opera-
tion for the first time at Chambery. The Council of
Revision of that city declared Brother Monachon do
Bt. Ivoire fit for military service, and assigned to
him the regiment in which he is to be incorpo-
rated. We shall probably hear more of Brother
Monachon.

The Piedniontese Gazette of the 10th inst. announces
that the 16th regiment of infantry marched in the
night for the Plain of Marengo, and that all the mi-
litary posts throughout the city were occupied by the
National °nerd. - _ _ - . -

The Venice official Gazette of the 7th inst. pub-
lishes a notice of the Sequestration Committee, call-
ing.on tho persons who have any pecuniary claims
against the emigrants whose property was seized to
make them known within the delay axed by the
imperial decree. This notice contains the names of
30 emigrants whose estates are sequestered.
The Prefecture of Finance at Venice has issued an
order for the collection of an additional tax, like
that lately imposed upon the provinces of Lombardy,
in order to cover the deficit of 18.52. _

—.--.
We read in the Ticino Gazette, under date Faenza,
2nd inst.: . .

Last night a number of arrests took place, and several
houses were searched by the police at Forli. They are sup-
posed to be connected with the conspiracy discovered at
Rome, end the attempt directed against the life of the
Legate of Raven... The tax on trades, the payment of
which is rigorously enforced, appears the more onerous, as
the year is a bad one, and that the people are unable to pay
it. The R road is infested by banditti. The Aus-
trians declare that the measures to be adopted in conse-
quence of the high price of bread do not regard them, and
that they merely concern the municipal authorities.

MONTENEGRO.

A private letter from Trieste of the 23rd, confirms
previous intelligence of the compelled withdrawal of
the Montenegnns within their own frontiers, and
adds, that the mountaineers have suffered consider-
able loss in the operation, besides the destruction of
several of their villages. Omer Pacha was preparing
vigorously to continue the movement for the chastise-
ment of the Montenegrins, and intelligence of great
importance was looked for by the next Lloyd's boat.
The writer also especially cautions ns against the party-
coloured statements with which the Austrian press is
now supplying Europe on the progress of events on
the Montenegrin frontier, and adds, on the faith of
letters from Scutari and Antivari, that the recent ac-
counts of losses sustained by the Turkish army are
pure fabrications.

THE FATAL COLLIERY ACCIDENT NEAR BRISTOL.
—Banerot, JAN. 28.—The coroner's inquest, in reference to
the late fatal eccid.nt at the Shortwood Colliery, Mangots-
field, was this day resumed on the body of Bennett, at the
Bristol Royal Infirmary, before J. B. Grindon Esq., coro-
ner, and a highly respectahle jury, and appeared to excite
a good deal of interest. Mr. Bush, solicitor,
_attended to
watch the proceedings for the proprietors, and Mr. Cossham,
the acting partner, was also present. Mr. Mackworth, the
government inspector of collieries, attended by direction of
the Secretary of State for the Home Department, and took
an active part in the incp,iry, which lasted several hours.
Several witnesses were examiaed, and the coroner having
sammed up, the jury returned a verdict of "Accidental
death."

THE BUSINESS TN THE GENERAL POST-OFFICE is
getting of immense importance. It appears that the last
East India mail, which arrived at St. Martin's-le•Grand in
the afternoon, could not be touched that day, and the cor-
respondence for the provinces was not forwarded until the
morning mails were despatched the following day. Either
a larger building for the business of the General Post-office
will shortly be required, or a fall 'MIT of officials mast be
employed the whole of the day and night.

MINES.

FRIDAY EVENING.
A very large business continues to be done in
English mining stock, and the market is in a ro-
ma' hably buoyant state. A buyer of any largo num-
ber of shares must in all cases concede higher prices.
The prices ruling to-day are as follows :—Wheal
Buller, 1,100; North Pool, 323; East Wheal Rose,
255; Wheal Basset, 660; United Mines, 385; South
Frances, 182, 184, 192 ; Wheal Seton, 180 ; West
Caradon, 300; Halamanoing and Croft Gothal, 103;
North Pool, 323 ; East Wheal Rose, 255 ; Cefn
Bruno, 90, 91; Dolcoath, 54; East Tolgus, 341;
West Providence, 531, 55; Comford, 50; Cura Brea,
8,5; Tremayne, 29, 30; Pen-y-Gelli, 27, 28; Alfred
Consols, 161, 1, 17}; Wheal Uny, 141, j, 151;
North Buller, 101; Spearne Consols, 101; Wheal
Exmouth and Adams United, 71; Wheal Cupid 8;
Tamar Consols, 61; St. Aubyn and Grylls, 71; Kil-
bricken, 41; Alten, 51; St. Day United, 31; Bo-
ringdon Consols, 615.; Tavey Consols, 31; Wheal
Victoria, 145.; Wood Mine, 65.; Langford, 11;
North Robert, 7 ; Vale of Towey, 345. ; Nanteos,
; Wheal Norris, 32a. 6d., 355. ; North Damsel,
355.; Cubert, 2; Wheal Peru, 11; East Wheal
Vor, 11.
The preferable descriptfohs of gold mining shares
were firm to-day, owing in some measure to a scarcity
of shares for the settlement, a fact which is indicative
of the bears having assisted the late decline in this
market. Port Phillip shares improved, closing 1 to
11 prem. Thu less accredited adventures, however,
were fiat. Waller shares were forced np to 2 prem.,
owing in part to a scarcity of shares for delivery.
Some of the recent buyers, it appears, have lent
shares at Ito 3-16, " backwardation." The rise in
these shares is viewed with great suspicion in the
Stock Exchange, and many of the principal dealers
consequently refuse to touch them.
The non-official quotations are : Peel River Land
and Mineral, 9to 1 prem.; Golden Mountain, & to k
dia. ; Anglo-Australian, par to prem. ; Garnett
and Moseley, .1. die. to 1 prem.; L'Aigle d'or, par
to k prem. ; Monarch, par to / prem. ; Union Gold,
1 to 1 prem.; Adelaide Land and Gold, 1 dia. to
par.; Australian Consols, par to 1 prem. ; Worthing,
3,1; Barcena Range, 1 to 1 ; Jamaica Copper,
Ito 11 prem.; Kenmare, 1 to 1 prem.; Car
berry West, par to prem.; Glenaulin, par to /
prem.; Connemara, 1 to 1 prem.

MR. GLADSTONE AT OXFORD.

On Thurstisy some friends of Mr. Gladstone enter-
tained him at luncheon in the hall of Balliol College. His
health having been drunk, he made a speech, in tho course
of which he said--He would venture to say that, if the
House of Commons afforded any criterion of public opinion,
I that opinion was, en the whole, friendly aml respectful
towards the University, but that the retaining of that confi-
dence and respect depended much on the course now taken
by the University itself. There were resources, both pecu-
niary and moral and intellectual resource•, which were not
brought to bear on the proper work of tie University, and
which might be brought to bear upon it by such improve-
ments as had already been commenced in some of the col-
leges. With respect to that within whose walls they were
assembled, he could say with satisfaction that he believed it
was doing nearly the utmost that could be expected trona
the means it possessed. But it was well known that in
other cases there were large resources not hitherto so use-
fully applied, and he trusted that all would cu-operate in
the endeavour to justify themselves in the eyes of the
country by making the best use of their means for the ad-
vancement of education. If the University would do its
duty in this respect, especially by extc►ding its advantages
to more of the classes it now receives, and to as many as
may be practicable of other cluses, who partake less of its
benefits at present, he felt confident that the country and
the parliament of England would maintain its independ-
ence, and would only desire that it should continue to put
in practice those fundamental principles on which it had
ever hitherto worked, of the authoritative inculcation of
religious truth, and something like a domestic superintend-
ence of pupils. But the continuance of public confidence
depended on the course now pursued by the University.
For himself, however be might fail of his duty as the re-
presentative of the University, it could not be for want of
an affectionate regard for its interests.

SHARE LISTS.

FRIDAY EVIININO.
The railway market showed an upward tendency
this morning, but sales were renewed at the higher
quotations, and prices fell back. At the close, East
Lancashire, Edinburgh and Glasgow, and Great
Southern and Western of Ireland were dearer, and
Manchester and Sheffield cheaper. The speculative
tendency to sell on any rise continues in this de-
partment. The market closed Bat.
French shares were very strongly supported till
three o'clock, with a general upward tendency, but
in this market also flatness was observable at the
close.

THIS DAY.—Two o'CLocK.

The raile47naiVei is very duili74;;, and prioes
remain as before. With the exemption of a slight
decline in Caledonians, there is nut the slightest fea-
ture to notice, a general indisposition to operate being
shown.

French shares have not fully maintained the prices
of yesterday, Sambre and tense are steady.
