LATEST FOREIGN NEWS.

FRANCE.

The Ocean Squadron arrived at Brest on the
26th inst.

M. Magnan, a French officer attached to the
army of Omer Pasha, has gone to Constantinople
on sick leave.

The publication in an official shape by the
French Government, of the dispatches announcing
the commencement of hostilities on the Danube,
has given great offence to M. de Kisseleff, the
Russian Minister at Paris. The relations between
the Russian and French diplomatists are becoming
daily less cordial ; and if they should continue on
their present footing, it is probable that M. de
Kisseleff will not remain long in Paris.
Marshal Valliant is now spoken of as the suc-
cessor of M. do la Cover at Constantinople.
On Thursday a rise took place in the price of
corn in the Paris market, to the extent of 2f. the
sack.

A letter from Tunis announces the sudden death
of Mr. Heap, consul of the United States.
A letter from Marseilles, of the 24th, states that
Cardinal Wiseman, who alighted at the Hotel des
Ambassadeurs, after receiving the members of the
Catholic clergy of that city, had embarked for
Rome in the Mongibello, and not for Greece, as
had been stated.

It is said that the Municipal Council of the city,
of Paris, becoming uneasy at the extraordinary ex-
pense entailed on it by the indemnity which it
pays the bakers for the bread sold at a reduced
price by the command of the Government, is about
to submit a plan to the Emperor for the reduction
of the public works in Paris, and likewise for per-
mission to contract a new loan.

It appears that some of the Polish refugees in
Paris have applied at the Foreign-office for pass-
ports for Turkey, which have been granted, but
on condition that the parties shall not return to
France.

The following telegraphic dispatch has been re-
ceived in Paris from Marseilles :
" The French and English fleets weighed anchor and
quitted Besika Bay on the 17th inst.
" The Friedland, which quitted the port of Constan-
tinople after having been repaired, has gone to join them
at Gallipoli.

" The Sultan has reviewed a body of 26,000 men,
who set out immediately afterwards to reinforce the
army of Asia."

The announcement in the Moniteur of yesterday
morning that hostilities had commenced on the
Danube, produced an unfavourable impression
amongst the speculators at the Bourse yesterday.
The Three per Cents. opened at 72f. 5c., rose to
72f. 10c., fell subsequently to 71f. 70c., and closed

A STLEY'S.—This national amphitheatre continues
its proSperous career. Although we have Drury-
lane converted into a circus, the amphitheatre
seems to stand alone for equestrian entertainment.
Miss Kato Cooke has made what would theatrically be
called a legitimate hit. She is a most graceful rider,
and manages her horse, a beautiful milk-white charger,
trained expressly by her father with great skill. The
daring act of Miss Emily Cooke is quite the theme of
admiration. We have to record the death of a cele-
brated equestrian clown, Mr. Edmund Jackson. He
was a "fellow of infinite mirth"—a great favourite
at Astley's, and at most of the provincial circuses.
He expired on Monday last, after an illness of
two years He was
.a Brother Mason, a Druid, a For-
rester, Odd Fellow, and Old Friend, and connected
with nearly every benefit society, constantly endeavour-
ing to increase their funds, for which he held many flat-
tering testimonials. His long illness has left his wife un-
provided for. Mr. Cooke has generously given the use of
his theatre for the widow's benefit, on Thursday, Nov. 10
when we hope the brothers of the craft and societies
will mister on the occasion.

PRESTON.

FrtmAy.—Another body of men, who have been
deprived of the means of subsistence by the closing of
the mills, namely, the overlookers of power-looms, have
just published an address, in which they throw themselves
upon the sympathy of the public. Yesterday afternoon
the throstle spinners had a meeting at the Marsh. The
members of this branch of the cotton trade are almost in
a state of destitution. In conclusion, the speaker urged
upon his hearers to be united amongst themselves, and
to observe the law. The meeting then dispersed.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT (THIS DAY).

OLD COURT.

;Before Mr. Justiceeresswell and Mr. Justice Williams.)

LIBEL.

A respectably attired, gentlemanly-looking man,
named Wade Meara, surrendered to take his trial on
a charge of unlawfully, wickedly, and maliciously writ-
ing, printing, and publishing a false libel, containing
matters concerning the Hon. Craven Fitzhardinge
Berkeley, M.P.

Mr. Clarkson, who appeared on behalf of the prisoner,
said the prisoner was quite ready to admit his guilt, and
that there was no foundation whatever for the imputa-
tions which it contained.

The Attorney-General said the libel reflected upon
the character of ladies of high rank and station in society
whose reputations were without a blemish ; but, since
the prisoner had evinced the utmost contrition for his
conduct, there was no desire on the part of the prosecu-
tion to press for judgment.
Mr. Justice Cresswell thought the ends of justice
would be amply served if the prisoner entered into his
own recognisance in 1,0001., to appear when called upon
to receive judgment, and to keep the peace towards all
her Majesty's subjects for the next five years.
The prisoner gave the required security, and was
discharged.

SPATE OF TRADE.

(Front the Manchester Guardian of this day.)
,eI4XCRESTER, Oct. 28.—Throughout the present week
ur market has been much mere inanimate, and the busi-
;eBB effected a great deal smaller than in the previous
eek• The fact is, that transactions of last week reached
anuch larger aggregate amount than was then supposed ;
e_ the buyers have, therefore, fewer orders to give eut.
auftton, except in the poorest sorts, is dearer than it was
eirtoight ago. It is the very great proportion of rub-
ti,Bl,l:heici in Liverpool that supports prices under a dimi-
Fuing consumption and a tight money market. With
A:vourable weather we have promise of a large crop from
mterica• Prices were rather lower at the last dates.
oney matters were difficult ; 11 to 2 per per cent, per
fah being paid for loans, and two or three failures had
ceorred.
iThe turn-outs at Preston and Wigan con-
It:llse without any appearance of a settlement. At
all the mills (except two or three not in the
"'") are now at a stand ; and at Burnley the general
cessation took place last night.
13114-I)PoRD, Oct. 27.—W00l : The business doing is
effeeececl, inglY meagre, and sales in quantity cannot be
‘ed• .Noils and brokes without change. Yarns
8 e spinners are doing a very limited business in the
ty:001 trade. Pieces : Diminished production is certainly,
d.ll,ing on the stocks in the market, for without this ju-
iitiet°llB course they would have been augmented to an
ja"Wise extent ; but with the present marked caution it
thnet improbable their value will be maintained, and at
turn of the year activity may prevail.
l'iorririGHAN Oct. 27.—There are many buyers here,
deZeia.ll37 Americans, but either from a want of confi-
-1 oe in the future, or the expectation of goods being
Pr„er in price ey thanes yet made but few pur
,-'es. We have no gto report in the price of

t .'"'ICESTER, Oct. 27.—Our market, after having been
tl/110 Years attainin its receded'cuminating point, has, wlithin
a fe last fortnight, rapidly ; more, however, from
;ear of a great re-action in the material than from any
etual present cause, stocks on hand being unusually
vi,,ght• Under this influence, worsted yarns have given

PRESTON.

FRlDAY.—Another body of men, who have been
deprived of the means of subsistence by the closing of
the mills, namely, the overlookers of power-looms, have
just published an address, in which they throw themselves
upon the sympathy of the public. Yesterday afternoon
the throstle spinners had a meeting at the Marsh. The
members of this branch of the cotton trade are almost in
a state of destitution. In conclusion, the speaker urged
upon his hearers to be united amongst themselves, and
to observe the law. The meeting then dispersed.

RAILIVAI7 INTELLIGENCE.

DEMERARA RAILWAY.
The half•yearly meeting of this company was held
yesterday at the London Tavern. Sir J. R. Carmi-
chael in the chair.

Mr. W. B. Cole, the secretary, read the report. It
stated that " ➢lr. Cameron, the newly-appointed general
manager, arrived in the colony in June last, and to him
was entrusted the important duty of inspecting the
several routes which had been suggested for continuing
the line to Mahaica ; and in making his report thereon
he considered it desirable to submit a new route, by
which the large bridge over the Mahaica Canal might
be dispensed with, the radius of the curve considerably
enlarged, and the terminus placed at the foot of the Ma-
haica Bridge, in the centre of the estates on the creek,
on the high road to Berbice, and at a convenient dis-
tance from several populous villages in the neighbour-
hood. Under these circumstances, the directors re-
commend—

" 1. That the line now proposed by Mr. Cameron be
adopted, and that the works be forthwith commenced,
providing the colonial legislature approve of the same.
" 2. That the sum of 20,0001. be borrowed under the
authority of ordinance No. 17, 1853, which is entitled
' An ordinance to guarantee interest, not exceeding 51.
per cent, per annum, upon any sum not exceeding
20,0001., to be expended upon the completion of the rail-
way from Belfield to the village of Mahaica.'
"The capital account shows that 175,000 i. was paid
by the proprietors of o.uginal stock, 18,0001. on prefer-
ence shares, and that the company have power to bor-
row 102,0001., together 295,000/. of which 37,0001. has
not been exercised. The expenditure amounted to the
Ist October to 223,4761., leaving 5001. towards the sink-
ing fund for redemption of mortgage, and a nominal
balance of 71,024/. It is estimated that the total cost
of completing the railway to Mahaica will be 253,0111.,
leaving a balance of 41,9881. to the credit of the autho-
rised capital of 295,0001."

The Ch AIRMAN moved the adoption of the report.
Arr. Davis seconded the adoption of the report, which
was agreed to.

The meeting was then made special, and the directors
were authorised to raise 2,0001. 01, Lunn guniattLeta in-
terest at 5 per cent. per annum, by the colonial govern-
ment of British Guiana.

The CHAIRMAN stated that they did not wish to force
the loan on the market, but they would submit it to
public tender, and he had no doubt that sonic of tho
assurance companies would take it up.
A vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the pro-
ceed

ONE STEP IN ADVANCE.-It is one of the happy re-
sults of the cessation of transportation to this colony
that instructions have been given to pull down the gal-
lows at Launceston. Facing the river, the first object
which met the stranger's eye was the permanent gal-
lows, a substantial affair, built up with bricks and
stone, and having a huge beam securely let into the
walls ; altogether designed for any amount of service.

GERMANY.

A letter from Berlin, of the 25th, announces
that Prince Adalbert of Prussia had returned there
from the journey which he had taken to St. Peters-
burgh.
The Zeit and other Berlin journals state that
the Belgian commercial treaty question has been
postponed to a later term, and that the principal
difficulty is to discover new principles for such
treaty, as the unfortunate rejection of the originally
projected change in the tariff on iron—that is, the
rejection of the reductions proposed by Prussia--
has entailed a change in the plan.
A decree of the Nassau Government forbids the
purchase of potatoes by owners of distilleries. In-
fringement of this decree will entail confiscation of
the quantities purchased, and a fine of one florin
per cent. The Board of Industry at Aix-la-Cha-
pelle, in accord with the Town Council, have peti-
tioned the Government to forbid the exportation of
rye and shell seed ; and further, to make over to
the Corporation a large quantity of meal now in
the military storehouses, on promise of repayment
in kind after next harvest.

His Highness the Duke of Saxe Coburg has
given his assent to the establishment of a Bible
Society at Coburg ; and also, to the proposition
for an annual collection being made in all Evan-
gelical churches in the duchy for the furtherance
of the same on the anniversary of the Reformation.
The subjects of the Pasha of Egypt who study
